his latest impressions of the work of
Hampton institute and said that mo
race ever made such progress as the
negroes have in the last forty years. :
He had statistics showing that 745,000
farms in the South are controlled by
the negroes and that they own 245,-
000of them He had noticed a growing
sympathy among the white people of
the South for the negro and that the
whites all were the happier for it.
He believed that the colored people in
the South are now further advanced
than were the Scotch 200 years ago.

They Injure Children
Ordinary Cathartics and Pills
and Harsh Physic Cause
Distressing Complaints

You cannot be over-careful In the
selection of medicine for children. On
ly the very gentlest bowel medicine
should ever be given, except In emer-
gency cases. Ordinary pills, cathar-
tics and purgatives are apt to do more
harm than good. They cause gripping,
nausea and other distressing after
effects that are frequently health
destroying and life-lasting annoy
ance.
We personally recommend and
guarantee Rexail Orderlies as the
safest and most dependable remedy
for constipation and associate bowel
disorders. We have such absolute
faith in the virtues of this remedy
that we sell 1t on our guarantee OF
money back in every instance where
it fails to give entire satisfaction, and
we urge all in need of such medi-
cine to try 1t at our risk.
Rexall Orderlies contain an entire
tasteless and colorless. AS an active
agent, 1t embraces the valuable quail
tiles of the best known intestinal
regulator tonics. Rexall Orderlies
are eaten like candy. They are par
ticularly prompt and agreeable
in action, may be taken at any time,
day or night; do not cause diarrhoea,
nausea, gripping, excessive looseness
or other undesirable effects. They
have very natural action upon the
glands and organs with which they
come in contact, act as positive and
regulative tonic upon the relaxed
muscular coat of the bowel and its
dry mucous lining; remove irritation,
overcome weakness, tone and
strength the nerves and muscles, and
restore the bowels and associate or
gans to more vigorous and healthy ac-
tivity.
Rexall Orderlies completely relieve
constipation, except when of a surgi-
cal character. They also tend to ov-
ercome the necessity of constantly
taking laaxtives to keep the bowels
in normal condition.
There Is really no medicine for this
purpose 80 good as Rexall Orderlies,
especially for children, aged and deli
cate persons. They are prepared In
tablet form, in two sizes Of packages;
| IL tablets 10 cents, and SO tablets rs
cents. Remember you can obtain
Rexall Remedies in Skowhegan only
out our store,-The Rexall Store. The
F. w. Bucknam Drug Store.
