More Money for Counties.

The two bills, the purpose of which
is to provide the counties with funds
wherewith to carry on the new work
un1oaded on them by the Territory,
were introduced by Rice. One is to
turn over all license fees of all kinds
to the county in which they are col
lected and within which the licenses
are to be operative. The other bill
gives to each county in which the same
are collected, all district court fines
and costs and forfeited bail money.
These bills, which turn over after
July l next some quarter -of million
dollars to the county treasures, have
been carefully drawn in the Attorney
Generals department and have not the
faulty phrasings which threw out bill
last session giving the counties a share
in these moneys. Both bills went on
special order of the day for today and
will not be printed.

NOT DRUGS
Food Did Il.

After using laxative and cathartic
medicines from childhood a case OF
chronic and apparently incurable con-
stipation yielded to the scientific food.
GrapeNuts, In a few days.
From early childhood suffered
with such terrible constipation that
had to use laxatives continuously 60
ing from one drug to another and suf.
fering more or less all the time.
"A prominent physician whom con.
suited told me the muscles Of the d.
gestive organs were partially par.
alyzed and could not perform their
work without help of some kind. so I
have tried at different times about
every laxative and cathartic known.
but found no help that was at all per.
manent. I had finally become discour.
aged and had given my case up as
hopeless when l began to use the pre-
digested food. Grape-Nuts.
although had not expected this
food to help my trouble, to my great
surprise Grape-Nuts digested imme-
diately from the first and In a few
days was convinced that this was
Just what my system needed.
THE bowels performed their func-
tons regularly and I am now com.
pletely and permanently cured Of this
awful trouble.
