THE MARRIAGE QUESTION

A couple of guests at the Walton
were seated in the lobby of the hoteI
the other day engaged in earnest
conversation upon the oft-discussed
question of marriage, says the
Duluth Tribune. One of them put
it this way:
Before mans married he's a
dude; after marriage he's subdued.
Before marriage he has no buttons
on his shirt, after marriage he has
no shirt at all. Before marriage he
swears that he would not marry the
best woman on earth; after marriage
he finds that he hasn't"
The other was not to be outdone.
He told this:
"A young doctor friend of mine
received letter from young wife
recently saying: Your medicine
has helped wonderfully. Three
weeks. ago | could not spank the
-.sxsf, and now | am able to thrash
5 husband. God bless you!'

"She is the sort who love once-for

It is well 10 stop a physical ailment

that is especially true of liver trouble,
which can eventually give rise TO so
many serious complications. Many
have liver trouble and imagine it is in
digestion, and hence take the wrong
remedy.
When the liver does not store up suf
ficient gastric juices il becomes sluggish.
and In this way disturbs the stomach
and bowels with which 1t is supposed
TO work in harmony. Then comes the
SaiiOW complexion, the ptmply face. the
dull pain in the forehead, the thinning
