THEY INJURE CHILDREN.
Ordinary Cathartics and Pills and
Harsh Physic Cause Distress
ing Complaints.

You cannot be over-careful in the Sc
lection of medicine for children. Only
the very gentlest bowel medicine should
ever be given, except in emergency
cases. Ordinary pills, cathartics anC
purgatives are apt to do more harm
than good. They cause gripping, nausea
and other distressing after-effects thai
are frequently Notwithstanding and &
life-lasting annoyance.
We personally recommend and guar
antee Rexall Orderlies as the safest anC
most dependable remedy for constipa
ton and associate bowel disorders. We
have such absolute faith in the virtues
of this remedy that we sell it on oul
guarantee of money back in every in
stance where it fails to give entire sat
isfaction, and we urge all in need OF
such medicine to try it at our risk
Rexall 0rderlies contain an entirely
new ingredient which is odorIess, taste
less and colorless. AS all active agent
it embraces the valuable qualities OF
the best known intestinal regulator
tonics.
Rexall Orderlies are eaten like candy.
They are particularly prompt and
agreeable in action, may be taken al
any time, day or night; do not cause
diarrhea, 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 a positive and
regulative tonic upon the relaxed mus.
cular coat of the bowel and its dry
mucous lining; remove irritation, over
come weakness, tone and strengthen
the nerves and muscles, and restore the
bowels and associate organs to more
vigorous and healthy activity.
Rexall Orderlies completely relieve
constipation, except when of a surgical
character. They also tend to overcome
the necessity of constantly taking lax.
atives to keep the bowels i'm normal
condition.
There is really no medicine for this
purpose so good as Rexall Orderlies, es.
pecially for children, aged and delicate
persons. They are prepared in tablet
form, in two sizes of packages: IL tab
lets 10 cents, and 80 tablets % cents.
Remember you can obtain Rexall
Remedies in Yale only at our store

and was graduated from the CoiuniDIa
college law school at New YORK IN
1869. He was mayor OF Mineral
Point in 1877-78, chairman OF the

that he will be able to furnish bail.
The friends of Mr.. Spensley are of
the opinion that he will fight the case
to the bitter end.

CHAPTER x.
A Picture of Poverty.

Love may choose for its temple
A pile of rough-hewn stone,
And. by its presence, make
The rude habitation noble.
No. 3. Paradise Alley did not in ap-
pearance or real comfort correspond
with its somewhat alluring title.
Paradise Alley was narrow. dingy
end dirty The houses were squalid,
its windows were small and Opaque
with dust. its doors rickety and finger
worn, and there was an air of poverty
and ceaseless, joyless toll and suffer
ing clinging to every one.
Number two was no exception to the
,Ieful rule, although it bore by way
e advertisement and ornament bril-
..ssntly painted signboard on its
ground floor window, which announced
to all who cared to know that Samuel
Growls resided there, and did repairs
neatly and quickly.
In addition to the signboard there
were curtains, dingy and threadbare
lis true but still curtains. to the WIN
dow and a small bird, naturally of a
yellow cast of eountenance but rem
dered dingy and gray by the influences
Of his paradisiacal surroundings, twit-
tered in a cage suspended from the
curtain pole.
There was the glimmer OF fire
penetrating the curtains, and although
number two. though miserable. enough
In all conscience. looked the cleanest
and most habitable of all the houses.
The spirit of Christmas had pene
trated even Paradise Alley. and Old
Sam. as be trotted beneath Its en-
