THE DOCTORS QUESTION
Some Advice Against the Use of Harsh
Purgatives and Physics.

A doctors first question when
consulted by patient is, Are your
bowels REGULAR" He knows that
SO per cent of illness is attended
with inactive bowels and torpid
liver. This condition poisons the
system with waste matter and
causes accumulation of gases which
must be removed through the
bowels before health can be re-
stored.
Salts, ordinary pills and cathartics
may be truly ikened to dynamite.
Through their harsh, irritating
action they force passage through
the bowels, causing pain and DAM
age to the delicate intestinal struct-
ure which weakeus the whole system,
and at best only produces temper
airy relief. The repeated use of
such treatments causes chronic irri-
tation of the stomach, and bowels,
dries and hardens their tissues,
deadens their nerves, stiffens their
muscles and generally brings about
an injurious habit which sometimes
has almost, if not fatal results.
We have a pleasant and safe rem
edy for constipation and bowel dis
orders in general. We are so certain
of its great curative value that we
promise to return the purchasers
money in every case where it fails
to produce entire satisfaction. This
remedy is called RexalI Orderlies.
We urge you to try them at our
entire risk.
-Rexall Orderlies are eaten like
candy, they act quietly and have a
soothing, Strengthening, healing,
regulatlve influence on the entire
intestinal tract. They do not purge,
grippe, cause nausea, fatulence, ex-
cesslve looseness, diarrhoea or other
annoying effects, and they may be
taken at any time without inconven-
fence.
Rexall Orderlies overcome the
dragging habit and safely remedy
constipation and associate ailments,
whether acute or chronic, except in
surgical cases. They are especially
good for children, weak persons or
old folks. Price, So tablets rs cents,
and II tablets 10 cents. Remember

Various Localities Visited Estimated

Washington Nov. 11-At S:35
Wednesday night President Taft
completed his first long tour of the
United States as president. So far as
Mr. Taft is concerned he is satisfied
with the result, of his trip. He has
come into contact with the people of
the Middle and Far West and, while
some of his receptions have been of a
rather unfriendly character, he has
been able to present his views to the
people. -. .... =
The Taft tour has carried the pres
adent over 1875 miles by rail and
water and over 900 miles by auto
and practically 500 by stage or horse
drawn vehicle. It has cost the United
States $4,000, which will come out of
the fund appropriated by congress for
his travelling expenses. The president
has made upward of 800 speeches from
platforms, rear vestibules of his car
and open air.
Entertainments Cost $3,ooo,0o0.
The cost to the various localities
that have entertained" him is very
large. A conservative estimate is
$3,000,000. For the little entertain
ment at Juarez, where he was the
guest of the president Of Mexico for
that little dinner" the cost is de.
clared to have been $500,000.
Ten, SIS and $40 plate was
charged each one that attended the
several dinners given the president,
while at Los Angeles they struck the
record of high figures, $25 a plate.
Mr.. Taft himself believes his trip
through the South has gained him
satisfaction and has made him many
friends among the people.
He considers that he is now in
touch with the several elements in his
own party and will be better prepared
to deal with all of the problems that
will come before him this winter dur
ing the session of congress.
Has Many Souvenirs of Trip.
The president returns with all man.
ner Of souvenirs of the trip, ranging
from a golf trophy to great seal of
city" in solid gold. If Mrs. Taft
wants to know what happened on the
trip and what was most notable at
any of the banquets she has only to
rummage through the trophies which
clutter up the baggage car and she
can get line on it.
The presidents guards estimated
the number of persons he has talked
to on the present trip at 100000.
The GOODNESS of his greetings in the
West has been offset by the warmth
of tho greeting in the South and his
friends assert that. there was no rea-
son to consider the Western recep-
ton unfriendly, rather they charac-
terize it as Educational" and as serv-

HURRlES TO ST. PETERSBURG
Cholera Outbreak Alarms Russian
Royal Family.

Odessa, Nov. 11.-A virulent out
break of cholera at Simferopol has
driven the Russian royal family from
the imperial estate at I4ividia and
hurried them north to St. Petersburg.
Thirty-6ve deaths have already
been recorded in Simferopol and the
hopes are slim for the checking of
the outbreak.
Because Of the presence of the
royal family in the vicinity the sani-
tary commissioners made an unprece-
dented effort to stamp out the disease
as soon as it was discovered. They
are unable, however, to impress the
inhabitants of the Crimean villages
with the seriousness of the situation
and an enormous death roll is expect
ed before the plague passes.

Hand Made Book CoOers of antique DelOet

T HERE is nothing more interesting
for the amateur needlewoman to
employ herself upon, either as e
than the handsome book covers which
are such an addition to the furnishings
of room. These book covers need to
be made of very handsome material and
are not at all worth doing unless the
fabrics used are rich in color and suit
are required and two sorts of material
may be used for one cover, so that it is
possible to use bits of velvet and bro
cade which are unusually handsome to
great advantage. In the book covers
also is offered an opportunity to use
handsome old embroideries on velvet
and satin and antique brocades or the
wonderful worn velvets that have
served as priests yestments or altar
clothes. In fact, the idea of making
such covers is to display to the besc
advantage small pieces of fabric whose
beauty renders them worthy OF place
among works of art.
The great advantage in making these
elaborate book covers for girls who
have not much time to give to handi-
work is that they may be sewed on
the machine, and indeed are quite as
well made this way as by hand.
The covers are made. of course, to fit
some special book, but a standard size
is usually chosen, so that the book may
be changed as desired. Linen is used
for the lining, or some similarly stout
and firm fabric. and this forms also the
two end pockets into which the covers
of the book are slipped. One of the
simplest sorts of covers to make is that
which has sides of brocaded velvet and
back of plain. the whole being bound
with gold galloon- Only tarnished old
gold braid is permissible for this use.
New gilt looking braid would look
tawdry. The side covers are, for in
stance, of dark olive green velvet bro
cade, and the back is of a plain velvet
of the same color. The braid is stitched
around the edges of the book and down
