Constipation
Cure Free

With the first signs of constipa-
ton you resort to the home methods
of relief, such as hot or cold water on
arising, lots of stewed fruit with your
breakfast, etc, but what do you do
when these fail?
The majority then start on salts and
purgative waters, then change to cathar-
tic pills, etc. II you have gone through
these various stages you know they were
all useless, so far as permanent results
go. Now you should try just once again,
but try. something practical and sensible,
a remedy made and intended for the pur-
pose you are trying to accomplish. Such
a remedy. as thousands can testify. is
DR.. Caldwelis Syrup Pepsin, which Is
guaranteed to be permanent in Its re-
suits. It's ingredients are such that by a
brief use OF II the stomach and bowel
muscles are trained to again do their

can do away with medicines OF all kinds.
That It will do this Mr.. G.. Y. Dodson Of
Sanville. Va. Will gladly attest. and so
will Mrs s. A. Hampton OF Portage o.

tinue to use II for a brief time until
cured. The directions are simple and the
dose is small It is pleasant tc the taste
does not grippe and Is promptly effective,
and these statements are guaranteed or
money will be refunded.

tury old and Is personally taken by
more druggists than any other similar

THE TOWN PHILOSOPHER TALKS

THE TOWN PHILOSOPHER TALKS
The Town Philosopher is gratificd
to see the excellent work which the
citizens Of this burg have done this
winter in keeping the sidewalks clear
Ct snow. Many a hustling business
man, who formerly grew poetic at
sight at rich fall of "the beautiful
now sizes the long handled shovel,
with "curses 9th loud and deep (as
the poet sings) and labors manfully
to do his share in the keeping of the
"city beautiful" We desire to utter
encomiums on such good work, and
hope that the weeds in summer may
share the same fate as the drifts in
winter. .E
While we are resting from our la
doris with the snow shovel, and
toasting our feet before the red glow
of tn anthracite, which is making us
poor at the pleasing rate of six fu |
pals per diem, we muse on the good
old days when county fairs were less
of tests of racing horses, and more Of
tests of raising the biggest and best
things from mothers preserves" to
the yearling steer. Those were the
days when the blue ribbon meant Lne
best ever, in that locality and a
county fair was the mecca for every
body in the country, OF course, we
sigh over the good old times and r.
member that we are now living in the
age of air ships and Merry Widow
hats, and ought not to expect q r.
turns ssto those primitive times.
90 90
But speaking of preserves makes
us think again of the prevailing hign
prices of the things we eat. Con-
gress is going to investigate. The
town philosopher will just offer this
to that august body as a suggestion.
Our population in this country has
more than doubled in few decades,
and the sources of production have
not kept pace with the population.
| We receive each year about million
immigrants from Europe, and not
one hunoreIh part OF them take 4R
the, Soil and become original produ-
GERS. The farming population is hu--
rying to the city and thereby ceasing
to become producers. The only cure
is for the farmers to raise more per
acre, the farm boy to stay on the
farm and the immigrant to be COM
PEELED to "go west" and settle on the
land. Then the peaceful crow OF the
cock will sound oftener through our
nation, the potato field flourish, and
No. hard reach thirty bushels to the
acre.
