Free lie 1t Fails
Your Money Back IF You Are
Not Satisfied With the Med
icine We Recommend.

We are so positive that our remedy
will permanently relieve constipation,
no matter how chronic it may be, that
we offer to furnish the medicine at our
expense should it fail tC produce salts
factory results.
1t is worse than useless to attempt to
cure constipation with cathartic drugs.
Laxatives or cathartics do much harm.
They cause a reaction, irritate and
weaken the bowels and tend to make
constitution more chronic. Besides,
their use becomes habit that is dan
gerous.
Constipation is caused by a weakness
of the nerves and muscles of the large
intestine or descending colon. To ex-
pect permanent relief yo'i must there
fore tone up and strengthen these or
gans and restore them to healthier
activity.
The discovery of the active principle
of our remedy involved the labor of
the worlds greatest research chemists.
AS an active agent it possesses the vaIu-
able qualities of the best known intes-
final tonics as well as being particu-
larly pleasant and prompt in its re
suits.
We want pou to try Rexall Orderlies
on our recommendation. They are ex-
ceedingly pleasant to take, being eaten
like candy, and are ideal for children,
delicate persons and old folks, as we'll
as for the robust. They act directly
on the nerves and muscles of the
bowels. They apparently have a neu-
tral action on other associate organs
or glands. They do not purge, cause
excessive looseness nor create any in
convenience whatever They may be
taken at any time, day or night They
will positively relieve chronic or habit
ual constipation, if not of surgical
variety, and the myriads of associate
or dependent chronic ailments, if taken
with regularity for a reasonable length
of time. They come in two sizes of
packages, Il tablets, 10 cents; SO tab
lets, Is cents. Sold in Topeka only at
our store-The Rexall Store. The Ros-
ser Drug Co., 523 Kansas avenue.

SPECIAL CONSERVATION MESSAGE

| think, to the belief that these
lands should pass rapidly into pri-
vate ownership, gave rise to the i'm
preston that the public domain was
legitimate prey for the INSCRIPTIONS,
and that it was not contrary to good
morals to circumvent land laws. This
suited in the passing of large areas
Of valuable lands and many of our
persons who felt little or no respon-
sibility for promoting the national
welfare through their development
The truth is that title to millions of
acres of public lands was fraudulent
ly obtained and that the right to re-
cover a large part of such lands for
the government long since ceased by
reason of statutes of limitations
There has developed in recent
years a deep concern in the public
mind respecting the preservation and
proper use of our natural resources.
This has been particularly directed
toward the conservation of resources
of the public domain. The problem is
how to utilize, how to conserve and
still to develop; for no sane person
can contend that it is for the COM
mon good that natures blessings are
only for unborn generations.
Among the noteworthy reforms
initiated by my distinguished pre-
decessor were the vigorous prosecu-
ton of land frauds and the bringing
to public attention of the necessity
for preserving the remaining public
domain from further spoilation, for
the maintenance and extension of our
forest resources and for the enact
ment of laws amending the obsolete
statutes so as to retain control over
