End Bowel Misery
with a 'Cascaret'
Never any Headache, Biliousncss, In
digestion. or Constipation-No
More miserable days after this.

This is tn, day Of the gentle in
medicine. The cathartic pill is old
fashioned Salts and castor oil belong
to Grandmother time. The modern
doctor deals mildly. Cascarets are ef-
iectiye, yet gentle They don't irrl-
,ate or grippe They don't, like ca
thgrtics, vase the digestive fluids.
Cascarets 90 only what some foods
will do, what some fruits will do,
what exercise does for the bowels
Their action Is natural not artifi-
ciaL II you live outdoors, exercise
a great deal and avoid rich foods,
you don't need them. Otherwise you
do.
The most helpful laxative ever de-
vised is Cascarets. They are candy
tablets, pleasant TO take. Then,
they are convenient The ten-cent
oox fits the vest pocket or the lady's
purse. That is a vital point. The
time to take a laxative is the minute
you suspect that you need it, Don't
wait till you get home; don't wait till
night one Cascaret taken any time,
makes you feel great and they cost
only 1Oc per box.

1T IS CRIMINAL TO NEGLECT
THE SKIN AND HAIR

Think of the suffering entalled by
neglected skin troubles - mental be-
cause of disfguration, physical be-
cause Of pain. Think Of the pleasure
of clear skin, soft, white hands, and
good hair. These blessings, so essen
tial TO happiness and even success in
life, are often only a matter Of little
thoughtful care in the selection of ef-
fectiye remedial agents. Cuticura
Soap and Ointment do so much for
poor compilations, red, rough hands,
and dry, thin and falling hair and cost
so little. that II is almost criminal not
to use them. Although Cuticura Soap
and Ointment are sold everywhere, a

ton, will secure a liberal sample Of

been one of the most consistent club
bers In the McGraw ranks. He is now
hitting 1874, Chief Myers being the
only Giant with a higher average.
Among the National league regulars
Fletcher stands fifth.
As base runner Fletcher fits In
we'll with the other speed boys who
compose McGraw's team. He has
stolen twelve bases, but has not taken
part In near as many games as De
vore, Snodgrass and the other men
much higher up. In many OF Fletch-
er's games he played only the last
few innings. while In others he acted
only as a pinch runner.
Fletcher was procured by the Giants
in the spring of 1909 from the Dallas
(Tex.) league club. The youngster
made such big impression on Nc
Graw when the Giants we're training
In the Lone Star state that he was
