cause it contains a new Sherlock

CHILDREN INJURED
Ordinary Cathartics and Pills and
Harsh Phisics Cause Distressing
Complaints.

You can not be over careful in
the selection Of medicine for
children. Only the very gentlest
bowel medicine should ever be
given except in emergency cases.
Ordinary pills, carthartics and
purgatives are apt to do more
harm than good. They may cause
gripping, nausea and other dis
tressing after effects that are Of
ten Notwithstanding.
We personally recommend and
guarantee Rexall Orderlies as the
safest and most dependable rem
edy, which we know, for consti.
patton and associate bowel disor-
ders. We have such absolute
faith in the virtues of the rene
dy that we sell it on our guaran-
ty of money back in every inst
ance where it fails to give entire
satisfaction, and we urge all in
need of such remedies to try it
at our risk.
Rexall Orderlies are eaten just
like candy, and are particularly
prompt and agreeable in action;
may be taken any time, day or
night; do not cause diarrhOea,
nausea, gripping, excessive lose
ness or undesirable effects; they
have a very desirable but posit-
i've action upon the organs with
which they come in contact, APP
parently acting as regulative
tonic upon the relaxed muscular
coat of the bowel, thus overcom-
ing weakness, and aiding to re-
store the bowels to more vigor-
Gus and healthy activity.
Rexall OrdeIies commonly com
pletely relieve constipation, ex-
cept of course when of surgical
character. They also tend to
overcome the necessity of con-
stantly taking laxatives to keep
the bowels in normal condition.
Three sizes of packages; 10 cents
Is cents and so cents. Remem-
Der, you can obtain Rexall Rem
edies in Jefferson, only at our
store, the Rexall Store, by W. j,

ed 70 come to the home OF Mrs. @.
W. Lathrop at 500 pm. On be-
ing welcomed he and the family
sat by the warm firesidc, enjoying
a good family chat, after about one
half hour music sounded forth IN
an adjoining room. The door was
opened and such magnificent
sight as greeted the eye! The room
was elegantly decorated with IVY.
circling around the walls OF the
room the Epworth League stood
with bowed head, laying on the
floor before them, enclrcllng the
room were branches Of pine, dot
ted here and there with cotton, a
magnificent bower was erected, on
which was hung: Epworth League"
with the emblem, in letters Of sill

ny sang. "There Shall be Showers
OF Blessings" after which the pas.
tor was led into that beautiful
room. dimly lighted with Japanese
lanterns. and placed in a chair in
the middle OF the room. What was
to happen, he knew not But he
soon had some idea when from some
mysterious source over his head
bag bursted and scores of little bags
rained upon him. There were "the
showers of blessings" A counting
showed there to be a magnificent
sum of money. 1t was nigh impos-
sihle for him to make the due re-
marks, and as he sat there in be-
wilderment, many other presents
were gratuitously presented. most
pleasant evening was spent. Games
and the merry chatter of happy

NO VACATION.
viii Continue Right Through the
Holidays.

The Tyler Commercial College
of Tyler Texas, has arranged this
year, as usual, to accommodate
all Of it's students who desire to
continue their studies during
the Christmas holidays. Those
who especially desire to return
to their homes to spend Xmas,
will be excused Friday evening
Dec. 22nd, and VIII be expected
to take up their work again on
or before Jan. 1st 1912. Usually
about 400 students remain and
work right through the holidays.
New students may enroll at
any time during the Xmas holi-
days. We advise all to enroll as
soon as possible; there is moth
ing to be gained by waiting until
Januay 1st. We have no term
openings; our school is the same
one day as another, just like a
bank. railroad or business houes.
The students work is princi-
pally all individual instruction,
and each and every student is
pushed each day to his full ca
pacity. Slow students are not
over-crOwded trying to keep up
with fast ones, and fast students
are not held back and discourag-
ed on account of slow ones, 1t
would really be better to enroll
and get started before the big
January rush.
Upon arriving in our city, go
direct to the College, where you
will be given prompt attention
and choice of nice boarding place
with private family, at a cost of
from $3.50 to $3.50 per week for
board and lodging.
Tuition for complete, unlim-
tied life's scholarship of book
keeping, shorthand, or telegra-
ply is $50; any two courses com
bined S95. If you have not read
our large beautifully illustrated
catalog, write for one. 1t will
give you full particulars and de-
tailed information regarding
