''Sinbad" Goes Back To His
Prison Garden.

St. Paul, April, Love for his
little garden behind the prison walls,
where he WED with Luther Burbank
in raising strange cross-breeds of
fruit and vegetable, today impelled
Charles Parsons, otherwise known
as "Sinbad the Sailor" to return
voluntarily to the state penal insti-
tuition at Saltwater.
The aged man has been out of
prison on parole since Aug, l 1910,
whe,4 he was pardoned conditionally
for a murder committed in 1890
He had been so long in confinement
that he hardly knew what to do
when he was set free, and after
eight months of freedom his garden
and the simple life of a convict won
him back to the barred Enclosure.
He originally was sent up for life;
now he probably will stay there
till he dies.
Parsons had been fond of flowers
in boyhood, and at the prison he
was allowed to tend the wardens
garden He gradually developed
skill in grating and cross-breeding
plants and flowers. One of his crea-
tons was sort of lemon, which
weighed 48 ounces. 1t was a com
bination of lemon and grape fruit.
He also produced many other freaks
of vegetation. and his fame spread
all over the state. Gardeners and
horticulturists came far and near to
observe his methods. He gave
almost daily demonstrations. He
raised giant squashes by feeding
them with milk through a tube.

Oil For The Highways.

Atlant, April 6-The experiments
of using oil on roads, as a binder
and to keep down dust, tried out
last year in Fulton county under
U. S. government supervision. has
proven fairly successful, and Peach
tree Road, as well as some of the
other important thoroughfares, will
be oiled again this spring. That
the oil keeps down dust has been
unquestionably proven, while the
local experts are now inclined to
believe it makes the road better

tear of the rapidly moving automo.

THERE'S NO RISK.
IF This Medicine Does Not Benefit You
Pay Nothing.

Pay Nothing.
A physician who made a speciality
Of stomach troubles, particularly dys-
pepsia, after years of study perfected
the formula from which Rexa1 Dys-
pepsia Tablets are made.
Our experience with Rexall Dyspep-
sia Tablets leads us to believe them to
be the greatest remedy known for the
relief of acute indigestion and chronic
dyspepsia. Their ingredients are sooth-
ing and healing to the infamed men,
branes of the stomach. They are rich
in pepsin, one of the greatest digestive
aids known to medicine. The relief
thew afford is almost immediate. Their
use with persistency and regularity for
a short time brings about cessation
Of the pains caused by stomach disor-
ders.
Rexa1l Dyspepsia Tablets will insure
healthy appetite, aid digestion and pro-
mote nutrition. AS evidence of our sin
cere faith in RexalI Dyspepsia Tablets,
we ask you to try them at our risk.
If they do not give you entire satisfac-
ton, we will return you the money
you paid US for them, without ques-
ton or formality. They come in
three sizes, prices 25 cents, so cents
and $10O. Remember, you can OBJ
tain them only at-The Rexan Store.
