Travellers Tales

Before Gil Stout came west to as
sist the government in running it's
department of justice, he was a little
boy. It seems strange that the chief
deputy u. S. marshal should have
ever been a little boy, but nevertheless
he was-but that was in the days be-
| fore he got to be big Elk and work
with his colleague Wood in getting out
the programmes for the Elkdom ini-
tiation stunts.
Stout had a sister and there is
nothing strange about his having a
sister The strange thing was about
the sister, and not her relationship
to the deputy marshal.
/ bounced into the office of the
United States Marshal this morning
and there sat Gil reading letter from
his sister. II was just after he had
finished making his regular morning
call over the telephone to his best lady
friend, and he was in the best Of
spirits.
II greet you again and again" said
Gill as I bounced into one of the
chairs with ''U. S. carved on the
back of the thing.
"Just got letter here from my sis
ter. You know / have got one Of the
finest little sisters that ever lived.

Parliament is behind this great
housing scheme, and the rent of the
model houses is fixed by act of that
body. The houses are to vary in an
nual rentals from $3.50 to $500. More
OF the houses will rent for $3.50 than
at a higher price.
Thomas A. Edison is. confident that
his poured concrete house will soon
lend itself to the extensive develop
ment Of just such great housing
schemes as that in London. The men

BOOM FOR THE STATE.

The northern central part of the
state is likely to profit most this year
BY railway extension-with the pos
Iible exception OF parts Of oliver and
Mercer counties through the extension
by the N. p. north of Mandan.
But that part OF the state between
Fargo and Minot, between Drake and
Devils Lake and surrounding terri
.ory is TO be most directly benefited.
The Great Northern will resume
work early on the Fargo Minot cut

which has for the greater part been

The extension Of the 500 from Drake
via Devils Lake to Medford will be
bf great benefit to wide section OF
the state. McHenry, Benson, Pierce
and Ramsey counties will profit es-
pecialiy.
There is also some talk Of more

the N. P. from Esmond to strike the
present Great Northern main line al

Railroad construction work will
make things lively in that territory
and there will probably be several

CHILDREN INJURED
Ordinary cathartics and Pills and
Harsh Physie Cause Distress

Ordinary cathartics and Pills and
Harsh physie Cause Distress
ing Complaints.
You cannot be over-carefiil in the
selection OF medicine for children. Only
the very gentlest bowel medicine
should ever be given, except in en-
Urgency cases. Ordinary pills, cathar-
tics and purgatiyes are apt to do more
harm than good. They cause gripping,
nausea and other distressing after
effects that are frequently health
destroying and a life lasting annoy
ance.
We personally recommend and
guarantee Rexail orderlies as the
safest and most dependable remedy
for constipation and associate bowel
disorders We have such absolute
faith in the virtues Of this remedy
that we sell it on our guarantee Of
money back in every instance where
it fails to give entire satisfaction, and
we urge all in need OF such medicine
to try it at our risk.
Rexall Orderlies are eaten like
candy. They are particularly prompt
and agreeable in action, may be taken
at any time, day or night: do not
cause diarrhoea, nausea, gripping. ex-
cessive looseness or other undesirable
effects. They have very natural ac-
ton upon the glands and organs with
which they come in contact, act
as a positive and regulative tonic
upon the relaxed muscular coat of
the bowel and its dry mucous lin
ing; remove irritation, overcome
weakness, tone and strengthen the
nerves and muscles, and restore
the bowels and associate organs to
more vigorous and healthy activity
Rexall Orderlies completely relieve
constipation, except when of surgi-
cal character. They also tend to over
come the necessity of constantly TAX
ing laxatives to keep the bowels in
normal condition. Two sizes of pack
ages, 10 cents and 25 cents Remem-
