Many have the idea that anything

but It is only the article that Is

An example of the big success of a

that has grown up for Cascarets

ord Is the result of great merit sue
cessfully4 made known through per
sistent advertising and the mouth-to
mouth recommendation given Cas-
carrots by its friends and users.
Like all great successes. trade pi'
rates prey on the unsuspecting pub

in appearance to Cascarets. Care
should always be exercised in pur'
chasing well advertised goods. espe-
cially an article that has a national
sale like Cascarets. Do not allow q

STUBS DENIES 1T.
Says He Had Nothing to Do With
Removal of Russ.

The people of Pittsburg are stirring
up quite a row on account of the re-
mova1 of Russell v. Russ, head of the
Pittsburg manual training normal
school. The board of regents removed
Russ for alleged incompetency, al
though he had been at the head of the
school ever since it's foundation, six
years ago. 1t was charged that Gov
ernor Stubbs was mixed up in the re-
moval some way and that the governor
and regents had determined to remove
every single member of the school fac
ulty who had tried to get the school
separated from the state normal school
during the last legislature.
Governor Stubbs denied that he had
had anything to do with the removal
and says he did not know that Russ
was out. He says he was not consult
ed by the regents about the removal
of Russ.
