The thought worried him, and more
than once he was on the point of
seeking out Henry Telford, and ask
ing how things were going, but before
he could finally nerve himself to make
the inquiry, he received note asking
him to call.
Telford's face frightened as Haver-

had been exchanged.

SO many of the ills of women are
due to habitual constipation, probably
because of their false modesty on the
subject, that their attention cannot be
too strongly called to the importance
of keeping the bowels open. 1t Is
always important to do that, regard
less of the sex, but it is especially
important in women.
From the time the girl begins to
menstruate until mentsruation ceases
she has always vastly better prospects
of coming through healthy if she
watches her bowel movements. If you
find yourself constipated, with bad
breath, pimply complexion, headaches,
belching gas and other symptoms
of Indigestion and constipation, take
