In the early settlement OF this

In this business when the boats
piled the Missouri river years ago,
He knew more OF the history and

as he was a close observer ca
all worthy occurrences.
Although Mr.. Flegar was not
of q very demonstrative disposi-
tion, yet, some OF the good deeds
he did were prompted by tender
heart. He lived close to nature
and his conversation often let the
fact be known that he revered
God and all his works. Yes, God
knew his inmost heart and he like
all humanity had faults but to eri
is human and to forgive is divine
His favorite song was alone
Sweet Home" He said those
words reminded him OF his child
hood home and also gave though,
OF future home where all of us
are travelling nearer each day.

WHY HESITATE?
An Offer That Involves no Risk for
Those Who Accept 1t.

We are so positive our remedy will
completely relieve constipation, no
matter how chronic it may be, that
we offer to furnish it free of all cost
if it fails.
Constipation is caused by weak
ness of the nerves and muscles of the
large instestines or descending colon.
To expect cure you must therefore
tone up and strengthen those organs
and restore them to healthier activ-
ity.
We want you to try Rexall Order
lies on our guarantee. They are eaten
like candy, and particularly ideal for
children. They act directly on the
nerves and muscles of the bowels
They have a neutral action on the
other organs or glands. They do not
purge or cause any Inconvenience
whatever. They will positively over
come chronic or habitual constipa-
ton and the myriads of associate or
dependent chronic ailments. Try
Rexall Orderlies at our risk. Two
sizes, Toe. and Csc. Sold only at our

Galveston. Oct. 22.-After five hours
in the sea facing death from sharks
and drowning. Andy Anderson, Dan.
ish. fireman from the British steam
ship Melton, was picked up 200 miles
of st. Vincent in the West Indies by
the steamship Nelisement, which ar.
rived in. port the other day. Ander-
son fell overheard from his vessel at
o'clock in the morning, without be-
Ing seen. Determined to make des-
perate fight, he stripped of his cloth
ing, but saved his. knife. He soon
found that sharks were after him and
he had to fight for his life. Knitting
the fish, Anderson, an expert swim
mer, managed to keep afloat until 8
a. M. when the lookout on the Nelise-
ment, which had run about forty
miles of it's course, sighted the man
in the sea. He was picked up and
taken aboard, and was found to be
literally SCARED from head to foot
with wounds inflicted by the fish. He
lost consciousness when taken from
the water, but now .is little the worse
for his terrible experience. At one
time, he said, he fought with q large
shark for twenty minutes, that seemed
nve hours. and stabbed the man.eater
twenty times before the shark gave
up the fight. After each struggle. An
derson would rest BY floating until
attacked again.
