Laxative Sent
 Free to Try

It may be taken for granted that there is no family of any size that goes very long without needing lax ative. If you don't know of a good laxative, or the laxative you are using is losing its effect, we want to call your attention to Dr. CaldwelPs Syrup Pepsin, which thousands of families are using successfully.
 We have scores of letters from moth CTS, and scores from prominent men saying they are using it personally and giving it to their families. men like Mir. c. K. Smith of the Traffic Clearing House, Pine Bluff, Ark, and MT. George B. Turner, lawyer of Harlan, Ky The thousands of mothers who use 1t them- selves and give it to their children would take too much space to mention.
 The reason they prefer Syrup Pepsin IS that 1t Is a mild, gentle laxative tonic that does not gripe-effective and yet so mild that babies can take it. It's tonic ingredients invigorate the body and strengthen the stomach and bow el muscles so that they again do their work naturally. If you have been a victim of salts, pills and strong cathar- tics you will discard them when you once use Syrup Pepsin.
 You can buy fifty cent or one dol lar bottle of any druggist, but before doing so you may want to try 1t free. If so send your address to Dr. Cald- well and he will promptly forward a free sample bottle. Then, being con- vinced. do as others are doing and buy It In the regular way of your favorite druggist
 pr. Caldwell does not feel that the purchase of his remedy ends his obli- gation. He has specialized in stomach. liver and bowel diseases for over forty years and will be pleased to give the reader any advice on the subject free or charge All are welcome to write him. Whether for the medical advice or the free sample address him Dr. ". B Caldwell. 402 Caldwell building. Monticello III.

Gold on Capitol.

Two negroes became involved in a dis pute as to what the cap of the capitol dome was composed of, one contending that it was composed of gold, while the other insisted that if it was, he would be "up thar scrapin it of wid his pocket knife" The truth of the matter is, the cap is GOV. cred with gold leaf at cost of about S1000.00 and it's brilliance is freely remarked on. It is claimed it will last for centuries. We are considering the advisabil- ity of covering our residence with this substance. Bids are receiv- able accompanied by certified checks for $1OO.00 to insure good faith.

BATTLE CRY
FOR 1912
TIMES BUREAU,
AT STATE CAPITAL.

LIE
Indianapolis. Ind. Feb. I7-By this
time next week the state of Indiana
will have a new constitution, as far as
under the whip OF a democratic gov
ernor, to make one. And when the bill
for the new constitution passes the two
houses of the general assembly and is
signed by the governor the issue for
the campaign of 1912 will have been
drawn and the lines of battle laid
Undoubtedly the question that will
De uppermost In the campaign next
year In this state will be: shall Indi-
ana submit to having one man dictate
what her constitution shall be?
All other issues will be sfdetracked
and this one will come to the front and
remain there until the question has
been settled. This is the prediction
made today by one of the best posted
men In Indiana on political affairs. He
says the people will be called on to
determine whether they shall make
their own constitution or whether they
shall accept one ready made and hand
picked for them by one man.
Il look for the campaign of 1912 to
be the hardest fought campaign that
has ever been seen in the state" said
this man. 1T will be unique in the
history of the country. On one hand
will gather the democrats, or the bulk
of them, and along with them there
will be all of the radicals in the state.
The proposed new constitution provides
| for the recall, the referendum, the In
/ itiative, and all of the other socialistic
| ideas and isms that have been argued
| and preached in Indiana by the social
lists and other radicals for years. The
only radical idea that will be absent
from the new constitution will be state
wide prohibition of the liquor traffic.
The constitution will not contain a
word about that, and this fact is going
to cause the democrats a great deal OF
trouble in the next campaign when the
constitution will be the issue
Il predict that when the democrats
| of this state have framed their new
constitution and it is presented to the
| people at the next election, the very
| fact that they are playing to the radi-
Gals and socialists will cause the peo-
1 pie to take notice. and that there will
1 be such a resentment of the proposition
as will cause the conservative. patriot.
ic people of the state to rally under ar
anti-constitutfon banner and defeat ths
! proposition.
All else will be forgotten in the
campaign of 1912 in this state and tn,
question of the adoption of the consti
tuition will be the one issue on which
the people will divide. Undoubtedly tn,
present constitution ought to be re
vised. 1t is out of date in many re
