Constipation brings many ailments in its
train and is the primary cause of much
sickness. Keep your bowels regular mad
am, and you will escape many of the all
ments to which women are subject. Con
stpation is a very simple thing, but like
many simple things, it may lead to serious
consequences. Nature often needs a little
assistance and when Chamberlain's Tablets
are given at the first Indication, much dis
tress and suffering may be avoided. Sold

For the Blues.

1t doesn't pay to frown
when you're blue;
You'd better exercise bit and fill your
lungs with air.
Don't sit down
And NOPE or grumble; if you do
Men may pity, but they'll leave YOU sit
ting there.
When the world has been unkind.
When life's troubles cloud your mind,
Don't sit down and frown, and sigh, and
moan and nope,
Take a walk along the square.
Fill your lungs with Gods fresh air
Then go whistling back to work and
smile again and hope

Many messages of congratula- ton today from persons in various parts of the world to Senor De La Bar ra express this sentiment.

 Diplomats and high officials of the government came in a steady stream today to bid farewell to the new n1in- ister, but a pathetic sidelight of the day was the fact that Senor De La, Barra was required to remain in al- most constant attendance by the bed- side of his 13 year old son, Francisco, who lay critically i'll.
 De La Barra's Mission Significant.
 Minister De La Barra's S mission to Mexico, in the face of, present condi- tions in that country, is regarded here as the most significant occurrence in the Mexican situation since Senor Ii- mantour, minister of finance, conferred in New York with Francisco Madero, Sr, and Gustavo A.

 While have no authority. to say that wool growers will not be given a hearing" said MT. Underwood, "it is my opinion that they might just az well make an assault upon Gibraltar as upon the house. We know now all the arguments that win be advanced against the revision of schedule K, but there is no question about what the house will dc. We will make our re- vision and send it to the senate, and whether it goes any further remains to be seen
