we owe to the brave men who -offeree

Their thinning ranks indicate that it

GIRLS "AOOFlEG'
M IT TO FRISCO

Miss Molli Dugan and Miss Daisy
Myrs, scarce out of their teens, ar
rived in Canon City on Thursday over
the ties and ballasted track of the D..
& r. c. They didn't do it out of neces-
sity but rather out of choice. They have
been traversing the country in just
that manner since August 6, 1911.
On that date they left New York,
having planned an overland trip to
Frisco. They are not doing it on bet
or through any publicity it might give
them. In fact they begged the writer
not to say anything but he, heartless
wretch, just couldn't help it. They did
not stare dead broke either, like
some of the globe trotters do but they
are working their way as much as
possible. They have set no time limit
and are making the journey by slow
stages.
They left New York over the Penn
sylvania tracks and followed them to
st. Louis. From st. Louis to Kansas
City they used the cleaning rails If
the Wabash for their guiding star and
from Kansas City to Denver the steel
threads of the Rock Island pointed out
the way. From Denver to Salt Lake
they will follow the d. & r. C. and
from their into Frisco the Western
Pacific roadbed will feel the tramp of
their feet
Miss Dugan acted as spokesman for
the couple and she stated that never
since they started had they met such
unreserved and solicitious Hospitality
as they had found in Colorado. They
have. of course, met many experiences
of thrilling nature but are still as
happy and as well as ever and hope to
remain so until they reach the coast.
They do newspaper work and maga-
zine soliciting to earn their way.

AVOID HARSH DRUGS IN n
Many Cathartics Tend to Cause Injury
to the Bowels.


If you are subject to constipation,
you should avoid strong drugs and
cathartics. They only give temporary
relief and their reaction is harmful
and sometimes more annoying than
constipation. They in no way effect
cure and their tendency is to weaken
the already weak organs with which
they come in contact.
We honestly believe that we have
the best constipation treatment ever
devised. Our faith in it is so strong
that we sell it on the positive guar
antee that it shall not cost the user a
cent If it does not give entire salts
faction and completely remedy con-
stipation. This preparation is called
Rexall orderlies. These are prompt,
soothing, and most effective in az
tion.. They are made of recent chem
ical discovery. Their principal ia
gredient is odorless, tasteless and
colorless. Combined with other we'll
known ingredients, long established
for their usefulness in the treatment
OF constipation, it forms a tablet
which is eaten like candy. They may
be taken at any time, either day Or
night, without fear of their causing
any inconvenience whatever. They do
not grippe. purge. nor cause neasea.
They act without causing any pain or
excessive looseness of the bowels.
They are ideal for children, weak.
delicate persons. and aged people, as
we'll as for the most hearty person.
They come in three size packages.

HOW PIERCE COUNTY MEN
VOTED ON E|GHT-HOUR BILL

Eight Hour Day Law, according to
Pres. Charles r. Case of the State
Federation of Labor in his report
to the labor men at their meet
ing last week at Spokane.
The fish and fruit cannery men
wanted their women exempted
from the law. The labor men did
not oppose exempting the fruit
Gamers, but did oppose vigorously
the exempting of girls in the fish
industry.
Canning fish, among all the in
dustries of the state, is most un-
suitable for women" said Case.
Slipped 1t Through
The legislative jockeys got busy,
tackled the fruit and fish exemp-
tions in one amendment, and won.
The progressives, however, tackled
on an amendment saying that If
the courts threw out this exemp-
ton the rest of the bill was to
stand.
The local men who favored let
ting girls in fruit and fish can
neries work over time were:
McNEELEY, TEATS, TAYLOR.
Those who favored an eight
hour day for all women workers:
DOW, McQUESTEN, JAMIE.
son, SHUT, DAVIS, CAMERON,
THOMPSON, LAUBE.
Those who opposed any eight
hour law at all:
None from Pierce county.
Incidentally the bill passed the
house, only 27 out of SO opposing.
Tomorrow the Times will sum
up how Pierce county men voted
ON progressive legislation from
Cases report.
