THE SAFE LAXATIVE
FOR ELDERLY PEOPLE

Most elderly people are more or
less troubled with a chronic, per-
sistent constipation, due largely to
lack of sufficient exercise. They ex-
perience difficulty in digesting even
light food, with a consequent belching
OF stomach gases, drowsiness after
eating, heada che and feeling of lassi-
tude and general discomfort.
Doctors advise against cathartics and
violent purgatiVes of every kind, rec
ommending mild, gentle laxative
tonic, like DR.. Caldwelrs Syrup Pepsin,
to effect relief without disturbing the
entire system.
DR.. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin is the
perfect laxative, easy in action, GER
tain in effect and, withal, pleasant to
the taste. It possesses tonic proper
ties that strengthen the stomach, liver
and bowels and is a remedy that has
been for years the great standby in
thousands of families, and should be
in every family medicine chest. It is
equally as valuable for children az for
older people.
Druggists everywhere sell DR.. Cald-
wells Syrup Pepsin In SOC and $1.00
bottles. II you have never tried it
send your name and address to DR.. w.
B. Caldwell, 201 Washington ST., Mon.
ticello, H., and he will be very glad to

Many Farmers to Attend Courses.

more efficiency and less waste in
agriculture" will be the keynote of
the ninth annual session of the farm
ers' course which will be held at Mad
ison January 80 to February 9 under
the auspices of the college of agricul-
ture Farmers from all sections of
the state are expected to attend the
courses which will be supplemented
by number of other meetings during
the session.
Although it is impossible to ascer-
tain the probable attendance at the
coming course, it is expected that the
total attendance will about equal that
of last year when in the neighbor-
hood of 1000 farmers enrolled in the
various courses as follows: Farmers
course, 1905; dairy course, 55; young
peoples course, 40; womcns course,
500; womens' school, "a.
In addition to these courses which
will be given again this year, three
other important meetings will be held
here at the same time. The second
annual meeting of the Wisconsin
Country Life conference will be held
here February IL while the an
nual meeting of the state board of
agriculture will be held here Febru
airy CT and the annual meeting of
the Wisconsin Live Stock Breeders
association on February 8.
The prospectus which has been
sent out to farmers all over the state
says ut will avail us little to pro-
duce more and better crops if we
allow the increase in quantity to be
swallowed up in extravaganza and
reckless waste. The efficiency engi-
neer is the man Of today. The eff
cient farmer is tho man of the flu
ture."

First University Exposition.

The first big university exposition
ever held in the world will be shown
early during the second semester by
the University of Wisconsin.
A great exposition exhibiting all
lines of work of every college and de-
partment in the state institution will
be held for two to four days either in
the armory or the athletic annex. The
plan has been put into the hands of
the Students union, which on
Wednesday night appointed this com
mittee: L. Washington, Chicago, ILL.,,
senior chairman; w. II. Carey, New
tonville, Mass, junior; G. w. Christie,
Milwaukee, junior; F. G.. Babcock,
Madison, junior; E. S. Hollen, Eau
Claire, freshman; r. ]. Meisehothen,
Madison, sophomore; G. r. Roter,
Parsons, Kan, junior; A. r. Myrland,
Grantsburg, sophomore; w A. Rogers,
Dayton, O., freshman.
The idea is a new one, and has
never been tried out in any institution
of learning. Every kind of work done
by the university will be exhibited IN
some manner. Exhibits used by the
school for various national conven-
tions, exhibitions, state fairs and the
like will be included in the great
showing of work. The event will
probably be held early in March.

a certain Samaritan, jOurneyed that
way, was touched with compassion.

PITIFUL SIGHT WITH ECZEMA

"a few days after birth we noticed
an inflamed spot on our baby's hip
which soon began spreading until
baby was completely covered even in
his eyes, ears and scalp. For eight
weeks he was bandaged from head to
foot He could not have stitch Of
clothing on. Our regular physician
pronounced it chronic eczema. He is
a very able physician and ranks with
the best in this locality, nevertheless,
the disease began spreading until
baby was completely covered. He
was losing flesh SO rapidly that we be-
came alarmed and decided to try Cuti
cura Soap and Ointment.
mot until | commenced using Cuti-
cura Soap and Ointment could we tell
what he looked like, as we dared not
wash him, and had been putting one
application after another on him. On
removing the scale from his head the
hair came off, and left him entirely
bald, but since we have been using
Cuticura Soap and Ointment he has
as much hair as ever. Four weeks
after we began to use the Cuticura
Soap and Ointment he was entirely
cured. 1 don't believe anyone could
have eczema worse than our baby.
Before we used the Cuticura Hem.
edies we could hardly look at him, he
was such pitiful sight. He would
fuss until I would treat him, they
seemed to relieve him so much Cuti-
cura Soap and Ointment stand by
themselves and the result they quick
iy and surely bring is their own rec
ommendation." (Signed) Mrs. T. B.
Rosser, Mill Hall, Pa, Feb. 20, 1911.
Although Cuticura Soap and Oint-
ment are sold by druggists and deal
ers everywhere, a sample of each.
with 32-page book, will be mailed free

Plan for Rich Colony in Wisconsin.

Plan for Rich Colony in Wisconsin.
A land deal which ultimately will.
result in increasing the population Of
Wisconsin many thousands, was con-
summated in Stevens Point a few,
days ago when a tract of 10000 acres,
in Marathon county was sold to a COLI
ony of Poles. About 500 families will.
settle there early in the spring and
soon 5000 more families win come.
This big sale of northern Wisconsin.
land is merely the beginning of big
plan by Polish farmers in Ohio, Penn
sylvania and New York, who have
realized that northern Wisconsin is
rich in agricultural possibilities.
About ten miles from Stevens Point.
in Polonia, the Polish farmers have
erected one of the largest rural
churches in this country.
''The purchase of that tract of land
in northern Wisconsin is a scheme
evolved by Polish farmers in the east
who are looking for better lands said
John p Hume of the Wisconsin Adj
vancement association. There are
dOOuL o,oOO,VOU dCI6S vi uAu0NCAOpCu
land in the immediate neighborhood
and as I understand it, most of that
land will be settled by a desirable
class of people. One thing which is
most noteworthy is their thriftiness
and therefore they will be an acquisi-
ton to the state.
'But the most significant thing of
all is that it means the development
Of the northern part of the state. It
will mean new towns, and it will
open a new market for Milwaukee
merchants. And not only that, 1t is
going to add to the wealth of the
state. With land in it's productive
stage worth on an average of $50 an
acre, it will mean at least $60,000,000
in added taxable property"

Wisconsin Has No Flag of Its own.

Wisconsin Has No Flag of Its Own.
Wisconsin has no state flag. This
is the conclusion reached by Assistant
Attorney General w. w Gilman, and
1t will be surprise to many persons,
especially Civil war soldiers who en-
listed from Wisconsin.
H. w. Rood, custodian of the G. A.
R. memorial hall and patriotic instruc-
tor of the state department of the G..
A. R., asked the attorney general if
Wisconsin had state flag The query
was turned over to Assistant Attorney
General Gilman, who found on investi-
cation that a state flag was adopted
by act of the legislature in 1863, but
that this act was repealed, probably
inadvertently, in 1878 when the stat
utes were revised.
The act Of 1868 adopting a state
flag provided that it should be a dark
blue silk, with the arms of the state
of Wisconsin painted or embroidered
in silk on the diverse side and the
arms of the United States painted or
embroidered in silk on the reverse
side, the name of the regiment, where
used as a regimental flag, to be in
scroll beneath the state arms.
1t also provided that the flag should
be six feet and six inches fly and six
feet deep on the pike, the pike to be
| nine feet ten inches long: the fringe
yellow, and cord and tassels of blue
and white silk mixed. 1t is probable
that the next legislature will be asked
to adopt the old flag or provide new
