Laxative For Old
People," CasCarets.'

Most old people must give to the
bowels some regular help, else they
suffer from constipation. The condi
ton is perfectly natural 1t is Just as
natural as it is for old people to walk
slowly. For age is never SO active as
youth. The muscles are less elastic
And the bowels are muscles.
So all old people need Cascarets
One might as well refuse to aid weak
eyes with glasses as to neglect this
gentle aid to weak bowels. The bow
els must be kept active. This is i'm
portant at all ages. but never so much
as at fifty.
Age is not time for harsh physics
Youth may occasionally whip the
bowels into activity But a lash can't
be used every day. What the bowels
of the old need is a gentle and natural
tonic. one that can be constantly used
without harm. The only such tonic is
Cascarets and they cost only 10 cents
per box at any drug store They work
while you sleep.

his children from which quote as follows:
"Our o-year-oid baby was very sick
at two different times and we came near
losing, her. We had the best doctors,
but they did not know what the trouble
was. In the first sickness she had high fever
for several days, and the doctor said it acted
like scarlet fever, but as there were no other
cases he did not think it could be. After
wards she broke out in rash all over her
body. The last sickness was similar and
the doctor was puzzled. She was very
nervous aud we feared we would lose her
Your DR.. True's Elixir was recommended,
and after two days use she passed several
worms from two to three inches in length,
and is now well and strong and sleeps at
nights withoutfretting, tossing and starting
in fright as she did formerly.

mans name and address TO anyone who
cares to write TO me,

ARooSTook RESCRlPT.
Law Court Overrules Motion for New
Trial in Replevin Case.

The law court, Friday. handed down
per curiam rescript in the Aroos-
took county case of Henry Kennard
VS.. Reuben Hathaway, everything mo-
tion for new trial. The rescript Is as
follows
This is an action or replevin in
which the plaintiff claimed the right
of possession of a horse by virtue OF
a mortgage. The horse replevied was
owned and mortgaged by the defend
ant, as security for notes given in part
payment for "A horse sold and deliv
cred to the defendant by the plaintiff,
The defendant claimed that the plain
tiff fraudulently misrepresented the
horse purchased by him and returned
the horse to the plainun. thereby UNI
dertaking to rescind the trade. If the
defendant had "a right to rescind the
trade, then it is evident that he was
entitled to retain the possession of
the horse he had mortgaged to the
plaintiff. Whether he was justified in
his act of RECESSION depends entirely
upon the issue of whether, in fact,
such false and fraudulent misrepre-
sensations We're made by the plain
tiff, as to the character and qualities
of the horse, and such reliance was
placed upon them by the defendant, As
warranted him in returning the horse
and cancelling the contract of sale.
This issue was fully presented, I'M
Ger instructions TO which no excep

! saw and heard the parties and their
witnesses Were peculiarly qualified &c
pass upon the eredibility of the tes-
timony and the effect of the evidence
and their verdict shouid not be dis
/ turbed unless it clearly comes within
the rule of law that requires the
court to interfere A careful read
| ing of the testimony discloses no sucI
error, misconduct or prejudice in the
finding of the jury, as to justify the
court in setting it aside.

It is claimed by the members of the board that cotton men are merchants and should be so class ed and assessed.
