CONFIDENCE
We Back Up Our Statements
with Our Personal Reputa-
ton and Money.

We are SO positive that we can
relieve constipation, no matter how
chronic it may be. that we offer to
furnish the medicine free of all
cost if we fail.
We think that it is worse than
useless to attempt to cure constipa-
ton with cathartic drugs. Cathar.
tics may do much harm. They
may cause reaction, irritate and
weaken the bowels, aud make con-
stipation more chronic.
Constipation is often accom-.
panied and may be caused by weak
ness of the nerves and muscles of
the large intestine or colon To
expect cure you must therefore
tone up and strengthen tn ose parts
and restore them to healthier ac-
tivity.
The discovery of the active prin.
ciple Of our remedy invovled the
labor of skillful research chemists.
This remedy produces results such
as are expected from the best of
the best-known intestinal tSnics,
and it is particularly prompt in its
results
Z We want you to try RexaIl Or
derlies on our guarantee. They
are exceedingly pleasant to take
and are ideal for children. They
apparently act directly on the
nerves and muscles of the bowels,
having, it would seem. a neutral
action on other organs or glands.
They do not purge or cause incon.
venience. Ii they do not positively
cure chronic or haditual constipa-
ton and thus relieve the myriads
of associate or dependent chronic
ailments, your money will be re-
funded. Try Rexall Orderlies at
our risk. Three sizes of packages.
1Oc., 25c. and SOC. Remember.
you can obtain Rexall Remedies in

KEEP OFF"

Do not keep your politeness to
put on with your good clothes,
because if you do, you will surely
plainly show that it is not natur-
al. Cultivate politeness, not only
for what outsiders will say, but
Lecause it is the right thing to
do, one OF your many talents to
make good use of, and anything
that improves, always increases
our self-respect as we'll as the
good opinion of the world.

dropped to the lowest point Of the season.
Tweaty degrees below zero was reei.rered
here At 8 clock today. Conditions in

when the most disastrous blizzard the
state ever knew DESTROYED Thousands of
cattle and literally drove settlers from
the state.
Train service on all western lines was
in chaotic condition and on some road.
was temporarily abandoned. The whole
southwest after almost three weeks of
extreme winter, coupled with gas and
transportation famine, faced q situation,
which unless conditions improve within
few days, will be desperate
Swamped by appeals for aid, the heavi-
est since its orkaniz alton, the Kansas City
Provident association issued an announce.
ment that unless more contributions were
received Immediately, starvation and
freezing among dependents would result.
Thousands are without employment in
the city. The extended cold wave had
quadrupled demands for aid.
Record breaking Temperatures extended
throughout the Missouri valley. Sioux

was 70 below.

Lizard Aead Peak sam st.nd,.

Shall the mountain come to Ma

paper writer's seem to be determined
that II shall, II the prophet happens
to be near the foot of the peak. OF
late we have read numerous stories Of
sliding mountains, slipping mountains,
the demolition OF the cross on the
Mount of the Holy Cross (which was
conclusively proved untrue). etc, etc.
And to these was recently added q
plausible tale to the effect that Lizard
Head latitude 1856 feet), one Of the
most striking peaks in southwestern
Colorado. on the Rio Grande Southern
Railroad, had yielded to the force of
gravity and topled over.--or at least
a great portion OF 1t. But, alas for the
credulous newspaper man! The rail-
road superintendent now states author
itatively that the published report OF
the accident was due to Joke perpe-
