The Perfect Laxative
For Elderly People

Age has its attractions no less than
youth in a more serene and Quieter life.
But it is this very life of rest without
sufficient exercise that brings with it
those disorders that arise from in
activity. Chief of these are a chronic,
persistent constipation.
Most elderly people are troubled in
this way, with accompanying symptoms
of belching, drowsiness after eating,
headaches and general lassitude. FIRE.
Quently there is difficulty of digesting
even light food. Much mental trouble
ensues, as it is hard to find suitable
remedy. First of all the advice may be
given that elderly people should not use
salts, cathartic pills or powders, waters
or any of the more violent pnrgadves.
What they need, women as well as men,
Is a mild laxative tonic, one that is
pleasant to take and yet acts without

Quirements. and has in addition tonic

TWO HOURS BATTLE
 FOUR OUTLAWS.
Escape Nevertheless With $S00O-Robbery Care
 fully Planned

Fort Smith. Ark, April A.-A small par ty of citizens fought a two hours battle with four robbers at Midland, 30 miles south of here, before daylight today. The marauders escaped with loot estimated at $s0OO. Four dynamite charges wrecked the vault of the Bank of Midland, awakening the townspeople.
 The robbers set fire to the bank. Val uable papers were burned. This probably will double the loss. The flames were soon extinguished. The entry of the rob- bers into Midland was accomplished quiet ly. It is believed an hour or more after midnight they entered.
 Evidences of their work of preparation shows that the robbery had been care fully planned. The telephone exchange is in the second story of the bank build ing and all wires were cut The first charge was muffled. It created no vide spread alarm. Several persons told of having been awakened by the noise. They said they went back to sleep and were awakened by the second charge. This was followed by a third charge of great CT force,
 Realizing that something was wrong people began collecting in all sections Of the little town. Almost every able bodied man in Midland was awake when the fourth charge occurred. A telephone wire cutting aroused suspicion. All armed themselves and crept toward the bank. Shots from lookouts greeted them and a running fight began between the rob- bers and men behind trees, fences and hidden around corn cribs The robbers kept up their end of the battle until anl- intuition gave out. When no shots from the bank answered those of tlie towns | pie a search was made Fire then started. The men had escaped. A posse hastily | formed and trailed the robbers several miles but without effect.
 | It is believed the robbers got away well
 in advance of their pursuers. They made their escape.

HOBBS FEARS WERE
 OF RAD|CAL|SM| The National Cotton Manu- lecturers Meet in
 Boston

Boston, April 24.-"The Wave of Rad
 realism" was the topic considered by President Hobbs of the National Asso- citation of Cotton Manufacturers in his annual address delivered before the opening session of that organization today.
 "In our country said President Eobbs. there has been so much talk and so. much denunciation of the es- tablished order that one naturally be- gins to wonder if after all this na- ton and it's form of government are failures.
 Tt seems clear 10 me as a result of this talk. criticism and denunciation on the part of the politicians and dem agogues, there has followed growth throughout the country" the speaker said. The agitators have sown dis content and dissatisfaction and the country is reaping socialism without including anarchism. As manufac- turers and public spirited citizens. I believe our duty to take heed and do 1ur part to lead the people back to The old moorings and see that cond- dence is restored in the old leaders,
 President Hobbs in reviewing the textile situation expressed belief that ihe long period of depression is at an end and that the outlook for the imme- diate future is encouraging. Another feature of the opening ses- sicn was a paper by Congressman L. P. Padgett of Columbia, Tenn, on bank ing problems in cotton manufactures
