a Permanent Cure For
Chronic Constipation

AlthouEh those may dispute Il who
DINERS, Who speak from personal expert
ence, assert that there Is q perfnaneYlt
cure TOE chronic constipation. Some
IeStlty they were cured for as little az
ntty cents, years ago, and That the
trouble never came back on thenl. while
others admit they took several BOTTLES
before steady cure was brought about.
The remedy referred to Is DR.. Cald-
Weifs Syrup PepBin. It has been on
the market for over quarter OF a
century and has been popuiarized on its
merits, by one person telling another,
Ine tact that Its strongest supporters
most persistently constipat ed-malkes it
certain that the claims regarding Il az
q permanent cure for constipation have
not been exaggerated.

It was in 1906 that young Goulon
entered his first ring engagement
with the eyes Of the public directed
at him. Mike Butler, who then was
director of boxing at the Chicago
Athletic Club. sent him to. St Louis
to compete in an amateur tourney
there, and the Chicago boy came
home with the championship Of his
class tucked under his belt,
Coulon's entry into the profession

again, and Pop" Coulon was always
there to look after his sons inter-

Then Joanny made the acquain-
lance Of George Siler. the noted
referee, who has since crossed the
great divide, and Coulon gives Siler
the credit -or making him the great

LAFAYETTE, La, Feb. 23.-A
large and enthusiastic audience
Of representative citizens last
night heard wellknown speakers
severely arraign the attitude of
Superintendent of Education 7.
H. Harris in the recent State
primary. Strong resolutions
were adopted asking Mr.. Harris
to surrender his nomination.
Judge William Campbell of the
District Court called the meeting

ness man; Judge Julian Mouton,
W. D. Torian. Attorney Jerome
Mouton, Judge Philip s. Pugh Of
Crowley, and MIR. Kennedy and
ex.Mayor G. O. Mouton spoke.
]. It was charged that MIR. Harris
was insincere when he wrote
over his own signature that he
wanted to keep the schools out
Of politics, and in q measure he
had obtained his nomination bv
fraud.
Jude Campball and Messrs.
IL, Leo Judice, Aurelien Oliver,
.Lue Le Blanc and W. D, Torian
were appointed on the committee
on resolutions.
3 The resolutions called on Mr..
Harris 70 resign and said in part:
Whereas, Mr.. Thomas H.
Harris. who secured the unop.
posed Democratic nomination to
the ohBce Of State Superinten.
dent Of public Education, had,
prior 10 his nomination, stated to
the people Of the State that he
did not believe in entangling the
public schools in partisan politics
and that on accoun Of his Official
position he would decline to par.
'tacipste in any partisan political
meetings, thereby inducing the
people Of the State to believe
that this declaration was . sin.
lcere expression Of his sentiments
and after securing the unopposed
Democratic nomination by this
Itllse pretense, he became . vio-
lent and offensive political ad-
'herent Of one Of the candidates
;ioE the Democratic nomination
Ifor the governorship. and thus
