Mrs. Lillian Downs Dobson is hold
ing the stats examination for her
eighth grade pupils at the Lamar
school this week. Six pupils are writ
ing and Miss Agnes Cannon is the
examiner. 1t is worthy of note that
the patrons of this country school,
each year during this strenuous time
in which their offspring are struggling
with examination problems. are in the
habit of providing q snmptuous din
ner, piping hot, which is conveyed to
the school for the delectation of
teacher and pupils. This Is showing
the right spirit, one which would DO q

DR.. CALDWELL'S GUIDE
TO GOOD HEALTH

The natural tendency Of people in
this busy age to demand of the di-
gestiYe organs more than nature, in
tended they should perform, frequent
ly results in throwing the entire di-
gestive system into disorder. When
the stomach fails to freely digest and
distribute that which is eaten, the
bowels become clogged with q mass
Of waste and refuse which ferments
and generates poisonous gases that
are gradually forced into the blood
causing distress and often serious i'll
ness
DR.. W. B. Caldwell says that If the
bowels are Kept regular there will be
much less sickness, and prescribes a
combination Of simple laxative herbs
with pepsin that is most effective in
relieving any congestion Of matter in
the bowels. This compound can be
bought in any drug store under the
name Of Dr.. CaldweIPs Syrup Pepsin,
and costs only so cents q bottle. II is

Brockton, Mass.-Al records for

has given IO8 pounds of milk day,
which is at the rate of AZ pounds an

OLD CITY OF TANGIER
Second Only to Damascus in Its
Antiquity.
Cosmopolitan In the Extreme Are the
Crowded Thoroushfares OF the
Moroccan Capitai-Market Place
Especially Is Worth Visit

Tangier, Morocco-Damascus is
said to be the oldest inhabited city
in the world, and Tangier is generally
acknowledged to be the second old
est. Tangier lies on the north coast
of Morocco. facing the straits OF
Gibraltar, and is about thirty miles
from the great fortress. A steamer
plies between Gibraltar and Tangier.
When the steamer arrives at the
Moorish capital, there is a great hub
bub. Native boatmen fight and SQUAD
Die among themselves as to who
shall get the most passengers. Being
stranger you would perhaps rather
stay on board the steamer than trust
yourself to the dusky, bowling mob.
But there is no other way Of getting
ashore, and as the view of the town
is limited from the deck of the steam
er. you find yourself bundled into a
corner of the boat and the Moorish
boatmen pull for the shore. As soon
as you set foot on the landing stage,
you are besieged by a crowd of guides.
It is in vain you tell them their serv-
ices are not required, and SO in order
to get peace you hire the services of
a big lanky Arab. You need not fol
low him where he wants you to go,
but as you have provided yourself
with a guide book. you make your
own plans.
Tangier is cosmopolitan city.
Here, jostling together in the crowded
thOroughfares, may be seen the state

The streets are very narrow, and
the shops are very small, so small
that the merchant can easily reach
all round his store without rising
from his seat on the floor The Moors
have a proVerb which says-''It is no
use running if you can walk, and it
is no use walking If you can stand,

sit; it is no use sitting if you can lie
down, no use lying If you can sleep"

ma. On the other hand, the revised
Pe-ru-na is a better remedy for some
conditions than Ka-tar-no. They are
both intended as catarrh remedies.
They have both done a great work in
relieving catarrh, chronic and acute.
Many hundreds of cases of chronic
catarrh have recovered while taking
Ka-tar-no and the same is true OF the
revised Pe-ru-na during the last six
years since its revision.
There is a difference, however, in
the two remedies. Whenever catarrh
is associated with constipation then
the revised Pe-ru-na is the best. In
deed, this is exactly why the revision
was made, to meet such cases But
where no laxative is needed, where the
bowels are regular or inclined to be
loose, then the old Pe-ru-na (Ka-tar-
MOI is the better remedy.

At the close of the great show the
