The tendency Of advancing years to
restrict activity and exercise Is re-

Of most elderly people. The wear of
years impairs the action Of the bow

sensitive to the demands upon them
and rebel more quickly. Cathartics

have used it, is the compound of sim.

sign his office to accept appointment
as United States senator at the hands
OF Lieutenant Governor Sweetser. and
appointed Judge K. |. Perky of Boise

Senator Hepburn.
Governor Hawley's decision came as
a surprise in view of the fact that
Friday night he announced his ipten.
tion OF taking the appointment. His
explanation is that, as the time drew
near, the bringing about of his own
elevation to the place became repul.

was brought to bear upon him, espe-
cially from north Idaho, to remain
governor to the end of his term.
Judge Perky is a native of WAYNE
county, Ohio, and came to Idaho in
1884, and was appointed Judge of the
Fourth judicial district in 1901. He
was state Democratic chairman in
1890 and took part in the senatorial
csntest which resulted in the defeat
of former Senator Dubois.
