Washington, Dec. 6.-Slowly recov.
ering from a severe illness, Colonel
John S. Mosby, the famous Southern
cavalry leader of the Civil War, today
quietly celebrated the birthday ami
versary which leaves him only one
year short of the mark of fourscore
years. Born at Edgemont, Va. Dec.
o. 1888, Colonel Mosby was practicing
law at Bristol when the war began.
He was one of the first to enlist in
the Confederate army, and with the
exception of short time when he was
disabled by a wound, he served con-
tinuously until Lees surrender, when
he disbanded his famous troop and
gave himself up, and upon the recon-
mendation of General Grant was re-
leased on parole.

PAST FIFTY? YOU

What Glasses Are to Weak Eyes, Cas-
carets Are to Weak BoweIs-A TO-
Cent Box viii Truly Amaze You.

Most old people must give to tn,
bowels some regular help, else the,
suffer from constipation. The condi
tion is perfectly natural. It is lust
as natural as it is for old people to
walk slowly. For age is never so
active as youth. The muscles are less
elastic. And the bowels are muscles.
So all old people need Cascarets.
One might as well refuse to aid weak
eyes with glasses as to neglect this
gentle aid to weak bowels. The
bowels must be kept active. This is
important at all ages, but never so
much as at fifty.
Age is not tirae for harsh physics. !
Youth may occasionally whip the
bowels into. activity. But lash can't
be used every day. What the bowels
of the old need is a gentle and nat.
ural tonic. One that can be con-
stantly used without harm. The only
such tonic is cascarets and they cost ,
only 10 cents per box at any drug
store. They work while you sleep. z
