TONIGHT TAKE A
"cAscARET" SURE
No Headache, Sour Stomach, Bilious
ness or Constipation by Morn
ing

Turn the rascals out-the head
ache, the biliousness. the indigestion,
the sick. sour stomach and foul gases
turn them out tonight and keep
them out with Cascarets.
Millions Of men and women take a
Cascaret now and then and never
know the misery caused by lazy
liver, clogged bowels or an upset
stomach.
Don't put in another day Of distress,
Let Casoarets cleanse and regulate
your stomach; remove the sour, undi-
gested and fermenting food and that
misery-making gas; take the excess
bile from your liver and carry out OF
the system all the constipated waste
matter and poison in the intestines
and bowels. Then you will feel great.
A Cascaret tonight will surely
straighten you out by morning. They
work while you sleep. A 1O-cent box
from any drug store means a clear
head, sweet stomach and clean,
healthy liver and bowel action for
months. Children love to take Cas-
carets because they taste good
never grippe or sicken.

soon as any surplus which they may
now have becomes exhausted. Euro
pean bankers certainly are not likely
to lend aid in this direction.
Fortunately home politics is attract
ing less and less attention. The out
come of the campaign becomes more
and more evident and the result will
probably be fully discounted in ad-
vance. provided no shocks intervene.
At the moment the issues in question
are obscured by the personalities
which have entered into the campaign
but the feeling grows that whichever
party wins the policy will be to dis
turb business as little as possible,
With the approach Of holiday, there
was naturally less disposition to
trade, in view of what is happening
in the Balkans. Very soon the market
will be watching election day and en-
deavoring to discount its result so
that conditions suggest somewhat
unsettled and fIuctuating market. New
ertheless, as already stated, in
trnsic conditions are satisfactory and
sound, and in the long run we may
anticipate a more active and stronger
market for stocks. Our agricultural
prosperity is a rock of strength and

REGULAR BOWEL MOVEMENT
FROM CHILDHOOD ON FORE
STALLS FUTURE SERIOUS
DIsEA3Es

We cannot all start life with the adj
vantages Of money. but every child
born is entitled to the heritage Of
good health. Through unfortunate ig-
norance or carelessness in the feeding
Of baby its tiny stomach may be-
come deranged. The disorder spreads
to the bowels and before the mother
realizes It the two chief organs on
which the infants comfort and health
depend are causing It great suffering.
If the condition Is allowed to continue
grave ailments often result.
There is, however, no occasion for
alarm, and the sensible thing to do
but it should be done instantly-is to
give the baby small dose Of mild
laxative-tonic. In the opinion OF a.
great many people, among them such
well known persons as the mother Of
Floyd Robertson, 1876 s. nth street,
Lincoln, Neb., and Mrs. 9. Ia Williams
Bridgeport. Wash, the proper remedy
lis DR.. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin. It is
a pleasant-tasting laxative, which ev-
cry person likes. 1t is mild, non
gripping. and contains that most excel
lent of all digestants, pepsin.
This remedy is especially intended
for infants, children, women, old peo-
pie and all others to whom harsh ca
thartics, salt waters, pills, ETC., are dis
tressing. In fact in the common dis
orders Of life, such as constipation,
liver trouble, indigestion, biliousness,
headaches, and the various other dis
orders Of the stomach, liver and bowels
nothing is more suitable than this mild

The southern free traders Will dpmin-

who would like to see their business
interests saved from destruction.
If. therefore. Woodrow Wilson should
be elected--and the fight is now be-
tween Taft and Wilson-eyery manu-

the morning Of November 9th that he
ic up against new tariff AS nothing
can be done until the new congress
assemblies after the 4th Of March and
several months will be consumed in
arranging, debating and enacting the
new tariff schedules, there is certain to
be long period of uncertainty and
anxiety, during which the factories
viii do no more work than Is abso-
lutely necessary. The purchase Of
supplies will be stopped and orders

by the lack Of home market and
certainty of foreign importations, will
be anxious and compelled to carefully
husband their resources. Banks will
be averse to extending credits and will
call in outstanding loans in the GER

will be depleted as soon as American
gold begins to so abrad.
Under these circumstances and
they are certain to happen as night fol

TO TRY WOMAN FOR MURDER.
Augusta, Me-, Oct. 15.-Mrs. Elsie
Hobbs Raymond of Poland, who has
been confined in jail here since she
was indicted for murder last April,
will probably be tried at the term Of
the Kennebec county court that con-
vened today. The case is one of the
most notable in the criminal annals
Of Maine. Mrs. Raymond is accused
of the murder of Matte Hackett, a.
yonng girl Of Readfield, who was
called from her home by an unknown
person on the evening Of August II,
1905, and strangled to death in a thick
ct near by. Suspicion soon fell upon
Mrs. Raymond an acquaintance Of the
murdered girl, who was believed to
have been ejalous Of her. Mrs. Ray
mond and her husband gave an ac-
count Of their movements on the even
ing Of the crime which established an
alibi that the state could not find evil
dence enough at the time to destroy.
Last spring, however, the prosecuting
attorney presented newly discovered
evidence to the grand jury, with the
result that Mrs. Raymond was indict-
ed on charge Of murder in the first
degree.

door will be closed or a workman lose
his job. The democrats ON the other
hand, are pledged to enact legislation
which would almost inevitably wreck
the splendid business development
which is the result of 16 years of re-
publican policies enacted into law, fol-
lowing the disastrous experience of
democratic control.
One Of the principal obstacles with
which the republican managers have
had to contend is the democratic as
sertion that the country is so big and
the times are SO prosperous that the
present conditions will continue no
matter who may be elected.
This was the assertion made by the
democrats when they advocated the
election Of Cleveland in 1892. The
statement was false then and it Isl
false now.
Unfortunately, but none the less
truly, prosperity is not alone the gift
Of Cod. There were bountiful crops
between 1898 and 1897, when the dem
ocrats were in power, but corn was
worth only 16 cents busheI, wheat
sold for "a cents bushel and other
cereals were equally low. while cattle
and hogs hardly paid for the cost Of
raising. The trouble then was that
the factories were closed and work
ingmen were idle, because of the
amount Of goods bought abroad, while
millions Of dollars Of American gold
was shipped across the seas in order
to pay the bills Of foreign creditors
Who can give assurance that what
happened then would not happen
again?
Woodrow Wilson is fr4e trader.
He testified before the tariff board
that he favored the repeal Of all pro-
tective tariff laws and advanced the
un-American, un-patriotic, illogical
and absurd proposition that because
there was free interchange of com
modities between the states Of this
Union there should be a similar free
interchange between the United States
and the producing countries of the
world It would seem as IL a man who
is SO blinded by life spent within
the four walls of college cloister
that he cannot see the difference be
tween his own country and other ma
tons ought never to be elected presi-
dent of the American people.
With Woodrow Wilson q confessed
free trader, and with Champ Clark de-
claring, as he did upon the floor Of
the house, that custom houses ought
to be destroyed. there is no doubt that
free trade laws will be proposed. Their
enactment is equally certain. In the
present house of Representatives there
are 229 democrats, 125 Of whom come
from the south. The southern demo
