The Perfect Laxative
For Elderly People

Age has It's attractions no less than
youth In a more serene and quieter life
But It is this very life OF rest without
sufficient exercise that brings with 1t
those disorders that arise from inac-
tivity. Chief Of these are a chronic,
persistent constipation.
Most elderly people are troubled in
this way, with accompanying symptoms
Of belching, drowsiness after eating,
headaches. and general lassitude. Fre-
quently there is difficulty Of digesting
even light food. Much mental trouble
ensues, as 1t Is hard to find a suitable
remedy. First OF all the advice may be
given that elderly people should not
use salts. cathartic pills or powders,
waters or any of the more violent pur-
gatives. What they need, women as
well as men. Is a mild laxative and
tonic, one that is pleasant to take and
yet acts without gripping.
The remedy that fills all these re-

stand. operated the first electric score
board in st, Louis and installed drink
ing fountains when the public cups
were barred. The only ~diagreeable
features retained by the colonel are the
unsightly advertisements on the fences
and a tail-end ball club, but he hopes
to get away from the upside down
championship this year.
Safe and Sane Era Approaches.
The safe and sane era in baseball
approaches rapidly in more ways than
one. The modification of the national
agreement limiting the number Of
players to be held in reserve to thirty
five is a god move--if enforced. Mr..
Hedges had a scheme for allowing a
club a certain number Of men in pro-
portion to its standing in the race.
This would give the weaker clubs an
opportunity of Strengthening, while
the topnotchers would not need so
much Improvement. An arrangement
like that might make the league races
more uncertain, At present the lead
ing clubs have a big advantage in be-
ing able to collect a mammoth surplus
which can be turned over into new
playing talent, while the tail ender
must dig to build UP.
The probationary period for rockies
coming to the big leagues will help the
minors and save some money for the
majors. Heretofore, the juvenile in
the first year in fast company could
expect to receive at least 5000 per
month for a six months season. If he
We're turned back for further season
ing, the minor league club would have
to assume his contract. To a man
from class d who received maybe 500
per month last year, to 30 out and
collect 5000 simply because he was
the guest Of a major club in spring
training, was an advance far beyond
reason. Now the rookie gets % Sper
cent more than his minor league sal
airy until the club decides if it wishes
to retain him or send him back, a def
mite time being set for this decision.
If he is to be held in the big show the
club owner and player must come to
terms at any sum agreeable to both.

The Biggest Chalmers Year

From time to time in the past it has been our
pleasure to quote from those in the automobile
trade, and the public generally. a commonly heard
expression, This is another Chalmers year"

pleased to be able to vary this quotation and say,
This is the biggest Chalmers year OF ALL" Since
July LIST the Chalmers Company has shipped 40
per cent more cars than during the same period
last year-and last year was a good year too.
We believe that this phenomenal business is due
to the fact that the Chalmers cars shipped in
previous seasons have been holding up and giving
good service and that the Chalmers Company is
