WEATHER STILL

CONVICT SQUADS SHIFTED
No Rapid Progress Until Bet

The large convict camp maintained
for some time out Lee street road,
three miles south of Americas, was
broken up yesterday and the men and
returned to quarters here
Work had been started upon con-
crete abutments for the steel bridge
which will span the Walker mill creek
on the Leslie road, but this is de-
layed by continued bad weather, which
renders the work already done practi-
cally useless. 1t is quite probable
that small forces of convicts will be
sent out over the county to make tenn
porary road repairs as far as posi-
bic, remaining engaged until settled
weather makes permanent work pos
sibility.
Several bridges are to be built but
it is useless to attempt such work
while the rains continue. as concrete
abutments are undermined as rapidly
as constructed.

CHILDREN INJURED.
Ordinary Cathartics and Pills and
Physics Cause Distressing Com
plants.

You cannot be over-careful in the
selection of medicine for children
Only the very gentlest bowel medicine
should ever be given, except in emerg-
ency cases Ordinary pills, cathartics
and purgatives are apt to do more
harm than good. They may cause
gripping, nausea and other distressing
after-effects that are frequently health
destroying.
We personally recommend and guar
antee Rexall Orderlies as the safest
and most dependable remedy, which
We know. for constipation and as
sociate bowel disorders. We have
such absolute faith in the virtues Of
this remedy that we sell it on our guar
antee of money back in every instance
where it fails to give entire satisfac-
ton, and we urge all in need of such
medicine to try it at our risk.
ReXall Orderlies are eaten just like
candy, are particularly prompt and
agreeable in action, may be taken at
any time, day or night; do not cause
diarrhoea nausea, gripping, excessive
ooseness, or other undesirable effects.
They have a very mild but positive
action upon the organs with which
they come in contact, APPARENTLY acting
as a regulative tonic upon the relaxed
muscular coat of the bowel, thus over
coming weakness and aiding to re-
store the bowels to more vigorous and
healthy activity.
ReXall Orderlies commonly COM
pletely relieve constipation, except Of
curse when of a surgical character.
They also tend to overcome the neces-
sity of constantly taking laxatives to
keep the bowels in normal condition.
