1000 PERSONS
CAN NEITHER
READ OR WRITE

There are 1900 people in
North Dakota, over 10 years of
age, who can neither read nor
write. that showing being made
by the United States census bu-
reau in a report which has just
been issued.
All told there are 424,73O peo-
pie in the state who are over 10
years of age, the percentage of
%illiterates being 81 per cent.
The percentage If illiterates in
North Dakota is just one-tenth of
a per cent greater than the num-
Der Of i%lliterates in Minnesota,
while South Dakota has 80 per
cent of illiterates.
Compared with the condition
that existed in 1900, the North
Dakota record is very satisfac-
tory.
In that year the states per-
centage of illiterates was Sc per
cent.
The population of persons over
10 years was then 229,161, while
the number of illiterates was 49,
10. So. while the state had made
a gain of Eel 100000 in people of
that age, it has made a gain of
only about 500 people who could
lot read o write.

FOLKS PAST FIFTY
MUST USE CASCARETS
What Glasses Are to Weak Eyes, Cas-.
carets Are to Weak Bowel-A 10.
Cent Box Will Truly Amaze You.

Most old people must give to the
bowels some regular help, else they
suffer from constipation. The condi-
ton is perfectly natural. It is just
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 we'll refuse to aid weak
eyes with glasses as to neglect this
gentle aid to weak bowels. The bow
els must be kept active. This is i'm
portant at all ages. but never SO much
as at fifty.
Age is not a time for harsh physics.
Youth may occasionally whip the
bowels into activity. But a lash can't
be used e-ery day. What the bowels
of the old need Is a gentle and ma
turai 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.
