There are several things that CON
| stantly remind us that we are a long
lway from home. In every village and
| hamlet old men predominant. They
are all retired farmers, and have a
certain quaint sense OF humor that is
certainly pleasing to the newcomer.
They will come struggling along into
the car i'm small herds and THE various
remarks one overhears are provoking
of laughter. They all wear overalls
and either the old-fashioned high
boots or pillow shoes, and the chances
are that the average wealth of those
in the crowd is pretty certain to be
in the neighborhood of one hundred
thousand dollars. They are an honest,
frugal lot whose biggest personal ex
pense is for tobacco. One town that
we visited last week one of these rich
old fellows was rural mail carrier.
Several parties told me. that he was
worth over seven hundred thousand
dollars and to date had overcome all
efforts of the envious ones to dislodge
him from his job. Think of Mime
sofa farmer worth even fifty thousand
dollars and carrying the mails day in
and day out. Takes a great stretch
of imagination, ell?
The average country hotel in south
ern Iowa is not pleasant memory.
To compare them would bring on a
longing for home that might prove
irresistible. Hominy, pork and fried
mush are the staple food products of
this section, but after one becomes
accustomed to this diet it is not at
all bad. The other day we stopped at
a hotel kept by a widow aged II years
and you can imagine our astonish-
,ment when she informed us that she
was born and raised in this state.

CONFIDENCE
We Back up 0u: Statements With
Our Personal Reputation
and Money

We are so positive shat we can re-
lieve constipation, no matter h o W
chronic it may be, that we offer to
furnish the medicine free of all cost
if we fail.
We think that it is worse than use
less to attempt to cure constipation
with cathartic drugs. Cathartics may
do much harm. They may cause a
reaction, irritate and weaken the
bowels, and make constipation more
chronic.
Constipation is often accompanied
and may be caused by weakness Of
nerves and muscles of the large intes-
tine or colon. To expect a cure you
must therefore tone up and strength
zen those parts and restore them To
healthier activity.
The discovery of the active princi-
pie of our remedy involved the labor
of skillful research chemists. This
remedy produces results such as are
expected from the best of the best
known intestinal tonics, and it is par
ticularly prompt in its results.
We want you to try Rexall Order
lies on our guarantee. They are ex-
ceedingly pleasant to take and are
ideal for children. They apparently
act directly on the nerves and muscles
of the bowels, having, it would seem,
a neutral action on other organs on
glands. They do not purge or cause
inconvenience. If they do not posi-
lively cure chronic or habitual consti-
patton and thus relieve the myriads

In defense OF his position. Mr.. Bow
erman cited the following from the
report of the special legislative com
mittee. appearing in the 1911 Senate
Journal.
Committee Passed Judgment.
BASED upon the foregoing facts
your committee is of the opinion that
the suggested site on the Oliver tract
(the one finally chosen). comprising
20 or more acres of bottom land
between the Oliver residence and the
O.-W. r. & n. track Is suitable in
every respect for the location of the
institution as an excellent building
site, sufficiently large for the re-
quirements of the institution now or
hereafter, and in the opinion Of
your committee, taking into consider
alton the favorable drainage conditi-
on, climatic conditions, transporta-
ton facilities, sewerage and water
supply, this location furnishes a very
desirable location and the only loca
tion that is worthy of any great con-
sideration, of any proposed or sug-
gester in or about the city of Pen
dleton."
This report was signed by L. f.
Bean, w. c Chase, L. S. Mann, j. c.

that the report of the physicians, w.
T. Williamson, Andrew c. Smith, j.
F. Calbreath and Harry Lane, sent to
| Investigate the Pendleton location,
| did not turn down" the Oliver tract
in its report, as has been reported.
The report of this committee, which
| also appears in the 1911 Senate Jour-
nal, refers to the "Carpenter-Oli Oliver
tract" and recites its advantages and
its disadvantages, but, Mr.. Bowerman
contends that the disadvantages re-
ferred to do not apply specifically to
the Oliver tract; that the steepnes'
of the slope complained of applies to
the Carpenter and not to the Oliver
tract
