CONFIDENCE
We Back Up Our Statements with Our
Personal Reputation and Money

We are so positive that we can re-
lieve constipation, no matter how
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 a re-
action, irritate and weaken the
bowels, and make constipation more
chronic.
Constipation is often accompanied
and may be caused by weakness OF
the nerves and muscles of the large
intestine or colon. To expect a cure
you must therefore tone up and
strengthen those parts and restore
them to healthier activity.
The discovery Of the active princi-
pie Of our remedy involved the labor

IN HONOR OF LINCOLN.

Gov. Wesley has issued the follow
ing Lincoln day proclamation:
in honor and in commemoration Of
the great Lincoln, our state legisla-
ture has set aside the twelfth day Of
February in each year as a legal holt
day, and at this time l desire to
recommend a general observance by
South Dakota's entire citizenship Of
the anniversary now near at hand.
The record Of Abraham Lincoln's
life is so Incorporated into and so
closely allied to the history Of our
country that with it all Americans
are we'll acquainted; with his early
boyhood, his youth, his maturity; and
by America and all the civilized world
he is revered as a hero, a martyr and
as a man.
Although he was born in poverty
and his early years were passed in
obscurity and an environment OF toll
and difficulty, the innate forces and
qualities Of his mind were such as to
fit him, and we'll fit him, for the n a
tons deliverer. Patient and wise,
with a mighty brain and a warm
heart, he piloted us through the dark.
est Of national perils, serving with un-
questioned loyalty and devotion the
right for which he always sought.
"The life of Abraham Lincoln was
the exemplification Of real integrity,
of honest nobility and in an inspira-
ton to all true Americans"

White is to have a postal savings
bank. Postmaster S. E. Wood has re-
ceived notice from the department
will be opened here the 10th OF this
month. He is not elated over the
prospect as he finds that the post
office red tape cannot compare with
that attached to the new department.
1t came as a surprise that this office
should be 81 designated, for it had
not been expected that so small an
Office would be included in this new
departure SO soon. 1t is to be doubted
if it will prove of much value here. as
the local banks have been accepting
small savings and paying a higher
rate of interest than the government

NEW BOY o PLAN.

A dispatch from Yankton says that
a dozen business men OF Yankton
have undertaken the organization of
the boy scouts, upon a basis which
will be Of interest to all Of the towns
in South Dakota which have been un-
able to keep their organizations alive.
Under the previous arrangement a
scoutmaster was hired and paid for
by the school board, all Of the boys
in the city meeting twice a week un-
der the leadership Of this one man
most of the time being devoted to
military drilling. Under the new ar
rangement twelve citizens have vol
unteered to take individual squads,
to form themselves, each composed
of boys who naturally train together
and each to formulate its own rules,
guided by the scout manual. Once a
month all Of the squads will assemble
together for competitive contests,
drills, etc, and on such occasions the
various scoutmasters will select one
OF their own number to be the chief
for the day. All service will be vol,
untary, and the men who are to give
of their time are heartily interested
in the proposition, as are also the
boys, nearly fifty Of whom are now
organizing their squads.

against st. Lawrence township at
Miller for $4,000 loaned many years
ago, it will be carried up to the SUI
preme court again. 1t has been back
and forth in the courts nearly a doz-

sink artesian wells many years ago
and interest was paid until someone
thought the loan exceeded the consti-
tutional limit and refusal to pay fol-
lowed. Mr.. Dring died last year, and

WHITE.

From the Leader:
There is talk of a vote upon the sa-
loon question It the coming spring
election in White. The town has been
without a saloon in nearly all its his
tory, and for years it has been impos-
sible to get sufficient signers to a pc
tition for a vote, but those interested
think they have a chance this year.
Those opposed promise that the
names Of the signers will appear In
print, and this may have some in
1uence. On the other hand the fact
that Bushnell may vote in a saloon
this spring may have something to do
with the result. At any rate election
may promise a little excitement.
