THE SAFE LAXATIVE
FOR ELDERLY PEOPLE

Most elderly people are more or
less troubled with a chronic, per-
sistent constipation, due largely to
lack Of sufficient exercise. They ex-
perience difficulty in digesting even
light food, with a consequent belching
of stomach gases, drowsiness after
eating, headache and a feeling of lassi-
tude and general discomfort.
Doctors advise against cathartics and
violent %purgatives of every kind, rec
ommending a mild, gentle laxative
tonic, like DR.. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin,
to effect relief without disturbing the
entire system.
DR.. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin is the
perfect laxative, easy in action, GER
tain in effect and. withal, pleasant to
the taste. 1t possesses tonic proper
ties that strengthen the stomach, liver
and bowels and is a remedy that has
been for years the great standby in
thousands of families, and. should be
In every family medicine chest. It is
equally as valuable for children as for
older people.
Druggists everywhere sell DR.. Cald-
wells Syrup Pepsin in SOC and $1.0O
bottles. If you have never tried it
send your name and address to DR.. w.
B. Caldwell, POI Washington ST., Mon
ticello, ILL.,, and he will be very glad to
send a sample bottle for trial.

In order to have good-sized sheep
grow them rapidly while young.
Poorly fed sheep will not produce
very good wool, nor good mutton.
Equal parts of corn and oats are
hard to excel as a grain feed for
sheep.
During an extra cold spell of wealth

Do not attempt to winter more
sheep than can be done without

Growing pigs should not be crowd

The driver more than the horse is
always more to blame for the animals
being vicious-if he ever is.
Leave a horse united when hooked
to a vehicle and he will be likely to
be gone when you return for him.

The best dairy COW is the one that

A dairy thermometer comes into
good play any time of year, but is
especially valuable to have around for
winter churning.
The supply of vegetable matter is
most easily maintained in the soil by
the growing of green crops and by the
application of manure.
Change in the conditions Of dairy

work because they would rather quit
than improve their methods.
Horse breeding requires more cap

and involves larger losses if not, than
any other kind of stock breeding.
Moles in a garden prove an intoler-
able nuisance. While they may be

A half teaspoonful Of Paris green

An old horseman says that the
chief cause of collie in horses, or the
cause of the largest per cent. of these
cases, is brought through long absti-

Alfalfa meal is becoming a popular
feed, but in Kansas, where they raise
a lot of that kind of hay, farmers
claim that the COW can do the grinding

gobble onto some of his stock. Cows
that hold out are worth their weight

Digests Are Numerous.

His address. in part, follows: Written
upon few sheets of paper. the Constitu-
ton has, by judicial construction, now
become so expanded and difficult that the
treaties, decisions and digests upon it
form a fair sized library requiring
lifetime to master.
This vast body of juridcal literature
is largely the outgrowth of the practice
Of the federal courts to examine whether
acts of the national and state legislatures
are contrary to the Constitution of the
United States and il they are found so
to be. to adjudge them null and void.
And the frequency and persistency with
which this line of action has been fol-
lowed by the courts has brought the peo-
pie quite suddenly to a realization that
the power of the Supreme Court Of the
United States is measurably despotic. 1t
brings US to a consciousness of the fact
that this country is governed by legal
oligarchy.
Lawyers have manifested great alarm
over an issue recently created known as
the recall of judges, and they profess
to believe that this movement will un-
dermine and destroy the moral influence
of the Judiciary. But the movement for
of the judiciary. But the movement for
tom of a diseased body polite; 1t is a
surface indication of inward weakness;
it is the result of the usurpation of pow
er by the judiciary.
1.-The law and its administration in this
country are the predominating evils of
modern history, and the demand for the
recall Of judges is superficial effort
on the part of the people to obtain re-
dress.
Il do not mean to assert that l am in
favor of jerking judge from the bench
for every mistake he makes-lifting him,
as it were, from his judicial eminence
directly upon the rendition of an unpop-
ular decision: but there should be some
remedy for judicial ignorance and con-
tinued mistakes.

form in which the Constitution Is written,
saying that its simple words have given
birth to such frequent contentious that
today the text is buried under mountain
of decisions by the various courts. He
declared that the power of the Supreme
Court to interpret the Constitution is
despotic. Discussing the recall of judges
he said that the movement for such legis-
lation is a legitimate symptom of a dis

sailing the movement for direct pri-
maries, declaring that this method of Sc
lecting candidates is "empiric inefficient
