"CASCARETS" FOR
SICK HEADACHE
It's Your Inactive Liver and
BOwels-You Need Cas-
carets Sure

You're bilious. you have a throb-
bling sensation in your head, bad
taste In your mouth, your eyes burn,
your skin is yellow. with dark rings
under your eyes; your lips are
parched. No wonder you feel ugly,
mean and ill-tempered. Your system
is full OF bile not properly passed OFF.
and what you need Is a cleaning up
inside. Don't continue being bilious
nuisance TO yourself and those
who love you, and don't resort to
harsh physics that irritate and In
lure Remember that most disorders
OF the stomach. liver and intestines
can be quickly cured by morning
with gentle, thorough Cascarets-
they work while you sleep. A To-
cent box from your druggist Will
keep your liver and bowels clean;
stomach sweet and your head clear
for months. Children love to take
Cascarets. because they taste good
and never grippe or sicken.-Ady.

POSTMETRESS
CAN'T LOSE JOB
Files Her Resignation and Has
Received No Reply From
the Department

GRASS VALLEY, Cal. Jan. 10
Down at Rough and Ready Mrs Alice
Bennett the postmistress, is wonder
ing how she can get rid OF the post
office at that place. For years she has
been handing out the letters and
papers to the patrons, but now there
is barely enough compensation TO buy
brooms to keep the office clean, uLd
several weeks ago she fled her resiS-
nation with the department..
No action has been taken upon IT.,
and she is obliged TO hold on until she
liz relieved There is nobody in that
Vicinity who wants the responsibility
and the emoluments, and as a result
the office is going begging.
1t Is probable that rural delivery
will eventually take It's place. II Is
believed that a route that wouli In
clude Rough and Ready. Penn valley,
Pleasant Valley and the contiguous
country would serve enough people to
justify IL.

GIRL MONTPELIER
MAKES SHOWING
Miss Bessie Thompson in Con
troll of the Finances of
Atlantic City

ATLANTIC CITY, Jan. I0.--Miss I5es-
sic NJ. Townsend. acting comptroller,
with a salary OF $1,000 year. is max
Ing good In her new office. She Is the
first woman to hold such a position in
any city OF the country. and she IS
admirably fitted for the place by long
training and unusual executive ability.
Before the city commissioners con-
ferred this distinction upon her they
dismissed city Comptroller David II
Barrett, against whom charges were
brought some time ago.
Miss Townsend graduated from the
local high school In 1902 and immedl-
8tcly entered the employ OF City Comp
troller A. NJ. Heston. who was removed
from office by the council on Jan. i
last. She has been head bookkeeper
since then, and is looked upon AS an
authority In financial affairs.
