ClO9Ged Bowels a
Menace to Health
Constipation at Bottom of Most
4 Serious IIlnesSes-Avoided
by a Simple Remedy.

Trace the origin of the common
er ills of life and almost invaria-
bly, you will find that constipa-
ton was the cause. 1t is not to
be expected that a mass of fer
mented food can remain in the
system beyond it's time without
vitiating the blood and affecting
the nerves and muscles. 1t con-
gests the entire body.
The results are colds, fevers,
piles, headaches and nervousness
with it's accompanying Indigestion
and sleeplessness. There is only
one thing to do land that Is to re-
move the trouble; and when ma
ture seems unable to do it, out
side aid is necessary. You will
find the best of all outside aids a
remedy that many thousands are
now using for this very purpose,
called DR.. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin.
Many hundreds of letters are re-
ceived by DR.. Caldwell telling of
the good results obtained, and
among the enthusiastic letters is
one from Docia Wood of Little
River Academy, North Carolina,
who suffered with constipation
and indigestion so badly that she
could not sleep we'll at night and
everything she ate distressed her.
She writes that after her mother
had given her DIR. Caldwell's
Syrup Pepsin she "can now eat
anything"
1t has untold advantages over
pills, salts and the various coarse
cathartics and purgatives, for
while these do but temporary
good, Syrup Pepsin cures perman-
emily. The effect of it's action is

BY MAUDE LIE PAGE.
Written for the Times by the Girl
Who Would Sell Her Soul for
$1,000 So That She Might Buy
a Play Day.
The day is done. We close the
door of the shop behind us, and
leave our unfinished task for the
morrow.
We are tired, but we are young,
and youth is vigorous and pleasure
loving. So we quite disregard
fatigue and seek amusement.
The world looks on and whis-
pers of our amusements and criti-
cises. why does the working
girl fill the cheap dance halls
nightly?" it questions, believing it
has said something wondrously
wise.
Whirling to music and dancing
are expressions of youth. The
working girl cannot afford to at
tend the gorgeous charity balls.
She hears of them, longs for
them and initiates them in her
feeble way. She cannot smother
the longing, so she misses.
She hears of the grand opera.
Her heart hungers for the lights,
the music, the glittering stage.
She opens her worn purse, selects
the only coin she dare devote to
vain luxury and enters the nickel
theater. This stands to her hum
cry heart as a substitute for the
grand opera.
YOUTH-whether it is clad in
rags or riches, whether it is half
starved or over-fed, whether it is
crushed or pampered, cries out for
amusement.
This cry must be answered even
at sacrifice. To compromise for
ever and ever is sad and bitter
sacrifice.
The amusements of the mon
eyed people are inspiring, elevat-
ing, and they leave their stamp.
The amusements of the under
paid are crushing. deadening, and
they also leave their stamp.
The work by which we live
marks us as its own. The OBJ
server knows us for what we are.
The entertainments in which we
indulge influence our character,
our habit of speech, our outlook
on life, even our gait.
Every woman is naturally a
lover of art, and when ] meet a
girl who is truly satisfied with
something less 1 know that our
System" has done it's work with
a mighty flourish. 1t has killed
part of her-the better part
and left her ghost to be sneered
at by the madding mob.
oh, whispering world! Criti-
else if you will, but where there
is youth there is going to be en-
tertainment and amusement. And
those who cannot afford the
higher planes will sink to any
level i'm quest of joy.
The land is rich with splendor
and plenty. Why should Amer
ica's daughters content them
selves with shadows?
The wise world goes on and on
believing the amusements we &C
cept are the amusements we de-
sire, and are the only ones we
are fitted for.

More Grain Should BE Raised.


The Central Point Herald is
mourning because the mill at that
place has been idle nearly all the
past year. This is certainly getting !
off on the wrong foot. When the
Rogue River Valley, the most fertile
place the sun ever shone on, got in
the habit of sending abroad for its
feed and vegetables it made the big
gest mistake in its career. 1t was
the hankering after the inordinate
profits alleged to exist in the fruit
business which turned the rancher
and newcomer from safe lines to seek
after "easy money" in fruit and fruit
lands. The mills, however, are COM
ing back into their own, along with
the dairy COW and the pig, and the
future financial stability of the val
ley is assured.
Another fact worth mentioning is
the similarity between the potato sit
uation and the fruit business. Last
year potatoes were a big crop all
over the country, as were apples
AS a result few planted potatoes this
year and the east will have to import
many from abroad. Last year ap-
Piles were big crop and low in price
and some dug up their orchards and
many more failed to give them prop
er attention. This year prices were
high and orchards, where properly
cared for, were profitable. This sit
uation is peculiar to crops which can
not be held over Wheat, oats and
corn, with an abnormally large crop,
do not go so far below value as do
perishable crops, because there are
always far-sighted men who will buy
them for storage. Neither do they
soar as high on single short crop,
because there is always quite large
surplus in storage to draw from.
Men as rule make a mistake
when they switch to or from crop
because of a scarcity the year be-
fore. The crop that was scarce this
year is apt to be the one that will be
plenty next and vice versa, and the
most successful farmers are those
Who have chosen the crops, in suffi-
cient diversity to keep up their soil
and be certain of returns from some
one or more, and who have persis-
tently followed that line, getting
neither over elated by single stroke
of unusual profits or deserting a
crop to which their conditions were
suited because of a single failure OF
