PAST FIFTY? YOU
 NEED ''CASCARETS"
What Glasses Are to Weak Eyes, Cascarets Are to Weak Bowe1s-a Gent Box Will Truly Amaze You.


 Most old people must give to the bowels some regular help, else they suffer from constipation. The con ditiOn is perfectly natural. It is just as natural as it is for old people to walk slowly. For age is never so active as youth. The muscles are less elastic. And the bowels are muscles
 So all old people need Cascarets One might well refuse to aid weak eyes with, glasses as to neglect this gentle aid to weak bowels. The bowels must be kept active. This is important at all ages, but never so much as at 50.
 Age is not a time for harsh physics. Youth may occasionally whip the bowels into activity But a lash can't be used every day. What the bowels of the old need is a gentle and nat ural tonic. One that can be con- stantly used without harm. The only such tonic is Cascarets and they cost only 10 cents per box at any drug store. They work while you sleep Adv.

END OF QUARREL
IN ROAD MATTER
CASE AGAINST ALBERT PIKE MOL
PRESSED IN COURT OF RECORD
YESTERDAY ON ADVICE OF THE
COUNTY COMMISSIONERS.

The closing chapter to matter
which has caused much talk among
the parties interested was written yes
terday by Judge Kirke Monroe, Of the
court of record, when he made an en-
try in the criminal docket of that court
mol pressing the case against Albert
Pike, who was charged with obstruct-
Ing a public highway.
The controversy among those inter
ested arose over a road which Pike
built around his land in. the extreme
southwestern part of the county, after
he had closed a road which passed
through his land, the latter act being
accomplished with permission from
the board of county commissioners. He
was given the right to close the road
through his land with the understand
ing that he build one around IL of
equal quality, which he did. But OBJ
lection to the road which Pike built
around his land was made by several
parties, who represented to the county
commissioners that the road was not
built according. to agreement
At a meeting of the commissioners a
month or so ago they decided that the
road that Pike built was satisfactory
TO them.
The information charging Pike with
obstructing the public highway was
filed some time ago, but was with
