Guard Your Children
Against Bowel Trouble

Many children at an early age
become conshpated, and frequently
serious consequences result. Not
being able to realize his own con-
dition, child's bowels should be
constantly watched, and a gentle
laxative given when necessary.
DR.. Miles Laxative Tablets are
especially well adapted to women
and children. The Sisters of
Christian Charity, 53I Charles ST.,
Luzerne, Pa, who attend many
cases Of sickness say Of them:
"some time ago we began using DR..
Miles Laxative Tablets and find that
we like them very much. Their action
is excellent and we are grateful for
having been made acquainted with
them. We have had good results in
every case and the Sisters are very
much pleased"
The form and flavor of any medi-
cine is very important, no matter
who is to take it. The taste and
appearance are especially important
when children are concerned. All
parents know how hard it is to give
the average child medicine" even
though the taste IS partially dis
guised. In using DR.. Miles Lax
alive Tablets, however, this diff
Guilty is overcome The shape of
the tablets, their appearance and
candy-like taste at once appeal to
any child, with the result that they
are taken without objection.
The rich chocolate flavor and
absence of other taste, make DR..
Miles Laxative Tablets the ideal
remedy for children.

the price is returned. Ask your

Congressman Nicely has introduced
bill in the House of Representative
which is intended to give impetus to
road building throughout the country,
and especially in West Virginia. The
bill provides that the federal prisoners
sentenced to more than five years I'm
prisonment may be worked on the
roads in any State or county where
they are imprisoned. 1t also provides
that all federal prisoners regardless of
the length of their sentences, may be
worked in the preparation of road ma
terial, the same to be used on the max
ing of roads only and not sold. This
bill. if it is passed, will give West Vir-

PATRONS DAY.

Many citizens of Bismarck probably
do not realize what an excellently
equipped high school the city has. 1t
stands second to none in the state.
A trip through the building is a reve-
lation Of the progress made in equip
ment.
The schools of today are decidedly
different from what they were ten and
twenty years ago. An inspection of
the local high school impresses one
with this change most vividly.
In order that the residents of the
city may get in touch with the excel
lent high school administering daily
to the needs of its youth, patrons
days have been established, when the
public is welcome to come and in
spect the city's educational plant.
This is an excellent idea and the
opportunity afforded should be taken
advantage of. A community is often
prone to look upon its schools as in
stitutional automatons.
Schools consist of more than stud
ents, faculty and equipment. Unless
the community is Titally interested
and show it in a practical way
through occasional visits and words
of announcement, the system lacks
the punch that makes for greater ef
ficiency.
Bismarck is proud OF its school sys
tenn. 1t has backed that system 10y
ally with its moral and financial sup
port. These patrons days, however
