Mosquitoes, flies and other ins

Summer Constipation Dangerous

summer G0nSClpHJlOn dangerous
Constipation in summer time is
more dangerous than in the fall,
winter or spring. The food you
eat is often contaminated and
is more likely to ferment in your
stomach. Then you are apt to
drink much cold water during
the hot weather, thus iniuring
your stomach. Collie, Fever,
Ptomaine Poisoning and other
ills are natural results. Po-Do-
Lax will keep you well, as it in
creases the Bile, the natural lax
alive which ribs the bowels Of
the congested poisonous waste.
Po-Do-Lax will make you feel
better. Pleasant and effective.
Take a dose tonight. so cents

Her Death Was a Great Shock

Character.

Upon the edge of crater which led
into coal mine there once grew a
snow white flower. Dust from the
coal had settled about the mouth of
the tGnnel and covered all things
near with its CRIME save the single
snow white flower. A traveller one
Gay noticed the snow white flower so
strangely contrasted with it's environ
ment. Upon close examination it was
found that the surface of the flower
was enamel-like in it's crystal nature.
Dust fell thereon but would not at
tach thereto. 1t remained snow white
IN the midst of the dust from the
black coal.
SO it is with some of Gods choicest
spirits in this world. The purity, gen
tleness and sweetness of their lives is
brought out in sharp relief in this
world of suffering and sin. Such spr-
Its seem to rise above yet live in the
heart of earth's toll and din and
strife.
1t was great shock to the people

A short time ago the brethren of
