''HOw Are Your Bowels?" A Simple
Remedy That Guarantees Good

Trace the origin of the commoner
Ills of life and almost invariably you
will find that constipation was the
cause. 1t is not to be expected that
a mass of fermented food can remain
in the system beyond it's time without
vitiating the blood and affecting the
nerves and muscles. 1t congests the
entire body.
The results are colds, fevers, piles,
headaches and nervousness, with its
accompanying indigestion and sleep
lessness. There is only one thing to
do, and that is to remove the trouble;
and when nature seems unable to do
It. outside aid is necessary. You will
find that best of all outside aids a

MI. Bremner came to the sanitar-

vainly tried to cure him. It was
found that the disease had made such
1nroads upon him that little could be
done to help him and that the fight
against death would be made with all
the odds against him. Mr. Bremner
was optimistic and tubes containing
100000 worth of radium were ap-
piled to the growth.

Cites German Defenses.
\ dispatch to the Daily Mail from ST.
Petersburg says:
THE German defense in east Prussia
is based on four parallel and strongly
fortified lines, running north and south.
Each is supported by natural obstacles.
The foremost three lines are distinct
groups of numerous lakes. The fourth
and strongest defense line is the Wis
tula river. extending from the Russian
frontier to the Baltic.
Outside these defense lines the Ger
mans have on the northeast the very
strong fortress of Konigsberg, with the
fortified advance positions at Libau
and Tapiau. This is situated on the
flank of the Russian line, and must be
invested, necessitating the detachment
of a considerable force.
Frontal Attack Difficult.
The foremost three defense lines are
extensively fortified There are i'm
portant and permanent fortifications at
-AIlenstein and Boyen. and the whole is
hlled with lakes. leaving only COM
paratively narrow defiles for the ad-
vancing troops. The country is full of
fortifications partly provisional and
partly field works, most of which are
armed with heavy guns. frontal at
tack would be a very difficult task.
THE Vistuia from 500 to 1000 yards
wide. is guarded by six fortresses. The
largest are at Thorn in the south and at
Danzlg in the north. Between them are
Fordon, Kuhn, GraudenZ and Martens
burg.
"A man entitled to rank among the
