Gently cleanse your liver and
sluggish bowels while
you sleep.
Get a 10-cent box.

Sick headache, biliousness, dizzi-

breath-always trace them to torpid
liver; delayed, fermenting food in the
bowels or sour, gassy stomach.
Poisonous matter clogged in the in
testines, instead of being cast out
OF the system is re-absorbed into the
blood. When this poison reaches the
delicate brain tissue it causes con-
gestion and that dull, throbbing, sick

Cascarets Immediately cleanse the
stomach, remove the sour, undigested
food and foul gases, take the excess
bile from the liver and carry out all
the constipated waste matter and
poisons in the bowels.
A Cascaret tonight will surely
straighten you out by morning. They
work while you sleep--a 10-cent box
from your druggist means your head
clear, stomach sweet and your liver
and bowels regular for months. Adv.

Robert Burns.
Writing to an English friend from
Scotland in 1902, Henry Bickersteth
says: On December 81 almost every
body has a party, either to dine or
sup, the company almost entirely con-
sisting of young people. They wait
together till midnight strikes, at
which time every one begins to move,
and they all fall to work-at what?
Why, kissing! Each male is success
sively locked in a pure Platonic en-
brace with each female. This matter
is not at all confined to those, but
wherever man meets woman it is the
privilege Of this hour.
New Years gifts have taken many
different forms at different periods
from the eggs exchanged by the Per-
slams and the sacred branches of mis-
capon which the tenants in many Eng
lish counties were expected to pre-
sent to their landlords.
In the sixteenth century, gloves
were often given on New Years day,
and there is record of a certain Mrs.
More had decided a case, sending the
chancellor a pair Of gloves with 40
gold angels therein.
Mistress" wrote More, returning
the money. Since it we're against
manners to refuse a New Years gift,
am content to take your gloves, but,
as for the lining, I utterly refuse It."
What precisely is "Hogmanay?"
Etymologically, 1t HAS been derived
from the French "au-gui-menez,"

man French "a-gui-l'an-neuf," also an
association of the New Year and mis-
tletoe, seems likelier.

parts of England, of the going to the
parents bedroom on New Years

NOT TO BE CAUGHT MAPPING
Uncle lobe Lived Up to Ills Reputa'

His Bet.

There lives in a certain Vermont
town a quaint old character known
as Uncle Tobe." who is SO con.
servative of action and speech that 1t
is almost difficult at times to get any
thing definite from him. Uncle lobe.
like the Father of His Country, has the
reputation of never having told a lie,
and in addition he is so cautious OF
statement that he has never been
known to tell an innocent untrnth.
On one occasion his doctor, in con-
versation with friends touching Uncle
Tobe's characteristics, ventured to lay
bet Of five dollars that he could cause
Uncle lobe to tell what wasn't so. A
neighb0r promptly took the bet.
The doctor walked into Uncle Tobes
house next morning, and while he was
talking with the old man, the neighbor
who had taken the bet drove up to the
gate. Uncle lobe went to see what he
wanted. and then the doctor, as he had
agreed TO do, went out the back door
and hid in the barn.
Good morning, Tobe," said the Wis.
itor. lis the doctor in your house?"
He was there when | came out"

TAKE SALTS TO FLUSH
KIDNEYS IF BACK HURTS
Says Too Much Meat Forms Uric Acid
Which Clogs the Kidneys and

Most folks forget that the kidneys,

ged and need a flushing occasionally,
else we have backache and dull misery
in the kidney region, severe head
aches, rheumatic twinges, torpid liver
acid stomach, sleeplessness and all
sorts of bladder disorders.
You simply must keep your kidneys
active and clean, and the moment you
feel an ache or pain in the kidney
region, get about four ounces of Jad
Salts from any good drug store here,
take a tablespoonful in a glass Of
water before breakfast for a few days
and your kidneys will then act fine.
This famous salts is made from the
acid of grapes and lemon juice, COM
bined with lithia, and is harmless to
flush clogged kidneys and stimulate
them to normal activity. 1t also neu-
tralizes the acids in the urine so it
no longer irritates, thus ending blad-
der disorders.

Ammunition Used in War.

How much ammunition does a med
ern army use? We shall not know
until after the war what the German
and the allied forces have been eX-
pending; but we know what the Ger
mans used in 1901. The total for
rifles was 3O,O00,0O0 cartridges, for
field artillery 1000 rounds. 1t is
worth noting that battles are much
less costly in ammunition than sieges.
The siege Of Strassburg alone cost,
weight for weight, three times the
amount Of ammunition used in all the
decisive battles and actions through
out the whole war. OF course these
figures are mere bagatelle COM
pared with those of the present strug-
gle, with it's millions OF soldiers and
its quick-fring guns and its week-long

Strange Scorpion Found.

A curious, strange specimen Of liz
ard or scorpion was captured by Wal
ter T. Todd near the trolley station
of the Chambersburg; Greencastle C
Waynesboro Street Railway company
at Highfield, Pa. The reptile, or what
not, was about eight inches in length
and the color of brick dust. 1t was
found lying on the ground only few
feet from the station and, on account
of the rain and cool weather, was un-
able to use it's locomotive powers very
actively and was easily captured.
The reptile had an elongated body
without scales, four short legs and
short tail, and its body was almost as
tough as rubber. Where it came from

GRANDMA USED SAGE TEA
TO DARKEN HER GRAY HAIR
She Made Up a Mixture OF Sage Tea
and Sulphur to Bring Back Color,
Gloss, Thickness.

Almost everyone knows that Sage
Tea and Sulphur, properly compound
ed, brings back the natural color and
lustre to the hair when faded, streaked
or gray also ends dandruff, itching
scalp and stops falling hair. Years
ago the only way to get this mixture
was to make it at home, which is
mussy and troublesome. Nowadays,
by asking at any store for "Wyeth's
Sage and Sulphur Hair Remedy" you
will get a large bottle of the famous
old recipe for about so cents.
Don't stay gray! Try it! No one
can possibly tell that you darkened
your hair as it does it so naturally
and evenly. You dampen sponge or
soft brush with it and draw this
through your hair, taking one small
strand at time, by morning the gray
hair disappears, and after another ap-
plication or two, your hair becomes
beautifully dark, thick and glossy
