- necessary. As age advances the stomach
and bowel muscles lose their elasticity and no
longer respond readily. The result is constpa-
ton, or dyspepsia, bliousness, sour stomach,
bloating, drowsness after eating, belching, head
ache, etc.
The foregoing was about the condition that
Mr. VIM A. Rocker, Ga Vienna ST., Rochester, N.
" found himself in some time ago. A good
friend persuaded him to take DR.. Caldwell's
Syrup Pepsn, a widely known laxative tonic that
has been on the market for two generations.
After brief use of it he writes that if he had
the last bottle obtainable he would not part with
il for hundred dollars-and Mr.. Rocker is not
an especially rich man either-for he considers
himself entirely we'll. Another noteworthy case
is that Of Mrs. Margaret Barringer, of Newark,
Ohio, who is 80.
DIR. Caldwel's Syrup Pepsn is without doubt
Americas greatest household remedy Its mild
action recommends it especially for babies, wom-
en- and old folks, for these should not take dras-
tic cathartics and purgatives such as pills, pow
ders, salt waters, ETC. Your druggist sells Syrup
Pepsin at fifty cents and one dollar bottle, and
you should always have bottle in the house.
Thousands of old users always have the dollar
size, as it is more economical. Results are guar
anteed or money will be refunded.

In going through The Day Book of

When police backed two patrol

found in a hall and twenty-five of the

NEW YORK GANG WAR TAKES
FIVE LIVES ON SUNDAY
: New York, May 25.-Gang killers
whose battles on both. the East and
West Sides of Manhattan resulted in
the murder of five men, the fatal
wounding of three and the injury of
many more were sought by the police
today after the outbreak of disorder
had eliminated in a bloody street
fight in Hell's Kitchen.
Twenty-Five suspects were gather
ed in by the police. They spent last
night vainly seeking for those whose
blood spattered the pavements after
the HelIs Kitchens ARRAY. Every
man hit was spirited away and today
all had evaded the searching detec-
tiVes. '..
Twenty men, firing promiscuously,
filed the street at Ninth avenue and
West Forty-sixth street when the
battle broke out, They were mem
bers of the HelI's Kitchen and the
Stryker,s farm bands. Hundreds of
the jewellers in tenements there fed
in terror when the battle began and
several women and children narrow
~ escaped the flying lead. The rattle
of pistols was heard in the West
Forty-seventh street police station,
just a block away, and reserves were
hustled around the corner. Before
they arrived, however, the feud was
over, the gunner had scattered and
only a few pools of blood on the paw
ing stones showed that some of the
bullets went home.

SOLOMON MAN SAYS FRIEND
SHOT AND ROBBED HIN


Solomon, Oct. 30.-Bert Nicker-
SON, a transient here, walked into
town last evening with two bullets
IN his back and bullet wound back
of his ear and told q story In which
he accused Harvey Medley. who has
been living here short time. OF
shooting him with q revolver and
robbing him OF $50.
Nickerson's story is this: He and
Medley went out west OF town to
what IL known as .'The Jungles."
Just across the Saline county line.
in search OF q crap game. When they
neared the spot. Medley said. There
is a game" Nickerson turned In the
direction Neeley pointed. with his
back toward Medley who began
shooting at him, one bullet striking
MIN behind the ear but grazing his
skull, and two bullets lodging in his
back. Then Medley robbed Nicker-
son of $50 and ran away. Nickerson
managed to make his way into town
and got doctor. The bullets were
taken out and he is not seriously
injured. Nickerson says Medley fired
five shots at him. two going wide.
Neeley denies Nickerson's story.
and says that third man held them
up and shot and robbed Nickerson.
Sheriff Anderson came down from

returned, to Solomon. Nickerson was

SECOND CLASS CITIES
PAY STORM SEWER COST

A number of second class cities
in Kansas may now go ahead and
build storm sewers with some def
rite idea against whom the expense
may be charged. Second class cities
with a population of less than 49,
900 may construct storm sewers
and charge the cost against the en-
tire city, according to an opinion
written by w. E. Davis, state audi
tor.
In a letter to w. j. Fitzgerald,
finance commissioner Of Dodge City,
Auditor Davis held that there is
authority in chapter 102, laws of
1911, for the levying of the cost Of
construction of storm water sewers
or drains in cities of the second
class under 10000 population, and
authority in chapter 112, laws of
1918, to authorize the charging Of
the expense against the whole city.
ut is therefore argued" wrote
Davis, land with much force 1t
seems to me, that the construction
of the sewer or drain to care for
the snrfare or storm water is a
necessar. incident to the improve
ment OF streets"
Until the Davis opinion, there
had been no definite understanding
as to how these ritie; could go
about the construction of storm
sewers. The law was not specific as
70 whether the casts should be
against the property owners
n the city as whole. with the re-
snlt that the property owners gen
A~elly blocked any such improve
rents.

DEADBHAx LIsr Is LECAL
nor rHE KANSAS MERCHANTS

The Kansas antitrust law will
prevent a group OF merchants or
business men from fixing prices but
II win not prevent the merchants of
q town forming q combination by
which certain dead beats in the
town will be refused credit. This
is the Interpretation OF the law by
John 8. Dawson. attorney general.
and sent to the Kansas Retail
Butchers association.
1.-THE antitrust law prevents re-
strictive agreements Of all kinds"
said the attorney general. But 1t
does not prevent the business men
OF a town reaching an agreement
that they will not sell any goods on
credit to William Deadbeat. The
merchants can do this individually
Just as well as not but II they think
an agreement is necessary, or II
they form a credit rating association
to handle their credit business l do
not believe they will be violating
the law.
"But the merchant must not 60
into an agreement not to buy, not
to sell or fix the prices at which
they will sell or buy goods. That
would be unlawful and they should
not refuse to sell to an individual
whose credit is nil. II he offers the
cash. But the merchants can refuse
to sell to him ON credit and all the
merchants In the town can agree
not to sell to that man unless he
pays cash. 1t is protecting their own
business, not discrimination
against him in favor of some one
else"
The antitrust law does not con-
template prosecution of wholesale
sale or retail merchants who are
members Of trade associations when
the association condemns certain
practices like cutting rates or prices
but the merchant must be able to
show that he was not compelled to
follow the action of the association
and If he did follow 1t that he did
1t as an individual. Any association
that attempts to regulate the busi-
ness affairs OF the members so far
as restrictive measures are concern
ed where the entire buying or SELL
ing public is concerned violates the
law.

She is Too Beautiful.

A certain girl, being obliged to
earn her living, was instructed in
stenography and was given good
position, but as every man in the es-
tablishment promptly fell in love
with her. she had to resign. Then
she was made a saleswoman in a
dry goods store, but there. again.
she became target for Cupid to
such an extent that her counter was
crowded with men-shoppers from
morning to night. They bought lit
tie and fingered long, in spite of the
highly proper department of their
fair enchantress. Again the poor
girl has had to resign. Now she is
receiving a training in sewing. 1t
is thought that she may possibly be
able to fight off her suitors if she
works in the back room of a dress
makers establishment all day. She
is not impressionable, and the man
who wishes to marry her must be of
especially high order or she will not
fall in love with him. This is no
fancy sketch, but relation of facts.
Nobody need send for her address,
for it will not be given.-Kate Up
son Clark, in Leslie's.
