HOW 4 MAYS LIVER
 DEFENDS HIS LIFE

The liver is usually quiet, unassum- ing organ and we do not think much about it. It has, however, protective functions that should command respect.
 In the process of intestinal indigestion there are set free what physicians and scientists call "toxic bodies," in other words poisons. If these poisons enter in- to the circulation of the blood biliousness or sick headache results.
 Regularly the liver is able to destroy these toxic bodies but fit lags in it's work they quickly form in amounts excessive enough to be troublesome. Headache, constipation, dizziness, furred tongue, wind on the stomach, bad complexion are the means by which nature gives warning that the liver needs help.
 The remedy is to stimulate the liver by the use of Pinklets, the gentle laxative pills that do not gripe or purge but simply assist nature. Harsh laxatives and salts often do harm by aggravating the condi- tions they are taken to correct. Pinklets, taken regularly for time, really do COT. rect constipation.
 Your own druggist can supply you with Pinklets or they will be sent by mail, postpaid, by the Dr. Williams Medicine Co., Schenectady, N. Y., at 25 cents per bottle. Send for helpful pamphlet.

Berlin News CARTER WILL NOT BE :. CANDIDATE THIS YEAR TW'CtDtftatcd Aspfant WiA Not Oppose ScIcclman Cbney. LEWIS AND AUSTIN IN CONTEST
Kensington Man Said to Be Out For Tax Collector Nomination Again Local Jurors Selected.

Notwithstanding the wishes of his many friends, Assessor George B. Carter has decided not to be a can didate for nomination to the position of first selectman on the republican t<ket again this year, owing to the fact that he feels he would not be able to devote the proper amount of time to the duties of the office, if he were elected Work in connection with my farm and milk business keeps me pretty busy these days, said MT. Garter this morning in an interview with reporter, and I guess I'll have to drop out of politics Sr a while. I've had my fun out of it.'
 The announc ement of MT. Carter $ decision will come as complete sur prise to the majority of voters of the town who have not doubted in the least that the popular assessor would again be a candidate against Selectman William H. Gibney They Mill conclude that MT. Carter changed his mind rather suddenly when it $ considered that all during the sum- mer, he has been telling of his in- -entions of going into the fight in the fall, determined to win.
 In the two years that he has taken an active part in local politics, Mr. Garter has made a wonderful gain even though he opposed as strong man as Selectman William H. Gib- ney. He was defeated both times, but made good fight losing by eighty three votes in 1912 and by 12O last year.
 Since MT. Carter appeared in the political ring, two distinct factions nave been recognized in the ranks of Lhe republicans, MT. Gibney and his Followers being known as the Regu- ars or the Old Guard and MT. Carter md his sympathizers as the Jnsurg ents The Old Guard has proven it- self securely intrenched against the fierce attacks of the Insurgents. The .eguIars have had to hustle to main ain their supremacy. however. and come of the candidates were given ause to feel uncertain of renomina- ion at the caucus last year.
 Quite naturally, the Regulars will low watch the movements of the in ;urgents for the purpose of learning who they will put into the ring to oppose MT. ,Gibney. As yet, no one las been named, although several nave been mentioned. There is also tome speculation as to who will be sshe insurgent candidate for the posi- ion of second selectman, c. Fred Johnson having stated his intentions If withdrawing from the field, early n the spring. MT. Johnson was seen oday again and he stated that he has

WHY go TO JERIcHo?"
To the Biblical story told in the
tenth chapter, second book of Sam
uel, may be traced that derisive ex-
preston, GO to Jericho" Accord
ing to the prophet, King David sent
his servants into Ammon to express
to the reigning prince his sorrow at
the death of King Nahash. The
prince, believing that the servants
came to spy out the city," shaved off
one-half of their boards and cut their
garments in two, so they had to go
into hiding. When David heard what
had happened to his servants, he sent
word to them to tarry at Jericho until
The day book. [volume] (Chicago, Ill.) 1911-1917, 1914-04-09

their boards grew, as it was shameful
for men to appear without boards.
Hence, young and ight-headed men
of later days were hidden to ''go to
Jericho" or wait until your beard
grows" The. expression seems to
have lost its original meaning, how
ever, and now "go to Jericho" is
very mild form of rebuff.

I'm thinkin' that worm turns all
right, but he knows when to stop
turnin'. We gev the wimmin the

were they satisfied? Not on you're

still turnin' on us, read this in the
papers about Jim Bach an his wife.
Both of 'em in court because the
'Missus' says she has the right to lick
Jim every time he gets. full, and Jim
denying that right because it's al
ways been mans privilege to do the
chastisin'. But the courts were with
