Nature Still
Casts Out Devils
Through the 5,ooo,o 900 Pores Of Your
Body and Through the Bowels,
Liver and Kidneys.

If you don't think they're REAL
Devils, just let them accumulate, as
in constipation and biliousness. A
whole brood of demons appear, such
as Indigestion, flatulency, heartburns,
palpitation, dizziness. jaundice, conges-
ton of the Liver. Later these grow
into Bright's Disease. Typhoid. Ma
laria, etc.
Winters fine time for these Devils
to get in their work, because the
pores are not open, and what you
sweated out in summer must be
strained off by the Liver in winter
and the Liver dams or clogs with bile.
PODOIAx RELEASES THE BILE
There's one thing these devils can't
stand, and that is Bile. Bile is Ma
ture's great cleanser and disinfectant.
When It's damned up, all the above
troubles appear. Release it and they
disappear like mist before the rising
sun. That's why salts, mineral waters,
oil and common laxatives fail. They
don't release the Bile, but merely
flush the intestines.
Podophyllin Common Mandrake o.,
May-Apple Root is Natures own gift
to mankind. Since tho days OF the
patriarchs it has proven the one harm
less and certain cure for constipation,
because 1t releases the damned up

is for the whole family, children es-
pecially.
You can reason. You know that q

be fit for blood food without the Bile
to purify it. We insist that PoDoLax
will start the Bile-that it is done
gently without gripping, without sick.

SURE way TO GET
RID OF DANDRUFF
End Itching Scalp and Stop Failing
t,air-At Once.

There is one sure way that never
fails to remove dandruff completely
and that Is to dissolve it. This de-
stroys it entirely. To do this, Just
get about four ounces OF plain, oroi-
nary liquid arvon; apply 1t at night
when retiring; use enough to moisten
the scalp and rub it in gently with
the finger tips.
BY morning most, If not all, Of your
dandruff will be gone, and three or
four more applications will complete
" dissolve and entirely destroy. eusry
single sign and trace of 1t no matter
how much dandrufY you may have.
You will find, too, that all itching
and digging OF the scalp will stop in
stantly, and your hair will be fluffy,
lustrous, glossy, silky and soft, ana
look and feel q hundred times bettsr.
II you want to keep your hair look
ing rich, do by oil means get rid OF
dandruff, for nothing destroys the hair
SO quickly. It not only starves the
hair and makes 1t fall out, but rt
makes it stringy. straggly, dull, dry,
brittle and iifeless, and everybody
notices 1t. You can get liquid arvon
at any drug store. 1T Is inexpensive,
and four ounces is all you will need.
This simple remedy has never been
known to fail.

Over Half of All Sickness Caused
By ClOgged-Up Weakened Kidneys
Hundreds Suffering Don't Know IT, Back


1t is a we'll recognized fact among
physicians today, that the greater
part of all sikness can be avoided by
keeping the kidneys working properly.
This is even more important than
for the bowels to move regularly, be-
cause the kidneys and bladder are the
filterers and sewers of the body II
you suffer with pains in the back or
sides, bladder or urinary disorders,
lumbago, rheumatism, dizziness, puffy
swellings under the eyes or in the
feet and ankles, nervousness, tireu
and worn-out feeling. or any OF this
many other symptoms of kidney
trouble, don't neglect yourself anoth-
er day and run the risk of serious
complications. Secure an original
package of Croyone. which costs but
a trifie, take three doses a day, for q
few days, and you will be surprised
how entirely different you will feel.
CroXone oyercomes the very worst
cases because it removes the cause OF
The daily Gate City., 1914-02-20

such troubles 1t soaks right in anG
cleans out the kidneys and makes
them filter out all the poisonous waste
matter and uric acid that lodges IN
the joints and muscles, causing rheu-
matism; soothes and hsals the blan-
der and quickly ends all such troubles.
1t is the most wonderful remedy
ever made for the purpose. You will
find 1t entirely different from any
thing you have ever used. There is
nothing else on earth to compare with
it. It matters not how old you are or
how long you have suffered, the very
principle of Croxone is such that it is
practically impossible to take 1t into
the human system without results.
You can secure an original package
of Croxone from any ffrst-class drug
store, All druggists are authorized to
personally return the purchase price
If Croxone fails to give the desired
results the very first time you use it.

water.

When your kidneys hurt and your
back feels sore, don't get scared and
proceed to load your stomach with a
lot of drugs that excite the kidneys
and irritate the entire urinary tract.
Keep your kidneys clean like you
keep your bowels clean, by flushing
them with mild, harmless salts
which removes the body's urinous
waste and stimulates them to their
normal activity. The function of the
kidneys is to filter the blood. In "a
hours they strain. from it 500 grains
of acid and waste, so we can readily
understand the vital Importance Of
keeping the kidneys active.
Drink lots of water-you can't
drink too much; also get from any
pharmacist about four ounces OF Jad
Salts; take tablespoonful in glass
of water before breakfast each morn
ing for few days and your kidneys
will act fine This famous salts is
made from the acid Of grapes and
lemon juice, combined with lithia,
and has been used for generations to
clean and stimulate c,ogged kidneys;
also to neutralize the acids in urine
so it no longer is source of irrita-
ton, thus ending bladder weakness.

LENTEN SEASON
BEGINS FEBRUARY 25
This ls Twenty Days Later Than II
s. Came Last
Season.

One who has consulted the almanac
with care and is we'll informed regard
ing the movable feasts, writes as fol
lows:
Ash Wednesday. which this year
falls on February 25, marks the begin
ming OF the Lenten season, and Is the
date from which for forty days, not
counting Sundays, there is pause in
the round OF human festiyity and in
Some sort Of giving up OF the mere
pleasures Of life. Unlike the New
Pear, Lent carries with 1t something
more than a merely human desire or
resolve to do good or to make sacri-
fee; since 1t is religious and not
merely secular date, and is com
memorative Of those final days In the
life of Christ, and Of the great sacri-
fee. Under such circumstances It
Ills not strange that men and women In
a Christian world should observe Lent
or that they should abate little the
pleasures of this world in contempla-
ton OF the sacrifice which was in very
truth that far-off, divine event toward
which the whole creation moved
& In 1913 the date OF Ash Wednesday
was twenty days earlier than this
year, and for this reason the Easter
date was on March %, instead Of April
12, as It is this year. Easter Is, In
fact, movable feast instead Of fixed
one, as is Christmas; and was made
permanently so by the decree OF the
council of Nicea, which ordained that
the observance of Easter should be
on the first Sunday following the date
of the vernal equinox, which Is March
81. The latest date on which Easter
might fall is April Is, SO that there
are In all thirty-fve passfble dates
for Its observance. In fact, the East
er date comes from the Jewish Pass
over, with which it is intimately con-
nected in the biblical story ina which
occurs on the Saturday preceding Eas-
ter-this year April II. In the Greek
and Russian calendar the actual date
| being fixed by the equinox, is the
same as in the Gregorian, but in the
almanac of the churches it is given
is March 80, which is the difference
between the new style calendar which
we use and the Julian or old style
which in all countries where the Greek
/ is the national church still obtains.
"In the year 1916 Easter will fall
on April 4, in 1915 on April %. in
1917 on April 8, in 1918 on March %
in 1919 on April 20 and in 1920 on
April again. Not since 1918 has il
come SO early as March %, and not
until 1943 will it come as late as April
%. No person now living, or his
son or daughter, is likely again to see
an Easter as early as March 20, since
there will be no such Easter date
until after the year 2O00..s y

The National Grand Opera company
which Is having its troubles in Den
yer as told yesterday in United
Press dispatch to The Gate City, is
the company which Jesse q. Baker OF
this city is promoting. Mr.. Baker is
expected to arrive here soon, and
this coupled with today's advices from
Denver gives rise to the belief among
his friends that he will not continue
the tour.
The company started in Montreal
with an eight weeks engagement,
and since then has been touring In q
number OF American cities. The
company was at Denver when the or
chestra and chorus promoted strike
which resulted in suspension OF the
performance, and ended in the de-
mand of the big tenor for his trunks
and his subsequent vanquishment OF
six policemen, when they attempted
to block his rush to the box office
The company was booked for Sioux
City, Omaha, Des Moines Davenport,
st. Louis and Chicago. While nothing
definite as to the future has been re-
ceived from Mr.. Baker, it is believed
he will abandon the trip now
Mr.. Baker has been busy with the
company, and has not found time to
do much writing, but in the messages
which his friends here have received
he has mentioned his difficulties with
the chorus. 1t is evidently the same
old story Of artistic temperament. The
stars have not been hard 70 handle
evidently.
Yesterday a benefit performance
for the chorus members was given
and one will be repeated today at
Denver. The following United Press
dispatch tells of the performance yes
terday:
DENVER, Colo, Feb. 2o-For-
eign singers many unable to speak
English, crowded to the city hall
today to attempt to express their
thanks to the city commission
ers for promoting benefit per
formance for the members of the
chorus of the National Grand
Opera Company of Canada,
stranded here. Two performances
were given yesterday and two
- more will be staged tomorrow. 1t
is expected that $4,000 will thus
be raised to provide food for the
chorus teople and furnish mon
ey to send them home. Many Of
the singers are destitute. Stars
of the company offered services
free.
