Woman's Health
Requires Care

Women are so constituted as to be
peculiarly susceptible to constipation,
and their general health depends in
large measure on careful regulation
and correction of this tendency. Their
delicate organisms rebel at the VOL
ence Of cathartic and purgative rem
edles. which. while they may afford
temporary relief. shock the system
and seriously disturb the functional
organs. A mild laxative is far prefer
able and, Il properly compounded,
much more effective.

HUNTERS RANKS ARE DEPLETED

Stringent

''The high cost of hunting is driV-
ing me maids the popular re-
frain of Rusk county nimrods dur
ing these days of the open hunting
season. The price Of shotgun shells
and rifle cartridges has advanced
from ten to fifteen per cent while
the prices Of the various makes Of
guns also show an increase.
The European war is the immedi-
ate cause of the raise in price of
hunting material, but local dealers
in the same do not attribute the
falling off in sales to this advance
in price; According to S. L. Chick
er, OF Sands Hardware, the de-
crease in the sales Of hunting sup
plies is due to the stringency of the
game laws and to the general scar
city Of game, which has tended to a
corresponding decrease in the mum

this statement is cited the fact that
the number Of hunting permits has
decreased more than 25 per cent

ourselves something which we need
to improve our existence. 1t is
sermon preached to us in a wonder
full five reel picture and it will do
every man, woman and child lot
of good to meet this wonderful child
character. There are times when
despite our every effort the tears
come to our eyes and we find
thickness arises in our throats
which has been inspired by our emo
ton. To see Jewel and not be af-
fected by her presence is to be with
out a soul

OVERLAND ECONOMY

ON GASOLINE
In a test recently conducted b.
the Royal Automobile Club of Lon
don, England, a Model SO Overland
touring car covered a distance of
1873 miles over a rolling country,
on three and three-quarters gallons
of gasoline.
The test was held under the OBJ
servance of the Royal Automobile
Club, an organization officially rep
resenting all motor interests in the
United Kingdom.
It is to this organization that the
various manufacturers appeal when
any question is raised as to the
merits or capabilities of thair prod
uct Any question handed down by
this governing body is accepted as
final by all parties concerned.
The Overland used for the test
was selected from a stock OF Al new
cars that had just been received by
the London distributor The officials
in charge were present when the
car was unboxed and noted the time
consumed in making carburetor and
other necessary adjustments. This
amounted to three minutes and 80
seconds.
In the course of the run the car
had a combination Of up and down
hill work. The result of 20:13 miles
per Imperial gallon or 20 ton mil S
per Imperial gallon of gasoline is
considered an exceptionally good per-
formance, in view of the fact that
the car was brand new and prac-
tically no time was allowed in MAX
ing adjustments or preparing it for
the trial.
