Most Old People
Are Constipated

The wear of years impairs the
action of the bowels. With ad-
vancing age people are disposed to
restricted activity and exercise,
which is responsible for the con-
stipated condition of most old folks.
The digestive organs are more sem
sittve TO the demands made upon
them and rebel more quickly.
A mild. effective remedy for con-
stipation. and one that is especially
suited to the needs of elderly peo-
pie. women and children. is the COM

y few years ago. among dietlcianS.
there was considerable criticism of the
importance potatoes had in the average
child'S diet. The pendulum is rather
swinging the other way now and GER
tainly many children thrive on them.
Potatoes are ouc-quarter TO one-third

contain no CclluloSa which might make
them conStipating if fruit in some form
was not added To the meal. The ratio
of the protein element in potato to the
non-protein is about the same as i'll
bread. Like bread they contain no fat
and for your > l-2-ycar-old child they
should be eaten with beef juice or cream
rather than butter. They take the place
of bread If bread and potato are both
eaten without eggs or meat juice, the
child gets too much starch.

The Chronicle has had strong
hopes for the past several months
that Governor Alexander was
gong to prove a second Moses
come to deliver the demo, ratio
party of Idaho into the promised
land but in the light of his act
ions since assuming Office we
fear he has his party headed for
the depths of the Dead Sea and
right here we fall out of the
ranks and watch the procession
go by. Not satisfied with ap-
pointing c. O. Broxon, a rank
bull-mooser, as his private secre-
tary, the governor jumps entire
ly out of bounds again in his
message to the legislature and
demands rigid prohibition law
by legislative enactment, as we'll
as submitting the question to the
voters by constitutional amend
ment, which former demand is
entirely at variance with the
platform of his party. Not only
this, for during his campaign
the governor made promises to
stand strictly on his party plat
form concerning the la Tor ques-
ton and owes his election large
ly to these pledges which he is
now disregarding. Just how he
hopes to get by with such tactics
we are at a loss to understand.
The governor is largely correct
IN his views on the tax question
and may be abe to ACCOMPLISH
much for the state in reduction
OF taxes, but we predict pretty
hard shedding for him through
the session just the same.
