Get a 10-cent box.

Are you keeping your bowels, liver. and stomach clean, pure and fresh with Cascarets, or merely forcing a passageway every few days with Salts, Cathartic Pills, Castor Oil or Purgative Waters?
 Stop having bowel wash-day. Let Cascarets thoroughly cleanse and reg ulate the stomach, remove the sour and fermenting food and foul gases, take the excess bile from the liver and carry out of the system all the constipated waste matter and poisons in the bowels.
 A Cascaret tonight will make you feel great by morning. They work while you sleep-never gripe, sicken or cause any inconvenience, and cost only 10 cents box from your store. Millions of men and women take a Cascaret now and then and never have Headache, Biliousness, Coated Tongue, Indigestion, Sour Stomach or Constipation. Adv.

MT. Caldwell claims that this amount has been due and accruing since the passage of the Patterson Act in 1909, relieving the commissioners, discharging the archi- tect and cancelltng the claimants con tract. In the session of 1909, a bill passed the Senate, appropriating S175,- 900 to pay such amounts as might have been found due the former con- tractors, by a board of arbitration con- sisting of E. A. McCulloch, Jacob Trieber and John Rogers, who were selected by the state. But in the last hours Of the session the bill was defeated by vote of two or three in the house. In some form or another the claim has been before each of the two subsequent sessions, and will soon, it is understood, be brought again to the attention of the General Assembly.

The third week Of the legislative session was characterized by efforts to advance Prohibition legislation. The White bill, which it's friends have dubbed the Coming Bill," to distin- guish it from the Going Bill," had been read once, and several intellectual attempts were made to advance it to the third reading, but 1t lacked the necessary two-thirds A submission bill was indefinitely postponed by the friends of Prohibition after Governor Hays sent special message endors- ing statewide statutory legislation.

 Two amendments were adopted in the senate.
