Woman's Health
 Requires Care

Women are so constituted as to be peculiarly susceptible to consti- patton, and their general health depends in large measure on care ful regulation and correction of this tendcnIy. Their delicate or Ganisms rebel at the violence of cathartic and purgative remedies, which, while they may afford tenn porary relief, shock the system and seriously disturb the function al organs. A mild laxative is far preferable and, if properly com pounded, much more effective.
 The combination of simple lax ative herbs with pepsin sold in drug stores under the name of Dr. Caldwelrs Syrup Pepsin, is ideal for women's use. A free trial bot tie can be obtained by writing to Dr. w. B. Caldwell, 452 Washing ton St., Monticello, Ills.

old Men for Office Boys.
(New York Sun.)

NNe" gouh.D
 A Broadway business man was talk ing to 8 friend who was looking for Q good office boy. t
 "Cut out the boys" he said with confidence, and get an old man who Is willing to work for less than mans wages. I. began it about a year ago and l never did better thing.
 "I. got the suggestion from man not in business, but a physician. He had ordered some article or other which had not come promptly and he came in person to see about it. I told him, which was true. that had been bothered so by changing my of flee boys that I couldn't get it to him. Then he blew out at me and asked me why I didn't get an old man to do office work and I wouldn't have any more bother.
 Tt looked so different at first that I laughed at him. but he insisted SO that it was tho only cure that I con cluded to try it. I knew of an old chap, honest and living with his son, doing small jobs and helping all he could for his keep, and I asked him how he would like to be office boy for me. He laughed just as I did at first, but I insisted on his trying it and he agreed to come and do the best he could, but wouldn't guarantee that he would be satisfactory.
 He came the next day and though he was a bit slow at first he was al- ways ready and willing and in week or so I was so well satisfied with him that I wouldn't nave traded him for all the boys I had been bothered with for five years. Hc isn't perfect, nor is anybody for that matter, but he is reliable and honest: never soldiers on me, doesn't smoke cigarets or read dime novels. isn't fresh around the store, is always polite and is always on time.

At the request of Selectman New ton w.

 'Tonight's the night"
 1t is the night which great many tpf the voters have been waiting for patiently since tho first adjourned an nual town meeting last month, par- ticularly since the announcements in the Herald of the special meetings held by different bodies of voters.

The object of the meeting is to pass on tho report submitted by tho special examining committee at the last session, in March, and to vote on the recom- Amendations which have been suggest Bed, the most important of which is probably one relating to the install lation of new and modern system uf bookkeeping in the office of the town clerk.
