CASCARETS FOR
YOUR BOWELS IF
HEADACHY, SICK
FOR BILIOUSNESS, BAD BREATH,
COLDS, INDIGESTION AND
CONSTIPATION.
ENJOY LIFE! LIvEN YOUR LIVER
AND BOWELS TO- NIGHT AND
FEEL FINE.

Your tongue is coated Look inside
your watch cover and see! That's bad
business. What have you been eat
ing? What were you drinking?
What kind of lazy chair did you
take exercise in? Now don't think
it doesn't matter, because, it's your
bowels that talk now every time you
open your mouth. That doesn't help
your popularity, nor your earning ca
pacity. Besides, person with bad
bowels is in a bad way and a coated
tongue or a bad breath are sure
signs of bad bowels and poor digest
ion.
Why don't you get 10-cent box of
Cascarets at any drug store and give
your liver and thirty feet of bowels
the incest, gentlest cleansing they
ever experienced. Take one or two
Cascarets tonight and wake up feeling
fine and fit. All Headaches, Dizziness,
Biliousness, Bad Breath, Stomach
Sourness, Cold and Constipation gone
wake up with your head clear,
tongue clean, stomach sweet, liver
and bowels active, step elastic and
complexion rosy.
Cascarets work while you sleep
never grippe or sicken. Cascarets act
so gently that you hardly realize you
have taken thorough cathartic. They
don't bother you all next day like
salts, pills, oil or acknowledgements
being perfectly harmless is best chill
dren's Iavative.-Adv.

MAY INCREASE TOLLS
OF PANAMA CANAL
BIZ ASSOCIATED PRESS.

Washington, Dec. Possibility of
a recommendation for an increase in
Panama Canal tolls is seen in a
statement today of canal expenses
and revenues for the year ended last
June 30. Expenses amounted to more
than double the receipts of the canal
proper, though if the revenues from
the Panama railroad are taken into
consideration, the excess of expendi-
lures over revenues would be only
SIT per cent, and had there been no
slides during the year, the revenues
would have exceeded expenses.
No allowance is made, however,
for a depreciation and interest fund
which would require $12,00O,O00 a
year. Total expenses of the COM
bined canal and railroad were $780,
327,504 and the revenues were $27,-
339, 1888, or 81, 987 ,615 less than the ex-
penses.
The statement shows that the Suez
canal, whose tonnage has been falling
off rapidly, increased its rate twice
this year and further increase is an
nounce dior January 1, which will
make them $1.50 per ton for loaded,
and $1.00 per ton for ballast ships.
Panama tolls have remained at $1.2O
and 72 cents, respectively.
