Remedy Prescribed !
BY Many Doctors
Compound Of Simple Laxative
Herbs Proves Most

DR.. w. A. Evans, writing for tho
Chicago Tribune, makes the assertion
that practically everyone, at some time
or other. suffers from constipation.
This applies regardless Of age or con-
dition in life.
The congestion Of stomach waste In
the bowels is evidenced in various
ways; bloat. eructat1on Of foul stom-
ach gases, sick headache, languor, all
indicate constipation, and call for
prompt attention, not only to relieve
the present discomfort but also to
avoid possible disease that follows
neglect Of this important function.
Harsh cathartics and violent purga-
tives should not be employed, as these
afford only temporary relief, while they
serve to shock the entire system. A
mild laxative such as DR.. Caldwelps
Syrup Pepsin is far preferable and is
now the remedy generally used and
prescribed by many doctors. It is free
from opiate or narcotic drugs, acts
easily and pleasantly, without gripping
or other pain and is safe, effective
family remedy.

that the pofi taxes shall be due and
payable on May first and commitment
shall be made to the collector prior to
that date"
Many boards Of local assessors have
believed the above section to require
In all cases two separate collectors
books and warrants for the purpose Of
legally committing the above taxes.
To correct the above impression this
department has made the following
ruling which has received the endorse
ment of good legal authority:
In cases where assessors Of towns are
able to complete their work and COM
nit real and personal estate. as well as
the poll tax before May 1, there would
need to be no separate commitment and
warrant for the poll tax. They would
advise. however, that in the event that
the poll taxes only are committed prior
to the first day of May, separate war
rant and commitment for poll taxes be
made.

Of such acquisition or construction, 1t
uses available funds not Immediately
required for current normal expenses
and charges. in the expectation OF re-
imbursing its treasury when the work
Is completed or when such funds are
required for such current purposes, it
amounts in effect to a temporary de-
Election or borrowing Of money intend
ed for those purposes, and to q GER
tain extent impressed with a trust or
obligation that they will be so avail
able. It does not seem that such a
course is inconsistent with fair con-
struction Of the statute.
ITO hold otherwise would certainly
impose a hardship upon the corpora
ton, and ultimately upon the public
who must pay the bills, because 1t
would force the corporation, in order
to save it's rights, borrow and pay in
terest as it went while funds temper
arily available were lying idle In Its
treasury. This apparently was the
view taken Of the business wisdom OF
the practice in New York State, when
after the above ruling, the law was
amended to provide for just such con-
tingencies."
In another decision, the commission
held that a utility applying for author
ity to issue bonds to provide funds for
constructing q plant in new territory
must be treated as new utility seek
ing authority to issue its entire capt.
tai, where it has sold its entire plant
and business in the old territory, and
distributed its assets among its stock
holders, although it did not actually
cancel its outstanding certificates OF
stock; that its franchises to be a cor
poration cannot be regarded as an
asset to justify the continued validity
Of such certificates Of stock. and that
a new utility may not issue bonds un-
less there is a substantial capltai
stock margin representing value

issued the following:
"The following statement is plac-
ed at the disposal of the press for
publication: In the House of Com
mons on June 27. last, the Secre>
tary of States for the Home Depart
ment stated that attention had been
drawn to an alleged telegram relat-
ing to the Jutland battle, which ap-
peared in certain American newspa-
pers as having been sent from Lon
don by the correspondent of the In
ternational News Service No such
message was included in any tele-
gram sent from this country.
THE home secretary referred on
the same occasion to previous cases
In which messages which purported
to be from the London correspond
ent of the International News Ser
vice bore no likeness to the cable
grams actually dispatched
"On the first occasion referred to.
the manager of the International
News Service in New York gave safe
gorical assurance that such an in
cident should not happen again. On
the second occasion he made like
promise. stating that orders had been
given that extraneous statements are
not to be inserted in cable dis
patches.
"On the 3rd Of September cable
grams were published in the United
States, purporting to have come
from London by International News
Service giving various false state
ments about the air raid Of the pre-.
vious night. None of the statements
in question was in fact contained in
any cablegram dispatched by tho

'In view of this continued garp-
ling OF messages and breach Of faith
on the part OF the International

has directed that no representative

shall be debarred from the use of all
