Why Constipation Injuries.

The bowels are the natural
sewerage system of the body.
When they become obstructed
by constipation a part of the
poisonous matter which they
should carry off is absorbed in
to the system, making you feel
dull and stupid, and interfering
with the digestion and assimila-
ton of food. This condition is
quickly relieved by Chamber
.lain's Tablets. Obtainable every

Soldiers.

Major Munroe Mcfarland of
the General Staff of the United
States Army, who inspected the
cadet corps at the University of
Missouri recently, told the Of
fcers after the inspection that
he was well satisfied with the

boys three months, l could make
a crack regiment of them"
The rating of the University

best ten of Immigrant schools.
This year the enrolment is 925.

Safe Medicine for Children.

"Is it Safe? :" is the first ques-

ing cough medicine for children.
Chamberlain's cough remedy has
long been a favorite with moth
ers of young children as it con-
.tains no opium or other narcotic,
and may be given to a child as
confidently as to an adult. It is
pleasant to take, too, which is of
great Importance when a medi-
cine must be given to young
children, This remedy is most
effectual in relieving coughs,
colds and Group. Obtainable
