Every organ of the body revolts or
refuses to perform its functions prop
erly when overtaxed or overloaded
with the waste materials of the body
caused by constipation and congestion.
So many people consider lightly. the
condition caused by PILES. Because
thousands suffer from this prevalent
disorder, the seriousness of the disease
is underestimate.
Even when a sufferer is confined
to the bed. the physician has diagnosed
the case, the basic cause of the illness
is often ignored or overlooked en-
tirely.
THE BIG IMPORTANT FACT is
this, that with the bowels acting regu-
larly, the system normal and cleansed
naturally a greater part of human ILL
ness could be avoided.

IT MADE HIM DIZZY
Horse Fell From Ii Inch Plank AMI
Owner Demands Pay for Him.

Because his horse was unable 10
walk a IA inch plank and keep his
balance, F. C. Mcdowell has a claim
against the couE-y commissioners for
500. the value placed upon the horse
The commissioners have not acted
upon the claim but are not disposed
to pay it. Mcdowell alleges that near
EImont he found a bridge, the APP
proach to which was badly washed and
that a plank had been laid from the
dirt road to the bridge He tried -
drive the horse on the plank and the
horse, being unaccustomed to rope
walking and other circus stunts, fell
off and injured himself to such an ex-
tent that it was necessary to put him
out of his misery
Boyd Pollom, one of the commits
sioners. admitted the bad condition of
the bridge today but stated that he
delayed having work done on it for
the reason that farmers in that local
ity. who were hauling hay. asked him
to wait until they had finished haul
ing.
1T is my opinion from what infor-
nation I have received said POllom,
that the horse was about at the end OF
mis- string and that the bad bridge had
mighty little to do with it

THE ENDLESS CHAIN"
DANGER Of CATARRH
S. SIS. the Proper Safeguard

Catarrh is cold" in its chronic
form. The air is filled with bacteria
which is taken into the mouth and
nose through the process Of breath
ing. When the body is in healthy
condition no harm results. But with.
our modern methods of indoor living
and sedentary occupations, the nue.
Gus membranes are usually not able
to "throw-off" this harmful bacteria,
making catarrh a very common all
ment. These germs breed and multi
ply, causing inflammation, the blood
rushes to the membranes to fight off
the bacilli. When the blood is in a
vigorous condition its defensive" eff
forts are successful Otherwise the
cold "hangs on"-turns into catarrh.
Catarrh is a chronic inflammation
Of the mucous membranes. Mucous
membranes are the lining of all the
internal cavities of the body. Get
that-AIiL cavities! There is the

The only way to treat catarrh is to

purify the blood is to take S. S. IS.

SUFFRAGE FIGHT TO BE
RESUMED IN CONGRESS

had told the convention that Presi-
den Wilson himself considered it vi
tai to party success, it was voted into
the platform by a vote of 5SS IL o
ISL 10.
The whole platform then was adopt
ed without roll CALL
As it went into the platform the
suffrage plank stands:
I'VE favor extension of franchise
to the women of this country by the
state, on the same terms as to men.
Woman suffrage leaders considered
it much more favorable declaration
than they got from the republican con-
vention at Chicago. They threw all
their force behind it and won the sup
port of administration leaders, who
were found fighting for them when
danger threatened.
Haggard and worn from an all night
session, the platform makers were not
ready with their report until this at
ternoon, when Senator Stone, sleep
less for more than 80 hours, took the
speakers stand and explained that he
was too tired to read the document,
and gave over this task to Senator
Walsh of Montana and Senator lHol-
lis of New Hampshire.
Expected a Fight.
The fight on the suffrage plank was
in the air. Everybody was keyed up
to it and when, at the conclusion OF
the reading of the platform, Martin

thought that he was opening the fight,
1t was several minutes before the
shouts of approval and the cries Of
disapproval could be silled sufficient.
ly to hear that he wanted to put the
convention on record as sympahizing
with the people of Ireland.
"Raus init him" roared Baltimore
delegate and the convention hall rock
ed with laughter. The real fight took
place Immediately after, however,
when Governor Ferguson of Texas,
who headed minority report against
the administration plank, was given
so minutes in which to present it.
Minority Plank.
The plank offered by the minority
was this:
1.-The democratic party has always
stood for sovereignty of the. several
states on the control and regulation
of elections. We reaffirm the historic
position of our party in this regard
and favor the continuance of that
wise provision OF the federal constitu-
ton which vests in the several states
of the Union the power to prescribe
the qualifications of their electors"
With Governor Ferguson, it was
signed by former Representative Bart
lett of Georgia, James r. Nugent Of
New Jersey and Stephen B. Fleming
of Ft. Wayne, Ind.
The burden OF Gov. Ferguson's ar
gument was that suffrage being pure
ly states rights question, the word
ing of the majority plank was pre-
sumptuous recommendation.
.Anti-suffrage delegates piled the
governor with questions, which broke
out fresh arguments against the ad-
ministration plank, and when Fergu-
son had finished, the convention was
in confusion and the tone of the up
roar in the delegate sections was in
dicative. of sympathy with the oppon-
ents of the administration plank.
Bompard Senator stone.
When Senator Stone took the speak
er's place to defend the plank, he was
bombarded with a running fire of ar.I
gument from the delegates on the
floor, which. finally exhausted the
time allotted to him without permits
ing him to speak ten successive min
ues.
Anti-suffrage delegates loudly chal-
lenged his reference to Ferguson's
statements with cries of "Thats not
what he said That's not fair" Sell
ator Stone yielded to Senator Pittman
of Nevada, one of the suffrage cham
pions. The crowd started to howl
Pittman down and shouted, "Vote.
VOTE
"Yes, I know you want to vote"
Pittman bawled at his opponents.
"You would rather do anything else
than hear the truth. Are you men
who are willing to hear woman de-
nounced afraid to hear man say
something in their behalf. l want to
appeal to you to give your sisters and
daughters and mothers the right to
vote" 4
'Wha's that got to do with this?
chorused the delegates. -.
Finally ignoring the lesser outbreak
and shouting above the din and the
confusion, Pittman managed to- get
through with his speech.

Newcome, 'who easily can eat 16

Poisonous plants killed 5000
sheep, $3.50 cattle and IL horses on
the forests during the past year.
Disease has a toll of 5,27S sheep,
655 cattle and SO horses.
Summarized, the known losses of
livestock on the forests during 1915,
from the three listed causes, amount
ed to $1,000 sheep, 1870 cattle and
100 horses, having a total value of
$435,OO0 on an approximate esti-
mate. One-half Of the total num-
Der of sheep lost from various causes
was reported from the forests in the
state of Utah.
Every possible effort is being made
to decrease these annual losses,
which, although very small in pro-
portion to the total numbers grazed,
still constitute a considerable item.
With the several states, the forest
service, biological survey, other fed
eral bureaus and various stockmen's
organizations uniting this year to
take vigorous steps AGAINST the pre-
datory animal, the losses next sea-
son from this cause are sure to be
much smaller.
