Many peopksdo not realize
what simple constipation or,
costive bowels will lead to if
not corrected. You wonder
why so many women and men
are sallow, have no appetite,
are dizzy, suffer with constant
head pains, heavy feeling af-
ter eating, on taking slight
exercise have futtering heart
and tired, run down feelings,
80 per cent of liver and stom-
ach troubles come from costive
bowels, constipation leads to
that most terrible condition,
NERVOUS INDIGESTION.
The bowels must have re-
stored to them their tone, and
regularity established and this
must be done, not by pills, calo-
mel and other laxatives, that
will only last for a time but
REGULARITY must be estab-
lished and DIGESTION RE-
STORED by a chemical com
bination of drugs that will
give a perfect digestion. WE
HAVE THAT PRESCRIP-
TION and make this proposal.
If you suffer from NER-
VOUS INDIGESTION due to
faulty digestion and CON-
STIPATION, come to our
store, buy a bottle of CINOT,
try it, and if your constipa-
ton, headache, loss Of appe-
tite, heart flutter, dizziness,
do not disappear and you are
not improved, come back to us
and we will REFUND YOUR
MONEY. Take a common
sense view of our proposition.
Could we afford to make this
offer if we. were not sure that
our claims were not right
Ask for CINOT, the
king of Digestive Medi-
cines..

Says the New York Times In regard
to general trade conditions:
Holidays are not conducive to bust
ness nor Is II intended that they
shall be. In consequence, the last
week which started with two Of them
in the primary markets showed less
activity In the selling end than has
been customary recently. II was
easy for the commission houses to
take the extra holiday they did be-
cause they and the mills they repre-
sent are pretty well sold up. At the
present time particularly in the tex
tiles. the matter uppermost is not
that of selling but of distribution.
The freight congestion IL becoming
less acute than II was and this Is
helping matters. but there still re-
main labor difficulties. These are
OF two kinds. the one relating to the
scarcity of workers who have gone
to the munitions factories because
" the higher pay offered. and the
other the agitations for shorter hours
and more wages. Just now. under
the prosperous conditions prevailing,
labor is very sensitive and at times
