Says Simple Remedy
Prolonged His Life
Dr. CaldweRs Syrup Pepsin
Effective as a Remedy
for Constipation.

Among older people the various Or
gans Of the body have a tendency TO
slow up and weaken, and this is usu-
ally first manifest in a pronounced In
activity Of the bowels.
Good health is dependent on regular
ity in this important function; when
ever there is the slightest indication or
constipation a mild laxative should be
taken to relieve the congestion and
dispose of the accumulated waste
Cathartics or purgatives should not be
employed, however; these are too vio-
lent in action and their effect is only
temporary
A mild laxative such as the combin-
alton Of simple laxative herbs with
pepsin, known as DR.. Caldwelrs Syrup
Pepsin, is the ideal remedy 1t is gen.
tie in it's action t.. lging relief in an
easy, natural manner, without gripping
or other pain or discomfort, is pleas
ant to the taste, and can be obtained in
any drug store.
Mr.. Robert LeForgee, 91S Kirkwood

has always had a bottle Of DR.. Cald-
wells Syrup Pepsin in the house for
the past eighteen years, and that by
using it occasionally as the need arises,

On the last three days Of this week
an effort will be made to open the

A merely alphabeted list of books is
not interesting, even to book agent;
so, trying to advertise the new books
recently added to the library. we find
that the classified list with a few COM

most acceptable. The list is a long
one and can be only partially given
at this time. There are only three
titles in fiction. Granville Barker's,
Souls on Fifth, Churchilrs Coniston,

reading in the schools. and The

The Two Parties in GERMANY

The Two Parties in Germany.
Willlam u. Bullitt in The New Re-
pubic: The supporters Of the chan
celIor still see. in the war the same
conflict which existed before England
came in. To them, this is essentially a
struggle between Russia and the Aus
tro Hungarian German bloc for pre-
dominance in the Balkans and Asia
Minor. Their hope is to establish a
confederation of central Europe
stretching from Hamburg to Bagdad.
AS they see it. the war is deciding,
chiefly, how wide shall be the boun-
daries of central Europe. They are al
most ready to give up northern France
and the whole of Belgium. They are
ready to pay Belgium an indemnity Of
1000, 100000 marks, if Belgium will
pretend that it is part of the purchase
price of a section of Belgian Congo.
Their eyes are on the east. They hope
to annex Courland, and to create an
independent Poland and Russia's Pol
ish territories, which they expect to
take into the German piece of territory
to them is northeastern Serbia, which
they call The dry Suez Canal" For
across 1t, by way of Belgrade and
Nish, runs the railway from Budapest
to Constantinople, control of which
they must have if the Hamburg to
Bagdad confederation is to become q
reality.
To the supporters Of Tirpitz, the
war essentially is a struggle between
England and Germany for control o.
the sea. They wish to purchase peace
with Russia at any price, even at the
cost of abandoning their ally Turkey,
and to fight on until France and Eng
land are crushed. They believe that
Germany should annex every foot Of
French and Belgium territory she can
occupy: French territory so that
France can never again offer serious
resistance; Belgian territory so that she
may have a springboard from which to
dive at England. Tirpitz's notorious
postal card puts matters thus: I'VE

base from which to operate against

Asbestos Found I'm Arixoun.

Chemical Engineering: Up to the
present time Canada was the only To-
Cality in North America where long
fibered asbestos was obtained. While
Wyoming produces asbestos, this ma
terial is of the serpentine type and is
short f1bered. Lately large deposits of
the long fibered type of asbestos were
discovered in Arizona. the largest de-
posits being in the Sierra Ancha and at
Ash Creek. The asbestos of Orizona is
asbestos and is found in lime
and diabase. Its nature makes it espe-
cially useful for the manufacture of
fabrics. The high grade material Is at
least so per. cent of the total material
mined and is the only material that is
being shipped due to the high freight.

eRANpMoTHER,s MEDICINES.

Our grandmothers were wise in the
virtues of the herbs of the field. They
used to gather and store roots and
herbs and use them to cure the all

thoroughwort sage, rue, camomile-
the list might go on and on of the
healing plants with which they made
us familiar.
Now their grand daughters get the

The Wall

A little stream had lost it's way
Amidst the grass and fern;
A passing stranger scooped q well,
Where weary men might turn.
He walled it in, and hung with care
A ladle at the brink;

But judged that all might drink.
He passed again, and loI the we'll,
BY summer never dried,
Had cooled ten thousand parching

And saved a life beside.
