HOW TO MASTER THE
MACHINERY Of THE BODY
lex N. .. Cook, M. d.

10y N. 3. Cook, N. D..
The machinery Of the body needs to
be oiled, kept in good condition just
as the automobile or bicycle. Why
should the human neglect his own
machinery more than that OF his
horse or his engine? Yet most peo-
pie do neglect themselves. Their
tongue has dark brown color, skin
sallow, breath bad, yet they fail to
see4that their machinery needs atten-
ton. Everybody should take mild
laxative at least once a week. A
pleasant way to clear the tongue and
the highly colored water noticed in
the morning is to take a laxative
which will cure the inactive liver and
biliousness.
A pleasant vegetable pill is made
up of May-apple, leaves of aloe, and
jalap, made into a tiny pellet and
coated with sugar. First put up by
DR.. Pierce nearly so years ago. Drug
gists sell these vegetable pellets in
vials-simply ask for DR.. Pierce's

Many people will feel that the third

Nevertheless, there must be pres

answer.

Will Roosevelt have his hat in the
ring again?" r'''"'| + "Ht~

LEGISLATURE
IN SESSION
Lawmaking Bodies of Common
wealth Will Begin Meeting at
Frankfort Tomorrow.

Responding to the, call issued by
Gov. A. o. Stanley, the Legislature
will begin its special session tomor-
row. Under the call only new
revenue bill can be taken up. The
State Tax Commission which is
backed by the administration, will
stand firmly behind the measure it
has recommended, however the 131
members of the General Assembly
may embody in the new bill partic-
ular ideas of their own.
Although the members have not
yet arrived at Frankfort it is said
that many rumors are afoat as to
various changes that will be intro
duced. A measure to put a portion
of the increase on the liquor inter
ests as well as one to put tax on
the coal tonnage are among the
changes sure to be introduced. The
farmers of the state will not sit
idly by and permit themselves to be
taxed into bankruptcy, but an or
ganized effort will be made to make
the new bill fair and just to all.
Already a Tax League has been in
corporated and every farmer should
join this organization. We advise
the farmers t owrite their Senators
and Representatives urging them to
protect them by voting against the
bill as recommended by the State
Tax Commission.

GAS PRESSURE STILL LOW


The natural gas pressure in this
city has been below normal now for
the past week and while no actual
suffering has resulted still the pa
irons have been greatly inconven-
fenced. This is especially true
where people use gas ranges as it
takes a great deal longer time to
prepare a meal, owing to the slow
pess with which the range heats.
1t is. said by those in authority
that the low pressure is not caused
by any shortage of gas but that in
extremely cold weather the gas
partially congeals which effects the
flow very materially. The company
of course has no control over these
conditions and Is doing all in its
power to render its patrons the very
best service possible under these
conditions. Another cause of the
shortage is that when the main line
was broken during the recent high
water a temporary line was put in
and the company cannot turn on as
much pressure on this line as on the
regular line, however everything is
ready to make this repair as soon
as the weather viii permit the gas
being cut off for a short time.
