ARE YOU LOOKING OLD?

Old age comes quick enough with
out inviting it. Some look old al
forty. That Is because they neglect
the liver and bowels. Keep your
bowels regular and your liver healthy
and you will not only feel youngsr
but look younger. When troubled
with constipation or biliousness take
Chamberlain's Tablets. They are n
tended especially for these ailments
and are excellent. Easy to take and
most agreeable in effect. Obtain

THE HABIT OF TAKING COLD.

With many people taking cold is a
habit. but fortunately one that is
easily broken. Take a cold sponge
every morning when you first get
out of bed-not ice cold, but tenn
perature of about 80 degrees F.
Also sleep with your windows up.
Do this and you will seldom take
cold. When you do take cold take
Chamberlain's Cough Remedy and
get rid Of it as quiskly as possible.

CONGRESSIONAL cRoss.ExAMIN

Most OF our congressman are law
yers. Eight OF the eleven members
OF the house committee investigating
the Wall street leak" on the presi'
dents peace note are lawyers. All OF
them, presumably, have had some
practical experience in their profess
sion. Two of them have been dis
trict attorneys, and so must be espe-
cially familiar with the taking of testi-
mony. And yet the committee has
deemed il necessary to appoint a Bos-
ton lawyer TO examine the witnesses
appearing before the committee.
why elect lawyers as representa-
tives," asks the New York World, ''if
the public is never to receive the bene-
fit OF their legal training?"
Still, there are lawyers and lawyers.
1t seems to be agreed that the Boston
gentleman named for the job is quite
competent to handle IL. Unfortunately
the congressional lawyers heretofore
in charge have produced no such i'm.
preston of their ability. 1t would be
a relief to the country TO see the thing
taken up by somebody big enough not
to let Tom Lawson or anyone else
make a monkey out of the United
States government.
