Most Old People
Are Constipated


The wear Of years impairs the
action of the bowels. AS people
grow older they restrict their
activity, neglect to take sufficient
exercise, and indulge a natural
disposition to take things easy.
The digestive organs become
more sensitive to the demands
made upon them and rebel more
quickly.
It is of special importance to
the health of elderly people that
the bowels be kept normally
active. "A mild, yet effective,
remedy, for constipation, and
one that is especially suited to
the needs of old folks, women
and children, is the combination
of simple laxative herbs with.
pepsin sold in drug stores under
the name of DIR. Caldwell's
Syrup Pepsin. It costs only
fifty cents a bottle, and should be
in every family medicine chest.

of sordid and brutal scandal, a
little paragraph intended to be
favorable to the Nonpartisan

which fit each other like the con-

A few weeks ago the Minot u.

resolutions asking Gronna to
resign and asking Frazier to
withdraw his l. w. w. protection
proclamation. A copy of these
resolutions was sent to Frazier.
The governor for reply made
no reply. He mailed Secretary
Tyler of the Minot u. @. T. a
copy of the Townley resolutions
passed at the gathering in St.

strated that Townley is his
mouth piece. We all know where
Townley stands on the u. G. T.

Dakota, stands. The patriotic
people of the state are waiting
for Frazier to send direct reply
