Elderly People Have A
Daily Health Problem
Stomach muscles and digestive organs
slow to act as age advances

MOST people find the years slip
4Fl ping by without realizing it,
until suddenly confronted with
the fact that they can no longer di-
gest everything they would like to
eat. It then becomes their daily task
10 avoid what they know to be
chronic constipation.
When exercise and light diet fail
it will be necessary to resort to
artificial means. Strong physics and
cathartics. however, are not ad-
Yisable for elderly people. They act
too powerfully and a feeling of
weakness results.
What is needed is a laxative con-
tanning effective but mild properties
This is best found in DIR. Caldwell's
syrup Pepsin which is a combina-
ton of simple laxative herbs with
pepsin. 1t acts gently and without
gripping, and used a few days will
train the digestive organs to do
their work naturally again without
other aid.
DR.. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin has
Deen on the market since 1892 and
was the private formula of Dr. w.
y. Caldwell, who is himself past
80 years of age and still active in
MS profession. 1t can he bought at
any drug store for soc and 81 a

NO SPECIAL SESSION OF
LEGISLATURE IN DECEM BEL


Pierre, S. d, Nov. 24.-The Daily
Capital Journal says:
"Mrs. j. l.. Pyle, of Huron, has been
corresponding with legislative members
relative to a special session on Deem
Der 2ud to be convened without cost to
the state, for the purpose of ratifying he
federal suffrage amendment. A goodly
number of the senators have agreed to
serve in that manner, but the returns
from the house members have been slow
ccGCming IN, with the result that the tire
is now 90 close at hand that Governor
Norbeck would not be justiaed in wait
ing several more days to call special
session and as Mrs. Py le has not got suf-
fcient replies to insure special with
out cost, it can be generally understood
that there will be no special December
meeting, but there will be one later on
| in the winter. The Governor is auth.
ity for the statement that special
session will be called early in the new
year to consider several matters of i'm.
portance besides that of ratifying the

ORATORS TO BE THERE
Noted National Speakers Are to Be at
the Pierre Convention to
Rally Workers.

Pierre, Nov 25.-As the time Of tn,
state conventions approaches, the party
leaders are making preparations to pu
as much pep as possible into tht
campaign which will be held in connec
tion with the conventions
Chairman Hays, of the republican ma
tional committee, has announced that
oe will either attend in person or supply
speakers Of national note for the oc
casion, and the party leaders Of the
state will be on hand to take their share
of the boosting for the republican pol.
icies and lineup.
The democrats have an assurance that
Attorney General A. Mitchell Palmer
an avowed candidate for the president.
ial nomination Of that party, will be on
hand to address their convention.
The non-partisans promise the attend
ance Of their leading national speakers
to help boost their lineup
The forces OF Lowden will be on
hand led by Fred Starting, present state
treasurer of Illinois, who is an old-time
resident Of South Dakota, making his
home for some time at Huron and
Pierre. 1t is expected that the other
candidates for nomination on the differ
ent party tickets will also have their
scouts on the ground
With reports secured on about half
the counties Of the state, 50 far the only
women delegation to the state conveu-
ton are from Hughes and Roberts coun-
ties, bat this number may be increased
when the returns are all received.
The lineup of the delegates so far se-
cured would indicate that Governor Nor.
beck will be selected as the senatorial
nominee without opposition, and as to
the governorship, and other places, the
matter is yet open.
The contest for the governorship so
far as the republicans are concerned
will settle down between Lieutenant
Governor McMaster and State Senator
Gunderson
The contest for lieutenant-governo
appears to be the point causing most
discussion, with State Senator c. S. Am.
sden, Of Grant, who has been president
OF the senate for many terms, getting
many complimentary notices.
Others who are openly in the field are
Speaker Lewis Benson, of Moody, who
was an early candidate in the game, and
T. n. Leedon, of Jackson counts, a
former legislative member who is ask
ing for the place as a west river candi.

HOME FROM NATIONAL


Roy Brazell, Superintendent of the
Wind Cave National Park, returned last
Saturday from Denver, where he had
been attending the yearly conference OF
the officers Of the National Parks Mr.,
Brazell states that this was the most
successful conference yet held, and that
each official had a chance to present his
grievances, and air his opinions and
ideas.
The Conference made an attempt to
discontinue the grazing concessions in
the various parks, but Mr.. Brazel secur-
ed a modification of the motion, by hav.
ing it left to the discretion of the super
intendent of the park in question A
great many suggestions, providing for
better facilities for the entertainment
and accommodation Of the public were
offered and adopted
The members of the Conference were
royalty entertained during their stay in
the city by the different civic associa-
tons, who spared no means at their
command to insure their guests a good
time. Trips were made to the different
parks throughout the city, as well as to
the various State and National parks
within a radius of o1e hundred miles
from Denver; theater parties; luncheons:
dinners and in fact nothing that could
be thought of in the line Of entertain
ment was omitted.
Mr.. Brazell, after the Conference was
ended, visited the Cave of the Winds at
Manitou, and other points of general in
terest, before coming home He says
that while the Cave of the Winds is a
remarkable formation of Nature, that,
so far as size is concerned, it could be
put in the Fair Grounds of our own
Wind Cave,
Mr.. Brazell feels as though the trip
has done him world of good, and that
it has given him host Of new ideas
that will be beneficial to him in the ad-
ministration of Wind Cave
The next Conference will be held at
Hot Springs, Arkansas, in 1920.

RED CROSS MEMBERSHIP
DRIVE GOING SLOWLY

So far Custer has not shown the usual
enthusiasm in putting over the Red
Cross membership campaign for mem
bers. About so names have renewed
and there should be around 200. The
Sanatorium has the Banner so far with
63 names enrolled, which is high per-
centage considering all things. May we
make this appeal now to the Custer com
munity-that you do not ask US to solicit
your membership? We are all busy
and no one can take time for house to
house canvass. Hand your dollar to the
Bank or the Chairman and get a 1920
button and keep up our fpe reputation

COMPTROLLERASK
BANKS TO REPORT

Local commercial banks, trust com
panies. and savings banks received .
call this morning from the COmptrol-
ler of the Currency to report their re-
speetive deposits on hand as OF Sep
tember II. The present call was pre-
ceded by one on June 30.
While some of the national banks
reporting today showed q slight de-
crease in present deposits from those
OF two and = half months ago, this
fact cannot be taken a. an indication
OF decreasing business in the District
Of Columbia. Since the last call many
Of the national banks have paid or
the Districts funds, and while the ac-
tual deposits show a decrease, the
commercial deposits have kept pace
with the ever-inereasing business in
Washington.
The savings banks generally report
q considerable increase In business
since June 80. From the figures al
ready at hand, it is believed that the
present deposits will compare favor
ably with those Of June 30.

tive deposits on hand September II,
