Speedy Relief From Habitual
 Constipation

The liver is the largest and most inn portant organ in the body, and when the lVer refuses to act it causes cons tpation indigestion, gas, sour stomach. bad breath dysentery. diarrhoea. pains in back and under shoulder blades and under ribs on right side These symptoms lead to colds, influenza or other serious troubles unless corrected im- medately
 An inactive liver places an extra burden on the kidneys, which overtaxes them and causes the blood to absorb and carry into the system the impurities that the liver and kidneys have failed to eliminate
 When you treat the liver alone you treat only third of your trouble and that is why you have to take purgatives every few nights. Calomel or other ordinary laxatives do not go far enough. If you would treat your kidneys and blood while treating the liver, you would put your entire system in order and frequent purgatiyes would then be unnecessary.
 Dr. w. l.. Hitchcock many years ago recognized these important facts. and after much study and research, compounded what is now known as Dr. Hitchcock's Liver Kidney and Blood Powders three medicines combined in one. This was the Doctors fa- vorite prescription for many years, being used by his patients with marked success It is harmless vegetable remedy that will not make you sick, and you may eat any thing you like while taking it.
 Get large tin box from your druggist or dealer for 25c. under his personal guaran- stimulate the kidneys to healthy action and thereby purify the blood. Keep it in the home for ready use whenever any member of the family begins to feel "out of sorts.'' It will prove house sehold friend and valu- able remedy.-Adv.

KNOW WHAT THEY DESERVE.

A New Yorker who has confessed to
the wood alcohol whisky traffic that
has caused death to scores and blind
ness to others, is quoted as pleading
to the authorities; For Gods sake
don't send me to Connecticut. I don't
want to be lynched.'
This shows that there rs no ques-
ton in his mind as TO the penalty he
and those associated with him in the
diabolical business deserve. The deads
" effect of the concoction made it
clear that there was coldblooded dis
regard of human life on the part of
some person or persons and the i'm
preston is growing that most of those
connected with the sale of the stuff
hau guilty knowledge that it was not
as represented, even though all may
not have known of it's true nature. 1t
is one of the worst cases on record OF
seeking money regardless of the effect
of the method on human life.
If such wanton disregard of life does
not constitute murder, what does?
The public will surely have no pa
tience with abuse of techniealities to
enable such fiends to escape Justice
and they will escape it if they get any
sentence less than the supreme pen
