Chronic Constipation.

There are people who never
have a movement of the bowels
without it is produced by a ca
tharic. Most of them have
brought that condition on them
selves by the use of mineral
waters and strong cathartics
that take too much water out of
the system and aggravate the
disease they are meant to re-
lieve. A mild laxative tonic like
Chamberlain's Tablets affords a
gentle movement of the bowels
that you hardly realize has been
produced by a medicine, and
their use is not so likely to be
followed by constipation. Adv.

FOR METUCHEN

to Consider Tentative Draft
of Building Code

METUCHEN, March 10-Consid-
Grafton of the draft of a tentative
building code and coming ordinance
will be the most important matter
to come before the local Chamber
of Commerce at their next meeting,
which is to be held in Arcanum hail
next Thursday night.
This subject was one of the first
problems contemplated under the
constructive program adopted at
the reorganization about a year ago
and every effort is to be made to
adopt the plans and put them i'll
operation.
The committee named to work up
the details has been busy collecting
a mass of detail which would apply
to. AN ordinance adaptable to the
borough, and Alfred ID. Hyde, the
chairman, has promised to lay the
tentative schedules before the or
ganization at the lex meeting.
At'the present time there are no
borough. ordinances governing the
erection of buildings, but with SUCH
an ordinance adopted by the coun-
Gil, the erection of future buildings
would be restricted in such a man
ner as to benefit the town as a
whole.
Within the next month the an
nual meeting of the chamber will be
held, at which time officers for the
ensuing year will be chosen. During
the, past year the organization has
enjoyed quite an increase in MEM
bership. and it is hoped that the
local merchants of the borough will
take an active part in helping to
fill the offices when the election is

Agriculture motion picture,
when Elk Come Down
This film, which would make a
particularly strong and Sympa-
thetic appeal to the Benevolent
and Protective Order of Elks, was
made under the direction of Fred
w. Perkins, former West Virginia
newspaper man. who is making a
fine reputation for himself as head
ofthe film bureau of the Depart
ment of Agriculture.
Up in the highlands Of Yellow
stone National Park dwell the re-
naming big herds of elk. In the
park. where they are well protec-
ted. there is an abundance of feed
in the summer time. But in the
winter,~when the big SHOWS sweep
down on the Rockies, the elk are
forced from the mountains and
out of the park, to the lower levels
where there is less snow. In TINS
annual migration many of the elk
pass into the national forests
which entirely surround the park
Thus they become a source 81
concern to the Forest Service
which in cooperation with the
Montana State Game Departm ent
is responsible for the film.
The film story, which was writ
ten by MIR. Perkins, opens when a
big snow is on From a range
station, forest rangers and a State
game warden start out to protect
the elk from tooth hunters. UP
in the mountains six Prong, a
great bull elk, shifts the coming
snow and starts to lead his clan to
the lower country. Sam Biller.

the coming of "elk weather" and
