THE EVILS OF
CONSTIPATION.
Everyone Knows When He is Consti
pated and Everyone Should Know
the Risk He is Running When
He Fails to Promptly
Correct it.
Any Disease Epidemic or Otherwise to
Which He or She May be Exposed
is Sure to Result Seriously.
There are two ways to remove consti
pation; the wrong way is to drench the
bowels with a powerful, griping, drastic
cathartic that injures the coating of the
bowel channels and produces an early
return of the trouble in a more chronic
form. The right way is to use a natural,
easy and mild laxative that tones up and
strengthens the bowels and leaves a
healthful influence behind it. Prickly
Ash Bitters will empty the bowels just
as thoroughly as the harsher cathartics,
and combines all the tonic and strength
ening properties necessary to perma
nently cure the habit.
Accept no substitute. Insist on having
the genuine Prickly Ash Bitters with the
large figure S iu red on the front label.

SANCTIFIED SALOON CLOSES.
Bishop Power’s Farcical Reform a Fail
ure-Rum and Religion
Wouldn’t Mix.
New York, Aug. 31.—The Sub
way Tavern, which was opened
eleven months ago with an ad
d ess by Bishop Potter and the
singing of the doxology, closed
its doors at midnight for the last
time as a “sanctified saloon.’’
Today its proprietors will it is
stated sign over the place to the
man who has been conducting
the restaurant on the premises.
The new owner will after ex
tensive alterations run the place
as an ordinary saloon.
While all those connected with
the establishment who could be
seen were reticent concerning
the change, several employes of
the tavern explained that there
had not been sufficient income
from the sales to pay running
expenses.
TnatpaH of the well known citi
zens who established the tavern
drawing a 5 per cent dividend as
they expected it was said in the
last six months they had been
compelled so often to go down
into their pockets to make good
a deficit that they had become
tired and wished to be rid of the
tavern entirely.
When the tavern was opened
in October, 1904, it was an
nounced that only pure liquors
would be sold.
One room was fitted up with
a soda fountain, where women
might be served with beer.
The outer walls of the building
were painted with texts of scrip
ture and highly colored signs,
but in words of one of the bar
tenders, it was found that rum
and religion would not mix.
j WHEN OLD AGE CO/VIES
The sense of sight grows most
precious, though often the best
of glasses cannot restore to old
eyes even a portion of their
youthful power. These facts
s%»uid impress all with the im
portance of early care for the
organs of sight. Do not wait
till your eyes become impaired,
but have them tested at once, as
often an eye specialist can detect
and remedy in time what might
prove a serious trouble if ne
glected. .

I Many people who are neglecting symptoms of kidney trouble, hoping •‘it wil^wear^away,” ore |
How to Find Out
Yoa can easily determine if your kidneys am
out of order by setting aside for 24 hours a
bottle of the urine passed upon arising. If
upon examination it is cloudy or milky or has
a brick-dust sediment or small particles float
about in it, your kidneys are diseased, and
FOLEY’S KIDNEY CURB should be taken
at once.
8. 8. Burhans Testifies After Four Tsars.
G. B. Burhans of Carlisle Center, N. Y., writes:
"About four year, ago I wrote you stating that I had been entirely
cured of a severe kidney trouble by taking teas than two bottles of
Foley's Kidney Cure. It entirely stopped the brick-duet sediment and
rila and symptoms of kidney disease disappeared. 1 am glad to say that
have never had a return of any of those symptoms during the four
years that have elapsed, and I am evidently cured to stay cured, and
heartily recommend Foley's Kidney Cure to any ona suffering from
kidney or bladder trouble.''
