Staff Corpfpondent.I
Jan. IB. (Special.) The
ciomooratic dove of peace has ljn found.
Yesterday afternoon It flew In a aort
of bewihlrred manner to the state house
and fell exhausted on the window slit i
outside the private office of Governor J
Morehead. The governor filled with com- I
1 RKflon for the almost helrleaa creature!
and with Joy that the bird had been
found and that It had chosen htm as the
man to sveeor it. opened his window and
took the bird to his bream. Later he
took It to the mansion and fill feed It
and nourish It until the time cornea that
It can once more brave the madding fuo
tions In the democratic party and make
good.
The bird was a woting one, which may
house at such a, time when there ap
pears to be little chance for It to find
the olive branch. But coming to the of
fice of Governor Morehead Is taken by
many to be a notice froirt porno high
power that he la to be the man. who
will restore harmony to a badly shattered
party. It is taken to be a notice to the
Kovernor that he is' the man who should
run for United states senator on the
democratic ticket and thus be In a pol
tlon to bring together the widely diverg
ing factions led by Senator Hitchcock
and William Jennings Bryan. The little
frozen bird was a pigeon.

What Is the Oculist's
First Question?
BEFORE proceeding with the examination of your eyes he
asks you, "Is your digestion good? Do your bowels move
regularly?"
The Oculist knows that eye strain is frequently caused by a disor
dered stomach or by constipation. Any doctor will tell you the.
same thing.
Constipation throws the whole system out of gear. Us effects are
felt almost immediately in biliousness, headaches, blurred vision,
nervous 'depression, and other symptoms of auto-Intoxication.
Laxatives and cathartics won't cure constipation. They irritate the
bowels into action and give temporary relief, but at the expense of
upsetting completely the normal processes of evacuation.
A far safer and more effective means of restoring norma) , bowel
movements is the mineral oil treatment, advocated and prescribed
for years by eminent specialists both in this country and abroad.
Nujol is the purest form of refined white mineral oil. . It is not a
drug nor a bowej stimulant. It acts solely as a mechanical lubri
cant, facilitating the passage of waste matter and helping to restore
normal bowel activity. '
Nujol is odorless, colorless and tastetess. It is not absorbed by the
system, hence may be taken in any quantity without harm.
Write for booklet The Rational Treatment of Constipation." If
jour drugg-iit hain't it. we will send a pint bottle of NUJOL
prepaid to any point In United States oo receipt of 75c money
order or stamps.
