Grandfather's Cure for
Constipation
REAT medicine, the Sawbuck.
Two hours a day sawing wood
will keep anyone's Bowels
regular.
No need of pills, Cathartics, Castor OH,
,nor "Physic," if you'll only work the Saw
ibuck regularly.
Exercise la Nature's Cure for Constipa
tion and, a Ten-Mile walk will do, If you
'haven't got a wood-pile.
But, if you will take your Exercise In an
Easy Chair, there's only one way to do that,
(because, there's only one kind of Artificial
lExerclse for the Bowels and its name is
"CASCARETS.'!
Cascarets are the only means to exercise
the Bowel Muscles without work.
' "
They don't Purge, Gripe, nor "upset
your Stomach," because they don't act like
"Physics."
They don't flush out your Bowels and
Intestines with a costly waste of Digestive
Juice, as Salts, Castor Oil, Calomel, Jalap,
or Aperient Waters always do.
No Cascarets strengthen and stimulate
the Bowel Muscles, that lino the Food
passages and that tighten up when food
touches them, thus driving the food to its
finish.
A Cascaiet acts on your Bowel Muscles
as if you had Just sawed a cord of wood, or
walked ten miles.
Cascarets move the Food Naturally,
digesting it without waste of tomorrow's
Gastric Juice.
The thin, flat, Ten-Cent Box Is made
o fit your Vest pocket, or "My Lady's"
Purse. Druggists 10 Cents a Box.
Carry it constantly with you and take a
Cascaret whenever you suspect you need
one.

HOW THE BLIND WILL STUDY THE PANAMA CANAL.
The first magazine for the blind ever made Is about ready to be sent out
to the sightless thousands of America through the benevolent provision of
Mrs. WUllnm Zlegler, who has donated the funds for the enterprise. It is
estimated that the cost to the widow of the millionaire baking powder man
will be between $!0,000 nml $70,000 a year. Tages of the new magaslne are
about 12x13 Inches In size. The number of pages will vary from month to
month, the first number containing about fifty sheets. Compared with other
magazines It Is bulky, and each one will weigh about one pound. The articles
will bo of all sorts, stories, news, achievements of the blind, poetry, a sheet
of popular music, and some Instructive articles. The moral tone will be high,
although It will not be religious In any way.
Tho first number goes to about 0,000 blind readers among the general pub
lic. This figure does not Include 4,500 students now In schools for the blind.
A sufficient number of copies will be sent to the schools for these, and the
magazine will go to the students at their homes during vacation, through Mrs.
Zlegler's kindness. This first number Is the largest edition of anything ever
printed for the blind. Great care bus been used In the character of matter.
For Instance, many beautiful songs and poems would be out of place for
blind readers. Allusions to mounlicams, starlight, rainbows and clouds are
not printed, as they serve to emphasize to tho renders the sense of their af
fliction. Above Is one of the "illustrations" In the new magazine. ,A niap( is shown
In raised dots. Underneath the map ore the following words: "Map showing
southern Florida, the Bahamas, Cuba, Jamaica, Panama and adjacent land
and sea." Some of the points on the map are marked with only the dots reri
resentlng the first letter of the name.but In the margin the name Is spelled out
The first number of the magazine contains, besides minor contributions and
maps, the following:
President Roosevelt's letter to Mrs. Zlegler, Helen Keller's letter to Mrs.
Zlegler; first Installment of "Mrs. Wlggs of the Cabbage Patch," which will
run as a serial; a physical exercise for the blind; the Ksperante Hymn of
Peace; comments on current news. '

These and similar speeches fired the
enthusiasm of the women, and finally
they decided to march to tho House
of Commons to demand votes. Many,
however, balked, and only about 200
joined the procession, which marched
with arms linked, singing "John

whole, were remarWably forbearing and

Known Excellence and Quality and o! Known Component Parts..
To gain the full confidence of the Weil-Informed of the world and the approval of
the most eminent physicians, it is essential that the component parts be known to and
approved by them, and, therefore, the California Fig Syrup Company has published for many
years past in its advertisements and upon every package a full statement thereof. The per
fect purity and uniformity of product which they demand in a laxative remedy of an ethical
character are assured by the California Tig Syrup Company's original method of manufacture,
known to the Company only.
There are other ethical remedies approved by physicians, but the product of
the California Fig Syrup Company possesses the advantage over all other family laxatives
that it cleanses, sweetens and relieves the internal organs on which, it acts, without
disturbing the -natural functions or any debilitating after effects and without having to
increase the quantity from time to time.
This valuable remedy has been long and favorably known under the name of
Syrup of Figs, and has attained to world-wide acceptance as the most excellent of
family laxatives, and as its pure laxative principles, obtained from Senna, are well
known to physicians and the Well-Informed of the world to be the best of natural
laxatives, we have adopted the more elaborate name of Syrup of Figs and Elixir of
Senna, as more fully descriptive of the remedy, but doubtlessly it will always be
called for by the shorter name of Syrup of Figs; and to get its beneficial effects,
always note, when purchasing, the full name of the Company California Fig Syrup Co.
