The Handy Doctor in Your
Vest Pocket
nTS a thin, round-cornered little
Enamel Box
I J When carried In your vest pocket
- It means Health-Insurance.
It contains Six Candy Tablets of pleasant
taste, almost as pleasant as Chocolate.
Each tablet Is a working dose of Cas
carets, which acts like Exercise on the
Bowels and Liver.
It will not purge, sicken, nor upset the
stomach.
Because It Is not a "Bile-driver," like
Salts, Sodium, Calomel, Jalap, Senna, nor
Aperient Waters.
Neither la It like Castor Oil, Glycerine,
or other Oily Laxatives that simply lubricate
the Intestines for transit of the food stopped
up In them at that particular time.
The chief cause of Constipation and
Indigestion Is a weakness of the Muicles
that contract the Intestines and Bowels.
Cascarets are practically to the Bowel
Muscles what a Massage and Cold Bath
are to the Athletic Muscles.
They stimulate the Bowel Muscles to
contract, expand, and squeeze the Digea
tive Juices out of food eaten.
They don't help the Bowels and Liver In
such a way as to make them lean upon
Similar assistance for the future.
This Is why, with Cascarets, the dose
may be lessened each succeeding time
Instead of Increased, as It must be with all
other Cathartics and Laxatives.
Cascarets act like exercise.
, If carried in your vest pocket, (or carried
In My Lady's Purse,) and eaten just when
you suspect you need one, you will never
know a sick day from the ordinary I lis of life
Because these Ills begin In the Bowels,
and pave the way for all other diseases.

by the Sterling Remedy Company, and never

JES' PLAIN TORPEDOES.
The good old Fourth'! a-comln' th best
dar 1b th year,
And little chaps get anxious-like when
once lu drawln' near ;
They talk of firecrackers and they dream
about the noise.
The dear old Fourth was certainly Jes'
mado fer little boys.
Bill's cot a treat bit: cannon, with (use
yau have to light.
And lott of great big crackers that's filled
with dynamite ;
But I'm a little feller alnt' have as old
as he,
And I guess that plain torpedoes will have
to do fer me.
Pa says that giant crackers ain't fit fer
little chaps.
He's sore on all toy pistols and hates these
paper caps.
Hi don t Intend his children shall ever cele
brate By blowing off their lingers he says they'll
have to wait.
"Tou're nothln' but a baby," my father
says "as yet,
And your daddy can't quite spare you ; he
needs you bad, you bet.
Bill's got some giant crackers? Well, that
I know Is true.
But I guess that plain torpedoes will have
to do fer you."
It's hard to have big brothers and watch
them at their play.
And s to bs a little chap and sort o' In
the way ;
To have folks always tell you, you eau't do
thus and so,
Because you're Jes, a little chap not old
enough, you knew.
But ma, she sees I'm tearful, so she takes
me In her lap
And aays, "Why, what's the matter? You're
cryln', little chap."
Then, as she bends to kiss me, I'm brave
as I can be,
t guesa that plain torpedoea are gooj enough
for me !

OLD GLORY.
A Salem Skipper Credited with Citr
ine tho Flo Thla Xara.
ILVT the American
flag was nnmed Old
Glory in 1S."U bv a
Salem (Mass.) skip
per named William
Driver is osnerted
by the Boston Globe.
He was at that time
captain of Jha brig
Charles Popgatt.
Captain Drivr, a
successful di-ep sea
sailor, was prepar
ing to nlmpe th
brig's course to the southern Pacific.
Just before the brig left Salem a youni;
man at the bead of a party of friend
saluted Captain Driver on the deck of
the Doggett and presented him with a
large and beautifully made American nng.
It was done up in stops and when seat
Dp aloft and broken out to the air Captain
Driver chrlsteued it Old Glory.
He took it to the south Pacific, and
years after when old age forced him to
relinquish the sea be treasured the flu
as an old friend.
Captain Driver moved to Nashville,
Tenn., in 1857 and died there in 1S.SU.
Previous to the outbreak of hostilities
between the North and the South Ol.l
Glory was flung to the breeze every day
from the window of Captain Driver's
Nashville bouse, but when the bullets be
gan to sip and the odor of gunpowdpr to
taint the air the old flag had ' to be se
creted. It was kept out of sight inside n great
bed comfortably until Feb. 27, 1S;2. when
Brig. Gen. Nelson's wing of the I'nion
army appeared in Nashville. Captain
Driver presented It to tho general to b
hoisted on the capital. It was run up by
Captain Driver himself. He wutc-h.'d it
(brough the night, and. a heavy wind
coming up, be took it down aud sent a
new flag up in its place.
The original Old Glory was preserved
and after the death of Captain Driver
It wan presented by the compiler of the
Driver memoirs to the Kttset hmtitu'e ot
talem, Mass., where it may now be xeen.
Facts About Firecrackers.
The greater part of the almost $2,000,
000 worth of firecrackers annually ex
ported by China comes to New York. Aud
the United States stands next to China
In Its use of tbem.
Thousand of Chinee men, women and
children work at the making of fire
crackers, for there are no manufactories
there, tb work being done by band. They
7 ifmi L rMA0 wmwm
receive only about $1.40 for making 10,
000 firecrackers, laboring from six In the
morning until eleven at night seven days
a week.
Sb a Chinese woman or child works
like a slave for two days to earn what
Is spent on a few bunches of firecrackers
by the urchin bent on doing justice to the
Glorious Fourth.
A VIEW FROM MARS.
What a Visitor from Another World
Thought of Our Fourth.
It was Fourth of July night, and the
Visitor from Mars stood on the roof of
a skyscraper overlooking tho celebration!
TIm- black air vvus filled with scooting
things of fire that streaked through the
night and vanished into the mdcrinl
spaces; of bright balls that shot up from
earth and burst. on high witfi a report
rilling the heavens with brilliant, evau
eseent clusters of stars in tho hues of
purpto, red and burning copper.
"What are these things called?" asked
the A isitor, whose inquisitiveness was be
coniiiv; almost a bore.
"Tims," said the ninn who was show
ing him around, "are called fireworks,
They are being sent up ot great expense
by the Celebration Committee."
"I have been on earth long enough to
know that they are not sent into the sky
every night," s.iid the Visitor, "and from
this I should naturally imply that there
was something doing."
"Well, rather," exclaimed the .World
ling. "This, I should like to inform
you. is the Fourth of July."
"I have observed the calendar," said
the Martian, ''but I don't see anything
about. that date that makes it necessary
for you to paint Imitation constellations
all over the sky."
"That," replied the American, "is he-
cause yon are not so fortunate as to
have been born south of Canada and
north of Mexico. These skyrockets and
Itoman candles nre being shot off to cele
brate the fact that some years ago the
America u people chased the Hritisli off
their map and established a free and In
dependent republic."
"Did the American people chase the
P.ritish off with skyrockets and Uoman
candles?" asked the naive traveler.
"Scarcely," said the American, who
was becoming impatient. "Our patriots
met 'em at Islington and shot 'em full
of lead pill, and when the enemy had
vamoosed they set up, us I said, the
greatest republic In the world "
"So I understand," said the logical
Hlien. "hut did you found the greatest
republic lu the world through the help
of these skyrockets ami things?-' I.
"Not as I know of," said the citizen
iu distrust.
"Then pard'ju my foreign way of look
ing at things,!' said the Martian, "but
what, would you pleuse explain, have
these great sparks up iu the air to do
with the Fourth of July?"
"I'll hit you In a minute!" said the
American. "Can't you see that they're
used to celebrate with?"
"Just be patient a minute!" suld the
bore from another star, but ut that mo
ment a diversion occurred. Something
big uud red hail exploded with a bung,
a 'id the figure of a man was seen lying
prone on the sidewalk far below. There
wus an excited rush of people, and an
ambulance came clanging around the cor
ner. f All." said the Martian at last, "I see,
I see. The fiery demonstration is in the
nature of a ceremony to your god of war,
a ml the victim Ix-low is merely a human
saeri'.ice. A very clever bleu."
So saying, the Visitor from Mar pull
ed on his tin helmet, took a chew from
a plug of radium, and mounted his flying
machine.
"Oh, must yon go?" asked the World
ling, trying politely to couceal a sigh of
relief.
"Oli, yes," suld the Martian, "I think
I'll take u run over to Chicago and study
the beef trust." San Francisco News
