The population of Murdock is

far from the last census and with a
comparison made outside of the
enumerator, whose work is not to
be reported as yet. ther seems to
be a shortage of yorug men in the
city. There are. as shown, only sev

13 and 25 whose homes are in Mur

the remainder are attending school

Periodic Bilious Attacks
Persons subject to periodic bilious
ittacks will observe that their appe
tite fails them just before an at
tack. That is, they do not really
crave food, but eat because It is meal
time. If they will eat only a light
meal and no meat, then take two of
Chamberlain's Tablets, the attack
may be avoided.
