FOR CONSTIPATION
A Medicine that Does Not Cost Any
thing Unless It Cures.
Ifyou suffer from constipation in any
form whatever, acute or chronic, we will
guarantee to supply you medicine that
will surely effect a cure if taken with re
gularity and according to directions for
a reasonable length of time. Should the
medicine fail to benefit you to your en
tire satisfaction, we promise that it shall
cost you nothing.
No other remedy can be compared with
Rezall Orderlies for the easy, pleasant
and successful treatmentof constipation.
The active medicine ingredient of this
remedy which is odorless, tasteless and
colorlesb, is an entirely new discovery.
Combined with other extremely valuable
ingredients, it forms a preparation which
is incomparable as a perfect bowel re
gulator, intestinal invigorator and
strengtbener. Rexsll Oderlies are nota
ble for their agreeablenees to the palate
and gentleness of action. They do not
cause griping or any disagreeable effect
or inconvenience, and may be taken at
any time, day or night.
We particularly recommend Rexall Or
derlies for children, delicate or aged per
sona because they do not contain any
thing that could possibly injure the most
delicate organism. They are just as easy
to take as candy, and unlike other pre
parations'for a like purpose they do not
create a habit, but instead they overcome
the cause of habits acquired through the
wm of ordinary laxatives, cathartics and
hate physic, and permanently remove
the cause of constipation or irregular
bowel action.
We want you to try Rexall Oderlies at
oar risk. We know that there is nothing
that will do you so much good, as we
will refund your money without argu
ment if they do not do as we say they
wilL They are prepared in tablet form
in two sues of packages; 36 tablets, 25c.,
and 12 tablets, 10c Pollock & Co. tbe

MULE PROVED RIGHT
DID WELL TO STAY OUT IN OPEN
DURING STORM.
Call it Stubbornness or Prescience, or
Anything You Wish, But His Ac
tion Saved the Life of
His Rider.
"Everybody knows that all mnles
are brainy, but the mules of Old Mexi
co have something on other mnles for
a sort of prescience of their own," said
a man who has spent many years in
the neighboring republic, to a New
York Sun writer. "A Mexican mule
will do just so much work and not a
bit more. N
. "The riding mule, for instance, is
fully aware of the distance, down to a
rod, he is supposed and required to
traverse in the progress of one travel
ing day, and all the sharp sticks or
goads or dynamite on earth won't get
him to do a bit more than what he
knows to be -the correct distance. The
Mexicans have a peculiar saying in
connection with this characteristic of
the Mexican mule. You ask a Mexi
can, for instance, how far it Is by
muleback to such and such a point.
" 'Two days' journey if you are not
rushed, but three days if you are
in a hurry,' the Mexican will reply.
"His meaning is that if you don't
ask any more of your mule than you
should ask of him the mule will be
able to make the trip in two days. But
if you attempt to drive the brute he'll
soldier on you, and in consequence the
journey will take you three days.
"Now for the prescience of which I
spoke. I don't know what else to call
it The latest instance I saw of it
was when I was riding through the
state of Sonora a month or so ago on
an old gray mule that knew every turn
and twist of the road I was taking so
thoroughly that I let the bridle reins
hang and permitted him to go it alone.
"Along toward evening a terrific
thunder storm came up. The air was
heavy with the fumes of sulphur
something I had heard about but had
never experienced before and the
crashes were deafening. The road was
rocky and bad and there was only an
occasional scrub pine alongside.
"The old gray mule, when the storm
reached- its height, stopped his jog
of a sudden and stood in the middle
of the road, peacefully enough. He
wasn't worried, apparently, but he
considered that that was a pretty good
place to stand during the continuance
of the tremendous electrical storm,
for it was out in the open.
"For myself, I wanted to get under
the shelter of a pine tree about a hun
dred yards ahead of me. But the mule
couldn't and wouldn't see that. Him
for the open, and there he stood.
"I prodded him with the spurs, but
he merely looked around at me in a
dusgusted sort of way. Then I dis
mounted and tried to lead him. Noth
ing doing. He wouldn't budge.
"So at length, giving in to him that
he knew more about it than I did. I
wrapped my poncho about my head
and stood at his head, waiting for the
storm to pass. I hadn't stood by the
mule in that way for more than three
minutes before I saw a couple of balls
of red fire playing around the trunk
of the pine tree that I'd wanted to get
under the shelter of. Then there
came a positively deafening crash and
when I could see again there was that
pine tree stretched across the road
and a good part of it in kindling wood.
"I suppose maybe that old gray mule
didn't know. I give it to him, anyhow,
that he did."
The Pigs of Brittany.
"Brittany is all right," the traveled
man said, cautiously, "but beware of
the pigs there."
He had still an hour before the
steamer started, and he resumed:
"The Breton pig is not fat and indo
lent like ours. He is as lean and fiery
as a wolf, and twice a woolfs size.
All over Brittany you see him, swag
gering up and down the white roads,
in search of roots, berries, frogs, any
thingfor he must forage for himself
his master never feeds him. Step
out of his way, or he will snarl and
leap at you.
"The Bretons are great drunkards.
Sometimes they fall asleep beside the
road. They awake with a sharp pain
in the arm or leg, the pain of a hun
gry hog's teeth.
"And I could tell you a gruesome
story of the babyhood of a handless
Breton beggar whose parents once left
him alone in his cradle with the house
door open but it is too horrible."
A Good Dodge.
Senator Elkins was congratulated
at a dinner on his fine new yacht, the
Marietta.
From yachts to yachting clothes the
transition was easy, and Senator El
kins told a story.
"An old fellow," he said, "sat In a
seaside cafe. He had finished lunch
eon; he was now drinking champagne.
"The sun shone on the white sand,
the sea sparkled, and every little while
the old fellow ordered another cold
half-bottle.
"With the third order he said un
easily to the waiter:
"Waiter, is my nose getting red?'
" Yes, sir, the waiter answered, It
is, sir, Fm sorry to say, sir.'
" 'That won't do,' said the old fel
low. That won't do at all. Waiter,
send out and get me a yachting cap.' "
Looking Both Ways.
Mrs. Gudehart Mrs. Fair has such
a sunny disposition.
Mrs. Gossip And such ft shady
character.
True Both Ways.
"The die is cast!" hissed the vil
lain. Then, shaking their gold locks, the
chorus bounded on. ,
'It seems," the critic murmured,
"that the cast is 'dyed, too."
Professional Advice.
"Doctor, do yon think my, illness is
serious enough to justify me in set

"Um well, yon would be justified
In settling your accomnt with me."

FINDPtRATES'HOARD
WINDFALL FOR PEOPLE OF POR
TUGUESE VILLAGE.
Hidden Plunder of Long-Forgotten Sea
Banditti Revealed Through the
Encroachments of the At-
lantic Ocean on Coast.
The inhabitants of Paradelha, a tiny
fishing village on the Portuguese coast
some distance south of Lisbon, have
been growing rich of late on what
seems to have been the hidden plun
der of some long-forgotten pirate hand.
Some of them have gathered In as
much as $1,000 worth of treasure.
That part of the coast of Portugal
is suffering from the encroachments
of the ocean. Many houses have been
undermined in the last few years and.
have had to be abandoned. Sometimes
big slices of dry land slip off into the
Atlantic ocean on a stormy night and
the people wake up to 'find all land
marks changed.
This is what happened a couple of
weeks ago in a furious gale. The
waves washed far in over the upland
and carried away vast masses of the
upper soil, leaving the shelving beach
a couple of hundred feet wider than it
had ever been before. A fisherman
walking along the edge of the strand
saw something glistening in the slope
and rooting It out of the ground found
it was an ancient silver cup. He dug
some more and found quantities of
scattered gold and silver coins.
When the news got around the vil
lage the whole population turned out
to dig. They found still more money,
all dating back to the end of the
seventeenth and beginning of the
eighteenth centuries. There were rings
and brooches, crucifixes and jeweled
chalices, Jeweled sword handles and
table plate. Nobody knows just how
much the treasure amounted to, since
the fisherfolk hid it as fast as they
secured it, and when the official inqui
ries were made every one denied his
own share.
They are still digging, however, and
an occasional find is made. The sea
seems to have broken np the cache
and distributed its contents over many
acres of beach. Objects are picked
up as far as low water mark, and some
are doubtless washed back from time
to time from deep water.
It Is believed that the treasure rep
resents plunder from Spanish coast
towns. It Is said that long ago there
were numerous bands of Portuguese
pirates which committed depredations
on a considerable scale both afloat
and ashore, and when Portugal was at
peace with Spain they were obliged to
be very careful and hide their plunder.
From time to time other hoards of
the same sort have been discovered.
When this collection was buried, no
doubt, the spot was far enough from
the water's edge to be regarded as
safe for all time.
Serious Thoughts.
The multimillionaire was being
shaved. As he lay back in his chair,
looking upward, his grave face gave
the. impression that he was in deep
study:
"Ah," whispered one of the barber
shop loiterers, "I'll wager a dollar
against a toothpick that he Is think
ing of railroad mergers."
"No," said another, "he is think
ing about bear raids in Wall street."
"Bet he is pondering over the re
bate system," echoed a third.
"Ill ask him."
Walking over to the chair he said
politely:
"Beg pardon, sir, but to settle an
argument, would you kindly tell us
what mighty question you are study
ing over?"
The multimillionaire turned his
lathered face around and smiled. "I
was just studying two flies doing
handsprings on the ceiling," he chuck
led, and the trio of guessers looked
so sheepish they failed to hear "Next"
when it was called to them. Chicago

Antidote for Ingersoll.
Colonel Ingersoll was to speak in a
Western town. As an antidote the
good people announced for the follow
ing night: "An answer to Ingersoll!"
Circulars were even scattered about
the hall the night before, and one was
handed to Ingersoll by mistake as he
made his way toward the platform.
He was fairly into his subject, when
a mule attached to one of the vehicles
about the entrance opened up an oppo
sition, after the manner of mules. In
gersoll paused, listened intently till
the music ceased for an instant, then,
shaking a menacing finger In the di
rection whence the sound had come,
he cried:

cried the Fool. "Why, she has ruined

Minister's Successful Method of Gath
ering Congregation.
One of tbe most difficult proposi
tions that a new pastor has to face,
when he takes charge of a church that
has lallen off in attendance and gen
erally gone to seed, is to fill the pews
and build up the membership anew.
Not long ago this problem was solved
In a Brooklyn church. Before taking
hold the new pastor had planned a
scheme which he thought would work
moderately well, but which, in the end.
far exceeded his hopes in its results.
A few days before the eventful first
Sunday he called upon a dozen of the
"pillars of the church" and asked
them each to call up on the telephone
early on Sunday morning a half dozen
at least of their friends, and not only
ask them especially to come to church
that morning, but also to telephone
the same request to as many of their i
own friends as they could. They all
promised to do so, and when the cler
gyman reached his church that Sun
day he found it packed. He had pre
pared a rousing sermon and every one
went away well satisfied.
This method of getting a congrega
tion was continued along practically
the same lines for months. As a re
sult of the "drumming up" by tele
phone the size of the congregation In
creased enormously and the member
ship is greater than it ever was be
fore. As there is not room for more
in the old church they now are talk
ing of building a new one, and the pas
tor's salary is $2,000 a year bigger
than it was when he took hold.
