BILIOUS, HEADACHY,
SICK "CASCARETS"
Gently cleanse your liver am
sluggish bowels while
you sleep.
Get a 10-cent box.
Sick headache, biliousness, dlzzii
ness, coated tongue, foul taste and foul
breath—always traca thein to torpid
liver; delayed, fermenting food in the
bowels or sour, gassy stomach.
Poisonous matter clogged in the In-
testines, instead of being cast out
of the system is re-absorbed into the
blood. When this poison reaches the
delicate brain tissue it causes coo
gestlon and that dull, throbbing, sick-
ening headache.
Cascarets Immediately cleanse the
stomach, remove the sour, undigested
food and foul gases, take the excess
bile from the liver and carry out all
the constipated waste matter and
poisons in the bowels.
A Cascaret to-night will surely
straighten you out by morning. They
work while you sleep—a 10-cent box
from your druggist means your head
clear, stomach sweet and your liver
and bowels regular for months. Adv.

The horse had run away and was
tangled up in the wire fence at the
side of the muddy road. Its half-wit-
ted owner had kicked and sworn and
tried to lift the animal until he was
out of sorts and covered with mud.
A well-groomed man came along,
took In the situation, and suggested:
"Spring the fence back, then he can
get his feet free."
The owner of the horse did as he
was told. "Now give him a cut with
the whip and he'll get up himself."
This the owner did. Then he looked
at the horse, up and ready for travel,
looked at himself covered with mud,
Bnd looked at the immaculate gentle-
man in the road. Wrath filled his
soul.
"Well," he grumbled, "thank you
lust as much as if you'd helped me."
FALLING HAIR MEANS
DANDRUFF IS ACTIVE
Save Your Hair! Get a 25 Cent Bottle

Stops Itching Scalp.
Thin, brittle, colorless and scraggy
ha:r is mute evidence of a neglected
Bcalp; of dandruff—that awful scurf.
There is nothing so destructive to
the hair as dandruff. It robs the hair
of its luster, Its strength and Its very
life; eventually producing a feverish-
ness and itching of the scalp, which
if not remedied causes the hair roots
to shrink, loosen and die—then the
hair falls out fast. A little Danderlne
tonight—now—-any time—will surely
6ave your hair.
Get a 25 cent bottle of Knowlton's
Danderlne from any store, and after
the first application your hair will
take on that life, luster and luxuriance
which is so beautiful. It will become
wavy and fluffy and have the appear
ance of abundance; an Incomparable
gloss and softness, but what will
please you most will be after just a

HK ILL NOT
BE EXECUTED
SUPREME COURT OF THE UNITED
STATES FINALLY TO
REVIEW CASE.
CONSTITUTIONAL RIGHT DENIED
Is the Contention, Because He Was
Not In Court When Jury Rend-
ered Its Verdict.—Justice
Lamar Grants Reprieve.
Washington.—Justice Lamar of the
United States supreme court granted
an appeal from the refusal of the fed-
eral district court for northern Geor-
gia to release on habeas corpus pro-
ceedings Leo M. Frank, under death
sentence for the murder of Mary Pha-
gaa, 14-year-old factory girl of At-
lanta, Ga.
As a result of Justice Lamar's ac-
tion the entire court now will pass
upon Frank's right to seek release on
a writ of habeas corpus on the ground
that the trial court lost jurisdiction
over him by its failure to have him
present when the verdict was re-
turned.
Should the court decide that Frank
was entitled to ask for the writ, the
case probably would be remanded to
the district court for the taking of
evidence but should the supreme court

decide that he was not entitled to the
benefit of the habeas corpus writ the
state of Georgia would no longer be
barred from imposing the death sen-
tence. In the event the supreme court
eventually decides that Frank must be
released from custody, it was said a
further question, about wheh there is
uncertainty, would arise as to tha
power of the state to indict and try
him a second time.
it is said authorities differ as to
whether the first trial would be re-
garded as having placed Frank in
"jeopardy."

Washington. — The United States
government has dispatched a long note
to Great Britain insisting upon early
ipmorvement in the treatment of
American commerce by the British
fleet. It gave warning that much feel-
ing had been aroused in this country
aud that public criticism was general
over unwarranted interference with
the legitimate foreign trade of the
United States.
The document, constituting th6
strongest representation on this sub-
ject made by the United States to any
of the belligerents since the outbreak
of the war, was cabled to Ambassador
Page to be formally presented to Sir
Edward Grey, the British foreign sec-
retary. >
As the detailed point of view of the
United States in numerous specific
cases of detentions and seizures of
cargoes had been set forth in a series
of emphatic protests most of which
have gone unheeded, the communica-
tion was couched in general terms,
covering the entire subject of the rela-
tions between the United States and
Great Britain as affected by the lat-
ter's naval policy considered highly
objectionable hv this government.
The note declares at Its outset that
the representations are made Tn a
friendly spirit, but the United States
considers it best to speak In terms of
frankness, lest silence be construed as
an acquiescence in a policy on tha
part of Great Britain wntch infringe?
the rights of American citizens under
the law of nations.
Since France has adopted practical
ly the same decree on contraband as
has Great Britain, the note is virtu-
ally a statement intended for all the
mempers of the triple entente.

MR. BUSBY AS A HUMORIST
Of Course It Doesn't Often Happen,
But on This Occasion He
Failed to Score.
Busby—I see th' Turks have been
kicking up th' sand around the Suez
canal.
Mrs. B. (faintly interested)—Some
religious ceremony?
Busby—No-o-o! It's war. They're
fighting. The report from Berlin says
they've licked th' British army to a
frazzle. It looks as if the canal would
fall into th' Turks hands.
Mrs. B. (calmly)—I can't see what
good it would do them.
Busby (leading up to his climax) —
Why, they'd loot it.
Mrs. B. (innocently)—Of what?
Busby (triumphantly)—Of the hard-
ware. They'd take the locks, of course.
Ha, ha. ha!"
A brief silence ensues.
Mrs. Busby (sweetly)—But there
ar no locks in the Suez canal.
And it wasn't any consolation to
Busby to remember that he had no
one but himself to blame.
Something in This Name.
In New Y'ork a teapher found that
a little negro girl was named Fertiliz-
er Johnson.
"Are you sure that Fertilizer is your
right name?" she asked.
"Yes, ma'am," replied the little girl.
"Well, tell your mother to come
here," said the teacher.
The mother came the next day.
"Yes; Fertilizer is right," she said.
"You see, I named her after her father
and mother both. Her father's name is
Ferdinand and my name is Liza, so we
called her Fertilizer."
Wond.ers of Science.
A French scientist says that the bil-
lions of cubic feet of heated gas that
have been shot into the upper air
since the first of August have been
displaced by cold air from the north
pole, thus causing the early freeze
along the battle line. On the same
theory it may be that the safe and
sane Fourth of July crusade was to
blame for our hot summer.
No Failure Is Final.
One of Napoleon's marshals is said

Napoleon coolly looked at his watch
and replied:
"Time for another battle. Summon
the army to a fresh charge."

THE CANADIAN GOVERNMENT
ASKING FOR INCREASED ACRE-
AGE IN GRA'N, TO MEET
EUROPEAN DEMAND.
There are a number of holders of
land in Western Canada, living in the
United States, to whom the Canadian
Government will shortly make an ap
peal to place the unoccupied areas
they are holding under cultivat'on.
The lands are highly productive, but
in a state of idleness they are not
giving any revenue beyond the un-
earned increment and are not of the
benefit to Canada that these lands
could easily be made. It is pointed
out that the demand for grains for
years, to come will cause good prices
for all that can be produced. Not
only will the price of grains be af-
fected, but also will that of cattle,
[ hogs and horses, in fact, everything
| that can be frown on the farms. When
placed under proper cultivation, not
the kind mat is often resorted to,
which lessens yield and land values,
many farms will pay for themselves in
two or three years. Careful and in-
tensive work is required, and if this
is given in the way it is given to the
high-priced lands of older settled
countries, surprising results will fol-
low.
There are those who are paying rent,
who she 'd not be doing so. They
would do better to purchase lands In
Western Canada at the present low
price at which they are being offered
by land companies or private individ-
uals. These have been held for the
high prices that many would have
realized, but for the war and the finan
cial stringency. Now is the time to
buy; or if it is preferred advantage
might be taken of the offer of 160
acres of land free that is made by the
Dominion Government. The man who
owns his farm has a life of indepen-
dence. Then again there are those
who are renting who might wish to
continue as renters. They have some
means as well as sufficient outfit to be-
gin in a new country where all the
advantages are favourable. Many of
the owners of unoccupied lands would
be willing to lease them on reasonable
terms. Then again, attention is drawn
to the fact that Western Canada num-
bers amongst its most successful farm-
ers, artisans, business men, lawyers,
doctors and many other professions.
Farming today is a profession. It is
no longer accompanied by the drudg-
ery that we were acquainted with a
generation ago. The fact that a man
is not following a farming life today,
does not preclude him from going on
a Western Canada farm tomorrow,
and making a success of It. If he Is
not in possession of Western Canada
land that he can convert into a farm
he should secure some, make it a
farm by equipping it and working it
himself. The man who has been hold-
ing his Western Canada land waiting
for the profit he naturally expected
has been justified in doing so. Its
agricultural possibilities are certain
and sure. If he has not realized im-
mediately by making a sale, he should
not worry. But to let it lie idle Is not
good business. By getting it placed
under cultivation a greater profit will
come to him. Have it cultivated by
working It himself, or get some good
representative to do it. Set about get-
ting a purchaser, a renter or some
one to operate on shares.
The department of the Dominion
Government having charge of the Im-
migration, through Mr. W. D. Scott,
Superintendent at Ottawa, Canada, is
directing the attention of non-resident
owners of Western Canada lands to
the fact that money will De made out
of farming these lands. The agents
of the Department, located at different
Points in the States, are rendering as-
sistance to this end.—Advertisement.
Ammunition Used in War. '
How much ammunition does a mod-
ern army use? We shall not know
until after the war what the German
and the allied forces have been ex-
pending; but we know what the Ger-
mans used In 1870-71. The total for
rlflea was 30.000,000 cartridges, for
field artillery 362,000 rounds. II is
worth noting that battles are much
1'^ss costly in ammunition than sieges.
The, siege of Strassburg alone cost,
weight for weight, three times the
amount of ammunition used In all the
decisive battles and actions through
out the whole war. Of course these
figures are a mere bagatelle com-
g<e, with Us millions of soldiers and
its njiiek-firing guns and its week-long
battles.-—Manchester Guardian.
Stop using calomel! It makes you
Bick. Don't lose a day's wcrrk. If you
feel lazy, sluggish, bilious or consti-
pated, listen to me!
Calomel is mercury or quicksilver
which causes necrosis of the bones
Calomel, when it comes into contact
with sour bile crashes into it, breaking
it up. This is when you feel that aw-
ful nausea and cramping. If you feel
"all knocked out," if your liver is tor-
pid and bowels constipated or you
have headache, dizziness, coated
tongue, if breath Is bad or stomach
sour Just try a spoonful of harmless
Dodson's Liver Tone.
Here's my guarantee—Go to any
drug store or dealer and get a fiO-cent
bottle of Dodson's Liver Tone. Take a
spoonful and if it doesn't straighten
you right up and make you feel fine
and vigorous I want you to go back to
the store and get your money. Dod-
son's Liver Tone is destroying the
sale of calomel because it is real liver
medicine; entirely vegetable, therefora
it cannot suliv'ate or make you sick.
I guarantee that one spoonful of
Dodson's I.lver Tone will put your
sluggish liver to work and clean your
bowels of that sour bile and consti-
pated waste which is clogging /our
system and making you feel miserable.
I guarantee that a bottle of Dodson's
Liver Tone will keep your entire fam-
ily feeling fine for months. Give It to
your children. It Is harmless; doesn't
gripe a:id they like its pleasant taste.

TAKE SALTS TO FLUSH
KIDNEYS IF BACK HURTS
Says Too Much Meat Forms Uric Acid
Which Clogs the Kidneys and
Irritates the Bladder.
Most folks forget that the kidneys,
like the bowels, get sluggish and clog-
ged and need a flushing occasionally,
else we have backache and dull misery
in the kidney region, severe head-
aches, rheumatic twinges, torpid liver,
acid stomach, sleeplessness and all
sorts of bladder disorders.
You simply must keep your kidneys
active and clean, and the moment you
feel an ache or pain in the kidney
region, get about four ounces of .lad
Salts from any good drug store here,
take a tablespoonful in a glass of
water before breakfast for a few days
and your kidneys will then act flue.
This famous salts is made from the
acid of grapes and lemon juice, com-
bined with lithia, and is harmless to
flush clogged kidneys and stimulate
them to normal activity. It also neu-
tralizes the acids in the urine so it
no longer irritates, thus ending blad-
der disorders.
Jad Salts is harmless; Inexpensive;
ma>kes a delightful effervescent lithia-
water drink which everybody should
take now and then to keep their kid-
neys clean, thus avoiding serious com-
plications.
