The
Best Insurance
Vogeler’s Curative Compound furnishes
the best insurance at a very small cost. The
cures which it has made of blood, nerve,
skin, liver and kidney diseases, are most
marvellous. It insures protection against
the development of those every day ailments,
which are a menace to life and happiness.
A few doses of Vogeler’s, when dyspepsia,
constipation, headache, or nervousness
appear, will insure good health.
A free sample bottle will be sent on appli-
cation to the proprietors of St. Jacobs Oil,
Ltd., Baltimore, Md.
Sold by all druggists.

I have used St. Jacobs (Ml for several
years for lumbago and sprains and find it
the greatest pain reliever before the public.
I had a severe sprain on my right ankle
which I received last week, and by using
half a bottle of St. Jacobs Oil it is thoroughly
cured. It acts like magic. All my friends
in Gorleston, through it having cured me, are
using it when occasions require, and say it is
worth its weight in gold

Hardships Endured l>y Gorki.
Although Maxima Gorki has been
known as a writer only eight years,
more criticisms have been devoted to
him than to any Russian author ex-
cept Tolstoy. He is only thirty-three
years of age, was born in Nijni Nov-
gorod, lost his father and mother be-
fore he was nine years old, and set
out to make his way in the world at a
very early age. He wandered all over
Russia, undergoing such privations
and sufferings that on one occasion
he tried to commit suicide. At last,
after herding with rogues and vaga-
bonds and tramps, both in Europe and
In Asia, he discovered his vocation.
Lathrop, Mo. April 10—There is a
report here that President Roosevelt's j
order to investigate the British mule ;
purchases in America iacluue an ex-
amination cl the mule yard here at
La hrop.
Mules are sent from here to New
Orleans, where they are sent to
South Africa. There are ten Britlsn
officials here. They declare that the '!
Briish government does not own a
dollar of property in Clinton county,
| and that no horses have been bought
by the British war department in the
i United States. The purchases were
ail made in South Africa, these officers
say.
The attention of Gov. Dockery was
called to the statement that the Brit- ■
isli government had been buying |
horses and mules here for nearly a
! year. Major J. Moore, who is at the
head of the ten British officers here,
when asked the position of his govern-
: meat in the purchas s hai arc being
. made in the United States, quoted
I as saying that he was practically here
j the same as ai.y private citizen would
oe. Although he is an army officer
! and has seen active service during

Immense Consolidation of Dealers In
Iron Ware.
New York, April 10.—Authoritative
announcement of a consolidation of the
great hardware jobbing interests of
the country, capitalized at $120 000.000,
was made by the Iron Age in its Is-
sue today. The consolidation em-
braces the Simmons Hardware compa-
ny of St. Louis, Bindley Hardware
company of Pittsburg, William Bing-
ham company of Cleveland. Suppee
Hardware company of Philadelphia,,
Pacific Hardware and Steel company
of San Francisco,    Marshall-Wells
Hardware company of Duluth. Bigelow
and Dowse company of Boston. Van
Camp Hardware and Iron company of
Indianapolis. George Trltch Hardware j
company of Denver, Hanney, Sample,!
Hill & Co. of Minneapolis and forty
other houses representing nearly ev
erv important trade center of the coun-
try. Negotiations arc still pending
with other houses, and it is expected
that there will be further accessions
to the number already enrolled in Hie
combination.
The Iron Age says:    ‘ Several names
have been suggested for the consolida-
tion. such as the International Hard-
ware company. National Hardware and
Metat company, International Hard-
ware and Metal company, and there
is little doubt that one of these will
be the organization. The organization
not being technically completed, there
has been no formal choice of officers.
It is proposed that the officers shall
be as follows:
President—E. C. Simmons.
Vice President—John Bindley.
Chairman of Executive Committee—
W. D. Simmons.
There will be a board of directors,
eons'sting of from 25 to GO persons,
representing different sections of the,
country. There will also be an execu-
tive committee of nine.

Constipated Old Age
Isn’t it too bud that so many people, when they get old, get cranky and
rickety and mean, and don’t fee! right toward themselves or anybody else;
yet it need not be so.
“Six month’s ago I took rsprarots for con-
stipation contracted during tho War of the
Hr hellion. The result f« wonderful and I ad*
vis* all old soldiers to trr them.”
—Jas Putman, late Capt. 53rd 111.. Haney, Wls.
“I was feeling bail, losing flesh, had dull
headache, cold feet, and couldn’t sleep well.
1 took Cascareta and in four s eeks gained lj
pounds. Am feeling flue now.”—A. B..Story,
veteran Mexican ana Civil Wars, Eyworth, la.
I hare been using Cascarets for some time
for constipation, and tbelr greatest benefit
has b**n to cure me of asthma. I am In my
year and had been suffering with asthma
for years.”
—T. M. White. Bob Lee, Georgia.
All old people’s muscles get weak and flabby, and it’s the same with the
muscular walls of their intestines as with the muscles of their arms. When
the bowels grow weak, the old folks get constipated, bilious, sick, help-
less, irritable, and that’s the chief cause of their death. Old folks
should take Cascarets Candy Cathartic bowel tonic, keep their liver
lively, their bowels regular and strong, and live to be a hundred.
