With the Medicine we Recommend.
We are so positive that our
remedy will permanently relieve
constipation, no matter how chr-
onic it may be, that we offer to
furnish the medicine at our own
expense should it fail to produce
satisactory results.
It is worse than useless to at-
tempt to cure constipation with
cathartic drugs. Laxatives or
cathartics do much harm. They
cause a reaction, irritate, and
weaken the bowels and tend to
make constipation more chronic.
Besides, their use becomes a
habit that is dangerous.
Constipation is caused by a
weakness of the nerves and mus-
cles of the large intestine or de-
scending colon. To expect per-
manent relief you must there-
fore tone up and strengthen thes
organs and restore them to heal-
thier activity.
We want you to try Rexall Or-
derlies on our recommendation.
They are exceedingly pleasant to
take, being eaten like candy,and
are ideal for children, delicate
persons and old folks, as well as
for the robust. They act direct-
ly on the nerves and muscles of
the bowels. They apparently
have a neutral action on other
associate organs or glands. They
do not purge, cause excessiue
looseness, nor create any incon-
venience whatever. They may
be taken at any time, day or
nigh. They will positively re-
lieve chronic or habitual consti-
pation, if not of surgical variety,
and the myriads of acsociate or
dependent chronic ailments, if
taken with regularity for a reas-
onable length of lime. 12 tab-
lets, 10c; 36 tablets, 25c; 80 tab-
lets, 50c. Sold in Waynoka only

B'rinlnKhum, Ala. -The prohibition
law in Alabama Increased the Illicit
diallllitiK Industry ho greatly that J.
O. Thompson. Internal revenue col-
lector for Aluhntim and .Mississippi,
has asked the government for an In-
crease of deputies to cope with tha
situation.
During the past year, the deputies
In iheso two states have made over
four hundred arrests for moonshlnlng
and have destroyed nearly one thou-
sand stills. The Industry Is growing
in a pi to of the government's activity
In trying to stamp It out, and Collector
tnat, without the
moonshine business
never can be suppressed. A bill to
give state aid to the government in
stamping out moonshlnlng was killed
in the past session of the Alabama
legislature. ;
Reasons For Moonshlnlng.
There are three reasons why the lg-
nortmt moonshiner .will continue to^
make and sell whisky. First, thej
profit from the sale of Illicitly made*
whisky is enormous. Secondly, there'
Is a fascination about the business
which appeals to mountaineer and,
lowlander alike arising from the com-1
bination of danger and the pitting ofi
the wits of the moonshiner against,
those of the revenue deputies. Third-,
ly, the moonshiner can see no moral,
wrong in making whisky from grain,
the earth produces, and selling it far
a living. ,
Moonshiners make profits averaging
as high as $100 a day. A still was1
destroyed in the mountains of Ala-
bama recently which cost $50. It was
turning out seventy gallons of whisky
a day when it was captured, and the,
product of the still sold for $2 a gal-;
Ion and was disposed of as soon as
made. A still called ‘ the pan and
snake’’ costs $6. It will average five
bushels of corn a day and will earn
about $25.
Ideal For Distiller.
Winston, Lawrence, Blount, Jack-,
son, Marshall, DeKalb, Walker and
other mountain counties are the corn
whisky producing centers of the state.
In the lowlands a product is madei
from syrup scrapings. The geography
of the mountain sections of Alabama
is peculiarly adapted to the- business.
Revenue officers know well the danger
that may lurk behind rocks and in the'
deep defiles and dark hollows of these
silent regions.
The moonshiner is very much the'
same in looks as the farmer of his re--
gion. Usually he is alert and shrewd
and suspicious of strangers. He is
the soul of hospitality to the stranger'
whom he knows is not meddling; but
(he stranger must walk straight, talk,
openly and be able to give a good ac-
count of himself, his business and his
mission in the mountains. The moun-
taineer has a hundred ways of send-
ing messages. He is confirmed in his
ways; he will brook no outside inter-
ference and he is prepared to defend,
Idmseif and what he believes to be his
rights.
Made “Dew” 30 Years.
In the mountains of Alabama there
Is a hoary-haired member of the tribe
who has been making “mountain dew”
for thirty years or more. More than
li thousand nights he has stood guard'
in the lonely hills, resting on his rifle1
and ready at the slightest sound to
pend the warning to his fellow moon-
shiners. He grows wrathy when he
speaks of the government’s attitude
toward moonshining.
“Corn is usually worth somewhere
around fifty cents a bushel," the old
man says. “It is a long way to the
market and frequently we can’t sell itj
when we reach there. By running it
into whisky we provide a ready mar-
ket for our corn. Good corn whisky
brings about $1.50 a gallon, so we get
about $6 a bushel if we sell it that
way.
“We raise most of the corn manu-
factured into whisky and feel that we
have a moral right to prepare it for
tlie market in the most profitable way.
We concede that the revenue officers
have a right to arrest us, but we do
not believe they have a right to de-
stroy and confiscate our property. It
fs this destruction of property that has
caused moonshiners to become such
bitter enemies of the revenue officers."’.
He threw his long range repeater
over his shoulder and disappeared
among the heights, while a shout
heard from a distant hill and three
taps of a farm bell in reply from a
neighooring valley told that all was
well.

A Killing at Quinlan.
Quinlan, Okla., Oct. 31 —Fred
Howe,a farmer living near here,
was found dead at his home this
afternoon, with a bullet in his
head. His wife and grown dau-
ter lay nearby, insensible fron.
having been beaten over the head
with the butt of a revolver.
Both the women were still un-
conscious at a late hour tonight.
It is supposed that Howe, who
is said to have had family trou-
bles, sought to kill the women,
and thinking he had done so ht
turned the gun on himself.

courtesy and the able manner in
which they made the awards.
The Tribune wishes to add
that the public spirited manner
in which Mr. Cheek gets at mat-
ters of this sort is gaining many
friends, both for himself and
for the town. Farmers like to
have the business man take an
interest in their work, and Mr.
Cheek will doubtless double his
efforts along this line next year.
The citizens owe him a vote of
thanks for his efforts, unaided
and alone.
