How to Overcome
a Bad Constipation
SHAWNEE DAILY NEWS-HERALD-

Five of the Battleships Ordered to TampicoTSeno, Admaal in Command, and
iliere In a .Mild Laxative That Will
Hring .Safe anil Pleasant Belief
Over Night.
It is only natural that the simplest
of ailments should be tlie most gen-
eral, and so we have a whole na-
tion suffering from constipation and
indigestion, for they are closely al-
lied. But common as constipation is,
many people do not seem to know
they have it. They will complain of
headache, drowsiness or biliousness,
all unconscious of the cause of the
trouble.
You should have a full and free
movement at least once a day. If
jou pass a day, you are constipated
and the result will be that you will
catch a cold easily or have a more
serious ailment. To cure the con-
stipation and forestall still graver
trouble, take a dose of Dr. Caldwell's
Syrup Pepsin at night before retir-
ing. and by morning relief will come,
without disturbance from sleep or any
inconvenience.
Legions of people use it regularly
in such emergencies, some of them
formerly chronic invalids who had
suffered from constipation all their
lives. Mrs. N. Frantz, 67 Eighth
street, Salem, Ohio, took physics for
years, and, worst of all, without
much avail. Finally, she began to
take Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin
and today she is no longer troubled
and eats what she likes. Many oth-
ers will tell you that they have tried
most things recommended for this
Mrs. N. Frantz.
purpose, but have found Syrup Pep
sin the only one always reliable. A
bottle can be obtained at any drug
store for fifty cents or one dollar
the latter size being bought by fam
Hies already familiar with its
merits.
Syrup Pepsin Is mild, pleasant
tasting and non-griping. Mothers
give it to tiny Infants, and yet it is
effective in grownups. It is for ev-
eryone who suffers from any form
of stomach, liver or bowel trouble
constipation, dyspepsia, biliousness
etc. Its action will so delight you
that you will forever avoid harsh
cathartics, purgatives, pills and salts
Families wishing to try a free
sample bottle can obtain it postpaid

fleet of the American navy, and a
number of gunboats and auxiliaries,
have been ordered to Tamplco, Mex.,
by President Wilson as a result of
the failure of the Mexicans to salute
the American flag In recognition of
their mistake in arresting a number
of sailors and officers from the bat-

TON SEED AND UNDESIR-
ABLE VARIETIES IN OKLAHOMA,
TEXAS AND ARKANSAS.
The attention of the department of
agriculture has been called to the
very unsatisfactory condition of a
large part of the cotton seed which
has been reserved for planting in
Oklahoma and parts of Texas and
Arkansas. Weather conditions during
a large part of the picking season
were unfavorable and a large per-
centage of this seed has been In-
jured in vitality. Unless the germ-
ination tests are made on all seed
to be used for planting purposes It
is believed that many very unsatis-
factory stands will reBult.
The attention of the department
has also been called to the fact that
an active campaign has been under-
taken to introduce into portions of
this territory a variety of cotton
which Is represented as producing
50 per cent of lint, or it 500-pound
bale of cotton.
The department representatives
have examined this cotton In the
field and have grown it in experi-
mental plantings during the last
two seasons. The lint has been found
to be exceedingly short, the large
proportion of lint to seed apparently
resulting from the fact that the
seeds are very small and light. The
department has always refrained
from recommending It because It was
believed that Its very short staple
would soon be recognized by the
millB, and that there would be con-
sequent discrimination agnliiBt it.
Uurlng the past season several of
the largest cotton buying firms in
Oklahoma and Texas Issued orders
to their agents not to purchase this
cotton at any price. They stated
that its lint was so far Inferior to
that ordinarily grown in their terrl-'
tory that they knew it would not be '
acceptable to any of their regular
customers. The department has.
within the last few weeks, received
several letters from planters In Ar-
kansas, asking advice concerning this
cotton and stating that local buyers
were warning them agalnBt It be-
cause the mills were discriminating
against the localities in which it is
being largely grown.
In view of these facts the depart-
ment warns the farmers of Arkansas,
Oklahoma and Texas that the intro-
duction of any new variety of cotton
producing fibre of IesB than seven-
eighths of an Inch in length will be I
likely to seriously damage the repu-1
tation of their local markets and
may result within a few years in bas-
ing the price on this inferior cotton.
These same districts are now receiv-
ing a slight premium over the regu-
lar quotations for short staple. The
department will particularly regret to
see the result of the campaign which
has been waged in Oklahoma in be-
half of pure Triumph cotton Jeoj-
ardized by the promiscuous introduc-
tion of a cotton of greatly inferior
staple. Such a policy must result in
very serious losses to all the grow-
ers In the communities where the
poorer types become common.
Repeated complaints are received
from English spinners of the number
of "mlxy" bales of American cotton.
This condition arises largely through
the introduction of short cotton into
staple communities or of long staple
into short-cotton territory.
Any serious mixing of varieties
which have fiber of different lengths
results In Berious losses In waste
whenever the cotton is spun upon
machinery adjusted for the longer
varieties. SpinnerB who are using
1 riumph will bo quirk to discover
any serious admixture of shorter and
inferior cotton, and growers of Tri-
umph cotton will suffer if such varl-
over. Admiral Charles J. Badger

fleet, will probably be in charge of
