These live proposed amendments were approved by the legislature of 1911 and under the require ments of the constitution must be twice passed by the legislature before going to the people. The most important of the a mendments and which will prob ably figuro considerably in the campaign of 1912 when half of the members of tho senato and all of tho members of the next ho iso of representatives will bo selected, is that proposing that the giuerul assembly may au thoriza the borrowing of ."0, ooo,ooo for improvement ot public roads.

Only tho vory gentlest bowel medicine should ever be given, except in emergency cases. Ordinary pills, cathar tics and purgatives are apt to do more harm than good. They may cause griping, nausea and other distressing aftereflects that are frequently health-destroying. We personally recommend and guaranteo liexall Orderlies as the safest and most dependable remedy, which wo know, for con stipation and associate bowel disorders. We have such ab solute faith in the virtues of this remedy that we sell it on our guaranteo of tnouey back in every instance where it fails to give entire satisfaction, and wo urge all in need of such medicine to try it at our risk. liexall Orderlies are eaten just like candy, are particulary prompt aud agreeabij iu action, may bo taken at any time, day or night; do uot cause diarrhroa, nausea, griping, excessivo loose ness, or other undesirable effects. They have a very mild but posi tive action upon tho organs with which they come in contact, apparently acting as a regulative tonic upon tho relaxed muscular coat of tho bowel, thus over coming wt akness, and aiding to restoro the bowels to more vig orous and healthy activity. liexall Orderlies commoi'? completely relievo constipation, except of course when of a s .r gieal character. They also tei.d to overcome the necessity of con stniitly taking laxatives to keep the bowels in normal condition.
