Indigestion Ma Due to Constipation Neglect of Important Function May Seriously Impair The Health There are many people who believe they suffer from indigestion when their discomfort really is due to a consti pated condition. Bloat, with its attendant mental de pression. sick-headache, the belching of sour stomach gases, etc.. are fre quently due to inaction of the bowels. Relieve the congestion and the trou ble usually disappears. The use of cathartics and purgatives should be avoided, however; these shock the system unnecessarily and, at best, their effect is but temporary. A mild laxa tive Is far preferable. The compound of simple laxa tive herbs known a* Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin and sold In drug stores for fifty cents a bottle, is highly rec ommended. Mr. Ben.l. Bassin. 3t>o Madison St., Gary, Ind., thinks Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin a wonderful medicine: for four years he had a se vere case of indigestion and constipa tion before trying Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin, which he is glad to recom mend to all w|io suffer with stomach and bowel trouble.

George K. Staples of this city, gen eral chairman of the convention com- ' | mittee. predicted today that upwards ' : of 100,000 visitors will be attracted by the convention. Most of these will j be nobles and their wives and fam ilies. coming from the 139 temples of this country, Canada and Mexico. Everything in connection with the Shrine annual meeting looms big in figures. The attendance will bring a multitude of people together. Tlie uniformed patrols with their bands will make a creditable army, nearly < 5.000 uniformed men and almost as many bandsmen. The sums that will be spent bv visiting delegations on ! iheir special train equipment, trav eling expenses and other outlays will run into the millions. Buffalo will disburse a 1100.000 entertainment funu. One San Francisco temple is spending $75,000 on a special train - Journey. The Chicago temple will lease the largest passenger steamer i on the Great Lakes for the trip to Buf falo. quarters while here and the re turn trip The boat and supplies is to cost it SIO,OOO. Other temples from various parts of North America have i equally elaborate plans for the 1916 I pilgrimage. Camels as MnscntA Many patrols will bring mascots with them. One from the desert region of the southwest will have a flock of camels. That from El Paso, Tex., will bring 100 burros. If the Shriners from El Paso can be pre vailed upon to do so they will ride the burros in the big parade of the ses- j sion, in which, it is estimated, any- , where from 20,000 to 80.000 Shriners will participate. A Calgary temple has secured a buffalo from one of the few remaining herds, which happens to be owned in that locality. It will be presented to the Buffalo zoo when the convention is over. Represent atives from the Shrine temple at Honolulu will bring some animal typi cal of the Hawaiian islands. They have written that it will be one suit able for the ceremonial sessions of Ismailia temple of Buffalo and will be donated to it, but that it isn't a goat. All Hotel spa<f Leaspd The imperial council session will be held July 11. 12 and 13. Most of the hotel space in Buffalo and at Ni agara Kalis. which is a suburb con- 1 venientlv reached, has been leased by ' agents for visiting temples. Gen eral Chairman Staples and Potentate John T. Claris of the Buffalo Shrine, however, have found that there is al- i ways room for one more and are con- ! tinuing to book accommodations for visitors. Every effort is being made ; by the arrangement committee to give visitors suitable entertainment. For the patrols the 65th Regiment armory has been secured and here the patrol . members will be quartered just as if they were troops billeted on the city. A caterer will use the armory kitchen in preparing meals. The armory will I be equipped with all the facilities of an immense hotel. This preparatory ' work has been attended to by Capt. H. 1 Sackett of Ismailia Patrol and he has sent to other patrol comnian- 1 ders assurances that their organiza tions will be well cared for. This', includes an elaborate entertainment program as well as quartering. The big event of this program is to he a patrol banquet at which 5.000 men j will be guests. To Visit Training Camp. For all Shriners. it is the hope of the Buffalo hosts, arrangements will l>e made for a visit to the Canadian military training camp at Niagara on ! the lake. This camp is within easy reach of Buffalo. Negotiations with the Canadian military authorities for , a suspension of the rigid rules against ; visitors entering camp now are un- j j der way. It also is expected that' the Niagara Palls power companies ! which of late have been chary of ad- , mining visitors to their underground works will make provision for the Shriners to inspect these great hydro electric power houses during the im perial council session. The great mass of visitors will come to Buffalo on special trains. Many of these will be parked in the city ! for habitation purposes If travelers on them prefer sleeping car quarters to hotels. An advantageous parking: location has been secured by action of the city, near the pumping station with a fine view of Lake Erie. It is expected nearly 10.000 persons will be accommodated on the parked { trains. By Train and Auto. From the east, New England. New York city. Philadelphia and eastern New York a great automobile tour to the convention is being organized. In this automobile parties from the sec tions named will converge at Syracuse 1 so as to form a procession of ve- i hides across the state and into Buf- ~ falo. It is assured that upwards of 2.50(i automobiles will be in this tour. 1 making it the greatest automobile j' event of its kind in the country's his tory. J. Putnam Stevens,'imperial poten-! tate of the Shrine, returned a few days ago to his home in Portland, i Me., from a three months' tour | through the United States and to the Hawaiian islands, on which he vis- 1 : ited many temples. He reported on | his return that the imperial council < session of his usmmer gives every in- I dication of being the greatest gath ering ever held by any fraternal gath ganization in the world. Solving Incmpioyiixnt Problems. As regards unemployment there should be a national bureau of em ployment under the direction of the department of commerce, this bureau to be in control of bureaus in the sev eral States, the State bureaus to di rect employment bureaus in the vari ous cities. There should also be workingmen's hotels where men out I of work could go at nominal cost, with provisions, to be worked out by the government, for enabling men look ing for work to travel at reduced fare on railroads, the same as is done In j Germany. There should bo Btate and i city farms for the derelicts of society, [those unfortunates which constitute our "down and out" class. There should be city. State and national ; movements like roadways, irrigation projects, canals and waterways and the like to give men employment In times of depression or when there is a surplus problem if the work is un der the control of the government and in the hands of experts.—C.

The Hollis ! farm loan hill, embodying the Adminis tration plan for establishing a system of rural credits, passed the Senate last night by a vote of 58 to 5. Senators Brandegee, I.odge.
