The Best Way to Treat
Constipation
By S. C. BABCOCK, M. D.
The medical books name many
drugs that will move the bowels.
The drug store shelves are loaded |
down with laxatives, purgatives and j
pills. The trouble with most of |
them is the after-effects. Consti-1
pated people know that pills work j
all right for a little while, but they |
toon lose their effect, and a change j
has to be made to something else.
The constant taking of pills results
in a form of bowel inactivity that
Is difficult to cure. The system be
comes so accustomed to laxative
drugs that the organs just won't
work without them, and so the pill
habit becomes as bad as constipation
itself. Dr. Pierce, of Buffalo, N. Y., j
geems to me to have the right idea, j
He says the bowels should first be |
gently moved with Pierce's Pleasant!
Pellets, and in the meantime laxa
tive foods only should be eaten.
Figs, prunes, olive oil, spinach, bran,
vegetables and fruits are fine for
constipation. Chew every bite thor
oughly, eat little meat, and be as ac
tive as possible. Now, doesn't that
seem sensible? Pleasant Pellets
will start the bowels working right;
then it is up tp you to keep them
right by right eating. Try Pleasant
Pellets for sick headache, coated
tongue, biliousness, dizziness, torpid
liver or to break up a cold. They
are just fine!
Dr. Pierce's Anodyne Pile Oint
ment soothes, cools and heals piles
in a most gratifying way. Perhaps
there is no other remedy for this
torturing trouble that relieves so
surely and quickly. Dr. Pierce be
lieves Anpdyno Pile Ointment will
overcome any case that can be over
come by medical treatment. Try It
right now.
Dr. Pierce's Anuric Tablets are
intended for people who suffer from
kidney disorders —whose backs ache,
arid Whose systems are over-run with
uric acid. Nearly everybody has
too much uric acid. Anuric Tab
lets dissolve uric acid quickly, as
tboy are made double strength.
PRESCRIPTION WAS
WRITTEN 60
YEARS AGO
The True Historyof Father
John's Medicine
One of the interesting places in
Lowell, Mass., is the old apothecary
shop on Merrimack street, established
in 1827. This location is still a drug
store, although of course modernized
in many departments. The old pre
scription books, however, have been
preserved and fcrm an interesting
record covering nearly a century.
Perhaps one of the most interesting
books is that of the year 1855. On one
of the pages of this book, that dated
June 9th, 1855, is written the original
prescription for Father John's Medi
cine. This prescription was com
pounded for the Reverend Father John
O'Brien at the
JoA. successful i n
WOi eft JSL* treating Father
Ml.llOTiJ°. hn ' s ai,mcnt '
MM*-! mMI which was a
m r| ■ severe coTcl and
parishioners. In
Th. Old Going to the
Prescription Book drug store and
'calling for the
medicine, they
always asked for Father John's Medi
cine, and in this way the medicine got
its name and was advertised.
Father John's Medicine is a safe
family medicine for colds, coughs,
throat troubles, and as a tonic and
body builder, because it does not con
tain opium, morphine, chloroform, and
any other poisonous drugs, or alcohol,
but is all pure, wholesome nourishment

UNUSUAL WILL
CASE IN COURT
Contest of Mother of Eccentric
Printer Comes Up For Trial
After Lapse of Ten Years
Sunbury, -Pa., June 11. —An un
usual will case was tried before
Judge Boyle, of Luzerne county, spe
cially presiding in the Northumber
land county court here yesterday.
Elmer Scott, an eccentric printer,
died at Shamokin in 1909, leaving
the bulk of his $5,000 estate to be
invested and the proceeds to be spent
annually to provide a Christmas tree
and gifts for Sliamokin's poor chil
dren.
His mother, Mrs. Esther Scott,
contested the will on the grounds
that he was the victim of chronic
alcoholism at the time of his death
and in no mental condition to make
a will. Much testimony to this effect
was offered by the plaintiff's counsel,
J. A. Welsh, of Shamokin, while no
defense was offered.
The case was in the courts ten
years before a jury trial was order
ed. A peculiar condition existed.
Judge Mnfer, before he was elected
to the bench was executor of Scott's
estate, and Judge Cummings was in
terested as counsel for the plaintiff
before he became a judge of the
courts. So Judge Boyle was called
in to preside over the trial of the
issue. - J

Designed For Efficient
Economical Hauling
The Autocar is birilt to carry its load on all four
wheels. With heavy burdens the strain is evenly dis
tributed, which means economical operation and up
keep.
The basic merit of this design produces a truck
sturdy enough for heavier loads but equally as econ

The National Lead Company has found the
sturdy construction and economical operation of the
Autocar invaluable in its business.
