Poisoning the System.
It is throrgh the bowels that the
body is cleansed of impurities.
Constipation keeps these poisons
in the system, causing heudache,
dullnessand melcholiaat, then un
sightly eruptions and finally ser
ious illness unless a remedy is ap
plied. DeWitt's Little Early Ris
ers prevent this trouble by stim
ulating the liver and promote easy
healthy actions of tho bowels.
These little pills do not act violent
ly but by strengthening the bow
els enable them to perform their
own work. Nevergripeordistress

ing. "Alice of Old Vincennex"
Another euchantiugly interest
ing story is delighting readers of
the' Sunday North American.
"Alice of Old Vinceunes, "by Mau
rice Thompson, is both thrilling
and pathetic, a word picture of
tho life of tho early settlers in In
diaua, which portrays tho lights
and shadows of pioneer days with
tho skill of the expert. Love ma
king in those days was apt to bo
interrupted by the sudden crack
of tho riflo aud the sudden ping
ing of a bullet on the door post.
They were stirring days of dan
ger, stern hardship and frequent
tragedies.
Through this border life, with
its shooting affrays and fierce
fights, Alice of Old Vinconnes
moves like a being from a world
of her own. She is a fascinating
character to those who compare
her with the modern girl. Aud
yet her prototype could bo read
ily found iu those strenuous pio
neer days. Here is a synopsis of
the opening chapters of the book:
Alice Roussillon is introduced
to tho reader. Sho is described
as a tall, lithe girl at play beneath
a cherry tree with her foster
brother, Jean, the hunchback.
They are interrupted by Pere Be
ret, the parish priest.
Gaspard Roussillon, tho adopt
ed father of tho children, a stal
wart French immigrant, had tak
en tho two waifs aud had given
them a home. Tho girl was of
Protestant parentage, but her
guardian, a devout Catholic, re
fused to iuterforo with her relig
ion, much to the regret of the
good priest.
After chiding the children for
their rough play Pere Beret was
told that a quantity of alcoholic
liquor had just reached Vin
ceunes. He made no sign of ap
proval or disapproval, but a.: he
sat on the doorsill of his home
thinking of it, a letter was hand
ed him.
The continuation of tho story
will bo found in the Sunday No; th
American.
