The Standard J in C < RELIEVES CONSTIPATION EASILY WITHOUT GRIPING OR DISCOMFORT. Indigestion und constipation are two conditions that are closely related and the cause of much physical suffering. The tendency to indulge one's uppetite is more or less general and most people suffer at one time or another from rebellion of tne overtaxed organs of H1 %r n? Unn pllmlng. tlon. A pleasantly effective remedy, that will quickly relieve the congestion of poisonous stomach waste and restore regularity, is the compound of simple laxative herbs sold In drug stores for fifty cents a bottle under-fcfee name of Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin. This is a mild, pleasant laxative tonic, free from opiates or narcotic drugs, and has been the i standard household remedy in thousands of homes for many years. Mrs. Oliver Young. Merrill, Wis., writing to Dr. Caldwell, says, she knows of nothing so effective for regulating the stomach and bowels; since taking Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin she feels ten years younger; her work seems easier and she has regained her appetite. PLANNING FOR THE COUNTRY. City planning no longer needs defense, though it sometimes needs urging. Everybody admits its needs, though they may be slow in adopting its ideals. But rural planning, touched upon at the recent con-; ference of the American Civic j association at Washington, needs the sort of propaganda; work that city planning did two decades ago. It still seents lo be the idea that man should lookearef ully after the city, but that Providence is directing the development of the coun* try. It was entirely logical, if startling, to have Prof. Frank A. Waugh, a pioneer in country planning, advocate that the same care be exercised in planning country roads that is exercised in laying out city streets; that the same attention be given to country homes that is given to the city blocks; that the same intelligence be expended on arranging a farm as in laying out a city subdivision. There is plenty of public land, as he pointed out, in the country where beginnings may be made. There are the roads, which constitute one of the bigv gest problems; the schools, and the churches. Thbse need to be studied, as to location and character of construction. But in country, as in city, planning should center about the home. It is not exaggeration to say, for health records will bear it out, that the average farm house is a breeding place for disease. Poor ventilation, arrangement, lighting and heating mark the average farm house, even of more modern construction. Provision for the agricultural employe is worse, though that for his employer is bad enough. Arrangements for social intercourse are inadequate; the movement to get full value for investment in school houses and churches has only just started. Moreover, with the growing road building, the country faces the same condition that cities face, having alterations made in streets at enormous cost which might have been saved by intelligence in the first place. * Country planning is going to be harder than city planning, for its needs are going to be harder to demonstrate to those who will be benefitted. John Jones, of this city, can recognize Tom Smith's needs when Tom Smith lives jam up against the wall. But Farmer Jones will find it harder to enthuse over Farmer Smith's needs when Farmer Smith lives half way across the state. Country planning, therefore, must be a state problem. It is too big for communities to handle alone. It requires that wise provision and supervision which can be had only by applying the beet intelligence of a state to that portion where, with few exceptions, more than half its population lives, and where that part of the population lives which keeps the city man clothed and fed.?Anderson Mail.
