MEDICAL ADVICE 1/ you want to • • • • relieve constipation safely • • • regulate the dose to suit your exact need • • • avoid danger of bowel strain —use a liquid laxative T w Can constipation be safely relieved? “Y*r say medical men. “Yes!” declare thousands who have fol lowed their advice and know. You are not apt to cure your constipation with salts, pills, and tablets, or any habit-forming ca thartic. But you con relieve this condition just by gentle regulation with a suitable liquid laxative. Why Hospitals Use ^ a liquid laxative ^The dose of a liquid laxative.can be measured. The action can he con trolled. It forms no habit; you need not take a “double dose” a day or two later Will not irritate kidneys. The right liquid laxative will bring a perfect movement, with no dis comfort at the time, or afterward. The wrong cathartic may keep you constipated as long as you keep on using itt In buying any laxative, read the label. If it contains a doubtful drug, don’t take it. If you don’t know what is in it, don’t chance it. The contents of Dr. Caldwell’s Syrup Pepsin is stated plainly on the label; fresh herbs, pure pepsin, active senna. Its very taste tells you Dr. Caldwell’s Syrup Pepsin is whole some. A delightful taste, and de lightful action. Safe for expectant mothers, and children. Drug stores have it, ready for use, in big bottles. Edward A.

Higher Cotton Yields After Winter Legumes Florence, March 10.—Cumulative benefits derived by cotton follow ing winter legume cover crops in tests at the Pee Dee Experiment Station here, are becoming more apparent each year, says E. E. Hall, superintendent of the station, reporting upon these convincing tests. “For several years”, says Mr. Hall, “the same acres have been seeded to Austrian winter peas, hairy vetch, Monantha vetch and Hungarian vetch to determine to what extent nitrogen necessary for 'he following cotton crop can be supplied by growing winter leg umes. About March 15 each year these crops are turned under, pre paratory to planting cotton about April 10. Check areas are left without a cover crop, but other wise the treatments of all plots are the same. In addition to the basic fertilizer half of each plot re-' ceives 200 pounds of sodium nitrate per acre as side-dressing. No increase hi yield of seed cot ton was obtained from the use of 200 pounds of sodium nitrate to cotton following these cover crops, with exception of a small gain following Austrian peas. On the other hand, on the check area with no cover crop the soda increased the yield of cotton 174 pounds per acre. “Check areas without a cover crop and side-dressed with 200 pounds of sodium nitrate are not producing as much-cotton as the cover crop areas, without nitrate of soda.” We have just unloaded a supply of A.

NOTICE OF TAX SALE NOTICE OF SALE Long time ago they claimed the “last word” in automobiles, mean ing there was no more room for improvements. Well, autos have come a long way even in my young life. I can remember when autos didn’t have rear view mirrors and the only way you had to give a square, mean look at a back-seat driver was to turn your head plum around like an owl and stare at the lady which was very rude and ill-mannered. And too, we didn’t have self-starters. That is, the au tos didn’t have one. We started curselves first and then the auto; and sometimes we started to the hospital with a broken arm and a badly cracked religion. Nobody but a crank would get any real “kick” out of cranking one of those old magneto buggies, especially on cold mornings. After you had done ev erything to make it go and still it wouldn’t budge, then you would try putting it in gear and jacking up one hind leg, I .mean wheel, and then go around in front instead of behind and twist its tail and be ready to outrun the old ship if the motor happened to start. If this remedy didn’t get results then you might try removing all the spark plugs and pouring gasoline into the cylinders, put the plugs back, then go back—I mean to the front and rank some more. I have cranked md spun the flywheel round and -or.nd until I sweated—pardon me, I mean perspired, in zero weather ~nd when my tongue hung out of my mouth a yard long I’d just throw it back over my shoulder r’id crank right on, I would. Never mind what I said. There are some t u !ngs the editor of this paper won’t print. Well, those days are past and Efcne, and automobiles have had lu.s of improvements, the latest teing this “knee-action” we are b nring so much about. This “knee-action” -on autos may be all ri ,ht but it doesn’t work at all in the parlor. What I mean is that I called to see my sweety one night | and I was trying to explain and also demonstrate this “knee- action” sensation, with her sitting on my knee.
