Pain Can Be Avoided by a Little Care. The value of proper exercise as a means to health has become generally well known. There are various ways of exercising various muscles and parts of the body. Of the outer muscles and parts which may be reached by the hand or mechanical exercisers the ‘method ‘is simple. As to the inner or- | ganism, it is more difficult. The inner organisin being a sort of automatic ma- chine; the principal thing necessary to its proper performance, and exercise of its parts is to keep it clean and well oiled, so that it doesn’t clog and run irregularly. e liver is one of the most im- portant parts of the human machine. When it stops the machine stops. If it works badly the whole machine works badly—and you, if it’s your machine— éuffer thereby. Now, if the liver is kept» properly at work so it can’t os the machine, so far as it is concern works all right and you do not suffer. Yon can keep your liver going in a very simple way and avoid al] the ills due to that organ getting clogged, such as constipation, biliousness, sick head- ache, jaundice, that tired feeling, giddi- ness, sour stomach, splotches known as liver spots, rising bile and all other disorders arising from a disordered liver, by taking Lane’s Pills and keep- ing your liver exercised to doing its work right. Lane’s Pills act directly on the liver, they never gripe, they are gentle, mild; and safe for the most delicate women and children, one pill is a dose, they never leave any after effects and there are twenty-five doses in each bottle, sold by druggists at 25 cents.

SHIPPER MUST PUT NAME OF CONSIGNEE ON FREIGHT Code Signs and Symbols, Fruitful Source of Confusion, Will Be Done Away. After June 1 every package of freight offered to a railroad company in less than carload lots must be marked with the name of the consignee in full, and with the name of the station and state to which it is consigned. The rule is designed to correct a sys- tem which, the railroad managers assert, has been a constant source of loss te the railroad companies. A New York Cautrai accountant says that road alone has lost $1,500,000 on account of faulty markings on goods. This new system will do away with the long-time habit of consignors of marking goods with code signs or sym- bols, rather than the name and address df consignee. This was done primarily to prevent competitors from learning the names of shippers’ customers. This system has caused the railroads a great deal of trouble and loss, on ac- count of the difficulty in sorting out the total shipment of goods under one sym- bol. When a freight car was filled with a number of shipments of many pack- ages each, all marked with different and confusing symbols, many packages were necessarily carriéd Past their destina- tion or lost.

It is stated that the Pennsylvania lines’ east of Pittsburg paid out last year $342, - 620 for goods lost in transit, and ac- countants traced $176,260 of this amount to goods improperly marked. As its meeting held in Memphis March 8-7, the Southern Classification Commit- tee adopted the rule that every package, piece or bundle of merchandise of less than carload freight must be plainly marked with brush, stencil, pasted label or tag, showing the name of consignee, station and state.

ased From the New York " tenn a the Post-Dispatch, NEW YORK, May 2.—‘‘Twelve dead‘ Chinks in-a dry goods chest; heigh ho, and a bottle of rum!”’ This is the song of two deputy immi- ation inspectors who have spent a weak hentine for the bodies of a dozen Chinese, supposed to have been shipped here from across the Mexican border in freight boxes, to have died on the way, and to have ‘“‘gone to Heaven,” accord- ing to the optimistic person to whom they were consigned. The inspectors are used to almost all the Mongolian tricks for getting into the United States. They know. that plenty of Chinamen would be willing to be dissected and put together again, or melted and poured back into shape, if it would get them across the border. Hence they started on a _ vigorous search when they got this tip by wire from El Paso, Texas.: “Twelve Chinese smuggled from Mexico, shipped to New York in nailed- up boxes. Telegram received from New York May 18 reads: “Twelve boxes received here all right, but all qui hin (gone to heaven). QUON DOU YOUEN.’” Hunt for Quon, Without a doubt that the story was true the inspectors started out to look for Quon Dou Youen. Nobody in the New York Chinatown would admit having heard of him. Then the inspectors began a canvass of all the freight depots in New York, Jersey City, Hoboken, Weehawken and Spuyten Duyvil. None of the superintendents and clerks could re- member any boxes consigned to Chi- nese, or which could have contained bodies of late Celestials, Then the inspectors notified Commis- sioner Sargent at Washington, he wired . to El Paso advising the inspectors there to cook the pills harder before smoking them, and went back to head to take a rest. Mua Li Holds Tongue. The El Paso office relied that Mun Li, the king of El Pasojs Chinatown, was suspected of knowing something about the matter, but had not seen fit to make a statement. They saic Mun Li was suspected of engaging in an extensive human importation trade, with the aid of allies in Ciudad Juarez, on the other side of the Rio Grande, and in the City of Mexico. Commissioner Sargent has sent word from Washington that he thinks the story “improbable.” He says the faat- est freight could not land the boxes in Néw York in a week, the time they were supposed to have come in. “If men were shipped in that way, it is no wonder they were dead,” he says. ‘There is no telling what China- men will do to get into this country,” and ho recalled the case of the frozen Chinese found in a refrigerator car at Detroit a year or so ago, who had taken that way to enter the United States from Canada,

How to Get Well for 50 cents This is the trouble with nine people in ten who don’t feel well: The liver is torpid because of abuse. Because of wrong food and too little exercise,’ i. The bowels have grown inactive. The waste of the system loads the blood with impurities. | 7 Then one takes harsh physic—salts and pilis—in trying to correct the wrong. Thus the stomach and bowels become inflamed. The whole digestive sys- tem is upset. All these resuits end quickly by the use of Cascarets, One candy tablet, once or twice a day,’ In a month, or less, one knows what it is to be well. Cascarets aid digestion. . Harsh ee destroys it. — in a Month Cascarets gently stimulate the liver. Cathartics whip it to action. Cascarets heal the bowels. Pills, salts and castor oii merely irritate, If you tramped the woods for a month, ate coarse food, fruit and green vege- tables, the result would be the same asa month with Cascarets. But most people can’t do that. For them, Cascarets bring the same re- sults, just as naturally, just as
