Hospital Census 68 Admitted 7 Births 2 Total 77 Discharged 1 Today's Census 78 5 doctors prove this plan breaks the laxative habit If you take laxatives regularly here's how you can stop! Because 5 New York doctors now have proved you may break the laxative habit.

And establish your natural powers of regularity. Eighty-three per cent of the cases tested did it. So can you. Stop taking whatever you now take. Instead: Every night for one week take 2 Carter's Pills.

Second week one each night. Third week one every other night. Then nothing! Every day: drink eight glasses of water; set a definite time for regularity. Five New York doctors proved this plan can break the laxative habit. How can a laxative break the laxative habit? Because Carter's Pills "unblock" the lower digestive tract and from then on let it make use of its own natural powers.

Further Carter's Pills contain no habit-forming drugs. Break the laxative habit with Carter's Pills and be regular naturally. When worry, overeating, overwork make you irregular temporarily take Carter's Pills temporarily. And never get the laxative habit. Get Carter's Pills at any drugstore for 33 today.

You'U be grateful the rest of your life. Later, when they showed promise of unusual talent, they had tne ex nerience of studying at the feet and at the piano of several highly acclaimed masters of pianoforte. Their early mastery of touch and tone, the dexterity and the love of their work, made it somewhat easier to go on into the realm of piano achievement such as but a small minority ever attain. In solo work there was little to choose between the brothers and in the duo numbers they reached the height of perfect timing, the blending of two musical souls and hearts, able to anticipate the whimsicalities, one of the other, such as cannot be taught instead must be felt. Topping their superb execution, the Telstchik brothers presented pleasing personalities and seemed to hang onto their every note as something to be cherished, held, not to be lost.

With it all they were gracious and pleasing and they early sensed the audience appreciation, with the result they gave a recital which their audience could not mistake as being anything else but the height of their ability and a rendition from really musical souls. To say they pleased is to use a prosaic figure of speech which does not begin to explain the charm, beauty and vitally-alive performance. The audience response was most deserving and the artists seemed to like to come back to play more, and to draw from the very depths the favorite, the intimate snatches of harmony, pathos and cherished gems of their repertoire. Canonsburg music lovers will long remember and with pleasure the names of the Teltschick broth-thers Alfred and Herbert who gave the community a really superb performance which will remain for eons of time.
