Headaches, biliousness; nervousness and other tormenting and serious ilia are common when the bowels fail to act daily as nature intended.

All this may be avoided, if you will accept our advice. taste Just like candy. They are soothing and easy in action. They do not cauce griping, nausea, purging or excessive looseness. They tend to tone and strengthen intestinal nerves and muscles.

They promptly relieve constipation, and help to permanently overcome it. Rexall Orderlies promote better spirits and better health. In all of these things they are vastly superior to old-fashioned, harsh salts and other purgatives, which are not only unpleasant to take but which usually leave the bowels in worse condition, than before. We particularly recommend Rexall Orderlies for childrenj aged and delicate persons. Rexall Orderlies come in vest-pocket tin boxes.

We honestly believe we have the best bowel remedy ever made the most plcasant-to-take, most permanently beneficial laxative for relief from the miseries aDd dangers arising from constipation. We wouldn't say this if we didn't believe it to be true. We wouldn't risk our reputation by making such statements did we not feel sure you would find them true. Our faith is built both on the knowledge of what Rexall Overlies are made of and on observation of very many severe cases in which they have proven their merit.

Try them at Our Risk If they do not abundantly prove their merit with you also if you are not entirely satisfied with them we will refund your money and we will do that on your mere say-so. We don't ask you to risk a penny. Isn't that fair? Just let the bowels fail in properly doing their work just let their action be delayed end incomplete and the entire system and every other organ suffers.

Strickland. Mr. Butts, with his sister, went to visit an uncle near Halifax about five weeks ago. Soon after their arrival he was taken desperately ill and Dr. H.

B. Furgerson, of Halifax, was summoned. He pronounced it acute appendicitis and Mr. Butts was hastened to a hospital in Richmond, accompanied by his father, Mr. J.

W. Butts, who had been notified of his son's condition, and Dr. Furgerson. After consultation with the hospital physicians it was decided that Mr. Butts' condition would not admit of an operation, and other treatment was given him.

But he gradually grew worse until the end. Mr. Butts was the baby boy of Mr. and Mrs. J.

W. Butts, who live a few miles from Scotland Neck. He was born April 23, 1884, and was therefore nearly 29 years of age. He was dutiful to his parents, and his devotion to them and his brother and sister has received many highly congratulatory remarks. The heart of the entire community goes out in tenderest sympathy to the grief-stricken father and mother and brother and sister in this sad hour of their bereavement, and they are pointed to Him who doeth all things will for comfort and consulation.
