REGULARITY OF THE BOWELS

The First Line of Defence against Ill-Health.

Only about one man or woman in a hundred is perfectly healthy. The other 99 have some” digestive trouble, and perhaps more than 50 per cent of these could trace their trouble to that prevalent evil-constipation. Its a simple thing of itself, but like many simple things, it may grow and become complicated. Constipation is the root of nine-tenths of the sickness of man, and a large proportion of the sickness of women. Nature often requires a little assistance, and if this assistance is given at the first indication much distress and suffering may be averted. To maintain a healthy system the bowels should operate at least once every 24 hours. This is one of Nature's wise provisions which is too often ignored, and the result is untold suffering. Women and children are the greatest offenders, but why such should be the case is a problem to be solved. Dr. Morse's Indian Root Pills are a remedy which taken at the first indication, assist Nature to restore the system to health and strength, and avert the development of disease. Every ailment is the effort of Nature to get rid of some impurity in the system, and the object of medical treatment is to assist Nature in doing Dr. Morse's Indian Root Pills do this surely and thoroughly. To overcome constipation take one to four Pills regularly until the Bowels move daily, and are restored to healthy action.

EARLIER CABLES. (THROUGH REUTER'S AGKNUT.] GERMAN TRIBUTE TO BRITISH STRATEGIC SKILL

AMSTERDAM, September 28th. The Entente success in Macedonia and in Palestine has greatly alarmed the Frankfurter Zeing, which cannot re- frain from paying tribute to the enemy's strategic skill.

The journal says the Entente, especially the British, show themselves again sa It also masters of Colonial warfare. admits that the point of the break-through in Macedonia was very cleverly chosen.

The paper urges the Central Powers to tackle the problem of defence, as the enemy has caused us serious military damage."

SHIPYARD WORKERS' STRIKĖ

LONDON, September 28th.

A statement from a reliable source te |garding a strike of Clyde shipwrights and other shipyard trades, which has spread

to Barrow and the East Coast of Scotland. points out that the action at the men, who demand a minimum Wage of £ weekly, is disavowed by their Executives.

Moreover, it is a repudiation of the undertaking by the Shipyards' Trades" Unions that there be no stoppages of werk contained in the scheme to secure the utmost production framed by them and their employers last April.
