Your Money Back if You Are
Not Satisfied With the
Medicine We Recom-
mend.
We are so positive that our
remedy will permanently relieve
constipation, no matter how
chronic it may be, that we offer
to furnish the medicine at our
expense should it fail to produce
satisfactory results. ^
It is worse than useless to at-
tempt to cure constipation with
cathartic drugs. Laxatives or
cathartics do much harm. They
cause a reaction, irritate, and
weaken the bowels and tend to
makej:onstipation more chronic.
Besides their use becomes a habit
that is dangerous.
Constipation is' caused by a
weakness of the. nerves and
muscles of the large intestine or
descending cdlon. To expect
permanent relief you must there-
fore tone up and strengthen
these organs and restore them to
healthier activity.
We want you to try Rexall
Orderlies on our recommendation.
They are exceedingly pleasant to
take, being eaten like candy, and
are ideal for children, delicate
persons, and old folks, as well as
for the robust. They act direct-
ly on the nerves and muscles pf
the bowels. They apparently
have a neutral action on other
associate organs or glands. They
do not purge, cause excessive
looseness, nor create any incon-
venience whatever. They may
be taken at any time, day or
night. They will positively re-
lieve chronic or habitual consti-
pation, if not of surgical variety,
and the myriads of associate or
dependent chronic ailments, if
taken with regularity for a
reasonable length of time. 12
tablets, 10 cents; 36 tablets, 25
cents; 80 tablets, 50 cents Sold

Stuart-Thompson Nuptials.
Mr. Ross Stewart and Miss
Eva Thompson were married
Monday afternoon at 2:30 at the
home of Mr. and Mrs. R. D.
Rhodes, Rev. Webb solemnizing
the rites. Quite a number of
friends were present, and several
handsotfie presents were received
from admirers of the happy
couple, the B. of L. F. & E., of
which, order Mr. Stuart is a
member, presenting a valuable
silver service.
At the conclusion of the
ceremony refreshments of choco-
late arid wafers were served to
the assemblage.
There is an unusual degree of
romance in this marriage and
courtship. Mr. Stuart and Miss
Thompson have been engaged
for a long time, but like prudent
people postponed marriage until
Mr. Stuart should be better
able financially to assume the
duties of husbandhood. How-
ever, several months since Mr.
Stuart happened to the misfor-
tune of having a foot mashed'off
in a railway accident, rendering
him a cripple. When this acci-
dent befell him he gallantly of-
fered»to .release the young lady
from her promise of marriage,
but like a true and loyal soul,
^he refused to accept her free-
dom, and Sunday she came to
Teague from Eldorado Springs,
Mo., and the marriage followed
Monday as stated.
