SUPERINTENDENT HIS FIRST BIG JOB

Warren and His Deputies Have Drifted Snow to Clear From Road—Some Bad Places

County Road Supt. Clias. N. Warren and his eleven deputies, had their first big job Monday since their appointment. The snow was badly drifted during the blizzard Sunday afternoon and night, and the superintendent and deputies have the job of removing the drifts from the roadway so the rural carriers and others can travel. 'This is the first snow of the season that has blockaded the roads, and some places it is said to be badly drifted. The rural route men have been very fortunate in this respect and under the new plan of road superintending it will probably not be so bad under any circumstances as in former winters when there were days that they could not cover even a part of their routes.

Guard Your Children Against Bowel Trouble

Many children at an early age become constipated, and frequently serious consequences result. Not being able to realize his own condition, a child's bowels should be constantly watched, and a gentle laxative given when necessary. Dr. Males' Laxative Tablets are tspecially well adapted to women and children. The Sisters of Christian Charity, 531 Charles St., Luzerne, Pa., who attend many cases of sickness say of them: "Some time Ago we began using Dr. Miles' Laxative Tablets and find that 'we like them very much. Their action Is excellen* and we are grateful for having been made acquainted with them. We have had good results In every case and the Sisters are very much pleased."

The form and flavor of any medicine is very important, no matter who is to take it. The taste' and appearance are especially important when children are concerned. All parents know how hard it is to give the average child "medicine," even though the taste is partially disguised. In using Dr. Miles' Laxative Tablets, however, this difficulty is overcome. The shape of the tablets, their appearance and candy-like taste at once appeal to any child, with the result that they are taken without objection.

The rich chocolate flavor and absence of, other taste, make Dr. Miles' Laxative Tablets the ideal remedy for children.

If the first box fails to benefit, the price is returned. Ask your druggist. A box of 25 doses costs only 25 cents. Never sold in bulk. MILK* MEDICAL CO., Klkhart, In*
