CHICAGO. June 12. Outfidf of ill? con
u. inn of the contests b fore the Na
tional commit ie the niont inipjrtant de
velopment of t'n? tiny whs tli issuance
liy th" "Allies" of a statement in which
. they declined their intention of "stick
ins to the finish" antl in which they as
serted that it was certain that "there will
be no nomination on the lirst ballot."
The attitude of the "allies" as ,ut
lined in this statement was generally
strengthened by the an ival during the
day of General Stewart U Woodford,
of New York, who is in charge of the
interest of Governor Hughes. One of
the first things encountered by Wood
ford on his arrival in Chicago wag the
strong sentiment developing to couple
the names of Taft and Hushes. Tr.ls,
however. General Woodford met with
the statement that the New Yoi k dele
gation would come here instructed to
support Mr. Hughes for the Presidency
and until the convention had made its
choice there would be no consideration
of Governor Hughes' name for any
place except at the head of the ticket.
No Time for Vlee-Presldency.
When shown the authoritative state
ment made at Albany that the Governor
"cannot and will not under any cir
cumstances accept a nomination for the
Vice-Presidency," General Woodford
said: '
"That Is exactly whaf I expected. I
have heen attending National conven
tions since 1Si0, and have never known
a wise selection for the Vice-Presidency
to be made until after the candidate for
President had been chosen."
Asked if Mr. Hughes' success In win
ning the contest over the racetrack bills
had strengthened his candidacy, General
Woodford said:
"It has proved that Hughes is a fighter
and that he never quits."
Sure to Carry New York.
Instead of continuing the discussion of
the Vice-Presidency, General Woodford
took up the availability of Mr. Hughes
for the Presidency and said:
"I know one thing, namely: If Hughes
is nominated for the Presidency, he will
be certain to carry New York. I do not
say nu i-ne else can carry New York.
, But I say with Hughes nominated New
York is certain and with same one else
nominated New York is doubtful."
When Taft's' strength was mentioned
General Woodford paid high tribute to
the Secretary of War, but said that Re
publican chances were greater with . Mr.
Hughes at the head of tile ticket.
WANTS XO SECOND PLACE
Vice-Presidency Without Attraction
for Hushes.
ALBANY. N. Y.. June 12. Copies of
the following telegram, signed by
Robert H. Fuller, secretary to Gov
ernor Hughes, replying to a telegram
received from a New York newspaper
regarding Governor Hughes' position
toward the nomination for the Vice
Presidency, were given out at the ex
ecutive chamber today:
"Governor Hughes directs me to ac
knowledge receipt of your telegram. He
recently stated his position in his letter
to General Woodford, which has been
published. While he appreciates the
distinction of the otTice, and the honor
which the nomination would confer,
the Governor directs me to say that he
cannot and will not under any circum
stances accept a nomination for the
Vice -Presidency."
The telegram was as follows:
"There is now a strong feeling In
Chicago following the anti-betting
victory, that you should announce
yourself as willing to accept the Vice
Presidential candidacy in case it is of
fered to you. Have you changed your
attitude on this point, as expressed by
you recently to the effect that you
should not accept second place on the
ticket?"
To all his friends who have called to
see him preparatory to making the trip
to Chicago. Mr. Hughes made his pos4
tion clear on this question. While he ap
preciates the importance and dignity of
the office, he has unvaryingly said that
he would not accept the Vice-Presidential
nomination, should it be offered him.
The Governor refused today to com
ment upon the statement of A. B.
Humphrey, manager of the Hughes head
quarters in Chicago, that in view of the
passage of the anti-race track gambling
bills, there was nothing now remaining
to make the Governor desire another term
In the executive chair.
COOLEY BOUNCES RUICK
Kenioves Idaho's District Attorney
at President's Heqtiest.
BOISE. Idaho. June 12. Special.)
Alvord W. Cooley. United States Attorney-General,
arrived here this evening,
and in answer to a request for an inter
view gave out the following written state
ment: "Acting tinder authority of the Presi
dent and Attorney-General, I have re
moved" N. M. Ruick from the office of
Tnlted States DisUUt Attorney. For
some time oust Mr. Kuick's attitude in
connection with certain departmental
matters of more than ordinary impor
tance has been utterly inconsistent with
the idea of proper loyalty to the interests
of the Government. .
"In addition, complaint has- been made
of his failure to pay debts. His only ex
cuse has been that the claim which forms
a basis of the complaint has been barred
by the slatute of limitations. While tha
department has consistently refused to
act as a collect Ion agency. It does not
feel that a man who interposes merely
tecflnical defense to Just claim is a fit
person to retain in the Government
service."
It is understood, though not from Coo
ley, there will be another removal from
a Federal office in this city soon.
DISGRACED BEFORE MOB
Krench Nuviil Officer Pays Penalty
for His Treason.
TOULON. June 12. A pitiable spectacle,
the degradation of Ensign Charles Ullmo,
formerly a naval officer, occurred at
Roche square today. In the presence of an
enormous crowd. Ensign Ullmo was ar
rested at Toulon charged with being a
spy. An examination of his effects showed
him to be in possession o- many valuable
documents. Last February he was found
guilty by a court-martial of attempting
to sell naval secrets to a foreign power
and sentenced to life imprisonment in a
fortress and to be degraded in rank.
Train excursions were run into Toulon
and thousands of people from the sur
rounding country came in to witness the
ceremony.
Lllmo. wearing his uniform and svord
was led into the rectangle where the
Commandant read the order that 'L'llmo
had betrayed his country and was not
worthy to wear its uniform. Two subal
terns then took off his sword and stripped
him of his chevrons r.nd buttons. One of
the subalterns broke the sword across his
knee and then threw the broken blade at
Ullmo's feet. In this plight, Ullmo was
compelled to march at the head of th9
sqiiiM of soldiers around the rectangle
amid the hoots and Jers of the crowd.
He walked with his hara head sunk upon
his breast and h's eyes staring straight in
front of him. Tears were streaming down
his face.
l'llmo will be deported to Devil's Island,

Notice Served on Tokio That Limit
Fixed Has Been Iteaelied Many
-Must Be Turned Back.
VANCOUVER. B. C. June 12. (Spe
cial.) The Canadian government today
notified the government of Japan that
the limit of immigrants allowed for one
year had been reached and that no more
Japanese laborers can be sent to Canada
before January 1 of next year. This is in
accordance with the understanding
reached between the Laurler administra
tion and Tokio last January, which pro
vided that not more than 400 each year
should be sent. Six hundred and eight
had come up to the end of May and
more are arriving by every boat. It
looks like a barefaced evasion of the ar
rangement on the part of Japan.
Japanese Consul Yada said tonight that
even the 400 had not yet arrived, when
the number of students and tourists was
taken into consideration. As a matter
of fact. Canadian officials assert, not
more than 5 per cent of the new arrivals
are exempt from the arrangement.
TURN TO THE SPIRITUAL
Mrs. Eddy Tells Why She Omitted
Executive Committee Meeting.
BOSTON. Mass.. June 12. Mrs. Mary
Eaker G. Eddy, head of the Christian
Science Church, tonight issued a state
ment in explanation of the omission this
year of the annual meeting of the execu
tive committee of the First Church of
Christ. Scientist, in Boston, usually held
on the Saturday before the June com
munion service, and which was to have
been held tomorrow. The statement is
inscribed "A Word to the Wise" and
reads:
My Beloved Brethren When I asked you
to dispense wit h the executive members
meeting, the purpose of my request was
sacred. It was to turn your Ferine of wor
ship from the material to the spiritual, the
personal to the Impersonal, the denomina
tional to the doctrinal; yea; from the hu
man to the divine.
Already you have advanced from the au
dible to the inaudible prayers; from the ma
terial to the spiritual communion; from
drugs to deity; and you have been richly
recompensed. Rejoice and be exceedingly
glad, for so doth the divine love redeem your
body from disease, your being from sensual
ity, your pouI from senpe, your life from
death. Of this abounding; and abiding
spiritual understanding the prophet Isaiah
said: "And I will bring the blind by a way
that they knew not ; I will lead them in
paths they have not known; I will make
darkness liRht before them, and crooked
things straight. These things will I do unto
them and not forsake them."

BELLIXGHAM. Wash.. June 12.
(Special.) The provincial government
of British Columbia will take Immedi
ate steps to deport 1000 Hindus who
are now without work and penniless in
Vancouver and the surrounding towns.
The Orientals are exceedingly unpopu
lar, are accounted poor workmen and
are unable to secure employment.
They will be proceeded against as pau
pers without visible means of support.
Legal proceedings will not be neces
sary in the case of 300 of the men, as
they have already applied to the pro
vincial government for transportation
back to Calcutta.
The Canadian Pacific Railroad Com
pany, -which bt ought the men to this
country, has agreed to carry them free

Then, noticing that everything that
he was saying was being transcribed
by a shorthand reporter, he said sud

With that Chairman New turned on
his heel and hurried- away to a wait

Coliseum Annex. Later he refused
either to affirm or deny that he had
been accoeted by Statter, saying that
if anything was said he would prefer
that it came fiom Mr. Statter.
Mr. Hitchcock arrived on the scene
shortly after Chairman New. The
greeting between the two was decid
edly chilly.
Takes Ills Life on Train.
WALLA WALLA. Wash., June 12.
(Special.) Boni Betholdi. a Greek la
borer, who was on his way to Walla
Walla from Puget Sound points, this
morning shot himself In the mouth with
a .32-callber revolver and is now in the
Walla Walla hospital in a precarious
condition. The deed was committed as
the Northern Pacific train was coming
into the station, making the second sui
cide on the road within a week, Louie
Schmidt having been the other.
Losfrs Toes Under Train.

ONE SHOT; ONE CUT
Italian Laborer Is Mortally
Wounded in Brawl.
ANOTHER STABBED IN FACE
Party of W'orkingmen Celebrate the
Birtliday of One of Their Xuni
ber He Objects to Their Going
Home, Pulls Gun and Fires.
One man was shot and mortally
wounded and another was stabbed in
the face last night between 10 and 11
o'clock at the house of Frank Rior
monti.'an Italian, situated on the Pat
ton road about a mile south of where
this road turns into Seventh and Grand
streets at the foot of the hill. The
affair was the result of a party given
by Riormonti's cousin. Tonl Pctarsso,
on his 23d birthday to some other
Italian laborers. In which all hands be
came intoxicated.
Jim Vengezo Desantps, aged 40. was
taken to tne St. Vincent's Hospital in
a dying condition as a result of a bul
let wound Just beneath the heart. The
surgeons said that they expected his
death before morning. Joe Desantes,
his 15-year-old son. and Luigi Martina,
19 years of, age, his nephew, were
locked up at the police station charged
with being drunk and disorderly, while
Ton! Petarsso, with a stab wound in
his chin, was held on a charge of felon
ious assault, which will be changed to
murder in case of the elder Desantes'
death.
None of the people mixed up in the
nffair Is able to talk intelligible Eng
lish so the accounts furnished the
police of the affair were somewhat
garbled. From what could be gath
ered it appears that Desantes and his
son had started home when the father
bethought himself of Luigi, who had
remained behind. The boy's parents
are In Italy and Desantes. pater, was
responsible for the boy. He went back
to the Riormonti house and catching
the youngster by the sleeve tried to
get him to accompany him to his home,
at 658 Sixth Street. The boy demurred
and Petarsso. the host stzn nlileeteri
n the ground that it was breaking
up his party. Desantes picked up a
little stick of wood and advanced ad
monishingly on the boy, wiio drew a
dagger. In a scuffle which . ensued
Petarsso was stabbed in the lace and
he in turn drew a revolver and fired.
The bullet almost pierced Desantes'
body entering below the heart and
stopping at the skin in his back.
As he did not bleed externally and had
been drinking heavily. ,t was not thought
he had been hit. He walked down the
road for 2C0 yards before he fell to the
ground. A little after midnight some one
living in the neighborhood who had heard
the shot, telephoned the police and the
patrol wagon, in charge of Sergeant Wen
dorf, was rushed to the scene. Desantes'
son and nephew were weeping hysteri
cally over his prostrate form and Pe
tarsso was found hiding under a bed in
Riormonti's house. ' lie admitted having
none tne snooting when Questioned at the
police station, but said tnat he had done
so only after he nad been stabbed and
thought his life was in danger.
TAFT'S VOTE WILL BE 603
(Continued From First Pane.)
only about 5000 negroes were entitled to
vote under the laws of Virginia and that
of these only 3000 or 4000 have property.
Major Bryan, on behalf of the anti-Taft
men, withdrew th contest, there being
no evidence and none of the delegates
having put in an appearance.
The First. Second, Third, Fourth,
Sixth and Kighth district contests were
then consolidated.
Admits Anti-Taft Case Weak.
Major Bryan, for the anti-Taft dele
gates, charged repeatedly that in Vir
ginia negro voters had been kept away
from the polls and out of the conven
tion. Committeeman Scott, of West Vir
ginia, who has largely sympathized
with the "alliee" during the sittings, of
the committee, asked Major Bryan if
he had any affidavits to support his
assertions.
Major Bryan replied that he under
stood that what Ire said was" accurate.
Senator Scott repeated his question
and'Major Bryan again failed to give a
direct answer. Mr. Scott then eaid:
"I want to know whether you have
any affidavits to support what you
have said?"
"Well, Senator." said Major Bryan, "I
must confess that I have not."
"Well. Major Bryan." said the Senator,
"I must say that you have presented
some very poor cases in this state, and
in other states."
"I have presented all that I had," said
Major Bryan.
Senator Heyburn, of Idaho, who is not
an enthusiastic Taft supporter, added
to Mr. Scott's comment by saying:
"I must say that in general the Taft
cases have been admirably presented,
while some pitiful spectacles have been
made by some of the gentlemen on the
other side."
Foraker Gets Two Delegates.
The contest in the Fifth Virginia Dis
trict resulted in the seating of an anti
Taft delegation, the first since the hear
ing of the contests began. Compromises
had been reached in two other eases, but
the result in this district was a defeat
for Taft. This district includes Danville
and, when the call was Issued for the
convention at that place, it read: "For
white Republicans." On this one point
the Taft delegation was overthrown. The
motion to seat the Wilson-Russell dele
gates, who are for Senator Foraker, was
carried by a vote of 19 to 16.
The committee decided in favor of the
Taft delegates from the First. Second.
Third, Fourth. Sixth, Seventh and Eighth
districts. A motion to divide the seats
between the opposing parties in the
First, Second and Third districts was
lost.
The contest in Arizona was between
two Taft men. Both delegations were
headed by R. E Sloan, but L. W. Powell
and Hoval Smith were anxious to be the
second delegates and both were seated.
Henry B. McCoy, the member of the
committee from the Philippine Islands,
appeared in the committee-room today
for the first time since the hearing of
contents was commenced, and occupied
his seat. Senator Lodge, of Massachu
setts, who had up to today used the
proxy of Mr. McCoy, received the proxy
of North Dakota, held by Charles G.
Phelps, and continued as a member ?T
the committee, Mr. Phelps retiring. It
was against the latter gentleman that
the protest was made at the first meet
ing of the committee in common with
those directed against A. F. Statter and
Frank H. Hitchcock, on the ground that
all three were employes of the Taft cam
paign manageniKi.
Delegate Pouring In.
The active work of the convention pre
liminaries will not be under full head
way before tomorrow night or some time
on Sunday. Although delegates were
constantly arriving throughout the day,
no state is as yet represented by its full
strength. New Tork, Massachusetts and
Maine are expected to be here by noon,
and Missouri will arrive, some time dur
ing the latter part of, the day. On Sun
day the California delegation will arrive,
and numerous other states from the
West will have their complete quota on
hand.
The contest from Alaska resulted in a
defeat for the delegation emanating from
the faction -which heretofore has been
recognized as "regular." There were
three sets of delegates, all of them for
Taft. They were chosen before it had
been announced that the territory should
have only two delegates in the conven
tion. The contest for recognition was
really a fight for control of the organiza
tion in tlie territory.
Senator Charles W. Fulton, holding the
California proxy, moved that all three
delegates be seated, with one-third of a
vote for each delegate. Arthur F. Stat
ter. holding the proxy for Alaska, moved
as a substitute that the faction headed
by John G. Held, the present committee
man from Alaska, "be seated. This was
lost by a vote of 17 to 27. Chairman New
then moved that the Hoggatt delegates,
L. P. Shackleford. of Juneau, and George
Shea, of Nome, be seated. Mr. Fulton
withdrew his motion and the Hoggatt
delegates were seated. The result of this
contest terminated for the time a sharp
fight which has been waged between
Hoggatt and Held for the control of the
territory.
In pressing his motion Mr. New de
clared that he was opposed to dividing
the delegations in territories which had
elected more than their legal representa
tion, because of the precedent which
might be established.
The seating of Shea and Shacklcfori
settled the selection of the Alaskan mem
ber for the National committee from
Alaska. There are only two votes to be
cast and Mr. Shea announced that he
would vote for his colleague as National
committeeman.
With the disposal of the New Mexico
case the work of the full committee in
making the temporary roll of the con
vention was concluded.
WANT KIIKK-FOR-ALIi FIGHT
Many Favor Open Contest for Sec
ond Place.
CHICAGO, June 12. Speculation was
busy today with the Vice-Presidential
question. No one was able to arrive
at a definite conclusion or to form a
confident idea as to the outcome.
The only Vice-Presidential candidate as
yet on the ground is John Hays Ham
mond, who admitted that he was not
"exactly in the lead," but added that
he was satisfied with the existing con
ditions and prospects.
Senator Hopkins, of Illinois, who will
be chairman of the committee on reso
lutions, arrived during the day with a
boom for Fairbanks.
"I am for Fairbanks, if he will accept
said he. "He has made one of the best
Vice-Presidents the country has ever had
and he has earned a renomination."
There is doubt whether the Vice-Presi
dent will permit the use of his name, but
it is strongly asserted that, if he is nomi
nated, he Will not. decline. There were a
number of arrivals from Indiana during
the day. all of whom expressed the
ODlnion that the addition of Vice-Presl
dent's name to 'the ticket wuld add to
its strength in that state. -
The suggestion was freely made that,
in the event of the selection of Secretary
Taft for first place, the naming of the
second man would be left to the "allies.
and it also was generally believed that.
all other things being equal, the choice
should fall uuon a man from the East.
Another element believes xhat it will
be of great benefit to the party at large
if the Vice-Presidential nomination Is
made the prize of a free fight on the
floor of the convention. It has been long
since a contest of that description has
been witnessed in a Republican conven
tion and the advocates of this method of
selection believe that it would tend
greatly to heal some existing differences.
LIFT DUTY OS FOREST WEALTH
Publishers Propose Plank on Con
servation of Resources.
, NEW YORK, June 12. The American
Newspaper Publishers' Association has
submitted the following plank to the Re
publican platform for consideration:
The earnest consideration of the conserva
tion of the Nation's resources, set forth in
President Roosevelt's message at the recent
assembly of State Governors at the National
Capital, having: directed general attention to
the startling denudation of our foret lands
and the consequent Imminent danger of a
timber famine; therefore, be It
Resolved, That the Republican party In
convention assembled, pledges itself to the
removal of duties upon all forest products,
including lumber, both rough and dressed,
and upon pulp wood,- wood pulp and -print
paper, to the end that our rapidly depleting
forests may be conserved, the water supply
of our great rivers regulated and controlled,
the vast wajne of soil stopped and finally
that the great consuming public may reap the
advantage of the cheaper forest products of
other countries.
CONTINUE FIGHT TO FINISH
Allies Insist Nomination Will Not Be
Made on First Ballot.
CHICAGO, June 12. The following
"stand pat" statement was given out to
day at the headquarters of the "allies:"
"A conference was held this morning
between representatives of all the candi
dates for the Presidency except Taft. It
was unanimously decided to continue the
fight all along the line until the conven
tion shall have made a nomination.
"From reports received from delegates
who are on the ground as well as from
those who are on their way from all
parts of the country, we are convinced
that no nomination will be made on the
first ballot."
REJECT RADICAL PLANKS
(Continued From First Page.)
elected on a radical platform the prom
ises made by that platform possibly
would be fulfilled by a Republican
Congress.
There Is a growing army of reform
ers who .are anxious to have the Re
publican party adopt their pet ideas.
The local option people are here, like
wise the Prohibitionists as well as
those who want the manufacture of al
coholic liquors to be used as a beverage
to be stopped altogether and those who
insist on a stringent original package
law. LaAor representatives are here
looking after an anti-injunction plank
and other matters considered of vital
importance to their organizations.
Even the Federation of Women's Clubs
has sent a delegation with a suffrage
plank, which it hopes to have adopted.
All of these elements are making their
campaigns with prospective members of
the resolutions committee and their work
may have some future influence. Never
theless the work of framing up the plat
form will not begin until the convention
appoints this committee and the commit
tee has had opportunity to count noses
and ascertain whether the majority be
radical or conservative.

THAW HELD IfJ JAIL
Will Not Be Sent to Mattea
wan Pending His, Appeal.
FAVORED BY THE COURT
Justice Says He Has No Power to
Change Order of CoinnuitiHeiit,
but Expresses Belief That
Request Is Resaonalile.
NEW YORK. June 12. Harry K- Thaw
will remain in the Poughkeejvie jail
pending an application of his counsel to
Justice Dowling. of the Supreme Court,
for a change of the order committing him
to the State Hospital for the InsHiie at
Matteawan. This decision was rendered
by Justice Morchauser, of Poughkeepsie,
after hearing arguments of counsel in
this city today on a motion to transfer
the prisoner to any siate asylum other
than an asylum for insane convicts.
Justice Morchauser expressed the
opinion that it might be better for Thaw
to be incarcerated in some other asylum
than the one at Matteawan as it was
evident that strained relations existed be
tween the head of the Matteawan insti
tution and Thaw.
Colonel Franklin Bartlett and James
M. Graham, of Newburgh, appeared for
Thaw. Colonel Bartlett contended that
Thaw could be legally transferred to any
other state hospital for the Insane and
in the argument for the transfer coun
sel asserted that Thaw would personally
rather be in the Tombs or Poughkeepsie
prison than in Matteawan. District At
torney Jerome said he personally had no
objection to the transfer of Thaw to some
other hospital if lie were convinced that
it was for Thaw's good and that there
Was no danger of his escape.
Justice Morchauser stated that he could
not go back, of Justice Dowling's order
sending Thaw to Matteawan, but in view
of the statements that Thaw might not
recover there because of the feeling he
has toward the head of the institution he
would stay the execution of the order
recommitting him until such time as
Thaw's counsel could ask Justice Dowling
for a change of the original order.
THAW SANE, SAYS HIS WIFE
Pays Visit to Husband in Dutchess
County Jail.
POUGHKEEPSIE. N. Y.. June 12. The
first meeting between Harry K. Thaw
and his wife Evelyn since his attempt to
secure his release from Matteawan Asy
lum, took place today In Thaw's quarters
in the Dutchess County Jail. The visit
was evidently prearranged, for Thaw was
waiting to greet his wife when her name
was announced. The meeting between
them was private. Mrs. Thaw expected
to take luncheon with her husband and
pass the day with him.
Mrs. Thaw said she was dissatisfied
with the turn matters have taken and
said it was not her fault that she was
not called as a witness in the habeas cor
pus case for her husband. Matteawan,
she said, is the last place on earth to
which Thaw should be sent. Mrs. Thaw
declared that her husband was sane.
"I have known him for seven years,"
she said, "and ought to know."
NO BASIS F0R CHARGES
E. E. Duncanson Denies Allegations
of Cruelty to Minors.
SAN BERNARDINO. Cal.. June 12. E.
E. Duncanson, who is awaiting trial here
on a charge of cruelty to two children
confided to his care and whose ranch
near Chino, is being searched by officers,
who have requested that Duncanson be
held until their theories were established
or dlsproven, today made a denial of all
the charges against him and declares
that he is being persecuted because of a
dispute over his ranch which he claims
to have acquired by settlement 33 years
ago.
Duncanson claims to have graduated
from Ann Arbor Medical College in 1S77.
So far as can be ascertained he has never
been in trouble before. He affirms that
he adopted the two orphans he is alleged
to have treated cruelly as company for
his own 10-year-old daughter and denies
ever having mistreated them and forced
them to work.

"FORCE" is made of the best white wheat, steam-cooked,
roll-id into- thin flakes, combined with the purest barley-malt
and baked. Always "crisp" it before serving it by pouring into
a pan and warming it in oven. Then serve in large dish with
cream, piling the flakes in one side of the dish and pouring
the cream in the other side, dipping the flakes eaten.
Your grocer sells it.
No other Flaked Food is "just as good."

Any Physic 'That Brings Pain
Griping and pain will never oc or un
less, there is irritation.
Salts and harsh pills bring theirs "esults
by irritation by causing the bowel
fluids to flow.
So pepper in the eyes or nostril will
cause fluids to flow. But is it wise
to treat a delicate membrane thy is?
Do so for a time and the membra ne
will harden. That is how Natn re
wards oS soch attacks. The y u
need larger doses.
Eventually the calloused bowels fail it '
their functions entirely. Then yoa
have chronic constipation.
No wise person will ever abuse the
bowels in that way. They will use v
i-ascarets.
Cascarets never cause pain. That
proves that their action is natural.
Yet they are just as effective as harsh
physic.
