that the Indies organized against suffrage

(under equal suffrage laws) of voting
whether they wish or not, and ot being
forced Into all kinds of political effort.
"willy nlliy. iso man in our glorious
country votes unless he wishes, and 'tis a
rare occasion where the office compels
the man to occupy It. The much-dreaded
lurv dutv m!cht even be met by wodern
methods. We lament that many of our
best men evade jury duties because of
whore good women could assist In such ,
matters, where press of business cares
prevent many men from doing so? Can
any one feel that our much-admired host
esses from Idaho were less respecieu
the Fair because they ace voting women,
nnd ontf at least on officeholder? In no
way degraded. I am sure, out rcapeswu
everywhere as womanly women. I would
ask every woman who feels opposed to
woman suffrage to listen to an address of
Miss Gall Laughlln, and see If her views
do not undergo a radical change. Intelli

What Sulphur Does
Tor the Human Body in Health and
Disease.
The mnnflnn of nulohur will recall to
manv of us the early daysxwnen our
mothers and grandmothers gave us our
rfnitv dose of sulphur and moiasses
vt,rv Snrlrtir and Fall.
It was the univorsal Spring and Fall
"blood purifier." tonic and cure-all, and
mind .you. this old-fashlonod remedy
wa not without merit.
The idea was good, but the remedy
wascrude and unpalatable, and a large
quantity had to be taken to get any
effect
Vowadavs we tret all the beneficial
offeata of sulnhur lit a palatable, eon
contraled form, so tnot a single gram
far mor effective than a tabie-
&noonful of the crude sulphur.
In recent years, rcsearcn ana experi
ment have provon that the best sulphur
for medicinal use Is that obtained from
Calcium (Calcium Sulphide) and sold in
drugstores under the name of btuarts
Calcium Wafers. They arc small choco
late-coated nellets and contain tho act
ive medicinal principle of sulphur in a
lchlv concentrated, effective form.
Few oeoolc aro aware oi tne vaiue
of this form of sulphur in restoring
and maintaining bedlly vigor and
health; sulphur acts directly on the
liver, and oxoretory organs and purifies
and enriches tne .blood oy rne prompt
elimination of waste material.
Our grandmothers knew this wncn
thev dosed us with sulphur and mo
lasses every Spring and Fall, but the
crudity and impurity of ordinary now
ers of sulphur were often worse man
the disease, and cannot oompare wun
ihe modern concentrated preparations
of sulnhur. of which Stuart's Calcium
Wafers Is undoubtedly the nest ana
most widely usod.
Thev are the natural antidote for
liver and Sidney troubles and cum con
stlpatlon and purify tne oiood in a way
that often surprises patient ana pnysi
rlsn alike.
Dr. R. M. Wllklns while experiment
ing with sulphur remedies soon found
that the. sulphur from Calcium was su
perior tp any other form. He says: "For
liver, kidney ",and blood troubles, espe
cially when resulting from constipation
or malaria. I have been surprised, at the
t-nciitK nbtained from Stuart's Calcium
"Wafers. In patients suffering from bolls
and pimples audeven deep-seated car
buncles, I have repeatedly seen tnem
dry up and disappear In four or five
days, leaving tho skin clear and
smooth. Although Stuart's Calcium
Wafers is a proprietary article, and
eold by druggists, and for that reason
tabooed by many physicians, yet I
know of nothing so safe and reliable
for constipation, liver' and kidney
troubles and especially .In all forms of
skin, diseases as this remedy.".
At any rate people who aro tired, of
pills, cathartics and so-called blood
"purifiers," will find In Stuart's Calcium
Wafers a-far safer, more palatable and
effective preparation.
