It gives the right kind of help. If the bowels aren't moving regularly and thoroughly, don't give any medicine that drains the system dry.

"The cities produce the revenue. do the policing and need the money," Mayor Dore said In a vigorous attack on what he termed "grasping state governments which are bankrupting cities all over the cotintry. He characterized the Canadian Uq dor system as a failure and predicted. that, no matter what regulations are Imposed In this state, hard liquor will be sold by the drink, not by the bottle. v Seattle had so many bootleggers," ,he declared, "that they had to wear badges to keep from selling to each other. But at the very worst in Seattle, there were not as many boot leggers as in Vancouver and Victoria after the liquor stores closed." SEEK CLEMENCY SALEM, Ore., Nov. 10.
