Most Old People Are Constipated RAPHAEL’S DEPARTMEN “THE ALWAYS BUSY STORE” The- wear of years impairs the action of the bowels. With ad- vancing age people are disposed to restricted activity and exercise, which is responsible for the con- stipated condition of most old folks, The digestive organs are more sensitive to the demands made upon them and rebel more quickly. A mild, effective remedy for con- stipation, and one that is espe- cially suited to the needs of elder- ly people, women and children, is the combination of simple laxative herbs with pepsin that is sold in drug stores under the name of Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin. A free trial bottle can be obtained by writing to Dr. W, B, Caldwell, 452 Washington St., Monticello, Ills. WORKS DEPT. FUNDS Each Branch Shows Money Stil m at End of Fiseal Year.

Berlin, via London, April 9, 10:20 a. m,—The Olympic games of 1916 have not yet been transferred from Germany and the international com- mittee has not the power to direct such action, according to a statement made by Count Von Francken.Siers- torpff, vice chairman of the German Olympic committee. Whether or not the games will be held depends upon the course of the war, the count said; but if they are held it will be in Berlin. The international - commit- tee is still at work, and the German vice chairman is in regular commu- nication with Baron Plerre de Cou- bertin, president of the international committee, who is now in Lausanne. ““All newspaper reports that the in- ternational committee has given the games to some other country—Amer- ica was mentioned—are utter inven- tions,” said the count, MAN SUBMARINES, Gathcred Behind Cliffs on Consts of Norway, Copenhagen, April 9, via London, 8:22 a, m~—A group of Norwegian airmen who have been scouring the coasts of Norway investigating ru. mors that a German submarine base was located in some sheltcred spot of theese neutral waters found sev-| eral German submarines gathered be- hind the cliffs at Bergen Bay.

BIG IMPROVEMENT IN BUSINESS CONDITIONS : Predicted by Treasury Officials—Opti- mism Based on Report of Eighty National Bank Examiners. Washington, April 9.—Treasury of- .ficials were predicting today contin- ued improvement in business condi- tions throughout the country. Their optimism was based on reparts from eighty national bank examiners which the department has made public in a statement declaring the recent past has been marked by a steady return to conditions existing before the Eu. ropean war upset American commer- cial relations both domestic and for- eign. Revival of business activity in vir- tually every line was found. There was pronounced hopefulness, the re- port said, in agricultural, commer- cial and manufacturing cireles. Business in the south, the depart- ment announced, with cotton active at | advancing prices is showing a pro- nounced improvement. Crop pros- pects in the south were declared ex. cellent. In the western and Pacific states a general improvement was noted. The lumber industry was saild to be recovering and mining was resuming on a larger scale, Good crops were predicted. Some depression still is felt in New England, the middle Atlantic states and portlons of the central west, it was said. Although crop conditions were declared satisfactory, manufac- turing, except for foreign trade, was sald to be lagging. Maine, however, was said to be the only state in which there was any real depression. There was an increased demand it was sald, for rallroad cars and steel rails and for structural iron. R — LADIES!

Whether a dog's faithfulness to his master has a money value was the question yesterday _ before supreme court Justice Erlanger and a jury, when the case of Lorenzo Provezano, a shoemaker, of 1096 Clay avenue, the Bronx, against the city of New York, was called for trial. Provezano wanted $2,000 from the city because his bulldog was killed by the board of health for biting a boy. Provezano told the jury that he kept a candy store in addition to his shoe shop, and that when he had to go to the shoe shop, near by, the dog stood guard over the candy shop and kept out all presons. “He was just a trustworthy aid the master, and only a cur. Mf brought him to me when he was a month old, and 1 nursed him on a bot- tle. He never growled, and always did what he was told.” The plaintiff said that the watche nephew bite for which his dog was killed was only a | he was romp- scrateh inflicted while ing with threec boyves. “How much was he Assistant Corporation worth?" asked Counsel Chil- | vers. “He was just as good as replied Provezano.
