Dangerous Business
Our stomach and digestive systems
are lined with membrane which is
delicate, sensitive and easily injured.
It is dangerous business, then, to use
medicines containing harsh drugs,
salts or minerals, when we are con
stipated. In addition to the possibility
of injuring the lining? of our digestive
system, these medicines give only
temporary relief and may prove habit
forming. To relieve constipation, take
Herbine, the cathartic that is made
from herbs, and acts in the way na
ture intended. You can get Herbine at
Parker's Drug Store, Murphy, N. C.
MASTIFF MAKES
LION TURN TAIL
Survives Bloody Battle With
King of Beasts.
New York. ? The mastiff, probabh
the oldest of the British breeds of
dogs, lias remained unchanged in
form, size and colors for hundreds of
years. And always he has been known
for his courage.
"It is written that the Roman* |
found the mastiff in Britain and, not
ing its great strength, took it to Rome !
to light against other great and cap
live beasts. ** says Freeman Lloyd in j
llotue and Field.
"Soon after Britain was discovered,
the "pugnaces,' or fighting dogs of
Epirus, were pitted against those of
tlie British, and, according to Gratius. s
completely beaten.
"As to the bravery of the English
mastiff, one writer r**JRtes an instance
of a contest between three mastiffs
and a lion in the presence of James T.
This affair took place in the Tower of
London, which at that time had ltn
collection of wild beasts. "One of the
dogs, being put Into the den. was soon
disabled by the lion, which took him j
by the head and neck and dragged
him about. Another dog was then let ,
loose and was served In the same j
manner. But tl S third, being put in. '
immediately seized the lion by the lip j
and held him for a considerable time, '
until being badly torn by his oppo- 1
nent's claws, the dog was obliged to -
quit his hold.
"The lion, greatly exhausted, re
fused to renew the engagement and.
taking a leap over the dogs, tied into
the interior part of his den. Two of
the dogs soon died of their wounds.
The last survived and was taken care
of by the king's son, who said: 'He
that has fought with the king of the
beasts should never after fight an In :
ferior creature.' "
The mastiff has b^en bred by the
English for massiveness and power. :
Mr. Lloyd points out In his Home and i
Field article, and with those attributes
has come great courage.
