ANEW DISCOVERY Blythe SHAKERS

For more than a hundred years the
Mount Lebanon Shakers have studied
the cultivation of medicinal plants and
sought to extract from them their
healing essences. Their labor has not
been spent in vain. They have made a
discovery that will prove a blessing
to mankind. Tt consists of a cordial
that causes immediate relief in cases
of Indigestion. The importance of this
discovery will be apparent when we
realize that nearly nine-tenths of our
suffering are caused by dyspepsia or
Indigestion. Nearly every person you
meet has this digestive trouble in some
| of its varied forms-sick headache, dis
| tress after eating, pain and fulness in
| the chest after eating, palpitation of
| the heart, etc, are but symptoms of
| Indigestion. To relieve these suffer
| ings has been the study of the Shakers
and they have succeeded. The reason
| the Shaker Digestive Cordial has such
an immediate and salutary effect is
| that it causes the food eaten to be di-
| gested, for it is undigested food that
| causes the distress. The Cordial
causes the food to be digested before
| there is time for it to ferment and sour
on the stomach. When the food is so
| digested it gives strength and vigor to
the feeble body, makes one feel bright
and cheerful, and makes one gain in
| flesh.
The Digestive Cordial is so prompt
in it's action that the very first dose
will have a perceptibly favorable re-
suit. 1t gives Immediate relief.

FOR TRUCK GARDENING.
Suburban Railway Tracts Being Sold
by a V. T. & L. Company

W A. Coats. general agent of the
Arkansas Valley Town and Land COM
pany, returned this morning from a
business trip through the southeastern
portion of the state. where he has been
looking after company land sales.
MI Coats states that the prospects
for a large crop of both fruit and grain
i'm that part of the state are excellent,
and the farmers generally are in a
very hopeful condition. The land sales
of the company in this state during
the past month have been larger than
the sales of any of the preceding
months. The greater portion of the
land sold is i'm small suburban tracts
adjacent to the larger towns which are
to be used for truck gardening. Mr.
Coats believes that this Industry is
growing rapidly in the central and east
ern portions of Kansas.

NO METRIC SYSTEM.
Senator Sherman Says the Bill VIII
Not Pass This Congress

Washington. April 25.-A delegation
of scientific men headed by Prof T. c.
Mendenhau. ex-superintendent of the
coast and geodetic survey, was given a
hearing by a subcommittee of the sen
ate committee on finance on advocacy
of Senator Cannon's bin for the adop-
ton of the metric system by this
country.
They based their advocacy of the
change upon the theory that the sys-
tenn when once adopted would be far
more satisfactory than the present
system and said the longer the change
was postponed, the more difficult it
would be to make it.
Senator Sherman as chairman of
the ub-cOmmittee, without expressing
any opinion as to the merits of the bill
said 1t would probably be too late to
give either measure consideration dur
ing the present session.

CONCERNING THE CAR FAMINE
Just Now but Few of the Roads Are
Cripplcu.

Crippled
The scarcity OF cars among all roads in this
section OF the country, the story that has
gained rather extensive circulation, is re
garded as a myth, rather more harmful than
amusing, by the freight officials of most
of the Omaha lines. So far as can be
learned the Missouri Pacific is the only
local line that is seriously handicapped
though the Omaha could use more cars II
1t had them. The Union Pacific and the
Burlington officials say they are not short
on cars. and the Iowa lines are not at all
crippled by the lack Of equipment
Assistant General Freight Agent Phillippi
Of the Missouri Pacific, who has just returned
from a trip over the road, said in this
connection: "Yes, our line seems to be the
worst off about here. This fs because so
many OF our cars are down south. and II
takes long time to get them back. We have
sent them to Mexico and Texas, and they
are being used down there for transporting
cotton. Thursday we were short 7S3 cars
but / expect they will commence to come
back to us by the first of next week. The
bad feature OF the shortage OF cars at this
time is that 1t handicaps the farmers who
have sold corn and want to move II before
the advance in rates on November 2. At
points where we cannot handle the business,
rather than cause any hardship to the farm
ers, we are turning over the business to the
Burlington. which seems to be we'll sup
piled with cars"
