Did you ever stop to think what indi-
gestion really means? 1t means simply
that your stomach is tired. If our legs
are tired, we ride. The horse and the
steam engine do the work. Why not
give your stomach a ride; that is, let
something else do its work. Foods can
be digested outside of the body. ALI
plants contain digestive principles which
will do this. The Shaker Digestive Cor
dial contains digestive principles and is a
preparation designed to rest the stomach.
The Shakers themselves have such I'M
bounded confidence IN 1t that they have
placed 10 cent sample bottles on the

quantity proves beneficial in vast major

Between-seasons business puts

the stocks we get the normal share
of "bargains" goods you are the
richer for buying and we are better
off for having sold. But, having
this great outlet for worthy mer-
chandise, we are continually be-
sieged by other holders of goods to
turn their stocks to money. Thus
come many other bargains. The
word is hackneyed; is often mis-
used, but we dignity it by applying
the term only to worthy merchan-
disc much under normal value.

salaries of some of the state officials whom
he thinks are getting too much for their
services. Mr.. Wildes introduced similar

AS THE appointment of Amos Gibbs to
the State Board of Assessors had been
conceded for several days, the announce
ment of the fact did not occasion any sur
prise and the comment on the action is
highly favorable, it being conceded
throughout this county at least that no
better selection could have been made.
Mr.. Gibbs knowledge of the value Of

ness and impartiality on all questions,
render him particularly we'll fitted for the
position which has been given him.
