Fair minded people always admit 1t

1t has done them good they want it to
help others, too. Thousands bear
witness to the wonderful curative
qualities of Kodol Dyspepsia Cure. 1t
Is the only preparation which pos
itively and completely digests any
good food you may eat. No one dis
putes the fact that some other digest
ants partially accomplish this result.
Pepsin, for instance, is found in the
healthy stomach. When it is lacking,
the patient takes pepsin and it helps
him. But pepsin digests only album
inous foods, like meat and eggs. May
be there's plenty Of pepsin and a lack
Of the other digestants. Then 1t
does no good. That the trouble with
the other preparations. They don't
contain all Che digestants. Kodol
Dyspepsia Cure contains them all. 1t
digests any good food you want. You
don't have to diet. The feeling of
fitness after eating is Immediately
relieved by Kodol Dyspepsia Cure.

SIGNS OF DANGER
Public Takes Chances in

Well in the first place. you are not

the other ten persons who are coming
just behind you. This according to Desl,
Sergeant Chalmers. of No. police pre-
cinct.
Your disposition to do this has no
pathological significance; it is by no
means morbid. This according to a
well-known neurologist and alienist.
But if. in doing so. you chance to get
blown into kingdom come, or have pile
driver fail on you. or step into an ex-
cavation mile deep. to be picked up in
fragments, you are congenital fool.
This according to the post-mortem find
ing OF general public. which will have
been good deal luckier han you were.
The whole proposition is one which
turns upon the fact OF your escaping the
threatened danger. Look. and the
world locks with you; die. and you die
alone.,' For everywhere in Washington
it is demonstrated over and over again
that the great mass of citizens read
danger signs only that they may get
close enough to see just what the danger
is.
Sergeant Chalmers. who keeps the ac-

exceedingly pessimis;ic in his judgment

seid. They may clear some contractor
or railroad company from liability un-
der the law. but that is all. Nine out
OF ten persons killed or crippled in
Washington suffer simply because they
have paid TO heed to danger signs or
signals.
Did you ever see anybody stop at
railroad crossing when the gates were
down. Maybe one person in twenty-five
will DO 1t. but when he does the train
usually is just in front OF him. Twenty
four out of the twenty-five will crawl
under the cross bar and get into the
network Of tracks.
often the driver of a wagon will whip
lED and cut under the gates just as they
come down on one side. and before he
can cross the tracks he is penned in.
1T is all based on the vanity of a per-
son. Everybody who lodges into dan
ger in this way knows that others be-
fore him have been killed at 1t. but he
says to himself that he is smarter and
quicker than they were.
