STRENGTHEN THE STOMACH
Or. Williams Pink Pills Really Cure
Indigestion lnstead OF Merely
Relieving Symptoms.

There are plenty of remedies by which
yoa can relieve for tho time heartburn,
pain aud gas on the stomach and can
smother nervous sensations and induce
artificial sleep. You can humor your
stomach by giving it predigeSted food.
But when you take your mex meal all
your trouble begins afrcsh.
There Is only one sensible thing TO DO.
Strengthen the stomach and do away
with the necessity for drugs and arti-
fetal foods. Tho best remedy ever found
for this purpose Is the II that was used
by Z. l.. Strong, of Capleyille, Shelby
county. Tenn.
"For years" no states, 81 suffered
greatly from indigestion. / tried many
different remedies and some Of them
would relieve ME FOR n time, but the
trouble always camo back. About six
months ago / had an unusually severe

difficulty this time.
"Onc day / read in q Memphis paper

Misch,evous Legislation Threatened.

Legislation IL Threatened In many
States during this coming winter for
the suppression OF the so-called pat
cnt' medicines. The success OF such
legislation would mean the abolition OF
the home medicine chest and would
force persons, no matter how remote
their homes from a physician, TO call
In n doctor for every minor allmcnt.
The legislation rs proposed would
mean frequent long delays awaiting
the arrival OF a physician. when a sim
pie remedy administered by n member
OF the household would accomplish the
result desired. or ut least give tempo
rary relief.

PhonoposfaIs Now

The phonopostal is an apparat-
us which registers and afterwards
reproduces the human voice by
means OF sheet of pasteboard
shaped like postal card. The
records are made by an ordinary
photograph of the simplest pos
sible type simply by means of
stylus provided with a sapphire
point. This point presses on an
imprcssionable substance spread
on the surface of the card. The
merit OF the invention consists in
the discovery of a substance which
can be easily spread on a sheet of
cardboard and possesses all the
advantages of the wax-coated cy-
finders. Moreover, it is able to
stand the strain of transmission BY
mail. The sounds are inscribed in
a spiral, which commences at the
outside edge OF the card and con-
tinucs i'll an ever-narrowing curve
until it forms a small circle. The
record is so deeply engraved in the
coated cardboard that not more
than two or three syllables are lost
by the two stampings OF the post
office on the conccntric lines. Is
or so words can be inscribed on
phonocard, which is sufficient for
news.

Motor. Boots The Latest

According to the Express, Parisians were
startled yesterday by seeing bg-booted man
whizzing along the Avcnue DIES Champs Elysees,
and thence to the Bots de Boulogne at the rate
of IS miles an hour. 1t was Constantine, the in
vcntor OF motor boots, displaying the new foot
wear.
The boots resemble tiny automobiles IS in
ches long, fixed on high boots. Each have four
rubber-tired wheels eight inches in diameter.
Accumulators are carried in belt. They
transmit by wires "a horsepower to each mo-
tor. The motors can be run at speed ranging
from to 30 miles an hour. Each boot weighs
10 pounds, but as the feet are not lifted up the
weight does not matter.
Constantine says he has travelled several hun
dred miles with them. He intends to travel from
Paris to St. Petersburg on them.
When asked what would happen if one motor
started at the rate of six miles an hour and the
other at 30, he became difident, and declined to
discuss the subject.

Natural Uprising From Long Suffering

Henry Clews said In New York:
1T is a natural uprising of long-suf-
fering people. who have been held down by
the iron rule of an arbitrary and autocratic
government. Evidently the time has come
for the Russian people to rise up and as
sert their human rights to be more in keep
ing with this enlightened age. The car
should not hesitate to liberalize the govern
mental methods for the benefit of the peo-
pie, and thereby restore contentment and
make his subjects truly patriotic in conse-
ouence."
