GET RID OF THE GAS
! Or. Williams Pink Pills Strengthen
the Stomach and Enable Il to
| Do Its Work,

When the stomach is feeble the food
lies in it undigested, decays and throws
of poisonous gases that distend the
walls OF the stomach and cause inter.
ference with other organs, especially
with the action OF the heart and lungs.
These gases have other ill effects. The
nerves and the brain are disturbed
and discomforts such as dizziness, hot
flashes, sleeplessness, irritableness aud
dependency originate from this source.
Experience shows that these troubles
vanish just as soon AS the stomach Is
made strong enough to digest the food.
In other words. ii needs a tonic that will
rouse it to do the work Of changing the
food into nourishment.
Miss Minerva g. Ladd, OF Ipswich,
Mass, says: II had II weak stomach
from the time l was little child.
Whenever l took hearty food it would
cause terrible faintness, and / would
finally vonit what had eaten. At
times there would be the most intense
pains through the upper part Of my
body. For days in succession, would
have to lie down most Of the time.
The distress was often NO great that
could hardly bear it, and the frequent
and violent belching spells were very
disagreeable, too.
my DOCTORS medicines gave me little
relief and it was not until tried Dr.
Williams Pink Pilisthat found q cure.
Within three weeks a decided improve
meut was noticeable. The belching
spells were less frequent, the pains
through my body were not NO intense.
my food was retained and after taking
the pills for few weeks longer found
that was altogether free from the
miseries had 30 long suffered"

THE FISHING CASE.
NOT so BAD AS IT MIGHT De
Though Property Is Protected From
Tresspass, Owners Are Not
All Curmudqeons.

1t is TO be hoped that the fishermen
OF the state will accept the final decis-
ion OF the Supreme Court in the fish
case in the proper spirit, and that
there will be no attempt at foolish
measures of so-cailed retaliation. says
the Leadvflle Herald Democrat. We
see 1t stated that some sportsmen had
declared that IL the decision was
against the fishermen they would in
stitute other proceedings and drive the
state fish commission out OF business.
All this would be extremely unwise.
because II would injure the fishermen
themselves and accomplish no good re-
suit.
As a matter of fact the decision OF
the Supreme Court in the case prop
erly understood is not against the fish
ermen. 1t is the simple assertion on
the part OF the court OF the rights of
property and its protection against
tresspass. 1t does not necessarily fol-
low that every owner of property
through which trout stream mean.
ders Is going to post dogs and senti-
nels SO as to keep fishermen away. 1t
doesn't imply that every ranchman in
the state is crusty old curmudgeon
who intends to play the dog in the
mduStE nut IL uOeS assert tHat Wnen
a fisherman is on private land indulg.
Ing in his favorite sport that he is
there as privilege and not as right.
IL he attends strictly to his fishing and
has some regard for the property and
crops of the rancher It is hardly likely
that one individual in n thousand will
make objection.
The Pueblo Chieftain sums up the
situation thus:
IF the fishermen had always been
| reasonably and decently considerate of
the rights of the land owners, It is
probable that this question would
never have been brought into the
courts. But where the fisherman
breaks down fences. leaves gates open.
turns stock into meadows, or tramps
through grain fields, 1t Is not surprin.
ing that the ranchmen should seek
some remedy. and the fact is that
things had come to pass in some val
leys in this state, that 1t seemed to be
question as to which has the greater
right on the farm. the owner or the
fisherman"
The Herald-Democrat would suggest
that in case any ranchman shows a dis
position to be mean with the decent
sportsman that the case be reported to
the local Sportsmen's Association and
the name be posted so as to give fair
warning in order that the churl be
given wide berth.

lively rate than ever. The bookkeep-
