Thomas a. Edison, the great Ameri.
can inventor, says: "Fully eighty per
cent of the illness of mankind comes
from eating improper food or to much
food people are inclined to over-in-
dulge themselves" This is where in
digestion finds its beginning in nearly
every case. The stomach can do Just
80 much work and no more, and when
you overload it, or when you eat the
wrong kind of food, the digestive organs
cannot possibly do the work demanded
of them. 1t is at such times that the
stomach needs help; it demands help,
and warns you by headaches, belching,
sour stomach, nausea and indigestion.
You should attend to this at once BY
taking something that will actually do
the work for the stomach. Kodol will
do this. 1t is combination of natural
digestants and vegetable acids and con-
tains the same juices found in healthy
stomach 1t is pleasant to take. 1t di-
gests what you eat. Sold by J. T.. Pill.

An exchange says: Learn this one
thing learn it early in life and learn it
well, that the man who does not believe
as you do is not always a fool. The fact
that you hold views not in accord with
your neghbor is not proof positive that
you are right and he is wrong, nor is it
evidence that your neighbor is insin-
cere. If this were not true, then all
smart men would belong to one party
and all good men to one church. And
If all men belonged to one party and one
church they would break up both party
and church. There are two kinds of
gossipers and both classes are a genuine
nuisance to society and an abominable
evil in general. One class deliberately
lie and circulate lies. The besmiching
of reputation is their delight. The
other class, but little better, takes
great delight in delving in past and re.
minding the present generation of all
the forgotten faults and foolish errors
and mistakes made by people who have
since redeemed by life of honesty and
probity. Ifall the gossips were trans
ported the work of salvation would be a
far easier task than it is now.
