GAS ON THE STOMACH
OFTEN THE CAUSE OF
GREAT BODILY DISTRESS
1t Indicates a Feeble Stomach in
Which the Food Lies Undi-
gested and Shows Need of
Tonic Treatment.

When the stomach is feeble the food
lies in it undigested, decays and throws
off 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 i'll effects. They
are absorbed by the blood and corrupt
it and so cause aches in remote parts
of the body and the formation of un-
healthy tissue everywhere. General
bodily weakness and loss of weight re-
suit. The nerves and the brain are dis
turbed and discomforts such as dizzi-
ness, hot flashes, sleeplessness, irrita-
bleness, and 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, it needs tonic that
will rouse it to do the work of chang
ing the food into nourishment. The
tonic used ought to be one that will
agree with the most delicate stomach.
Mrs. Amelia Gwinn, a nurse by occu-
patton, lives at 3139 Vernon avenue,
Chicago, Ill. She said recently:
When I was living in Terre Haute,
Ind, some years ago, [ was in bad
health for some months and did not
know what allied me, only that 1 did

I was suffering with indigestion but he
did not cure me.

and could not digest any solid food.
had to diet all of the time and had so
much gas on the stomach that it SEEM
ed at times as though my breath was
leaving me. I was greatly run down
in health and lost in weight.
II decided one day to drop the doc
tors medicine and take DR.. Williams
Pink Pills. The first few boxes helped
me and I took them until cured. I
gained in weight, my digestion became
good and I have been in splendid
health since. I am glad to recommend
DR. Williams Pink Pills as they are
worth their weight in gold.''

better advantage on account of the

Information about the guilds is
most difficult to obtain. One hears of
some high government official confer
ring with the leaders, and there are
rumors of subsidies being granted upon
certain conditions, but there can be no
of these reports. Even
the most ordinary matters are hedged
about with such secrecy and decep-
ton that it would seem to be coun-
try where nothing is ever known that
can be kept secret; where the whole
truth is never told if a half truth win
suffice. All this evasion and indirec-
