Christmas GiVinr.

The one feature of Christmastido
that caNrot be- ovordo9c is the giving
Of comfort to the needy. Sometimes
it aprcars that the custom of oX-
changing Gifts has its quostola5l"
side. in the increasing demands upon
slender purses and the cultivation of a
spirit of mondicancy in sorvitors.
These matters however, regulate
themselves. and probably little harm
is done by the swelling of the spirit
of generosity at this holy time. But
the relief of the poor and unfortunate
is blessed work that can never work
injury to him who gives.

Tales Told About Town
ONCE SET A RECORD.
Am Argus. reporter happened

An Argus reporter happened to be
in the Office of Frank Hart, district
passenger agent of the Burlington
road, yesterday, when dingy looking
little engine passed by ON the tracks
below, hauling train of freight cars.
The sight of the engine recalled old
memories to Mr. Hart, and he told the
reporter of story connected with the
engine which had just passed by. The
engine is at present numbered 1125
and is doing freight service between
this city and Clinton. Seven years ago
1T was the pride of the road, however.
as 1t had set record for the run from
Chicago to Burlington which has never
been equaled since The distance is
FOG miles and the time it took for the
run was 1877 minutes, or considerably
better than mile minute Newer.
bigger and better engines have long
since taken the place of No. lips in
the passenger. service, but none of
them have come up to it's record. and
though 1t has to do the despised
freight business now, it would be justi.
lied If it held its head high with the
conviction that 1t is little better than
the rest OF the freight engines.

American dramatic literature who have
successfully provided ontbursts of
Americanism for the stage. THE Man
From Home" neither waves the star
spangled banner nor screeches spread
eagle screams of the red, white and
blue, but it is American to the core,
and it is a solid, meaty wholesome
core With both a literary force and
vitality in its heart, a splendid moral
courteously pointed. and a story which
is rich in humor. delightful in romance
and heated vigorously with melodrama
of choicest theatricalism. "The Man
From Home has an intense appeal for
every sort of amusement seeker from
the frivoler to the thinker. from the
scoffer to the patriot. The plot is COM

are brilliant and succinct. The wit is

NOW AND FOREVER
Rid Yourself of Awful Misery Of
Stomach Trouble and indi-

ALL DYSPEPSIA WILL GO.
What In the Need OF Continuing to Feel
Miserable Day In and Day Out
when You Can BE Free


You haven't catarrh of the stom-
ach, or nervousness. Or gastritis. or
cancer. etc. Prove this by taking
Papes Diapepsin after your very next
meal. Convince yourself within five
minutes that your actual disease was
sour. acir stomach-food fermentation
that every bite you ate turned to
stomach gas, stomach poison and acid,
which makes you feel sick and miser-
able, producing such symptoms as pain
in the pit of the stomach, difficulty in
breathing after meal headaches,
belching, heartburn, nauseous breath,
water brash, biliousness. sour risings,
gas on stomach and many other bad
feelings.
Indigestion is result, not cause,
| of your misery. If the stomach is
sour. your food becomes tainted. and
that'e why you have these stomach
disorders.
Ask your pharmacist to show you a
case of PaDes Diapepsin, which costs
only 80 cents. Read what this eff
fective stomach and digestive tract
| ment contains, and how absolutely
harmless it must be; how it does fol
the stomach what the washing and sun
bath do for the churn; absolutely re
moves every corrupting or taintini
element. and will digest all the food
lyou can eat.
Go to your druggist and get soma
Diapepsin now, then eat anything you
want at your next meal. and you viii
not suffer from Indigestion or stomach
trouble. Each bite of food will tast,
good, and. besides, you will not neet
liver regulators to keep your mites
tines and stomach clean and fresh.
Now and forever rid yourself of tn,
misery of indigestion and stomach
trouble. Make yoru meals a pleasure
by going to the table with a health.
