CAUSE AND EFFECT
Good Digestion Follows Right rooo'

Indigestion and the attendant dis

Those who are still young and

that. as dropping water will wear
stone away at last, so will the use OF
heavy. greasy, rich food, finally cause

OIL Is Struck in Sewer County.

Arkansas Thursday strengthened
her claim to being the greatest state
in the Union in the way of natural
resources, when at depth of not
quite 600 feet, the drill at the pros
pecting we'll of the Nichols Oil and
Gas Cimpany, near Lockesburg, struck
a vein of petroleum. While the well
now produces only three barrels per
day, the officers and stockholders of
the company are jubilant at the in
dications, and experts in the employ
of the company are certain that not
more than 400 feet more of drilling
will reach a rich pool in the Tren-
that depth.
The Nichols Oil and Gas Company
is composed Of Arkansas men and
Arkansas capital and derives its name
from William Nichols of Lockesburg,
who was instrumental in leasing q
900 acres of promising territory few
miles southeast of there. The near
est oil we'll was at Annanias, La, 20
miles distant, and the drilling OF the
test we'll at Locksburg was a consld-
cradle hazard, in spite of the assur-
ance of the expert biologists. Should
the we'll come up to the expectations
of the company the remainder of the
lease hold will be developed as rapid
ly as possible.
Drilling on the well was started
about 60 days ago and the evident
good fortune that has befallen the COM
pany has not deferred operations.
Within the next 80 days Trenton rock
will have been reached.
