We are dreamcrs all In this dream OF life
And a very good dream. with its toll. its
strife,
Its song and laughter. It's love and cheer.
Its loss and worry and grief and fear.

And. God be praised In the dew. the dust

TO the gray haired prophet that crawls

STOMACH DISTRESS.
And all Misery from Indigestion
vanishes Five Minutes Later.

Every family here ought to keep some
Diapepsin in the house, as any one of
YOU may have an attack of Indigestion
or Stomach trouble at any time, day or
night.
This harmless preparation will digest
anything you eat and overcome sour
stomach five minutes afterwards.
II your meals don't tempt you, or what
little you do eat seems to fill you, or lays
like lump Of lead in your stomach, or if
YOU have heartburn, that is a sign of
indigestion.
Ask your Pharmacist for a 50cent
case of Pape's Diapepsin and take one
triangule after supper tonight There
will be no sour risings, no belching of
undigested food mixed with acid, no
stomach gas or heartburn, fullness or
heavy feeling in the stomach, Nausea,
Debilitating Headaches, Dizziness or In
testinal gripping. This will all go, and,
besides, there will be no sour food left
over in the stomach TO poison your breath
with nauseous odors.
Pape's Diapepsin is certain cure for
all stomach misery, because it will take
hold of your food and digest it just the
same as if your stomach wasn't there.
Actual, prompt relief for all your
ST omach misery is at your Pharmacist,
waiting for you.
These large 50-cent cases contain more
than sufficient TO cure case of Dyspep-
STA or Indigestion.

SIMPLE WASH CURES
ECZEMA.
Why Salves Fail While a Sim pie
Liquid Has Accomplished
Thousands of Cures.

1t is now thoroughly established among
the best me dical authorities that eczema
is purely a skin disease, due to germ
and durable only through the skin. 1t is
not blood disease at all; in fact thou
sands of people suffer with skin disease
and are perfectly healthy otherwise, and
thereby prove they have no diseased
blood.
Simeary salves cannot reach the germs
because they do not penetrate the skin.
The only way to reach the germs is by
means of penetrating liquid.
Such liquid can be obtained by sim
ply mixing ordinary oil of wintergreen
with thymol, glycerine and other healing
agents. This compound. known as d. d.
d. Prescription, stops the itch instantly
and the cures all appear to be permanent.
In fact, it took thousands of cures. case
after case, before the best scientific au-
thorities were convinced of the absolute
merit of this remedy. D. D. d. Pre-
scription kills the germs in the itching
skin. It's effect ia seen within one min
ute after the first application. We es-
pecially recommend D. d. d. Soap in
connection with this treatment
