End this Misery To-day With
Some Oiapepsin.
Don't Continue a Stomach Sufferer
With Relief So Handy.

The question as to how long you are
going to continue a sufferer from Indi-
geStiOn and Stomach trouble is merely
a matter of how soon you begin taking
Diepepsin.
If your Stomach is lacking in diges-
tive power, why not help the stomach
to do its work. not with drastic drugs,
agents. such as are naturally at work
in the stomach
People with weak Stomachs should
eat DiapeDsin after meals, and there
VIII be no more indigestion, no feel
ing like lump of lead in the stom-
ach, no heartburn, Sour rsings, Gas
on Stomach or Belching of undigested
food, Headaches, Dizziness or Vomit-
ing, and, besides, what you eat will
not ferment and poison your breath
with nauseous Odors. All these symp-
toms resulting from sour stomach
AMI dyspepsia are generally relieved
i've minutes after eating one Triangule
of Diapepsin.
Go TO your druggist and get 5O-cent
case of Pape's Diapepsin now, and you
will always go to the table with a
hearty appetite and what you eat viii
taste good because your stomach and
intestine> will be clean and fresh, and
you will know there are not going to
be any more bad nights and miserable
days for you. They freshen you ana
make you feel like life is worth living.

SOMETHING
WORTH KNOWING
And Knowing Is Believing.
You Can't Have Dyspepsia and Take
KodoI, Because It Digests All the
Food You Eat.

Chronic dypepsia is very hard to
cure. kodol will effectually assist in
curing. and it is far more satisfactory
to prevent this disease. Kodoi pre-
vents dyspepsia. by making the dges-
ton good, and keeping it good. 1t is
worth something to know this. if you
have indigestion, and likely to have
dyspepsia kodol prevents dyspepsia
and makes the digestion good. by di
costing all the food you eat A table
spoonful of KOdOl will digest 2H
pounds of food That is, a tablespoon
ful of KOdcl will digest that quantity
of any kind of food YOU may eat. Not
only a single class of food-but all
kinds of food, in any combination. You
cant have dyspepsia. if you take Kodol
now and then-because it is NOT posi-
bic for you to have dyspepsia, as long
as your food digests properly.-and ko-
dol digests the food you eat. Our guar
| antce-Get 4 dollar bottle of Kodol. If
you are not benefted-the druggist will
at once return your money Don't hes
itate; any druggist will sell you Kodol
| on these terms. The dollar bottle con-
tains 90 times as much as the 50c bot
| tie. kodoi is prepared in the laborato-
| rlcs of E. c. d. Witt & Co. Chicago.

FAMED sIr:elNG BOYS OF JENA.
ougrowth Of Age Of Bacchantes or
Wandering Students.

Hundreds of years ago the streets
OF Jena and other German towns used
to echo to the songs Of black-robed
monks, who went from door to door
singing and begging aims. Their ex-
ample was followed by bands of poor
students, known as Bacchantes. These
Bacchantes wandered from one uni
versity TO another in search of better
instruction or better means of SUD-
port. Such a wandering life was ia
vored by the customs Of times when
people thought II virtue to give free-
Ely to all persons seeking help, but
especially to monks and students.
The Racchantes had with them
younger travelling scholars known as
skirmishers, who were to receive in
structton in return for certain services.
The younger skirmisher had TO wait
