ONE MILLION DOLLARS

This Offer Should be a Warn
ing to Every Man and
Woman.

The newspapers and medical journals
have had much to say relative to a ia
nous millionaires offer of a million
dollars for a new stomach
This great multi-milllonaire was too
busy to worry about the condition of

TO run from bad to worse until in the
end it became incurable His mis-
fortune should serve as a warning to
others. Every one who suffers with
dyspepsia for q few years will give
everything he owns for a new stomach
Dyspepsia is caused by an abnormal
state of the gastric juices. There is
one element missing-Pepsin. The alb
sence of this destroys the function Of
the gastric fluids They lose their
power to digest food
We are now able to supply the pep
sin In form almost identical to that
naturally created by the system when
in normal health. so that it restores TO
the pastric juices their digestive pow
er. and thus makes the stomach strong
and well
We want every one troubled with in
digestion and dyspepsia to come to our
store and obtain a box of Rexall Dcs-
pepsia Tablets They contain Bismuth-
Subnitrate and Pepsin prepared by a
process which develops their. greatest
power to overcome digestive distur-
bance.
RexaH Dyspepsia Tablets are very
pleasant to take They soothe the ir-
ritable. weak stomach. strengthen and
invigorate the digestive organs. re-
leve nausea and Indigestion. promote
nutrition and bring about a feeling of
comfort.
If you give Rexall Dyspepsia Tab
let's a reasonable trial we will re-
turn your money II you are not salts
fed with the result. Three sizes. %

Senate Names
zeb KenddII Jr.
(By Special Correspondence. }

CARSON CITY, New, Feb. IL
The only child in Nevada who has
ever enjoyed the distinction of being
christened by legal act of the legisla-
ture is Abraham Lincoln Kendall,
the infant son of Senator and Mrs.
Zsb Kendall of Nye county. Without
a dissenting vote the upper house of
the legislature today passed a reso-
luton comforting the name of Abra-
ham Lincoln upon the son and heir
OF the Kendall households The reso-
luton now goes to engrossment and
from there it will be forwarded to
the governor for his signature. Thus
does it become a portion of this
states history.
Senator Kendall was among the
most surprised of those present
when the resolution was introduced
this morning, but he made no effort
to interfere with the efforts of his
friends. When the vote was an
nounced he blushingly arose and
made his maiden speech, thanking
his associates for the honor they
have conferred upon his boy and
promising them that not only would
he retain the name, but that his am
bition will be to have the son grow
up and follow the example laid down
by the martyred statesman whose
name he now bears. The resolution
in full is as follows:
Whereas, it has come to the
knowledge of the senate that on Feb
ruary IL, 1909, there was born to
the wife Of Senator Zeb Kendall, a
member of this senate, a male child,
as yet unnamed, and
Whereas, said day and date was
the centenary anniversary of the
birth of the immortal and revered
Abraham Lincoln, whose name and
example of patriotic devotion to
country is an inspiration to the child
rem of this nation and the world,
and whose memory we hold in re-
spectful generation, now therefore
Be it resolved by the senate that
the name of the above named infant
Kendall is hereby declared to be
Abraham Lincoln Kendall, and that
the respects of this body be rendered
to Mrs. and Senator Kendall, with
the hope that Abraham lincoln Ken
dali may become blessing to them,
and an honor to the memory of the
martyred statesman whose surname
he bears. \

Useless Office TO
Be Abolished
(By Special Correspondence. }

tBy special correspondence
CARSON, Feb. 17.-Nevada's pub
licity commission is dangerously
close to the rocks. The senate by
unanimous vote this morning passed
Mack's bill abolishing the Office. The
measure now goes to the assembly,
where it is believed Davis friends
will rally to his support and make a
strong effort to either table the mea-
sure or defeat it.
The action of the senate today
came as a surprise, for it is under
stood friends of the publicity mea-
sure believed they would be able to
muster enough votes to at least in
definitely delay the bill.
Mack has been on Davis trail
since the opening of the present ses-
sion. He gives as his reason no ill
will toward Sam, but desire on his
part to cut down what he says is
needless expense for the state gov
eminent.

in the senate today and made spec
ial order for Friday afternoon at
o'clock. The move was made by
friends of the gypsum men during
the absence of Senator Boyd of
Washoe county, who is fighting the
measure, 1t was through Boyd's mo-
ton that the bill was laid on the
table and apparently defeated last
week. Since then enough friends
have been secured to insure the pas
sage of the measure this week. SEN
ators Tallman and Kendall of Nye,
and Syphus of Lincoln have led the
fight for the gypsum miners. and it
was through their efforts, aided by
Balzar of Esmeralda that the matter
was brought up so suddenly and I'M
expectedly this morning.
