When Taken Suddenly Ill
Here is a Common-Sense
Safeguard

Big, strong man is as a helpless in
rant when he is suddenly i'll. The
sturdiest chap in town usually loses
his self-control, and is utterly unable
to regard his condition with the com
mon sense that characterizes his
everyday actions.
For example: He comes home tired,
eats a heavy dinner, and sits down to
read and smoke away a quiet even
ing.
Suddenly he notices a weight on his
stomach; then sharp pains around his
heart, and feeling of suffocation.
Thouguhts of heart disease rush
over him, and in his agony he fears
the worst.
His trouble was acute indigestion
brought on by overlooking his tired
stomach.
A couple of Dyspepsia Tablets would
have given him instant relief-would
have saved him hours of suffering.
Carry package of Rexall Dyspep-
STA Tablets in your vest pocket, or
keep them in your room. Take one
after each heavy meal and indigestion
will not bother you.
Rexau Dyspepsia Tablets remedy
stomach troubles by supplying the one
element, the absence of which in the
gastric juices causes indigestion and
dyspepsia. They aid the stomach to
6igest food and to quickly convert it
into rich red blood and material nee
essary for overcoming natural body
waste.
We know what RexaIl Dyspepsia
Tablets are and what they will do. We
guarantee them to relieve indigestion
and dyspepsia. If they fail we will re-

a new feat of daring for women but
a wild race in the clouds is a decided
diversion. Always rivals for honors
in social circles the two girls entered
the contest with unusual vim and no
little feeling.
Miss Miller won, as the balloon in
which she was, went farther than the
Queen of the Pacific. Distance was
the condition of the race.
The race was held under the aus
pices of the Oakland Aero club and
was a contest between the City of
Oakland, sailed by J. C. Mars of that
club, and the Queen of the Pacific of
the San Francisco Aero club. A cup
was the trophy raced for. The Queen
of the Pacific was compelled to come
to the ground before reaching the
waters of the bay. The City of Oak

reached San Francisco and, being
borne back by a west wind. landed
finally near the Key Route pier at the
foot of B street in West Oakland
The Queen of the Pacific had 10
minutes start of its rival. but the
wind was so light that it did not get
far away. Ivy Baldwin, who accom-
panied the girl, let out ballast until
the balloon was nearly 1000 feet IN
the air. A light wind from the east
then struck 1t and it drifted toward
the bay. The other balloon had the
same experience.
Roth aeronauts tried repeatedly to
find different air currents, but With
out success. They raised and lowered
their balloons again and again IN the
hope of finding a proper WIND that
would carry them inland. They could

bay. -

agency" declared Prof. G. w. A.
Luckey Of the University of Nebraska
today before the physical education

children crippled in mind and body.
He asserted that the race of weak and
crippled persons living in the cities
is so great as to leave no argument
against the charge that cities and city
life are responsible for the low physi-
cal standards among school children
and he believed 1t the coming duty OF
the schools to provide means Of escape
