.FAvOR|TE FOOD |
CAN BE EATEN
ENJOY YOUR MEALS WITHOUT
FEAR OF DYSPEPSIA OR AN
UPSET STOMACH.

If your meals don't tempt you, Or
you feel bloated after eating and you
believe it is the food which fills you;
if what little you eat lies like a lump
of lead on your stomach; if there is
difficulty in breathing after eating,
quotations of sour food and acid,
heartburn, brash or a belching of gas,
you can make up your mind that you
need something for a sour stomach and
Indigestion. 1855
To make every bite Of food you eat
aid in the nourishment and strength
of your body, you must rid your stom-
ach Of poisons, excessive acid and
stomach gas which sours your entire
meal-interferes with digestion and
causes, so many sufferers of Dyspep-
STA, Sick Headache, Nauseous breath
and stomach trouble of all kind; Pu-
trefying the intestines and digestive
canal, causing such misery as Bill
iousness, Constipation, Gripping, etc.
Your case is no different-you are
stomach sufferer, though you may call
it by some other name; your real and
only trouble is that which you eat does
not digest, but quickly ferments and
sours, producing almost any unhealthy
condition.
A case of Pape's Diapepsin will cost
fifty cents at any Pharmacy here, and
will convince any stomach sufferer
five minutes after taking one TRAN

gestion.
No matter if you call your trouble
Catarrh of the Stomach, Nervousness
or Gastritis or by any other name-al-

WALI.A WALLA GETS
AN EARLIER DATE

Secretary Robert HI. Johnson, OF the
Waila WaHa County Fair association
and Mayor Eugene Tausick, one Of
the principal stockholders, are in
Portland this week attending the meet
ing of the Northwestern Fair asso-
citation, and have made arrangements
according to a letter from Mr.. john
son, to have the Walla Walla date set
for the first week in October, to open
on the 4th and close on the 9Th
Considerable dissatisfaction was ex-
pressed last year with the date given
this city, and the inclement weather
which interfered with the races re-
suited in small attendance for the
greater part of the week, proved that
the date was too late to be certain of
fair weather conditions. Other ques-
tons pertaining to the success of the
annual fairs to be held throughout the
northwest are being considered, and
Secretary Johnson will introduce sew
eral subjects for consideration.

BURGOMASTER
REPEATS ITS
OLD SUCCESS

FreSn as ever and its company quite
capable, 1.-THE Burgomaster' last night
pleased a large audience at the Keylor
Grand. Little need be said of the show,
it is we'll known here; but it is just as
good as ever and it's bright lines and
catchy airs will always be welcomed.
The chorus was not particularly large,
nor particularly beautiful, but it could
sing well and the show went in a. way
that kept the audience good natured.
Ruth White as willie Van Astor-
bilt," the gilded young, man is the same
Ruth White who was seen here last
year, the same Ruth White who has
been playing that role for several
years. And she is still the same dainty,
pretty girl she was when she first es-
sayed the part; and she sings just as
sWeetly. Her song 1.-THE Tale of the
Kangaroo" is without doubt the
catchy piece of the play.
Harry Hermsen as Peter Stuyvest-
ant" was good, very good. His Dutch
accent and clever comedy was good for
laugh at any stage in the game; and
he often drew. Leo Kendall as "DOodleS"
was a winner. He played here last
year and was favorably remembered
by a large portion of the audience, Ma
RE Grandpre, was, besides being pref
ty and graceful, a sweet singer and
won the hearts of the audience easily.
The Lockhart sisters did a clever
dancing stunt in the last act that was
much appreciated by the enthusiast
tic spectators. Eta Lockhart, as
Daisy" was a clever little soubrette
and SANG ssyTha little Son hrette" unite
successfully.
In all, the play took exceptionally
we'll and was more than successful as
balm to bring about forgetfulness OF
care for the two hours and a half
of it's course. 1.-THE Burgomaster' is al
ways welcome.
