In Five Minutes.

Take your sour stomach--or maybe
you call it Indigestion, Dyspepsia, Gas
tritis or Catarrh OF Stomach; it doesn't
matter-take your stomach trouble right
with you to your Pharmacist and ask him
to open 50-cent case Of Pape's Dispep-
sin and let you eat one 22-grain Triangule
and see If within five minutes there is
left any trace of your stomach misery.
The correct name for your trouble is
Food Fermentation-foo souring; the
Digestive organs become weak, there is
lack of gastric juice; your food is only
half digested, and you become affected
with loss Of appetite, pressure and fullness
after eating, vomiting, nausea, heartburn,
gripping in bowels, tenderness in the pit
OF stomach, bad taste in mouth, consti-
patton, pain in limbs, sleeplessness,
belching of gas, biliousness, sick head
ache, nervousness, dizziness and many
other similar symptoms.
II your appetite is tickle, and nothing
tempts you, or you belch gas, or IL you
feel bloated after eating, or your food
lies like lump of lead on your stomach
you can make up your mind that at the
bottom Of all this there is but enc cause
fermentation OF undigested food.
/ Prove to yourself, after your next mea
that your stomach is as good as any; tina
there is nothing really wrong. Stop thil
fermentation and begin eating what yoI
want without fear Of discomfort o.
misery.
Almost instant relief is waiting for you
II Is merely a matter Of how soon yoS
, take little Diapepsin.

HGHTH GRADE EXAMINATIONS.
County Board of Education to Test Knowledge of Pupils tn Five
 of Valley Cities.

Of general interest to school pa t-ons of Imperial Valley are the ar engagements made by the County Board of Education for holding of ex- azainations of candidates for gradua- tAon from the Eighth Grade, as a pre- EAratory step to next years entrance h the high schools.
 These examinations will be con sscted by members of the County Board of Education, beginning at 9 s'elock on Saturday, May 1, in Braw- Icy, Imperial, Fl Centro, Holtville and GAlexico, at the grammar schools of these cities, and on Saturday, May IS, at the same hour and places.
 One half of the subjects for examin- alton will be given on the first Satur- day, viz: spelling, arithmetic, physio- legy, nature study, music and drawing, and geography. The second half of these examinations, to be held on the third Saturday of May, will include hterature and reading, grammar and composition, history, book keeping and penmanship, which will be graded up os the paper in literature.
 The County Board of Education has issued to school directors and teach CTS a circular in which the cond- tons of these examinations are set fwth. The circular says, in part:
 "The examination shall be written except that the examining member of the Board may in his discretion give am oral examination in any subject if tame does not permit the completion sf written papers in each subject.
 "The class standing of the pupils in the Eighth Grades must be sent h by the teachers to the office of the County Superintendent two days be- fere the examinations in the sub jects.
 Falling below 50 per cent in more than one subject of the Examination constitutes failure to graduate.
 Falling below 50 per cent in only sae subject of the Examination con- stitutes a condition in that subject. A condition may be removed during CT before December of the following school year by an examination before a member of the County Board of Education or before High School Principal with the approval of the County Board of Education. The di- p8oma of graduation will be granted upon removal of condition.
 Graduation will be determined by an average of 75 per cent in the Ex- animation grades modified in certain eases at the discretion of the Board bg the grades obtained in class stand Ing"

ARTISAN WATERS
Government Report on Indio Region and Effect of Shrinking of Sal.
 ton Sea.

The United States Geological Sur vey has issued water supply paper 225, treating of the ground waters of the Indio region and containing a sketch of the geological history of the Colorado desert by W. c. Menden- hall. Two maps showing the topo- graphy of the Salton basin and the wells Of the Indio and Coachella re- zion, accompany the pamphlet copies of which will be supplied by Senator Frank P. Flint to applicants.
 Speaking of the ground waters of the Indio region, Mir Mendenhall says:
 Instead of dIscharging into lar ger water body, as do surface streams generally, the ground waters discharge into the air by evaporation from the moist lands, a very minor part, of course, escaping through the springs that are found in the lower parts of the desert. This escape is effected as a result of the hydraulic head of lhC 6AOuuu WdbCIS dlu IuSlI COnbldul tendency to rise as a consequence of this head, and, when they are near enough to the surface for it to act, as consequence of capillarity also. The waters are removed by evapora- tion as quickly as they approach the surface. With this condition in mind, the effect of the water body in the Salton depression at once becomes ap- parent. It acts on the underground waters much as a dam across its mouth would act upon a river. A great part of the field from which the ground waters evaporated is GOV cred by the lake end evaporation therefrom is prevented; and part of the hydraulic head under whose in- fiuence the ground waters rose to the surface is balanced by the pressure of the lake waters, and this rise of with Very much less of the water of the Coachella Valley must be wasting now through evaporation than before the creation of the Salton Sea No quantitive estimate can be made of this effect. It can only be said that it must be sufficiently powerful to be beneficial to the users of ground wat CT in the Indio region.
 This beneficial condition is neces- sarily temporary, as the Salton Sea Is temporary. If the engineering work 1 done and to be done about the intake of the Imperial Canal accomplishes it's purpose of preventing further in flow of the Colorado, the Salton Sea will probably have nearly disappeared by 1925; and as it gradually shrinks a larger and larger area will be ex- posed, through which ground waters will escape by capillarity and evep- oration, until, with the disappearance of the sea, the conditions that pre- vailed before 1t came into existence will have been restored. From the point of view of the users of ground waters in the Coachella Valley, 1t Is to be regretted that the sea can not be maintained at it's present level"

SCHOOL BUILDING CONTRACT.

The Board of Directors of the El Centro school district will meet on Monday to award the contract for erection of the city's two-story school building. The structure must be com pleted and in readiness for the open ing of the next school year. It will be the largest building of its kind in Imperial Valley, but with the growth of El Centro the probabilities are that all the room available will be re- quired within two years.

state educational institutions of the
Mississippi valley are those OF Him
OILS, Wisconsin, Minnesota and Ne
braska, each of which combines all
of their institutions In one. The state
OF Iowa, the richest in agriculture of
any state in the Mississippi valley,
has two institutions, neither of whirh
take rank alongside those last mem
toned. 1t is unanimously conceded
by educational men that had Iowa
combined her two institutions in one
the combined university would cas-
lily out-rank any of those named
above. With the examples Of the
good effect of one strong, united in
stitution furnished by these states ON
one hand, and the pernicious effect
of younger states trying to divide
their financial support among two or
more institutions. as illustrated by
our neighboring states on the other
hand, 1t would certainly be the part
of wisdom for the young and grow
ing state of Idaho to maintain her
university. agricultural college and
school OF science in one compact in
stitution and make 1t as strong as It
is possible for her to do so. Il would
certainly be wiser to do this, even II
a constitutional amendment must be
adopted, moving. the entire institu-
tion to the center of population of
the state. than it would be to divide
it and try to support two schools of
second rate.
