have indigestion in one of it's stages,

OF course there are many other symp-
toms of indigestion, such as belching
up of sour food, heartburn. dizziness,
shortness of breath and foul breath,
and if you have any of them, your
stomach is out of order and should be
corrected.

That Weber county is developing
dairy interests which bring a revenue
of thousands of dollars monthly TO the
farmers is not generally known. but
nevertheless true. Within the last
ten years wonderful change for the
better has been observed in the dairy
herds and today this county has the
name of producing the best butter In
the intermountain country.
Scientific farming. which includes
the care of livestock. is adding wealth
to this county and laying the founda-

thousands are TO find employment 1t

COMMENTS ON THE OLD

CHILD KILLED BY AN AUTO
IN SALT LAKE CITY

Salt Lake, Aug. 4-Llttle Ora Van
Noy of 112l Second avenue was struck
by an automobile driven by Roger
Powers at s o'clock last night. The
child's neck was broken and she died
twenty minutes later, without regain

The child was only years old, and
her parents. Mr aud Mrs William c.

could be reached by telephone. They
were found at Thayne. Wyo., and the

CHILD KILLED BY AN
AUTOMOBILE.

We want all the autolsts OF ogden
TO read tho account OF the killing Of
little child by Roger Powers while
driving his automobile along Second
avenue In Salt Lake City. We want
the chauGeurs of Ogden to give ser
ious thought to the story of death.
We have seen sensible men-sens-
ible at any time OF place other than
in control OF an automobile their
machines at full speed down back
streets where children were playing
and each time this has occurred We
have stopped In dread TO watch the
progress of the speeding machine.
Some day the fellow who makes a
practice of running his automobile un-
der full power through avenues where
little ones arc gathered will have the
same torturing mind as that which
now tells Roger Powers be might have
avoided terrible fatality had he in
yariably practiced greater caution.
There is danger ever present when
an automobile Is propelled rapidly on
streets where children are playing.
The little ones invariably are quick
on their feet, running and jumping,
first on the sidewalk and then iE the
street, and. in an unguarded moment,
child may run directly in the path
of rushing automobile and then it
is TOO late to correct the misjudgment
Of chauffeur and child
There must be quite as much pleas
ure in riding in an automobile which
is always under perfect control. to
be stopped Instantly. If necessary, as
there is in being jolted in a machine
which Is tearing along over bumps and
crossings, endangering the lives of
young and old in the path of the Joy
riders" If there Is not the same
thrill in safe and sane riding that is
to be found in speeding. then there
certainly is this compensating thought
that the ride at a reasonable rate of
speed will not terminate in a disaster
the recollections of which will plague
and distract.
A few evenings past a woman in an
turned the corner of Wash
ington avenue and Twent, Sourth
street at full speed. although there
was a stream of people moving over
the crossing. The woman seemed to
be possessed Of a desire to draw at.
tention TO her clever handling of the
machine and she took a chance. OF
oyer any one who might make
a misstcp, in order to crafty her van
ity.
II is reckless driving of this kind
that has tended TO develop a senti-
ment which vents itself in severe con-
demnation of those who are called Joy
riders

Grams were We'll received; that their
gathering passed off so pleasantly and
without mishap; that SO much was
done by the citizens of the state to
make the visit Of the veterans OF the

gratifying in the highest degree. Let

remains that there is glory enough for

All over this western country there
are wealthy men heavily interested
in the sheep industry The nature OF
the industry makes It necessary for
men to live out in the hills ont on
the deserts, away from the centers OF
civilization. But after they have real
ized their hopes: after they have ac-
quired enough of the worlds wealth

sacrifices, they naturally turn TO the

Here is indicated the work the wide
awake men Of Ogden have to perform
with reference to the wool growers
convention. Delegates will come from
all western states They win como
with their eyes open. II is incumbent
upon Ogden TO receive and entertain
them so wen. to give them such a
good impression of the city and its
people that many of them will be
ready TO invest here. purchase homes
and locate their families here. II
will be necessary to send every dele
gate and every visitor away singing
the praises of Ogden and her clti.
zens.
No doubt the committees that have
the preliminary work for the conven-
ton in hand are laying their plans
already They cannot be too active
from this time on From now on to
the time of the convention is but five
months. There is much work to be
done in the meantime. and the size
and success of the convention will
depend largely upon their early ef-
forts.
