The Best Food for Workers.

The best food for those who work
with hand or brain is never high
priced.
The best example of this is found in
Quaker Oats. It stands at the top
among foods that supply nourishment
and vigoF, without taxing the diges-
ton, and yet it is the least expensive
food one can eat.
This great food value and low cost
make it an ideal food for families who
want to get the greatest good from
what they eat.
Laborers, factory or farm bands. fed
plentifully on Quaker Oats will work
better and with less fatigue than if
fed on almost any other kind OF food.
All Of these facts were proved and
very interesting information about
human foods were gathered by Pro
fessOr Fisher of Yale University in
1908. You'll find Quaker Oats in reg
ular size packages, and Theoretically
sealed tins: the latter is best for hot
climates. a

twenty years for an opportunity to

This is the characterization of the

church, L. s. A, by the Cumberland
Presbyterian Publishing House at
Nashville, in a statement issued today
before the synod of Tennessee of the
Cumberland Presbyterian church in
session here.
The report declares ''the revenues
of a church of Jesus Christ have been

53179 worse of now than before they
stole the whole publishing plant for
the benefit of the old piratical North

Mr.. Philip LOos, travelling repre-
sentative of the Indiana Drug Goods
Co, of Indianapolis, called and shook
hands with Gray. In the course of his
conversation he acknowledged that
for many years he suffered with a Sc
we're case of catarrh of the head. He
could feel the mucus drop from mis-
head into his throat, and every day,
especially in the morning, he would
spit out chunks OF phlegm. He also
had constant roaring, buzZing
sound in his ears. After using only
three bottles of Quaker Herb Extract
and two bottles of Oil Of Balm all OF
his troubles left him. Wherever he
travels now he does not fail to tell
people of his remarkable cure of Ca
tarrh by the Quaker Herb Remedies.
Gray will furnish a bottle of Quaker

prove the power of Quaker. Call and

HEARTBURN, INDIGESTION, GAS
AND ALL STOMACH MISERY RE-
LIEVED IN FIVE MINUTES WITH
LITTLE pIAPEPSIN.

Nothing will remain undigested or
sour on your stomach if you will take
a little Diapepsin occasionally. This
powerful digestive and antacid. though
as harmless and pleasant as candy,
will digest and prepare for aSsimila-
ton into the blood all the food you
can eat.
Eat what your stomach Graves.
without the slightest fear of Indiges-
ton or that you will be bothered
with sour risings, Belching, Gas on
Stomach, Heartburn, Headaches from
stomach, Nausea, Bad Breath, Water
BFash or a feeling like you had swal-
lowed a lump of lead, or other dis
agreeable miseries. Should you be
suffering now from any stomach dis
order you can get relief within five
minutes.
If you will get from your phar-
macist a 50-cent case OF Pape's
Diapepsin you could always go to the
table with a hearty appetite, and
your meals would taste good, because
you would know there would be no
Indigestion or Sleepless nights or
Headache or Stomach misery all the
next day; and, besides, you would not
need laxatives or liver pills to keep
your stomach and bowels clean and
fresh.
Papeis Diapepsin can be obtained
from your druggist, and contains more
than sufficient to thoroughly cure the
worst case of Indigestion or Dyspep-
STA. There is nothing better for Gas
on the Stomach or sour odors from
the stomach or to cure a Stomach
Headache.
