MISERY IN THE STOMACH GOES
Harmless And-Ferment and
 Digestive Gives Relief
Digests Anything You Eat Just the Same as a Strong Healthy Stomach Would.

You haven't Catarrh of the Stomach, or Nervousness, or Gastritis, or Can cer, etc. Prove this by taking Pape's Diapepsin after your very next meal. Convince yourself within five minutes that your actual disease was sour. acid Stomach-Food fernrntation-that ev- cry bite you ate turned to Stomach gas, Stomach poison and Acid, which makes you feel sick and miserable, producing such symptoms as pain in the pit of the stomach. Difficulty in breathing, after a meal, Headaches, Belching. Heartburn, Nauseous breath, Water Brash, Biliousness, Sour risings, Gas on Stomach and many other bad feelings.
 Indigestion is a result, not a cause, of your misery. If the Stomach is sour,- your food becomes tainted, and that's why you have these stomach disorders.
 Ask your pharmacist to show you a case of Pape's Diapepsin. which costs only 50 cents. Read what this effect i've Stomach and digestive treatment contains, and how absolutely harmless it must be: how it does for the Stom- ach what the washing and sun bath do for the churn; absolutely removes every corrupting or tainting element, and will digest all the food you can eat.
 Go to your druggist and get some Diapepsin now, then eat anything you want at your next meal, and you will not suffer from Indigestion or Stom- ach trouble. Each bite of food will taste good, and, besides, you will not. need liver regulators to keep your in- testines and Stomach clean and fresh.
 Now and forever rid yourself of the misery of Indigestion and Stomach trouble. Make your meals pleasure by going to the table with a healthy appetite

use by the machinery at the Oliver and Irish Mag shafts from the Junction mine because the water from the other shafts was so impure as to greatly cor rode the boilers.
 The workings at the Hoatson mines, owned by the Superior and Pittsburg Copper company, are now nearly HOO feet deep. This is the deepest working in the Warren district and it is said that the outlook is very favorable at this depth as numerous small bodies of high grade ore have been encoun- tered. The ore shipments being made daily by the Superior and Pittsburg company are now coming from the 1000 level of the Cole shaft, the 1.300- foot lever of the HOatson and 1,400- foot level of the Junction.
 During the past month the shaft at the Denn mine has been sunk a dis tance of fifty feet and it is now in white lime rock. Forty-one men are now employed at this property. The intention of the management is to con- tinue sinking until the ore body en- countered by the diamond drill be- tween the 1900 and 1.4OO-foot levels is reached.
 At the Shattuck property forty men are employed and during the last month 1,2OO tons of ore were shipped to the shelter at Douglas. This rep resented the ore which had accumu- lated during the progress of develop ment work on the various drifts in the mine and no shipments are at the present time being made. Several bodies of high grade ore have recently been encountered at this property and the rumor is again current that the Phelps Dodge people are about to buy it. Local officials of the Shattuck deny any knowledge whatever of such a proposed sale but the rumor is nevertheless very persistent.

 poration the right to dam the Colo rado' river north of this town. The scheme on it's surface is one to gen crate electric light and power, but the passage of the bill and its approval by the president would defeat a project already planned by the United States reclamation service to reclaim the val ley lands lying south of Parker. These lands include the Colorado Mohave Indian reservation of something like 250.000 acres. lying on the Arizona side of the river, and about 100000 acres

These now are completed, or practically so, and until the introduce tion of this bill in congress the people of the valley have looked forward with confidence to some action by congress that would make possible the con- structiOn of one or more dams north of Parker for the reclamation of the lands described. However. if the gov ernment gives away these sites, or even one of them, the whole scheme would be killed.

The end of it would be that the title of the lands would pass to the corporation by pur- chase or by grant of congress. and settlers would be deprived of oppor- tunity to establish homes in a fertile and desirable portion of the public do- main.
