are conceded TO be one of the. fastest
semi professional aggfeg ations ever
ORGANIZED in New Orleans, their line
up including number of players of
state wide reputation. They hope to
open their season by taking a fall out
Of the invincible Blues. but the latter
are stronger and speedier than ever
and feel confident of their ability to
hand thesvisitors the short end Of the
score.
In commemoratfon of the opening of
the season, Manager John Oubre will |
give away, absolutely free, a hand
some gold watch. Each person in at
'endance will be presented with a I

All Stomach Misery vanishes
Five Minutes Later
GET SOME DIA-
PEPSlN NOW

Why not start now-today, and for.
ever rid yourself of Stomach trouble
and indigestion? A dieted stomach
gets the blues and grumbles. Give il
good eat, then take Pape's DIapepsin
to start the digestive juices working
There will be no dyspepsia or belching
OF gas or eructations OF undigested
food: no feeling like lump of lead ir
the stomach or heartburn, slck head
ache and dizziness, and your food will
not ferment and poison your breath
with nauseous ordors.
Pape's Diapepsin costs only 40 cents
for large case at any drug store
here, and will relieve the most obstin-
ate case of Indigestion and Upset
Stomach in five minutes.
There is nothing else better to take
Gas from Stomach and cleanse the
stomach and intestines, and besides,
one triangule will digest and prepare
for assimilation into the blood all your
food the same as sound, healthy
stomach would do it.
When Diapepsin works. your stom-
ach rests-gets itself in order, cleans
up-and then you feel like eating
when you come to the table, and what
you eat will do you good.
Absolute relief from all Stomach
Misery is waiting for you as soon as
you decide to begin taking Diapepsin.
Tell your druggist that you want
Pape's Diapepsin, because you want TO
be thoroughly cured of Indigestion.
