One Million Dollars
for a Good Stomach
This Offer Should be a Warn.
ing to Every Man and
Woman

The newspapers and medical jour
nails have had much to say relative to
a famous milllonaire's offer of mill
lion dollars for a new stomach.
This great millionaire was
too busy to worry about the condition
of his stomach. He allowed his dy-
spepsia to run from bad to worse I'M
til In the end 1t became incurable. His
misfortune should serve as a warn
ing to others. Every one who suf-
fers with dyspepsia for few years
will give everything he owns for a
new stomach.
Dyspepsia is caused by an alb
normal state of the gastric juices.
There is one element missing-Pepsin.
The absence of this destroys the func-
ton of the gastric fluids. They lose
their power to digest food.
We are now able to supply the pep
sin in form almost identical to that
naturally created by the system when
in normal health, so that 1t restores to
the gastric juices their digestive pow
err, and thus makes the stomach
strong and we'll.
We want every one troubled with
indigestion and dyspepsia to come to
our store and obtain a box of Rexall
Dyspepsia Tablets. They contain
Bismuth- Subnitrate and Pepsin pre-
pared by a process which develops
their greatest power to overcome di-
gestive disturbance.
Rexall Dyspepsia Tablets are very
pleasant to take. They soothe the
irritable, weak stomach, strengthen
and invigorate the digestive organs
relieve nausea and Indigestion, pro-
mote nutrition and bring about 9
feeling of comfort.
II you give Rexall Dyspepsia Tab
let's a reasonable trial we will return
your money If you are not satisfied
with the result. Three sizes, 25 cents
so cents and $100. Remember you car
obtain Rexall Remedies in Skowhe-
gan only at our store,-The Rexall
Store. F. w. Bucknam.

Smyrna times., 1909-05-19

The Every Evening misconstrues
our editorial of last week that local
option is not a success in Smyrna and
nearby towns. AS a matter of fact
it is a success and the conditions to
day are vastly better than under the
license system. We do say that
our town authorities and Law and
Order Societies are lax in regard to
seeing that the law is enforced.
The Duck Creek Hundred Law and
order Society has not held meeting
since the local option campaign and
cases of drunkenness are allowed to
90 on in town late Saturday night
without an effort to make an example
of them. Local option is all right if
it is enforced the same as any other
law and if the authorities of Smyrna
were as enterprising as the Mayor of
Georgetown is reported to be, the
cases of drunkenness and disorderly
conduct on our streets would be ex-
ceedingly rare. The people of this
vicinity would never vote to go back
to the license system.
Smyrna times., 1909-05-19

The Milford Chronicle treatsawith
sarcasm the idea that ''the judicial
timber in Delaware is to be found alone
in New Castle County, and goes on
to prove the worth of Kent and Sussex
Counties in the matter, first advocat-
ing the Appointment of Judge Penne-
will as Chancellor. The Chronicle
editorial in full is as follows 1--WE
are surprised at the modesty of the
Judiciary slatemakers. of Wilmington
and other points in New Castle County,
in selecting only four of the six
judges from that part of Delaware it
seems strange that the judicial timber
in Delaware is to be found only in
New Castle county. Down here in
lower Kent and upper Sussex counties,
we have had an elegant sufficiency of
importation" to fill judgeships,
and we have faith to believe that
Governor Pennewill can see the bud
ding genius of judges who will do
ample justice to the history of the
State right here in the two lower
counties. We want the best available,
and yet we do not expect from the
Governor the impossible. Let us
have young men of ability and ambi-
tion to grown up to the highest stand
ards, rather than the older men who
have reached the zenith of their legal
ability. There is no question but
that three resident judges should be
appointed from the republican party,
and that the Chief Justice and Judge.
at-Large should be given to the dem,
Ocratic party. The Chancellorship
the highest judicial position in the
State, and one of the greatest i'm
portance, would be most ably filled
by Justice James Pennewill. W.
believe that the Governor will frs
carry out the law in these appoint
ments, and then see to it that tn,
political side of the case receives it,
just treatment. But New Castle il
surely modest in her slate making.
Smyrna times., 1909-05-19

The Wilmington Evening Journal
celebrated its 21st anniversary yester-
day with a splendid publication. The
success that has come to this paper
since it was taken over by the present
management has been nothing short
of phenomenal and it is with little
pride that we refer to the Smyrna
talent on that paper. The editor,
Albert W. Cummins and the business
manager, Gilbert S. Jones are both
Smyrna boys and much of the success
of the paper has been due to theil
efforts. We congratulate the Journal
and wish it continued success.
Smyrna times., 1909-05-19

1t is beginning to look like Fed
eral Building for Smyrna. We have
the assurance of our repres entatives
in Congress to do all they can for
US. In the meantime our citizens
should not rest easy and take things
for granted. Agitate and work for
it. The bill may fall into commit
tee hands and there be the end of it.
Keep everlastingly at it. and when
Congress convenes next December,
let us send a special delegation to
Washington to lobby it through. We
will get it all the sooner if we show
an interest.
