in his hearthstone-he was devoted to
his household He was generous, cour-

Advice Concerning Stomach Troubles
and How to Remedy Them.

Do not neglect indigestion which
leads to all sorts of ills and compli-
cations. An eminent doctor once
said that ninety-five per cent of all
the ills of the human body have
their origin in a disordered stomach.
A physician who made a speciality
CT stomach troubles, particularly
dyspepsia, after years of study per-
fected the formula from which Rex
all Dyspepsia Tablets are made.
Our experience with Rexall Dys-
pepsia Tablets leads us to believe
them to be the greatest remedy
known for the relief of acute indi-
gestion and chronic dyspepsia. Their
ingredients are soothing and heal
ing to the inflamed membranes of
the stomach. They are rich in pep
sin, one of the greatest digestive
aids known to medicine. The relief
they afford is almost immediate.
Their use with persistency and regu-
larity for short time brings about
a cessation of the pains caused by
stomach disorders.
Rexall Dyspepsia Tablets will in
re healthy appetite, aid digestion
and promote nutrition. AS evidence
of our sincere faith in Rexall Dys-
pepsia Tablets, we ask you to try
them at our risk. If they do not
give you entire satisfaction, We will
return you the money you paid us
for them, without ques ton or form
ality. The come in three sizes, pri-
ces 20 cents, so cents and $1.00.

Dear Sir:-Yours of 18th inst to
hand, and what you say noted. But
| can not see the similarity between
lngersoll and the Republican party
and Payne and Revolutionary party,
and Herr Bebel and the Socialist
party. The Socialist party is using
Bebel's writings, or book, where he
advocates Free Love, as a propa-
ganda document. And so far as I
have been able to learn neither the
Republican party or Revolutionary
party ever used Ingersoll or Payne's
writings on Atheism or infidelity as
propaganda. I can not see why the
Socialists are not assuming to be
sponsor for the Free Love doctrine
Ii they are not, perhaps some of their
other propaganda documents would
be disowned by large number of
Socialists. I think it would be more
consistent to cease to use the De-
Leon-Bebel book as a propaganda, or
else defend it's teachings through the
Socialist press.
JESSE L. SWANGO.
Rt 5, Miami, Ok.
P. S.-Suppose that the capitalist
Congressman wife, who wrote a
book a few years ago advocating Free
Love, was to be so influential as to
cause the Republican or Democratic
campaign committee to recommend it
and publish it for sale, distribution,
or otherwise, as the Socialists do
Bebel's and other pamphlets Chat
are, in the sincere judgment of many
people, advocating Free Love-?
Then we would call them Free Love
advocates, would we not?

Hark to the wall of millions
To the cry of grief and woe!
IT'S the groan of my dying victims
AS they writhe in the pit below.
List to the awful cadence
The siren song of souls!
That lures the myriad mortals
Down to my hellish goals
I'm the foe of right and Justice
[ pierce the heart with pain!
Like a serpent's tongue, poison
The lObes of the human brain.
| snatch from mothers bosom
The child of her love and prayers!
| laugh at her scalding tear-drops,
And rejoice in the grief she bears.
I'm the author of destruction
I'm the way of crime and sin!
| point to the gates of horror
| feast on the souls of men.
Neither love, nor peace, nor mercy
Fer in my palace dwell!
But hatred, war and murder
Reek in my flames of He'll.
I'm wicked, o how wicked!-
A lover of sin and lies!-
l crush the hearts of mothers!-
I'm the Devil in disguise!

BeDel DOCK. 1t occurred this way:
the chief of the local Socialists de-
nounced you as liar for your fierce
quotations from Bebel's book. I
asked him to furnish the Bebel book
so we could see, and he would not
do it. Then it occurred to me to
write headquarters at short range.

Editor appeal to Reason.
Dear Sir:-I am moved by a spirit
OF information to ask you, why YOU
do not reply to Watson's challenge
in his Magazine regarding Socialism?
| have been reader of your paper
for four years. The attempts made
to suppress the Appeal by the postal
department was resented by me To-
cally. [ prodded The Outlook maya
zine about 'The Alton Steal.' I actu-
ally circulated Warren's speech be-
fore Judge PLATE Pollock, and your
attack upon the Federal judges must
be based upon facts. These things
were investigated by me through
your paper. And that investigation
was caused by statement you made
to me in letter following a request
for sample copies of Appeal: ''you
need to know what Socialism is to be
with us or oppose us, as your intelli-
gence may direct" or words to that
effect. Now if Mr.. Watson is wrong
about it, from a Socialist wedding, or
women under Socialism, or those
from Herr Bebel's book, or Karl
Marx, why do you not say so in the
press or Appeal? You should not
have to be smoked out, like Roosevelt
was. Buncombe is hole in the
ground. Give us the facts from a
Socialist; facts stand as a monu-
ment of truth to you or Mr.. Watson,
whichever produces them. Local So
cialists say Watson is liar. I have
challenged them to produce the book
from which he has quoted I now
appeal to you in a spirit of candor
and fairness. I have known of Wav-
land since the days of "The Coming
Nation" in fact read it some. have
known of Debs since the Pullman
strike, I admired his pluck and cour-
age then. I can now feel warm,
soft beat of my heart in sympathy
for him for the injustices he was
forced to bear in that just struggle
1t seems to me the hour of silence
has passed. 1t behooves you to de-
fend yourselves upon those points
challenged.
Fraternally yours,
JESSE L. SWANGO.
Rt. 5, Miami, Ok.
Dear Comrade Swango:- The Ap-
peal has repeatedly replied to the
nonsensical charges that Socialism
means free love. 1t does not care to
dignity Watson by replying to libel
sent out by a man who really knows
better. That stuff is ceasing to be
urged by decent people, and the Ap-
peal will reply to it only as it seems
to come from an honest seeker. Be-
cause we infer you are such we say
this to you. The mere fact that some
Socialist in the past may have been
an atheist or even free lover proves
nothing, as under Socialism the
whole people would rule. AS we'll
say the Republican party is atheistic
because Ingersoll was, or that the
Revolutionists were deists because
Payne was. Payne was not a bad
man by any means, nor was Ingorsoll,
for that matter; and there have been
