NOT ONLY INDIGESTION AND GAS
BUT ALL STOMACH DISTRESS GOES

Sick Headache, Biliousness, Constipa-
ton, Gripping, etc. Your case is no
different-you are a stomach suffer-
er, though you may call it by some
other name; your real and only trou-
BILE is that which you eat does not di-
gest, but quickly ferments and sours,
producing almost any unhealthy con-
dition.
A case of Pape's Piapepsin will cost
fifty cents at any Pharmacy here, and
will convince any stomach sufferer
five minutes after taking a single
dose that Fermentation and Sour
Stomach is causing the misery of In
digestion.
No matter if you call your trouble
Catarrh of the Stomach, Nervousness
or Gastritis, or by any other name
always remember that a certain cure
is waiting at any drug store the mo-
ment you decide to begin its use.
Pape's Diapepsin will regulate any

if there is difficulty in breathing after
eating, erucations of sour, undigested
food and acid, heartburn, brash or a
belching of gas, you can make up your
mind that you need something to

WHERE IS PARKHURST?
No Word From County Engineer Since
Last Saturday.

County Engineer ". R. Parkhurst is
reported missing. He went to Kansas
City Saturday to buy piling for the
Willard bridge now under repair. l..
NJ Lindsay, county engineer of Wyan-
dotte county, whom he met there. has
reported to the police that the Shawnee
engineer has disappeared. 1.,se.s-s4-
Mrs. Parkhurst, accompanied by 0.
H Berry, left today for Kansas City to
search for Mr.. Parkhurst, but no word
has been received from them.
None of Parkhurst's friends or as
sociates at the county court house have
heard aught of him and do not take the
rumor seriously. He is known to have
had business at Deerfield, Kan, where
he was to consult with an engineer in
construction work there, and it is
thought likely that he went through
Topeka without stopping after finishing
his business in Kansas City.

ABANDON BASEBALL.
Report Out That Washburn Faculty
Wants to End Game.

Student baseball fans at washburn
are getting nervous. In spite of the
fact that the students have plenty of
new baseball suits and about $3.50 for
team expenses. it was rumored on the
hill this morning that the 1aculty
wanted to see baseball abandoned here.
There is probably no official warrant
for this, but the students are not anx-
ious for faculty interference on this
question according to college gossip.
It is claimed that the chances for a
fairly good ball team this spring are
encouraging. A number of new men
have appeared who are showing up
well. No captain has yet been elected.
