CAUSE FOR ALARM
Loss Of Appetite or Distress After Eat
ing q Symptom that Should
not Be Disreaarced

Appetite is just natural desire for
food. Loss of appetite or stoDlacn dis
| tress after eating Indicate indigestion
or dyspepsia. Overeatng is Il habit
very dangerous TO a persons good
general health.
1t is not what you eat but what
you digest and assimiate that does
you good. Some Of the strongest,
heaviest and healthiest persons are
moderate eaters.
There is nothing that will cause
more trouble than disordered stom-
ach, and many people daily contract
serious maladies simply through dis.
regard or abuse of the stomach.
We urge all in Ell Centre who suf.
fer from any stomach arrangement,
indigestion or dyspepsia, whether
acute or chronic, to try Rexall Dys-
pepsia Tablets, with the distinct un-
derstanding that we will refund their
money without question or fOrmality,
II after reasonable use of this med
iCine they are not perfectly satisfied
with the results. We recommend them
TO our customers every day, and have
yet to hear of any one who has not
been benefited by them. We honestly
believe them to be without equal They
give very prompt relief, aiding to neu-
tralize the gastric juices, strengthen
the digestive organs, to regulate the
bowels, and thus to promote perfect
nutrition and eradicate all unhealthy
symptoms.
We urge you to try % cent box
of Rexall Dyspepsia Tablets, which
gives 10 days treatment. At the end
of that time your money will be re-
turned if you are not satisfied. Of
course, in chronic cases, length of
treatment varies. For such cases, we
have two larger sizes, which sell for
80 cents and $1.00. Remember you
can obtain Rexall Remedies in this
community only at our store-the Rex

EVANGELIST ADDRESSES THE
BIG N00N-T|ME MEETING
Presents Four Reasons Why Men
Should Be Ready to Die-Foltow
These and Be- Ready to Live

The union revival now is the chief
topic of conversation in this city Men
and women are discussing religion on
every hand, and many are taking an
open stand for Christ.
At today's noon meeting Mr.. Brown
preached. He said he believed that
God deals with the individuals as with
nations. He then described how God
had called TO Israel through his vari-
Gus dispensatiOns of innocence, con-
science, authority, promise, law-how
He had done all He could to redeem
that people but they would not. So
He calls the individual through the
empty chair at the table, the little
shoe laid away in the bureau drawer,
the death OF some loved one msaved
OF the passing of saint to glory,
through showers of blessings, through
dark adversely. He appeals to us with
beauty and goodness, He thunders at
ug with storm and earthquake and fire
and flood But we will not heed.
Then there is nothing left for Him
to do but to say to us, prepare to
meet thy God"
Mr. Brown said it was not his way
to eXhCrt people to prepare to die.
He preached the doctrine of prepara-
tiOn 70 live. Prepare to meet thy God
and then YOU are ready to live. But
when people will not hear and heed
that teaching they must be admon-
ished in another way.
He gave four reasons why brave,
intelligent people should prepare to

HISTORIC FIRES.
The Most FatefuI Of All, Perhaps, Wa:
the Burning Of Moscow.

he Most r ateful or All, perhaps, was
the Burning Of Moscow.
A list of great cities burned would
be list Of nearly all the great capi-
tails Of the world. Persepolis. the
splendid residence of long series of
rulers whose tributary provinces ex-
tended from the Indus to the Helles-
pont. was burned. with all its pal
aces and temples. Babylon and Car
thage were so utterly destroyed that
their. very location has become mat
ter Of doubt. Rome was burned eight
times. Jerusalem four times. and.
though they rose from their ashes
The second temple is not like the first.
Athens, Syracuse, Bagdad, Alexan.
dria and Antioch now exhibit only a
shadow Of their former grandeur. The
Phoenicians. like the Spartans and AS
syrians. disappeared with the ruin Of
their capitals. but the most fateful
conflagration recorded in the history
of the world is perhaps that of Mos
COW.
'"Tbey talk as if the fate of Europe
had been decided at Waterloo" says
De Bourienne in his memoirs of the
first empire. "If Napoleon had beaten
Wellington and Blucher a dozen times
it could not have retrieved the reverses
Of the three preceding years. The
truth is that the French Caesar and
his fortune We're ruined by the burn
ing Of Moscow That city was the fu-
neral pile of the great natiOn."-EX

meet God. He used the words brave
and intelligent advisedly, because it is
both brave and intelligent to concern
ones self about ones soul.
We should make definite and final
and perpetual preparation now, at
once, to stand in the presence of God.
FirSt-BecauSe sooner or later We
shall all stand there. Church men,
bership will not save us. Morality and
honesty are not Christianity. IF your
meeting with God should take place
before the rising sun of tomorrow are
you ready? Are you paid up and
prayed up and lived up so that you
are ready and willing to meet your
God?"
SecOnd.-BecauSe, at fearful cost on
Calvary'S cross, Christ has prepared q
way for you to get ready.
Third-Because the Bible teaches
that it is a fearful thing to stand in
the presence of God unprepared All
atheists, agnostics, Christians, inf
dels-all agree on one part of one
verse in the Bible-''It is appointed
unto man once to die" Do you be-
lieve in the balance of that verse
After death, the Judgment" Christ
Sald, verify, verify, | say unto you
the hour cometh when all in their
graves shall hear my voice and come
forth" Christ's life and teachings say
to us, i'll effect: This side of the
grave am your friend and champion;
| can help YOU | can save you. Be
yond the grave | am helpless. God
deals with you there"
Fourth-Because in order to live
YOU must be prepared to die-prepared
TO meet thy God.
