The Law and Order Society held its
quarterly meeting in the Office Of Caleb

tine business was transacted. Tho mat
ter of the dances at the midway during
the fair week and the selling OF intoNi-
eating liquor by two negroes at the
same time we're discussed by the mem
hers present at the meeting. Both sub
ieets we're thoroughly discussed but as
fthe members considered that the mat
ter was past ari would likely not hap
pen again they decided to allow them to
remain closed incidents.
In the liquor cases it was thought
that action was TO have been taken by
the government against one of the men,
but il was learned that the man has
since taken out government license
which protects HIM from prosecution.

FIVE MINUTE CURE
If STOMACH is BAD
When "Pape's Diapepsin" reaches
stomach all Indigestion, Gas and
Sourness disappears.

You don't want a slow remedy when
your stomach is bad-or an uncertain
one-or harmful one-your stomach
is too valuable; you mustn't injure it
with drastic drugs.
Pape's Diapepsin is noted for it's
speed in giving relief; its harmless
ness; its certain unfailing action in
regulating sick, sour, gassy stomachs.
Its millions of cures in indigestion,
dyspepsia, gastritis and other stom-
ach trouble has made it famous the
world over.
Keep this perfect stomach doctor in
your home-keep it handy-get a
large fifty-cent case from any drug
store and then if anyone should eat
something which doesn't agree with
them; if what they eat lies like lead,
ferments and sours and forms gas;
causes headache, dizziness and nau-
sea; eructations of acid and undigest-
ed food-remember as soon as Pa
pes Diapepsin comes in contact with
the stomach all such distress vanishes.
It's promptness, certainty and ease in
overcoming the worst stomach disor-
