IF STOMACH IS BAD
"Pape's Diapepsin," is Quickest, Sur

You don't want slow remedy
when your stomach is bad-or an un'

speed in giving relief; its harmless
ness; its certain unfailing action in
regulating sick, sour, gassy stomachs.
It's millions of cures in indigestion

comes in contact with the stomach,
all such distress vanishes. Its prompt

TO HONOR FATHER At LAST
Movement Under Way to Place Neg.
lected Parent on Pedestal and
Strew Roses at His Feet.

At last poor old father Is to have his
day. For these many moons we have
been singing the praises of mother
and deservedly-andt telling of what
dreary world 1t would be without her,
and all the while father has been
standing around as unnoticed and as
neglected as the bridegroom at the
wedding. He has been looked upon. or
rather tolerated, as q necessary evil.
Indeed, he has been spoken OF. in some
quarters at least, In terms Of reproach
and derision. We all remember the
beautiful ballad which blatantly called
attention to the fact that everybody
toiled but poor old dad. The refrain
of that song was taken up everywhere.
and the enthusiasm with which It was
sung by all sorts and conditions OF
people would lead one to suspect that
the author had made remarkable dis
covery. which he was only too glad to
share with the world.
Now all this is to be changed and
dad is to be placed on a pedestal and
flowers laid at his unworthy feet and
verses recited in his honor. The red
rose has been selected as an appropri-
ate emblem for father, and on one day
In the year everybody-or nearly ev-
erybody-is to wear that flower in or
der to let the world know that, in
spite Of all his faults, they dearly love
the old man. This just and proper
Ill.
coming, but now that 1t is at hand
there seems to be disposition to do
Il with a whole-heartedness that will
atone for past neglect. The only one
who will not quite understand 1t will
be dear old dad himself He will do as
le is told, Of course, but we venture to
say that the movement is going to
make father scratch his head in won
der, If not in delight.
