The Woman ON the Frontier.

Secretary Lane, OF the interior department
SAYS after a tour of the West that the main
duty of the federal land department is to help
he people to make homes, and II we can
tighten their burden the government of the
United States will suffer not at all" He says
he found thousands Of self-sacrihcns men and
women displaying real heroism and forttude
in their efforts to build up homesteads and pro-
mote community life was ever shown on the
field of battle Far from the railroads and
amid many difficulties they are building homes

their day 1t Is appropriate that a congressman's
denuncation of the so-caled Slit skirt a
national scandal" should be hurled forth at
this time of the year.
Like the cabbage snake and the kissing bug

needs the advertising appears in indecent
costume and is promptly arrested, But the slit
in the skirt of the ordinarily well conducted
woman Is "rudimentary' like the muscles that
wag the human ear. or were designed to wag it
before screens and fly paper were invented, and
not all shocking.
That the dress of women OF the period is
indecent is standing protest Of human beings
of a certain type. 1t has always been Ac
cording to this class. The world has always
been headed for the bow-wows result of
it, But the world, and the women do not seem
be worse than they were a good while ago

BANISH INDIGESTION
With PHOSPHO- -PEPSIN

Stomach trouble manifests itself in
several ways-a gnawing or burning
sensation in region of stomach. belch-
ing up of large quantities of gas, indi-
eating that the food is undergoing
putrefaction instead of digestion, PAL
pitation of the heart, lack of ambition.
impaired appetite-al are symptoms
of indigestion, and unless given proper
attention frequently lead to chronic
dyspepsia.
Phospho-Pepsin is a perfectly bal
anced combination of elements neees-
sary to produce a healthy. normal con-
dition in the digestive tract. 1t is in
tablet form, easy to take. and readily
assimilated by the gastric juices. It
goes right to the seat of trouble-the
stomach and large intestine-and gem
tly stimulates them so they can prop
erly perform their work. Phospho-
Pepsin contains the greatest elements
known to science for indigestion and
for restoring complete health to the ems
tire digestive tract.
Phospho- Pepsin is positive in its ac-
tion and certain in results. James
oDonnell and other druggists sell 1t
