INDIGESTION, GAS,
DYSPEPSIA GONE
"Pape's Diapepsin" fixes sick,
sour, gassy stomachs in
five minutes.

Wonder what upset your stomach
which portion of the food did the
damage-do you? Well, don't bother.
If your stomach Is in a revolt; If
sour, gassy and upset, and what you
just ate has fermented into stubborn
Jumps; head dizzy and aches; belch
gases and acids and eructate undi-
gested food; breath foul, tongue coat
ed--just take a little Pape's Diapepsin
and in five minutes you wonder what
became of the indigestion and dis
tress.
Millions of men and women today
know that it is needless to have a
bad stomach. A little Diapepsin oc-
casionally keeps this delicate organ
regulated and they eat their favorite
foods without fear.
If your stomach doesn't take care
of your liberal limit without rebel
lion; if your food is a damage instead
of a help. remember the quickest.
surest, most harmless relief is Pape's
Diapepsin, which costs only fifty cents
for large case at drug stores It's
truly wonderful-it digests food and
sets things straight so gently and
easily that it is really astonishing.
Please for your sake. don't go on
and on with a weak, disordered stom-
ach; it's so unnecessary.

Very few persons have been in the
new Administration Building, the in
terror of which is now in the hands
of the painters and educators, and
an extremely small number have seen
the Supreme Court room, which. it is
predicted, will be the handsomest in
the south, says the Raleigh Times,
This room is SO by so feet, it's ceiling
being 80 feet above the tiled floor. The
decorations of the ceiling are highly
artistic They are in what is known
as the renaissance style, the |
being what is known as cafe au lait
in other words, coffee with cream.
IN the pannels will be eagles and
figures, three-fourth life-size, will
support the footings Of the columns
below the arch of the ceiling. These
figures are male except at the angles,
where there is one of each sex. All
the decorators are experts from New
York and they find it warm work on
the lofty scaffolds. Everything re-
quires great care. There are "A OF
the figures referred to, and these are
an impressive and attractive part OF

titioner will have a surplus of be-
tween 5000 and 10000 horsepower
Lot required to operate the interurban

6. The petitioner, before the com
mencement of the condemnation pro-
ceedings made a reasonable effort to

purchase of the lands in question and
the right to overflow said lands.

ically renew themselves at their ex-
piration, thus putting the contracts

is not feasible or practicable to de-
velop either of said properties.

The City Manager Plan a Success at
StauntOn, Virginia.

0taunUOMS virginia.
A Staunton, Virginia, dispatch saws:
After a trial that rs extended over
a period of three years. the people of
Staunton are almost a unit on the
proposition that the Staunton plan of
city government is not only great
success but the best plan of munich
pal government that has ever been
devised.
Staunton is a city of $4,000 inhab-
itants. Before 1910 it's affairs were
administered by a city council and a
mayor. 1t is forbidden by law to
abolish these institutions, but it de-
cided to hire a general anage an
expert in municipl affairs, to direct
its business. 1t chose S. d. Holsing-
er, a practical engineer. During the
past three years Holsinger, who is
under bond has directed the various
departments. has had charge of city
improvements and purchashed sup
plies. The mayor acts in conjunction
with Holsinger, the general
and the city council acts as a safety
valve for them. The scheme has
worked beautifully.
I ID pOSSlU1S JudC the character OF
Staunton's general manager has had
much to do with the success of the
system here. Some notion of Holsing-
er and his methods bay be gained
from his axioms on city government.
Here they are:
City business should be transacted
with the same financial insight as
that required in the conduct of a pri-
vate corporation.
Contracts for supplies should be
awarded to the lowest bids for the
best material without favor or recog-
milton of political pull"
Merit must rule in the appoint
ment of chiefs of departments-the
best man for the job to get the place.
Petty ~animosities are t o be dis
couraged and complete harmony de-
manded between departments.
Reports of finances and recon-
mendations should be submitted to
an auditing committee every month.
Better salaries should be paid city
employees, there should be more pub
lie improvements and greater school
facilities. -.
Economy must rule in everything
so that the tax rate may be lowered
and the property values increased
by eason of municipal government"

LiUuOr Drinking.

Saloons have now been banished
from one-half of the population and

The July Review of Reviews shows
that in 1868 there were $4,000. 900 peo-
pie living in territory where the
drink traffic had been outlaWed; IN
1900 the number had increased to 49,
600, 900, and in 1908 the number had
doubled to 5000, 900, and today there
at 46.O29, $50 persons or a fraction
over one half of the population of the
country living in no-license territory.
