FIVE MINllTE: CURF
IF STOMACH IS RAD
"PAPE'S DlAPEPSlN" is QUICKEST,
SUREST INDIGESTION
CURE KNOWN.

You don't want a slow remedy when
YOUR stomach is bad-or an uncertain
one-or a harmful one--your stomach
is too valuable; you mustn't injure
it with drastic drugs.
Pape's Diapepsin is noted for its
speed in giving relief; its harmless
ness: it's certain unfailing action in
regulating sick, sour, gassy stomachs
Its millions of cures in indigestion
dyspepsia, gastritis and other stomach
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; Il
what they eat lays like lead, ferment'
and sours and forms gas; causes head
ache, dizziness and nausea; eructa
tions of acid and undigested food
remember as soon as Pape's Diapepsir
comes in contact with the stomach al
such distress vanishes. Its prompt
ness, certainty and ease in overcoming
the worst stomach disorders is a rev
elation to those who try it.

COCK OF Walk
gets BLACK EYE
POULTRY DEALERS DECLARE FOR
ELIMINATION OF THE
ROOSTER.

Nashville, Oct. 1O.-Declaring that
the presence of roosters in the barn
yards causes eggs to become fertile
and thus easily spoil, the Southern
Poultry and Egg Shippers association,
in session at the Hermitage Hotel,
calls on the governors of Tennessee
and Kentucky to set aside the third
Saturday in May, 1914, as Rooster
Day." and pledge themselves to pay
the same prices for ROSTERS as they
do for hens. 1t is claimed that roost-
ers cause the loss of millions of dol
lars of eggs in Tennessee alone, and if
the surplus cocks Of the barnyards
can be disposed of the egg crop Will
be increased fully twenty-five per cent.
1t was stated that ROSTERS cause fer
tile eggs that spoil in twentyfour
hours, while a non-fertile egg will live
in perfect condition fully week. The
dealers expect to lose heavily by pay
ing the same price for ROSTERS as
they do for hens but the production
of good eggs is expected to increase
after the roosters are disposed of.

THE LIONS RIDE.

Right swiftly and right royalty this
night he means to ride.
BY the sedgy brink, where the wild
herds drink, close couches the
grim chief;
The trembling sycamore above whisp
ers with every leaf
At evening, on the Table Mount. when
we can see no more
The changeful play of signals gay
when the gloom is speckled DER
With kraal fires; when the Caffre
wends home through the lone
karoo
When the boshbok in the thicket
sleeps, and by the stream the gnu;
Then bend your gaze across the waste
what see ye? The giraffe.
Majestic, stalks toward the lagoon, the
turbid lymph to quaff;
With outstretched neck and tongue
adjust, he kneels him down to cool
His hot thirst with welcome draught
from the foul and brackish pool.

lion sits astride
Upon this giant coursers back, Did
ever king so ride?
Had ever king a steed so rare, capari-
sons OF state
To match the dappled skin whereon
that rider sits elate?
In the muscles of the neck his teeth
are plunged with ravenous greed !;
His tawny name is tossing round the
withers of his steed
Up leaping with hollow yell of an
guish and surprise,
Away, away, in wild dismay, the cam
elopard flies.
His feet have wings, see how he
springs across the moonlit plain!
As from their sockets they would
burst, his glaring eyeballs strain
In thick black streams of purlins
blood, full fast his life is fleeing
The stiffness of the desert hears his
hearts tumulous beating.
Like the cloud that, throug the wild
erness the path of Israel traced
Like. an airy phantom, dull and wan

From the sandy sea uprising, as the
waterspout from ocean,
A whirling cloud of dust keeps pace

vulture whirls on high;
Below, the terror of the fold, the pan

And hyenas foul, round graves that

quake with fear the while
With claws of steel he tears piecemeal

On! On! no pause, no rest, giraffe,
while life and strength remain!
The steed by such a rider backed may
madly plunge in vain.
Keeling upon the deserts verge, he

Ore Madagascar, eastward far, faint
