D|APEPS|N
REGULATES STOMACH
TIME IT IN FIVE MINUTES GAS,
souRNEss AND INDIGESTION is
GONE.

Do some foo0s yol eat hit back
taste good, but work badly; ferment
into stubborn Jumps and cause a
sick, sour, gassy stomach? Now, Mr..
or Mrs. Dyspeptic, jot this down:
Pape's Diapepsin digests everything,
leaving nothing to sour and upset
you. There never vas anything so
safely quick, 50 certainly effective.
No difference how badly your stom-
ach is dlsordered you will get happy
relief in five minutes, but what
pleases you most is that it strength
ems and regulates your stomach so
you can eat your fayorite foods with
out fear.
Most remedies give you relief
sometimes-they are slow, but not
sure. Diapepsin is quick, positive and
puts your stomach in a healthy con-
dition so the misery won't come bat d.
You feel different as soon as Dia-
pepsin comes in contact with the
tomach-dlstress just vanishes-
your stomach gets sweet, no gases,
no belching, no eructations Of undi-
gested food, your head clears and
you feel fine.
Go now, make the best investment
you ever made by getting a large
fifty-cent case of Papes' Diapepsin
from any drug store. You realize in
five minutes how needless it is to
suffer from Indigestion, dyspepsia or
any stomach disorder.

SENATE SWORN IN
|MPEACHM' 7 COURT
CHIEF JUSTICE HAYES ADMINS
TIERS OATH TO MEMBERS OF
JURY IN THE TRIALS.

The articles of impeachment pre-
pared by the house of representatives.
against State Auditor Leo Meyer and
state Printer Giles w. Farris were
formally pres:nted to the senate on
Thursday afternoon and for the first
time Ia the history of Oklahoma the
state senate was sworn in as a court
Of impeachment with Chief Justice
Samuel w. Hayes of the supreme
court officiating.
In the absence OF any establishe
rules governing the procedure in i'm
Ipeachment cases the precedent es-
ltablished by the United States
senate in the impeachment OF
President Andrew Johnson was fol-
lowed in the preliminary steps that
have been taken and set OF rules
to govern further proceedings will be
reported by the committee on rules
of the senate some time Friday. These
rules will first be acted upon by the
senate as legislative body and then
accepted by the senate as a court ol
Impeachment.
The action so far taken by the
senate deals only with the preliml
naries and it probably will be sew
eral days before the real trial of the
two accused officials Is started. The
case against Meyer probably will be
tried first. No date on which the
