lnLO new SOIL ana nc plant Will grow
and thrive. Just o the self-centered
mind must break tut of it, shell Of
self and forget itself in working, fight
ing, striving for something worth
while.
The dominating instinct in man is
fear and this is why self-contemp1a-
ton Is dangerous. There are many
store rooms in the basement of mans
consciousness, commonly known as
the sub-conscious mind, and in these
dark and forgotten corners many
strange things are stored, only wait
ing for the opportunity whe n they
may come forth to puzzle and con-
found us.
There is nothing mysterious or ter
rible about the subconscious phenom-
ena If, with a full knowledge of the
laws Of the universe, of which we are
a part, we frankly consider ourselves
a link in the chain OF life extending
from an incomprehensib bly, remote past
to an equally incomprehensible and re-
mote future.
We deem it not at all strange, mere
ly because we happen to be familiar
with the fact, that there are handed
down to US strong memories out of the
remote past in the form of striking re-
semblances to a grandparent, or to
a great-grandparent, or to one even
still more remote. All inherited traits
are but cell memories; then why
strange or mysterious that there should
be handed down to US in the same way
and from the same source out Of that
misty past, dim memories, vague and
nebular but none the less memories,
of past long left behind in the ad-
vancing consciousness of the race?
In these latent Impressions will be
found the key to the very pitiful truth
that the dominant impression in the
mind of man is that Of fear, and that
this is undoubtedly the source Of those
so-called causeless terrors Of early
childhood coming at a period before
terror should be known, and in later
years coming to US so furtively in the
night and in all weakened conditions
due to illness, to sudden surprise or
to relaxation from any cause, a fear
impossible to overcome by any reason
ing because it was burned into our
sympathetic nervous systems back in
the past when devils lurked behind
every leaf and man was in constant
terror of the unknown.
With the dawn of a more intelligent
comprehension of the universe there
has come an appreciation that natures
are so vast and contain SO
many complex and never to be under
stood forces that balance and counter
balance each other, that ones conf
dence in ones self is always in inverse
to ones knowledge of the
laws involved. Hence, the most intel
ligent physician uses the least medi-
cine because he realizes more keenly
than my one else the completely of
the phenomena with which he has to
deal and the extent to which conc1u-
sions are likely to be vitiated by I'M
known factors in the problem. And
today. throughout the world, the issue

LESS DYSPEPSIA NOW
HERE'S THE REASON

The fact that there is less dyspepsia
and indigestion in this community than
there used to be is largely, we believe,
due to the extensive use of Rexall
Dyspepsia Tablets, hundreds of pack
ages of which we have sold. No won
der we have faith in them. No wonder
we are willing to offer them to you
for trial entirely at our risk.
Among other things, they contain
Pepsin and Bismuth, two OF the great.
est digestive aids known to medical
science. They soothe the infiametl
stomach, allay pain, check heartburn
and distress, help to digest the food,
and tend to quickly restore the stom-
ach to it's natural, comfortable, healthy
state.
There is no red tape about our guar
antee. 1t means just what it says.
Wen ask you no questions. Your word
is enough for US. If Rexall Dyspepsia
Tablets don't restore your stomach to
health and make your digestion easy
and comfortable. we want YOU to come
back Tor your money. They are sold
only at the 1000 Rexall Stores, and in
this town only by US. Three sizes, 25c,
Doc and $l.00.-B. s. Beall Drug Store,
