FIVE MINUTE CURE
If STOMACH is BAD.
When "Pape's Diapepsin" Reaches
stomach All Indigestion, Gas
and SOurneSS Disappears.

You don't want a slow remedy
when your stomach is bad-or an un-
certain one-or a harmful one-your
stomach is too valuable; you mustn' t
injure 1T with drastic drugs.
Pape's Diapepsin Is noted for its
speed in giving relief; it's harmless
ness; its certain, unfailing action in
regulating sick, sour, gassy stomachs.
Its millions of cures in Indigestion,
dyspepsia, gastritis and other sto-
mach 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 any one should eat
something which doesn't agree with
them; If what they eat lays like lead,
ferments and sours and forms gas
causes headache, dizziness and nau-
sea, eructatiOns Of acid and undigest-
ed food-remember as soon as Pape's
Diapepsin comes in contact with the
stomach all such distress vanishes.
Its promptness, certainty and ease in
overcoming the worst stomach disor-
derS is revelation to those who try
it, adv.

TAKES OFF DANDRUFF
HAIR STOPS FALLING
Girls! Try This! Makes Hair Thick,
Glossy, Fluffy, Beautiful-No
More Itching Scalp.

Within ten minutes after an appli-
cation OF Danderine you cannot find a
single trace of dandruff or falling
hair and your scalp will not itch, but
what will please You most will be af-
ter few weeks use, when you see
new hair, fine and downy at first
yes-but really new hair-growing
all over the scalp.
A little Danderine Immediately
doubles the beauty of your hair. No
difference how dull, faded, brittle
and scraggy, just moisten cloth with
Danderine and carefully draw 1T
through your hair, taking one small
strand at time. The effect is amaz-
ng-your hair will be light, fluffy
and wavy, and have an appearance of
abundance; an incompatible lustre,
softness and luXuriance.
Get 25-cent bottle of Knowlton's s
Danderine from any drug store or
toilet counter, and prove that your
hair is as pretty and soft as any
that it has been neglected or injured
by careless treatment--that's all
you surely can have beautiful hair
and lots of it if you will just try lit
tie Dnderine. adv.

The Talent Plan for Children.

'The greatest good will come to

something to earn the money which
they contribute" says Rev. l.. John

Of emergency in our work the super
tendent or teacher furnish as a gift
or loan to each child who Is willing
to use, "talent"-about ten cents
to be invested and the proceeds given
as his Offering on missionary day. On
one occasion l gave such talent" to
a small group Of children in a mis-
sionary society. In few weeks they
brought back missionary Offering of
nearly $50. One little girl invested
her money in materials and got her
mother to make hot rolls. She took
orders from the neighbors al the
market price. Her mother filled the
orders and she delivered the rolls.
She made over $40 for her Offering.
This plan has been often tried
with most gratifying results. Give
out the talents" Immediately SO as
to allow as much time as possible be-
fore the twelfth Of April. You will
be pleased with the result. The chill
dren will be Influenced toward a mis-
sionary spirit, and the cause will be

Reading out of the book Of eXpe-
riences, Rev. Rockwell Clancy, of
Muttra, tells of the problems faced
in India by practical educators:
1T Is generally known" he says,
that this country is densely igno-
rant. But unless one has worked
right among the people, it is difficult
to understand the degrading ef-
fects of centuries Of heathenism. The
masses are little better than slaves
to the better castles. Their poverty
is appalling. The failure Of a single
harvest means famine, as 95 out of
every 100 people live in mud vii
lages and are cutlivators, most of
them being servants Of the native
landlords. Very few can read. The
people are SO poor that even the lit
tie boys and girls have to help eafn
the living for the family, and there
is usually little time or inclination
for education.
The government is spending $44O,-
900 a year for primary education
here in the northwest provinces, and
within the next five years is planning
to spend $1,766,0OO a year, so that
primary education may be placed
within reach Of every village boy.
The masses are too poor to take ad-
vantage Of it. Our Christians, for
the most part, belong to the depress-
ed classes-the "untOuchable," as
they are called-and the government
schools are practically closed to them
because Of CASTE"
