Among other things they contain Pep
sin and Bismuth, two of the greatest di-

They soothe the infiamed stomach, allay
pain, check heart burn and distress, help
to digest the food, and tend to quickly re-
store the stomach to it's natural, comfort

properly a portion of the District of

necessity or expediency which called for
the act of retrocession by which nearly
thirty-fve square miles of the District as
established by Washington was lost to

line was built about the year 1896 and

south end of the Aqueduct bridge. with
