Dyspepsia Now
---Here'S The Reason
No Red Tape About Rexall Dys-
pepsia Tablets-Guarantee of
Sure Cure.

In 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 RECALLS
Dyspepsia Tablets, hundreds of pack
ages of which we have sold. No wonder
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 greatest
digestive aids known to medical science.
They soothe the inhamed stomach,
allay pain, check heartburn and distress,
help to digest the food, and tend to
quickly restore the stomach to its
natural, comfortable, healthy state.
There is 20 red tape about our guar
antee, 1t means just what it says.
Well ask yourno 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 for your money, They are sold
only at the 1000 Rexall Stores, aud in
this town only by us. Three sizes. 25c,

ing, to postpone decisions in the rate
increase cases until the value of the
properties can be known. -
No one objects to the railroads
making very generous, or even high
rate, of interest on money actually
invested, with plenty of room to pay
high wages to us workers.
What the public objects to is to
be compelled to pay excessive freight
and passenger rates simply in order
that the railroads may be permitted
to pay dividends on millions and mil
lions of dollars of railroad capitali-
zation which does not represent
money invested but only thin blue
air. But continual repetition by the
railroads of their cry that if they
are not permitted to make more
money they will go to the dogs,
seems to have it's hypnotic effect.
Perhaps the commission does not de-
sire to take the responsibility of
rishing the industrial q upheaval
which the railroads predict will fol-
low a refusal Of their request. Their

Not a few believe the railroads
will be granted an increase perhaps
not the entire five per cent that they
ask, but enough of an increase, say
8 1-2 per cent, to satisfy them and
appear to the public as a reasonable
compromise.
1t is also und erstood that the COM
mission will not sanction any spe-
cific increase adopted by the roads
as the result of this permission. The
reasonableness of any increased rate
will still be open to- Investigation

How Sun Repel. Comets Tails,

A new theory to explain the tails Of
comets is advanced by the French
physicist, M. Houllevigue, in the Revue
Scientidque. It is natural to suppose,
he says, that the incandescent nucleus
of comet is throwing out electrons.
into the extremely rarefied atmosphere
that surrounds 1t. The observations
Of George Ellery Hale. the American
astronomer, prove that the sun be-
HAYES like negatively electrified
body. Therefore he repels electrons.
which are negatively electrified bodies.
These particles so repelled would be
driven to that side Ct the comet which
Is farthest from the sun, and by con-
tact with the molecules of the gaseous
and rarefied atmosphere would pro.
duce just the luminous appearance
that we call comets tail.
Every comets tail always extends,
away from the sun. Arrhenius, the
Swedish astronomer, believed that the
particles Of the tail were repealed BY
the light of the sun.
