How a dyspeptic
can regain appetite

"A considerable variety Of foods and
substantial meals are essential to Wig
orous health. But, Of course, you can
not eat substantial meals If you can
not digest them. # you are dyspep-
tic, il good meal causes distress.
belching. bloating, sour stomach, etc..
you may be practically certain that
your digestion is ini.rferei with by
an excess of acid in the digestive fluid
secreted by the stomach. There is only
one way-a very simple one-to over
come such disorder. That Is to take
something to neutralize the excess acid.
For that purpose nothing equals pure
bisurated magnesia. A teaspoonful
dissolved in q quarter Of glass of
water and taken after each meal will
make a hearty eater out of most any
dyspeptic. The bisurated magnesia.
which you can get from any druggist,
Is pleasant to take, gives immediate
relief, and is absolutely harmless. AS
magnesia comes in several forms for
several different purposes you should
be sure and get bisuratsd magnesia."

HORNED RABBITS IN TEXAS.
Al Least That's The Testimony Q

Al Least That's The Testimony Of
Those Who Saw Ater's Game Bag.
A. Ater, Of Roscoe. Tex, has found
something rev under the sun. West
Texas is noted for growing horns ana
thorns Nearly everything that grows
there has a horn, thorn or singer.
But never until now did any one ever
hear of a timid, modest little, molly
cottontail with horns. Mr.. Alter killed
one Of these little animals a few days
ago, and to his amazement found 8
nice pair Of horns, about two inches
long protruding from the head just
above and back Of the ears, where all
well-regulated horns ought to grow.
In order tc satisfy those who ques-
toned it, he removed the scalp of the
rabbit and took 1t to Roscoe, leaving
it at the Roscoe Times office. After
close scrutiny it was concluded that

Pass Dry
Ordinance

Mayor Fawcett split with other
members of the council today
over Commissioner Mills .'prohi-
bition" ordinance which goes
into effect in January. Because
the council would not accept his
amendment, Faweett voted mo"
to the measure.
The ordinance gives the police
power to enforce prohibition after
Jan. by prosecutions in the
municipal court, SO that all fines
might go to the city treasury.
Mills specified set of fines
less severe than the state law.
Mayor Fawcet had prepared an
amendment fixing stricter' set
of penalties. At today's session
Mills asked to withdraw his ordi-
nance, and introduced an amend
ment giving the police court jur-
isdiction to punish violators with
a fine of not more than $IO0, or a
Jail sentence of 80 days, or both,
in the discretion of the court.
Fawcett declared that his
amendment should be passed, be-
cause it conformed to the state
law.
On roll-call, Fawcett's was the
only negative vote for the new
ordinance.
