DOES WAR SPELL PROSPERITY?

Portander who left London two weeks ago is
quoted by newspaper in the former city as follows:
"There is not beggar to be found in London, or at
least | met none not even on the EmbanIment at mid
night where normally, pedestrian is approached re-
peatedy and asked for the price of meal Everyone is
working and at top wages. The lockers are making from
$50 to $50 a week. the biggest wages they have ever
received They are being paid in gold and they are at
tending strictly to their jobs"
Germans write back from Berlin that the city is busy,
everybody working labor in demand and the price of
living reasonable
Paris dressmakers and miiners said to be having
the biggest boom in their business in yearsand there are
few Americans over there buying French styles either
Evidently war is great thing for boosting business
and putting old General Prosperity back on the job All
the neutral countries are going through period of
depression with slack business little demand for labor
and prices of necessities higher than ever
If these reports from the true it ought tc
tend to boom ngoism in this country We are overlooking
splendid business opportunities possibly by negecting tc
swat Mexico, and to make prosperity doubIy sure we
might twist the English lions tail little and give
Kaiser Bill a swat or two just for good measure.

STOMACH SUFFERERS \

Eminent stomach specialists like Rie-

an artificial digcstant. The trouble is
not a lack Of digestive juices, but too
much acid in the stomach.
Ncutrali2c the excess acid in your
stomach, give the digestive juices q
chance TO net, thus avoiding poisonous
gases and toxic products which often
cause biliousncss, internal disorders,
nervousness, headaches, general weak
ness, etc. and you will be all right.
Never take large quantities of soda or
soda tablets to ncutralize cXccs acid.

HOW FRENCH PEOPLE
CURE STOMACH TROUBLE

A household remedy of the French
peasantry, consisting of pure vegetable
oil, and said to possess wonderful merit
in the treatment Of stomach, liver and
intestinal troubles, has been introduced
in this country by George H. Mayr, who
for twenty years has been one Of the
leading downtown druggists of Chi
cago and who himself was cured by its
use. So quick and effective is its action
that a single dose is usually enough to
bring pronounced relief in the most
stubborn eases, and many people who
have tried it declare they never heard
of anything to produce such remarkable
results in so short time. 1t is known
as Mayr's Wonderful Remedy and can
now be had at all leading drug stores
1t is sold with the positive understand.
