Cut Your Store Bill
Down One Half

Tens of thousands of farmers as well as
town and city folks cut down their store
bills one-half last year and saved money
in spite of generally short crops and re-
duccd wages.
Absolutely millions of dollars were
saved and countless families lived better
than ever before in the face of the cotton
crisis and general business depression.
How were these burdensome store bills
cut down? BY the real money-saying
power of good home gardens, rightly
planted and kept planted and tended
through the season.
Hastings 1916 Seed Catalogue tells how
to cut store bills down; tells about gar
den and farm seeds of kinds and quail
ity that cannot be bought from your mer-
chant or druggist. It's full of garden and
farm information. It's free if you ask
for it. Write for it now. ii. C. HASTINGS

ACIDS IN STOMACH
SOUR THE FOOD AND
CAUSE INDIGESTION
"Pape's Diapepsin" Fixes Sour, Classy,
Upset StOmachs in Five
Minutes.

If what you just ate is souring on
your stomach or lies like lump of
lead, refusing to digest, or YOU belch
gas and eructate sour, undigested
food, or have a feeling of dizziness.
heartburn, fullness, nausea, bad taste
in mouth and stomach headache, YOU
can surely get relief in five minutes.
Ask your pharmacist to show you
the formula, plainly printed on these
hfty-cent cases of Pape's Diapepsin,
then you will understand why dys-
peptic troubles of all kinds must 90,
and why it relieves sour, out-of order
stomachs or Indigestion in five min
utes. "Pape's Diapepsin" is harmless;
tastes like candy, though each dose
will digest and prepare for assimila-
ton into the blood all the food you
eat; besides, it makes you go to the
table with a healthy appetite; but
what will please you most, is that YOU
will feel that your stomach and intes-
times are clean and fresh, and you will
not need to resort to laxatives or liver
pills for biliousness or constipation.
This city will have many "Pape's
Diapepsin" cranks, as some people will
call them, but you will be enthusiastic
about this splendid stomach prepara-
ton, too, if you ever take it for indi-
gestlon, gases, heartburn, sourness,
dyspepsia, or any stomach misery.
Get some now, this minute, and rid
yourself Of stomach misery and indi-
gestion in five minutes.

Seriousness of Bad Back.
The constant aching of bad back,

they thought I was going to die. A
doctor advised me to try Doan's Kid
ney Pills and J got a box from the
Palmetto Drug Co. / was relieved af-
ter had taken them day or so and
before long I passed a gravel stone.
One box of Doan's Kidney Pills cured
me and that cure has lasted for eight
years."

Leap Year.

The Peoples Home Journal had
the following about leap year, which
may be news to many people: "The
custom which ordains that woman
may propose marriage to a man in
lcap year dates back seven or eight
hundred years. An act of the Scot
fish parliament, passed about the
year 1928, made it crime punish
able by fine, for an unattached man
to refuse to become the life partner
of woman who had the courage to
speak We mon she liked!' The Gus
tom in milder form is referred to in
a work published in 1906 entitled,
"Courtship, Love and Matrimony.'
Albeit it has now become a part of
the common law in regard to social
relations of life that as often as every
bissextlle year doth return, the ladies
have the sole privilege during the
time it continueth of making love I'M
to the men, which they do either by
words or looks, as to them it seemeth
proper, and moreover, no man shall
be entitled to the benefit of clergy
who doth in anywise treat the pro-
posal with slight or contumely."

THE POPULATION OF IOWA.
State Census Shows Six Per Cent In
crease in Five Years. =

The population of Iowa according
to the state census of 1919 is 1885,
O62, a gain of 6 per cent over the
federal census of 1910.
The population of Iowa in 1910
was 2,224,771. Since then there has
been a gain of 133,321. These figures
are official as far as SO of the SO
counties are concerned. The count
of Ringgold county is not official, but
is approximately correct.
The gain in population has been
almost entirely confined to the cities,
the results show. The rural districts
about held their own. A few lost in
population.

Ills Aeolian playing softly as he
wanders through the corn.
Where gay autumn's fairy minions
over hills and valleys sweep,
Banners brown and gold and GRIM
son up the rustling hillside
creep,
Then the shouting laughing huskers
rattle down the lanes at morn
And like princes ride returning high
enthroned on golden corn.
Winter brings his store of pleasure as
he spreads his mantle white,
Robes the vale with pearl and ermine
strewn with diamonds in night,
Happy lads are out a coasting, sleigh
bells jingle far and near,
Many lassie speeds her wedding as
the plow time draws near.
Blest are they who in thy borders
with the seasons rise and live,
Drawing from thy open storehouse
all the joys that earth can give,
And thy children who have wander

pail,
In fond memory still will linger
where the corn grows green and
