Stomach Misery,

Stops any sourness, heartburn,
or food rising in few
moments.

The question as to how long you are
going to continue sufferer from indl-
gestion. dyspepsia or out-of-order stom-
aeh is merely matter of how soon you
begin taking some Diapepsin.
II your stomach is lacking in digestive
power why not help the stomach TO do
its work, not with drastic drugs, but a re-
enforcement OF digestive agents. such as
are naturally at work in the stomach.
People with weak stomachs should
take little Diapepsin occasionally, and
there will be no more indigestion. no feel
ing like a lump Of lead in the stomach
no heartburn, sour risings. gas on stom-
aeh or belching of undigested food. head

sides, what you eat will not ferment
and poison your breath with nauseous
odors. All these symptoms resulting
from sour. out-of-order stomach and
dyspepsia are generally relieved five
minutes after taking a little Diapepsin.
Go TO your druggist and get a 5O-cent
case OF Pape's Diapepsin now. and YOU
will always 20 TO the table with a hearty
appetite. and what you eat will taste
good, because your stomach and intes-

CHARGES RAILROAD
RAISES EXPENSES
Chairman of Railway Commission
Accuses Rock Island of Boost
ing Passenger Traffic Cost.
RATE HEARING IN PROGRESS

Henry T. Clarke, jr., chairman
Of the state railway commission, de-
clared that the business movements
Of the Rock Island railroad in Ne
braska lead him to suspect that
it had deliberately increased its
passenger expenses in order to make
a showing in court when seeking an
increase of passenger rates.
you cannot defeat a state statute
by any such methods" he said to
Judge E. p. Holmes. attorney for the
Rock Island.
This occurred at the hearing of
the Rock Islands suit to enjoin the
railway commission from preventing
an increase OF passenger rates on the
Rock Islands lines in Nebraska.
Three Judges Hear Case.
Federal Judges T. c. Munger Of I'm
coin. Walter L. Smith OF Council Bluffs
and Martin j. Vale OF Davenport are
hearing the case.
State Railway Commissioners Clarke,
Taylor and Hall and the railway COM
missions rate expert, L. G. Powell. were
present. So also was Attorney General
Willis Reed.
Among the railroad men present were
l.. NJ. Alien. Rock Island passenger traf-
fic agent, Chicago; James stewart. gem
eral passenger agent of the Rock Island.
Kansas City. and ]. A. c. Kennedy Of
Omaha. counsel for the Missouri Pacific,
who recently won passenger rate VIC
tory for his road.
MIR. Clarke showed that the Rock ISL
and has Increased its passenger train
service in Nebraska in the last four
years from about 1,lOO miles a day to
about 1850 miles a day. thus showing
decreasing earnings per passenger-train-
mile.
Freight Service Reduced.
At the same time. he stated, the roads
freight service has been cut down in
face of increasing freight earnings.
"The average revenue of the Rock ISL
and per mile of road is as great as that
of the Burlington and greater than that
OF the Northwestern in Nebraska" ne
said.
Showing the effect of the reduction OF
passenger rates from 3 cents TO cents
per mile in accordance with the state
law Of 1907. he said:
"In 1907 when the railroads received 3
cents mile for eight months Of the year
and cents the rest OF the year. the
Rock Island earned $1.O5 per train mile.
In 1905 receiving only cents a mile. it
earned S126 per train mile; in 1909 II
earned $40 per train mile"
Subsequent to this. he said. the putting
on of new trains in Nebraska by the
Rock Island road had started in the al
legged attempt to cover up increasing
passenger earnings by artificially in
creased passenger expenses.

Children's Tent

a little lunch, and Miss Shera will
make you all have the best picnic
you ever had.
Last year you remember how
many we're over there every day,
don't you? More than ever before,
you know, even between seventy
five and hundred; SO this year no
telling what number there will be.
And so don't wait until the Chau-
tauqua is half over before you start
going over there in the mornings,
but go the very first Monday morn
ing and enjoy the whole thing.
Patsy is going to be back again;
Patsy with all his good crisp
Cracker Jack, and fresh creamy taf-
fy. and Birthday parties! Aren't
you glad? Get your mouth all made
up to taste those good things, and
then spend every minute you can
out at our good old ChautauQua.
The Richmond palladium and sun-telegram. [volume] (Richmond, Ind.) 1907-1939, 1916-08-19

Miss Grace Shera will have
charge of the Children's Tent again
this year at the Chautauqua, so all
the little folks can be looking for
ward to as good time as they
had last year. Every morning from
9 to II, things will be going on. All
those skipping games and morning
songs, and soap bubbles to blow,
and colored papers to make things
out of on rainy days, and two sand
piles instead of one to play in, and
the walks down into the Glen to be
taken: all these, just the same as
last year, waiting to be done.
But there is something that Miss
Shera is planning this year that
you didn't have last time, and that
is a great big picnic In the after
noon some day, just for children.
And all the children of all parts Of
the Chautauqua can come and bring

Mary and Her Sister

were already there. To be sure she
was ashamed for they were always
there first. She was very very mad.
well why are you down here SO
soon?" she asked.
"This is not soon. We are in
time but you are late. So you may
eat in the kitchen and the maid
may eat in your place here" said
her father.
Gee, but she was mad. Il will
eat here or no place at ALL" she
said in a harsh tone.
Well do as you please then"
was the reply.
She then went outdoors and sat
down and began to cry. All at once
she heard voice. 1t was a scree-
chy voice. She looked on the left
but could not see any one. Finally
she looked on the right side and
there she saw q little boy about
her age.
What are YOU doing in our
yard?"
"Why, l am your neighbor, so l
thought I would come over and get
acquainted with YOU"
II don't want to know you," she
said.
"Why don't your"
Because I don't"
Il will make you like me-"
We'll such a remark"
Thank you and goodby," he said.
He walked away whistling. In the
meantime the rest of the folks were
eating their breakfast and enjoying
the meat. But the little sister was
not. She felt sorry for her sister
Mary. She got up and walked out
into the garden where Mary was
sitting. She came up and sat down
beside her. Mary told Margaret all
about the little boy whom she had
met.
II should like to see the boy You
are talking Of" said Margaret.
He said he was coming past
tomorrow about this time"
'l'll be down them" said she.
The next day which was Friday
Margaret went down to the same
rock her sister had gone to the day
before. She did not have to wait
long, for soon she saw a boy com

Nicolletta Gets
Summer Outing
in Mountains

Nicoletta is a little Italian girl
excuse me. mean a little Ameri-
can girl who used to be an Italian,
whose father and mother brought
her and her four brothers and sis
tiers over from Rome four years
ago. Her whole name is Nicoletta
Piscitelli and she is just ten years
old, but guess what wonderful thing
has happened to her.
Her Sunday School teacher grew
so fond of her that this summer she
took little Nicolletta on long, long
trip that lasted eight weeks, and
they went down south, and in the
mountains, and all through ever SO
many states, and finally they came
here to Richmond.
Just think what that meant to
that little girl. She lives in part
of New York where they never
have any grass or trees or flowers,
and everything is all jumbled to-
gether and dirty; and her father
and mother both work all day, SO
that Nicolletta had to cook and
sweep and sew most all the time.
And then it was just like a fairy
story, when beautiful lady came
and changed this little Cinderella
into a lovely, stylish girl with silk
dresses and big, floppy hats, who
Travelled hundreds of miles in Pull
man cars and ate on the diner, and
met lots of rich people, and rode in
automobiles and had nothing to do
but just what she pleased all the
time
And now she has gone back home
again. But do you know what she
has done? She has divided out all
her lovely clothes between her 9th
er little sisters, and she is spending
her time telling them all about ev-
erything she saw.

ing down the road wflistling. When
he came up to her he spoke and
tipped his hat and he thought she
was prettier and sweeter than her
sister. But he did not stop. He
went on.
Margaret thought 1t queer that
he did not stop. but she went on to
the house and told her mother
whom she had seen and what she
had said but told her he did not
stop. Saturday Margaret's mother
told her that she was to go to New
York with her father and get some
things for the following day. for
they were going to have guests.
She told Mary to go into the kitch-
en- and help get ready for the next
day.
So Margaret went to the city and
bought the things her mother want
ed. Sunday came in hurry and
when 1t was time for Mary to go
to her room her mother said she
would have to stay there until the
guests had gone home. Margaret
went to her sister and found her
crying. why are you crying?"
asked Margaret.
Mother made me come up here
and stay" she answered. "She
said l did not have manners"
well I will tell you what l will
do. l will ask mother to let you
try once more"
Although the guests had arrived
she asked her mother, who finally
gave her consent. Margaret ran up
stairs and told Mary she could try
once more When they came down
stairs they found their guests were
the new neighbors and the little
boy whom they had met. The day
passed happily and when night
came the guests went home and
when Mary went to her bed her
mother came to kiss her good night
"You acted very good today" her
mother said.

Peter noticed these things as he
walked along. and it made him

bright tin pail 1t didn't seem al
large as It did before. Peter knew

he said soberly as he started to
pick berries with a will.
Tumety-tum they went into the
pail. The shiny bottom was soon
covered. In a short time the pail
was half full and then it was full

knew 1t.
Then he went trudging to the
house

on a time there was boy who was
lazy. He believed that nobody had

went to pick some berries and he
didn't want to do 1t one little bit.
When he went to the field he saw
that birds. ants and spiders were
working. He was SO surprised that
he forgot all about being lazy, and
picked his berries"
And then Peter looked up in his
mothers face with his big brown
eyes.

ICES what great benefit such
thing would be to the girls of Rich
mond. It is as important to us as
a tennis court or play grounds or
any other institution which tends
to develop us physically. AS it Is
we have no perfectly sanitary place
to swim. There are hundreds of
girls in Richmond to whom such an
institution would be real saliva
ton. The boys are equipped with
swimming pool. Why should not
we girls have one also? Dear Ed

the Girls of Richmond to the Di-
rectors OF the new Girls Hotel,
that they will build a swimming
pool in the building. Trusting that
yon will advocate the project at
every opportunity, l am
Yours sincerely,

print and paper will allow. Keep

as we can work on definite cam

us. Different club women have ex-

we can get those directors to feel
that our swimming pool will be one
OF the most important parts of that
