00F F---0OF BLOW IS
 HIT FOR
 BIG K---O

Zowie
 What a punch below the belt, a short, jabby punch-oof!
 And the man handling the tobacco campaign fund went down, was count ed out, pulled from under the desk five minutes later and came up with both mitts in the air and asked
 "What was it-gee, but what wal Iop."
 Then when the ropes had again been adjusted ready for the next round, the tobacco man was told what it was sent him down and out.
 You see, it was all very quiet in The Gateway office when in blew the thing that caused the bunch to go to the center of the ring at once. There was no dilly-dallying. Both men gIared. Rights were exchanged. There was one short jab to right of bean, a quick punch to the jaw and then foul blow and
 Down went the campaign man.
 Yes, sir.
 The tobacco fund man was hit be- low the belt with twenty-dollar check.
 This check was from the "employees of the Seward Grill and Seward Bak- cry" The check was for the tobacco fund of the "boys somewhere in France"
 Do you get it-twenty bones, wash CTS, cartwheels or anything else you want to call them-but TWENTY.
 And from the fellahs in the Grill and the Bakery.
 Figure it up-each two-bit piece purchases enough tobacco that you or I would have to pay 45 cents for. But there are eighty two-bit pieces. Some smokes, some liberality.
 Oof! The tobacco man has hardly recovered his breath, but he has got to-that is all there is about it; for the campaign has to be pushed hard for the end is in sight-just two weeks from today.
 Have you contributed yet?
 It is only two-bits-more, if you like.
 This two-bits purchases tobacco for someone, perhaps a relative of yours, perhaps a friend, but certainly for one of "our boys" in the trenches "some- where in France" who cant get any tobacco unless you come across.
 Are you kaming?
 The total amount of the tobacco fund being raised by The Gateway was ffty-four dollars even at noon  today

Sour Stomach

This is a mild form of indigestion.
1t is usually brought on by eating
too rapidly or too much, or of food
not suited to your digestive organs.
If you will eat slowly, masticate your
food thoroughly, eat but little meat
and none at all for supper, you will
more than likely avoid the sour stom-
ach without taking any medicine
whatever. When you have sour stom-
ach take one of Chamberlains Tab
