Believe U-Boat Captains
HaUe Been Instructed
Not to Sink u. S. Ships
The Globe

London, Feb. 23.-It is quite pos
sible that the American steamers
Rochester and Orleans may escape
German submarines on their way
through the barred zone from New
York to Bordeaux. says the Berlin
Lokal AnZeiger, as quoted in an Ex-
change Telegraph Company's Amster-
dam dispatch but America should not
rely upon their doing so.
In Berlin political circles the Ex-
changes correspondent adds. it is be-
heved the submarine commanders
have been definitely instructed not to
sink these American ships.

'Pape's Diapepsin" is positive in neu-
tralizing the acidity, so the misery
won't come back very quickly.
You feel different as soon as "Pape's
Dlapepsin' comes in contact with the
stomach-distress Just vanishes-your
stomach gets sweet. no gases, no
belching, no eructations of undigested
food, your head clears and you feel
fine.
Go now, make the best investment
you ever made, by getting a large fifty
cent case of Pape's Diapepsin from
any drug store. You realize in five
minutes how needless it is to suffer
from indigestion, dyspepsia or any
stomach disorder due to acid fermen-
tation.
