ADVERTISING SAVED HIM

And now advertising has saved
a man from the gallows! He
was arrested in Chicago. and the
police forged a chain of circum-
stantial evidence against him
that seemed to seal his doom.
His lawyers put an advertise
ment in the Chicago News, ap-
pealing to unknown witnesses to
come forward and supply the
necessary evidence to break the
hypothetical police chain. These
witnesses were scattered here
and there, being guests at the
Y. M. c. A. on the night of the
murder, when the accused man
claimed to have also been guest.
The ad produced this scattered
evidence, and the man was set
free. Thus is the far-reaching
power Of newspaper advertising
strikingly exemplified. We are
just beginning to see what this
form of advertising really is.
From out the mist and maze and
fog and dust of the theorist we
are emerging into the light. When
you want to attain a desired re-
suit or secure a needed thing,
advertise! Even liberty comes

Proper Food for Weak Stomachs

The proper food for one man may be
all wrong for another. Every one should
adopt diet suited to his age and occu-
patton. Those who have weak stomachs
need to be especially careful and should
eat slowly and masticate their food
thoroughly. 1t is also important that
they keep their bowels regular. When
they become constipated or when they
feel dull and stupid after eating, they
should take Chamberlain Tablets to
strengthen the stomach and move the
bowels. They are easy to take and
piepsant in effect. adv-,e-4t
