FOOD SQUIRTING In
STOMACH CAUSES
INDIGESTION, GAS
fFPape's Diapepsin" relieves
stomach distress in
five minutes.

Wonder what upset your stomach
which portion of-the food did the
damage-do you? Well. don't bother.
If your stomach is in a revolt; if sick.
sassy and upset, and what you just
ate has fermented and turned sour
head dizzy and aches; belch gases and
acids and eructate undigested food:
breath foul tongue coated-just take
little Pape's Diapepsin to help neu-
tralize acidity and in five minutes you
wonder what became of the indiges-
ton and distress.
Millions of men and women today
know that it is needless to have dys-
pepsia- A little Dfapepsin occasion
ally keeps the stomach sweetened and
they eat their favorite foods without
fear.
If your stomach doesn't take care of
your liberal limit without rebellion;
if your food is a damage instead of
a help. remember the quickest, surest,
most harmless relief is Pape's Diapep-
sin, which costs only fifty cents for a
large case at drug stores. It's truly
wonderful-it stops fermentation and
acidity and sets things straight, so
gently and easily that it is really as
tonishing.-AdV.

God! It's not my boy who's been

Mrs. Alice Dodd dried the suds from
the tub where she had been washing

her of the death in France of her son,
James Gresham, "a.
And then-"Oh," she moaned be-
tween sobs, IT should be brave for his
sake, for he has died for his country.
But am only mother and it is hard
for me to be brave when they tell me
my boy is dead.
He thought that he would be
killed. In all of his letters he said he
was not coming back. But somehow
thought that my prayers would pro-

to do ever since he was little bit of a
mite
Young Gresham was killed with
General Pershing's expeditionary
force in France. He had been in the
army since 1914 when he went with
General Pershing into Mexico after

SAYS HOT WATER

Everyone should drink hot water

To feel as fine as the proverbial
fiddle, we must keep the liver washed
clean, almost every morning. to pre-
vent its sponge-like pores from clog

physician.
If you get headaches, it's your
liver. If you catch cold easily. it's
your liver If you wake up with a
bad taste, furred tongue, nasty breath
or stomach becomes rancid, it's your
liver. Sallow skin, muddy complexion,

it's function or how to release the
dammed-up body waste, bile and
toxins Most folks resort to violent
calomel, which rs a dangerous, sali-
waiting chemical which can only be
used occasionally because it accumu-

bones.
Every man and woman. sick or well,

Limestone phosphate does not re-

it cannot salivate. for it is harmless

GIVE THEIR SERVICES
Theaters of Topeka to Trouble and
Expense of Collecting Taxes.

The theaters of Topeka are, in the
manner of speaking, deputy collectors
of revenue for Uncle Sam. tho they
are taking no oath of office and they
draw no pay. But once a month each
theater manager must remit to the
collector of internal revenue at Wash
ington all taxes collected under the
new law, together with a sworn state
ment verifying the correctness of the
amount RENTED.
The theaters of Topeka have agreed
to collect the tax free and to make no
profit on it, of course. This tax be-

WISE OLD BRAKEMEN
Central Branch Railway Men Take

Atchison, Kan, Nov. THE rail-

breaking up a game whereby a lot of

filling their grips with booze. and
then hiring red cap boys to carry
the grips to the Central Branch coach.
The red cap' boys always piled the
grips near the front end of the coach,
and no one claimed the grips until
Stockton was reached. Whenever,
during the trip west, a conductor ask
ed about the ownership of the grips
in the front end of the coach, no one
raised his voice, for fear of being ar
rested for violating the bone dry law.
Recently the brakemen got onto the
game, and now they nab" the grips
before Stockton is reached, and keep
them, and no one demonstrates with
them because if he did he would be
arrested for violating the bone dry
law. The brakemen have secured
fine assortment of grips and-'valises
in this manner, and will give them to
their friends as Christmas gifts.

for Invading Armies.

1000 AViatOrs More Effective
Than 100000 Troops.
Hope U. S. Won't Lose Faith in
Italy Due to Defeat.

Headquarters OF the Italian Army,
Tuesday, Nov. 6.-(By the Associated
Press. 1.-The main fact of the situa-
ton connected with the reorganization
of the second and third armies is the
General Cadorna line has been re-
established. This line will be de-
Tended by the same magnificent
troo IS which in May won four battles
at the SAM time Storming Monte
Santo, Montekuk, Sabotino and Her
mazda. The soldiers have the greatest
confidence in Cadorna.
Or element of the new Cadorna
line is that the soldiers already are
learning to Withstand the German
methods of FIGHTING which are diff
ferent from those of the Austrians-
1t was necessary for the troops who
in Libya four years ago conquered
the Turks by bayonet charges. the
Italians being without artillery of any
kind, even machine guns to learn how
to conquer the Austrians.
Now they unjust learn the German
way. The Italians have vast super
iority in mountain fighting over the
Germans who secured their advantage
two weeks ago by treachery-
Look to United States for Planes.
General Cadornas line is being
strengthened by the inspiring activity
of airplanes, notably the Capronis in
constructing which Italy has made
rapid strides Italian officers have
insisted to the correspondent that the
United St-tes ust furnish more and
more artillery but that particularly
she must furnish aviators and air
planes.
They say Italy has a superb album
dance of troops but never has had
enough airplanes, which they believe
will prove the key to further warfare,
whether it is of resistance or agrees
sion. They assert that the United
states, therefore, will do far better
for her allies by furnishing airplanes
than in sending trops, task which it
will require effort to carry out, and
also large quantities of food to- main
tain the mel. They say that one
thousand aviators would be better
than one hundred thousand troops.
The Italian point of view seemed to
be indicated not only when the Ital-
ian forces took Bainsizza in Septem-
Der. but during the recent retreat
when the Capronis protected the rear
and also destroyed by bombardment
store houses of supplies which the
retreating infa ntry was unable to do.
After the retreat the Capronis went
over the ground and blew up the
Italian supplies.

cause a temporary reverse has been
playing into the hands of the enemy.
