IN FIVE MINUTES
No SICK STOMACH
INDIGESTION, GAS
"Pape's Diapepsin" is the
quickest and sureSt Stom-
aCh relief

You don't know what upset your stom-
ach-which portion of the food did the
damage-do you? Well don't bother.
If your stomach is in a revolt; if sick,
gassy 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 neutralize acidity
and in five minutes you wonder what
became of the indigestion and distress.
Millions of men and women today
know that it is needless to have dys-
pepsia. A little Diapepsin occasionally
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 help.
remember the quickest, surest, most
harmless antacid is Papes Diapepsin
which costs only fifty cents for a large
case at drug stores. It's truly wonder
ful-it stops food souring and sets
things straight, so gently and easily that
1t is really astonishing. You stomach
will digest your meals if you keep acids

William ]. Zahn Tells
Graphic Story of Tragedy

William j. Zahn, who on arriving
home for supper, encountered Anderson
on the lawn in front of the house, and
who. after a desperate struggle. sue
ceeded in overpowering the assassin and
finally shooting him, told the following
graphic story of the tragedy.
II had feared there would be trouble
of some kind at home because / had
been Informed that Anderson had
threatened my sister earlier in the day.
I called the police and asked them to
be on the lookout for him in the neigh
borhood and not to permit him to en-
ter the house.
II was arriving home at the usual
supper hour When / got half block
from the home some one met me and
shouted. The whole Zahn family has
been shot l FASTENED to the house
Anderson met me in front. His gun
was drawn and he pointed it at me. /
made a lunge fer his gun and threw his
arm above his head. Anderson fell
across the stone coping of the lawn ad-
joining our house. He must have struck
his head a hard blow blow for he APP
parently was stunned.
"He still grpped his gun loosely in
his hand. | also feel, at the same time
Anderson fell. I recovered myself quick
ly, loosened Anderson's gun from his
grip and while he lay on the ground l
shot him"
At this point of his story, Mr.. Zahn
demonstrated by gestures the manner In
which he shot Anderson.
Il don't know where l shot him." he
continued, whether it was the head or
the breast. l don't know exactly how
many shots 1 fired
81 used Anderson's gun because l had
no gun of my own. I knew nothing
whatever of the shooting until l was

has not enough salt"
"As I have said hundred times over,
organic iron is the greatest of all
strength builders. If people would only
throw away habit-formi-g and nauseous
concoctions and take simple nuxated
iron, 1 am convinced that the lives of
thousands of persons might be saved
who now die every year from pneu-
monia. grippe, consumption, kidney, liv-
er, heart trouble, etc. The real and true
cause which started their disease was
nothing more nor less than a weakened
condition brought on by lack of iron
in the blood.
On account of the peculiar nature of
woman, and the great drain placed upon
her system at certain periods, she re-
quires iron much more than man to help
make up for the loss.
Iron is absolutely necessary to enable
your blood to change food into living it's
sue. Without it, no matter how much
or what you eat, your food merely passes
through you without doing you any good.
You don't get the strength out of it, and
as a consequence you become weak, pale
and sickly looking, just like a plant try
ing to grow in a soil deficient in iron.
If you are not strong or well, you owe
it to yourself to make the following
test: See how long you can work or how
far you can walk without becoming
tired. Next take two five-grain tablets
of ordinary nuXated iron three times per
day after meals for two weeks. Then test
your strength again and see how much
you have gained. | have seen dozens of
nervous rundown people who were all
ing all the while double their strength

selves of all symptoms of dyspepsia, Iiv-

teen days time simply by taking iron in
