You Can Now Eat
Your Favorite Food
Without Any ear
Kramer Says: 'Eatonic' Rids Weak stomachs of
Acids, Gas, Heartburn, Food Repeating
and Stomach Miseries

What miserable feelings are caused
by an upset stomach! That dull,
heavy, "bloated" sensation that follows
q full meal, robs good living of half
its pleasures. Is there any way out
for you sufferers with stomach weak
ness?
Yes; H. L. Kramer, the man who
originated Cascarets, has found a sure,
quick, relief for indigestion, dyspepsia,
"sour stomach" heartburn, formation
Of painful gases, "bloating," ETC., etc.
He calls his stomach relief EA-
TONIC, and it certainly is making a
wonderful record. Countless thous-
ands Of people who formerly ap-
preached their meals with dread now
eat their fill of their favorite foods
without fear of the after-effects.
Mr.. Kramer says: "My EATONIC
tablets are the solution OF the age-old
problem of indigestion and all forms
of stomach misery.

Requested to Buy Only Things
Necessary to Health
and Efficiency
THRIFT PLEDGE ALSO ASKED
All Citizens Must Be Economically
Adjusted to War Conditions II
Nation Is to Play Its
Part In Conflict.

Washington, d. C.-To save mate
rials and labor for necessary war pur.
poses, President Wilson appealed TO
Americans ito buy only those things
which are essential TO the individual
health and efficiency" and to volun-
teer on or before June %, National
Thrift day, to invest Systematically in
War Savings and Thrift Stamps, or
other government securities.
This war is one of nations-not Of
armies" said the president, "and all
Of our 100,O00,0O0 people must be
economically and industrially adjusted
TO war conditions If this nation is to
play its full part in the conflict
Pledge 10 Sought.
"The problem before us Is not pri-
marily financial problem, but rather
problem Of increased production Of
war essentials and the saving Of the
materials and the labor necessary for
the support and equipment of our
army and navy. Thoughtless expendi-
ture Of money for nonessentials uses
up the labor Of men, the products of
the farm, mines, and factories, and
Oyerburdens transportation, all Of
which must be used to the utmost and
at their best for war purposes.
'"The great results which we seek
can be obtained only by the participa-
ton Of young and old in a national
thrift movement. / therefore urge
that our people everywhere pledge
themselves, as suggested by the secre-
tary of the treasury, to the practice of
thrift; to serve the government to
their utmost in increasing production
in all fields necessary TO the winning
of the war; to conserve food and fuel
and useful materials of every kind; to
devote their labor only to the most
necessary tasks, and to buy only those
things which are essential to individ-
ual health and efficiency.
"Buy More U. S. Securities"
1.-THE securities issued by the treas
ury department are, so many of them,
within the reach of every one that the
door of opportunity in this matter is
wide open to all of US.
II appeal to all who now own either
Liberty bonds or War Savings stamps
to continue to practice economy and
thrift and TO appeal to all who do not
own government securities to do like
wise and purchase them to the extent
of their means. The man who buys
government securities transfers the
purchasing power of his money to the
United States government until after
this war, and to that same degree does
not buy in competition with the gov
eminent.
II earnestly appeal to every man,
woman and child to pledge themselves
on or before June % to save constant
ly and to buy as regularly as possible
the securities Of the government.
1.-THE 28th Of June ends this special
period of enlistment in the great vol
unteer army of production and saving
here at home. May there be none un-
enlisted On that day."

WESTERN CANADA'S S
CROPS
Got an Excellent Start. Big
Yields Now Assured.

Never in the history Of Western
Canada did the seed enter the ground
under more favorable conditions. The
weather during the month of April
was perfect for seeding operations,
and from early morning until late at
night the seeders were at work, and
every acre that could be profitably
sown was placed under requlsition.
Farmers entered heart and soul into
the campaign of greater production.
There was the time and the opportu-
nifty for careful preparation, and as a
consequence with favorable weather
from now on there will be n vastly in
creased yield. They realized 1t was n
duty they owed to humanity to produce
all that they could on the land, not
only this year but next as well. In
addition to the patriotic aspect, they
are aware that the more they produce
the greater will be their own return
in dollars and cents.
In many districts wheat seeding was
completed by the 1st of May, after
which date oats and barley on larger
acreages than usual were planted.
AS has been said, favorable weather
conditions made possible excellent
seed-bed preparation, and the seed has
gone into the ground in unusually good
shape. The available moisture in the
soil has been added to by rains, which
have not been so heavy, however, as to
interfere long with the work In the
fields. The grain is terminating read
lily, and on many fields the young green
blades Of the cereal are already show
ing.
An optimistic feeling prevails among
farmers that Western Canada will reap
record harvest. If the season from
now on is as favorable as 1t has begun,
these hopes should be realized. Mr..
J. D. McGregor of the Federal Food
Board, who is also an old and success
full farmer in Western Canada, assert
ed few days ago at Calgary that crop
conditions throughout the Prairie
Provinces were excellent. speaking
generally" he said, "the crops have
never gone into the ground in better
shape than this year, and with an
even break of luck as far as the wealth
er is concerned, there should be an
enormous crop" His present duties in
connection with the Food Control
Board, taking him in all parts of the
West, Mr.. McGregor has exceptional
opportunities of observing conditions
all over the country Advertisement.

Just about 1890 o'clock today the
fire alarm was sounded, calling the
Fire Department to the corner OF Bay
street an Massachusetts avenue,
where the house occupied by Mr.. Will

afire. Owing to unfamiliarity with
the alarm box system, the alarm was
not sent in promptly, and during this
delay the fire got good start but
as soon as they received the alarm
the Department was Immediately on
the scene, and after stiff fight with
control. The fire was burning be-
tween the ceiling and the roof OF the
kitchen and was hard to reach, but
was finally extinguished with the
damage being confined to the roof,
which was burned off, and Of course
the interior Of the house was badly
damaged by water. Mr.. Wilson
with the aid Of neighbors, was able
to remove all Of his household goods

Last night, before a large congre-
cation, Rev. Wallace Wear, the retir-
ing pastor of the Baptist i church,
took occasion to single this paper out
for warm words of appreciation be-
cause of the support it had given
his ministry and Its helpfulness to
his church, We do not believe that
there Is, or has been for the past
fifteen years, any minister of any
church of Lakeland who would not
be willing to endorse the kindly
words of Mr.. Wear, and there have
been many of these good men who
have been equally outspoken in their
appreciation of this papers course.
There is not church of any denomi-
nation that has not been made to feel
that whatever this paper could do to
aid its work, it was freely and cor

of love to help all the churches, to
aid them according to our means, to
uphold them and lend them every as
sistance in their good work-fsr we
know of no determination which does
not have good for its object, how
ever much we may differ with it in
minor matters of form or dogma. The
commentator of such a minister as
Rev Wear, after years of close asso-
citation, is naturally pleasing to us,
and encourages us in the same broad
course that we have always sought
to characterize our Newspaper work.
