TO Stop Indigestion
in Five Minutes
Some Com~e. sense Advice

Pain in the stomach after eating,
Indigestion, dyspepsia. flatulence
gas. etc. are almost invariably due
60 acidity and food fermentation TO
attempt 10 cure the trouble by using
digestive powders and pills or dead
ening drugs is like trying 10 relieve
wound from splinter OF glass by
applying ointment without first re-
moving the glass. In each case the
cause remains and the trouble gets
worse. The common sense thing to
do when your stomach hurts is to
remove the acid and stop the fer
menthtion by means Of n simple ant
acid or neutrnte such Ili-nesln
which can be obtained OF any drug
glst In either powder or tablet form
a teaspoonful OF Bl-ncsIa Powder or
two or three OF the tablets taken in
half a glass OF hot water, after eat
ing, instantly neutrnlizes the acid
stops food fermentation. and thus
enables the most confirmed dyspep-
tic TO enjoy the hcnrticst meals
without the slightest pain or incon-
venienee, Try this simple plan al
once and forget That you ever had a
stomach.

PRESIDENT WILSON

Asked to Countermand Major-GeneraI

Boston, Mass, May 1.-Regarding it
as the most nOn-demOcratic action
since the world war began, the Ma
tional Equal Rights League, which has
branches in % states and will hold it's
18th annual meeting in Chicago in
August, protested to President Wilson
by telegraph against the order of
Major General Ballou, former com.
mander of the separate officers train

order is SO insulting that it was torn
down three times when posted up at
Camp Upton, and which order colored
soldiers to surrender civil rights at
the behest of white race prejudice.

service is putting pleasure above the
general good is not applied to white
soldiers, destroys all civil rights,
causes fresh Discrimination, fosters
race prejudice, humiliates our race,
degrades the army uniform.

NATIONAL INSURANCE.

When you buy a Liberty Bond you
are taking out national insurance on

Where the kaiser's army sets its
foot, private property ceases to exist.
The apostles of kultur steal or destroy
everything. In their retreat from the
somme a year ago, they even turned
the wells into latrines and sowed salt
at the roots Of the vines and fruit
trees. In Belgium, in northern France,
in Poland, Italy and Russia, they have
restored the ancient system of war
slavery, and drafted the civilian in
habitants to labor under the lash of
their Teutonic conquerors.
These things are done systematic

CENSUS PLUM CAKE.

The 1920 Census Bill provides for
a staff Of $4,000 employees to take

policy Of the administration with re-
spect to partisan appointments they
will all be- Democrats. This is added
evidence that the army will be re-
cruited from the ranks Of the Repub>
licans. The party out of power and
spurned by the President is the party
which has made possible this draft

the greater percentage Of the fight

THE DRIVE FOR LIBERTY

the movement for the Liberty Con.
gress was inaugurated in Boston.
June IL of last year at session held
In Faneuil Hall, the cradle of liberty,
at a national conference called by the
New England League. A Liberty Con.
ference was started as national com.
m1ttee to arrange for a National
Colored Liberty Congress. Rev. A. C.
Powell Of New York is president; Prof.
A. w. Whalley of Boston is national
organizer; w. M. Trotter, executive
secretary. A board Of managers was
begun with Robert H. Harrison of
New York as chairman. This board
is to be augmented.
The purpose Of the Congress is to
press the just claim of Colored Ameri-
cans to share in the world democracy
for which they are all subject to fight
under the flag and to take positive
measures to secure from the govern
ment guarantees of the abolition of dis
reimbursement and of all caste dis
ordinations.
The proposal to hold meeting early
this year has been enthusiastically re-
ceived by the thinking men of the
country and the executive officers have
decided to hold the congress at Wash
ington, D. c., June "a to 20.
This congress of Colored America to
present to the Government it's claim
for a share in the world democracy is
a great opportunity for the Colored
people. Every community ought to
send a big delegation.
