Fighting Poison Gas.

Do you know that you folks at home
as well as the brave boys 'over there
are menaced by "poison gas the
insidious kind that steals away health
and the joy of living, in the perpetually
recurring disturbances resulting from
a gassy, sour stomach.
1900 New York physicians regularly
prescribe JOHNS DIGESTIVE
TABLETS as the most perfect form
of relief known for these stomach dis
orders. The TABLETS are highly
beneficial for gastric and intestinal
indigestion, heartburn. acid or sour
stomach, Aatulence and gastric catarrh.
They sure do vanish that poison gas
which is the basis of most stomach
ailments, as we'll as Danish bad breath
which usually heralds that gas.hlled
stomach.
Get the TABLETS at your drug
store. They insure quick, lasting relief
by taking three to six dissolved In a
glass of water or chewed before swall-
owing. Have JOHNS DIGESTIVE
TABLETS handy in the dining room
for chronic cases of gastric or intes-
tinal indigestion-as one or two TAB
LETS should be taken before each
meal.

MARKETING POTATOES.
Crop Should Not Be Put On Market
Just Yet.
To the Editor of The Robesonian:

To the Editor of The Robesonian:
You might say that the opinion of
the potato people at Wilmington, also
the Northern representatives there,
is that we should not put the crop on
the market just yet, as the South Car
olina "Old Belt" crop is going on now.
and it should get out of the way in
a few days.
Where the vines have died down, as
on bottom lands, and they wish to get
it off the land for other crops, it
could be dug and stored in COL ven
tilated houses for few days and snip
just as well thereby. Wilmington
growers say they will do this, and they
can choose a time when the soil IS IN
good condition to dig-not too wet, SO
as to get bright grade clear Of dirt
Grading will have to be done by tie
new U. S. grading rules, as every
thing will have to sell by these
grades.

RESURRECTION OF THE OLD
CARPET-BAGGING DAYS

Atlanta, Ga, Feb. 6-The old-fash-
Toned carpet bag which used to be a
badge OF anathema in the South in
the days of Reconstruction is likely
TO come back into fashion again, ac-
cording to the manufacturers of
leather goods, who claim that the
hide supply is running SO low thew
can hardly fill their orders.
Now that the knitting bag con-
structed of flaming cretonne patterns
mas become such a common SIGHT
throughout the country, perhaps the
public will take return to the car
pet bag with very little shock. In
tact, 1t takes great deal to shock
the American public these DAYS. An
Atlanta paragraph writer remarks
that he doesn't believe the people
would quit scrambling for coal or
buying cemetery lots if the papers
should announce the end of the world
on March | at o'clock a. m.
Look out for the carpet bag. It
will not mean in this. day and time
what it used to mean.
