CHILDREN SHOULD
BE WATCHED WITH
VERY GREAT CARE
They Require Perfect Digestion
Otherwise Delicate Tissues Are
Not Nourished.

One Of the greatest mistakes par
ent can make is to neglect looking aft
er a child's digestion.
The tissues of child's body are
very delicate. They have not acquired
the powers OF endurance which older
people possess. The greater portion
of the food they eat is required for
growth and development
Together with the double strain OF
studying and growing. child's diges-
ton is taxed to the limit and parents
should see that. their children have
prompt attention should stomach dis
orders occur.
Pepgen has been real help to
many an anemic child because It puts
blood Of good, rich. red quality into
their little veins and makes them
want to laugh and play.

During the long period of rehabilitation the
soldiers will have many hours of leisure on their

for battle and excitement will no longer be there.
They will be beset by many temptations that are
passed by now. The government is cognizant OF
the probability of relaxation of discipline and

To suffer with nervous dyspepsia,
to experience the agony this dreaded
ailment causes, to realize the tenac1ty
of its endurance when once 1t has TAX
en- strong hold, and then to be rid OF
the ailment, almost over night, 1t
would seem, Is the thrilling expert
ence of Mrs. Gertrude Holspeter, 800

markable experience. Here Is her
story:
Il suffered with nervous dyspepsia
and at times I had pains in my stom-
ach that were almost unbearable. AT
such times I was compelled to go to
bed and l could do nothing but roll,
and toss and moan. often thought l
could not stand the misery. Many
nights my mother has sat up attend
ing me.
II discovered that rich foods made
my trouble worse SO ! was very care
full what l ate. At Thistlethwaite's
drug store on Main street they told
me about Pepgen. They said they
had so many good reports about the
medicine that they thought it might
help me. l tried it. 1t helped me.
l have used it now several weeks
and have not had pain since l De-
gan. l am eating whatever l desire.
I feel very thankful towards Pepgen.
It is wonderful to me to be able to
eat a hearty meal, get good nights
rest and feel strong in general.
Pepgen's aid to the people surfer
ing with stomach, kidney and liver Ills
has been unusual. 1t has been simple
and natural for Pepgen is Natures

If Germany should ask for peace today, the
need for every cent of the $170 500, 900 would not

The comforts provided by the seven organi-

The fighter needs every bit Of cheer and comfort
that he can derive on his way back from Europe

they can be brought home. If the organizations
