STOMACH MISERY
AND INDIGESTION
"Pape's Diapepsin" makes

achs feel fine.

Do some foods you eat hit back 90
taste good, but work badly; ferment
into acid, and cause a sick, sour gaSsy
stomach? Now, Mr.. or Mrs Dyspcptic,

ncutrallle the excessive acids IN the
stomach so your food won't sour and
upset YOU There never was ANYTHING
so safely quick so certainly effective.
No difference how badly your stomach
Is upset YOU usually get happy relief in
five minutes but what pleaScs you most
is that il helps 10 regulate your stomach
~ you can eat your fayorltc foods
without fear.
Most remedies give You relief some
timc,-they are slow but not sure
"Pape's Dlapcpsin" is positive in neu-
lraliring the acidity, SO the misery
won't come back very quickly
You feel different as soon as "Papc' S
Diapepsin' comes IN contact With the
stomaCh-distreSS Just vanlsheS - your
stomach gets sweet, no gaSseS, no belCh-
inA no eructationS ol undigcsled food,
your head clears and you feel fine.
Go now, make the best investment
you ever made, by getting a large fifty
cent case OF pahc'S Diapepsin from any
drug store You realize in five min
utes how needless it is to suffer from
Indigestion, dyspepsia or any stomach
disorder due to acid fermentation.

THE LAND QUESTION

IAN the advanced Russian revolu-
tionaries," writes Norman Hapgood
"are fighting against landed prophet
orship, but although Leninites believe
in community ownership they have to
yield to the peasants in their insis-
tence on small holdings. Meantime
the people who made the Bible, facing
the land question again, still hold
that the land is something that should
not be subject to monopoly. They,
however, take the solution not of di-
vision into small holdings but OF COM
munity worship. In Palestine under
Jewish rule there is to be no owner
ship of land by individuals. In the
Zionist convention at Pittsburgh
among the resolutions were:
'Second-To insure in the Jewish
national home in Palestine equality
of opportunity we favor a policy
which, with due regard to existing
rights, shall tend to establish the
ownership and control ,by the whole
people of the land, of all natural re-
sources, and of all public utilities.
Third-All land owned or controll-
ed by the whole people shall be leas-
ed on such conditions as will insure
the fullest opportunity for develop
ment and continuity of possession.
Woe to Them says Isaiah, that
lay field to field till there is no place,
that they may be placed alone in the
midst of the earth After twenty CEN
turies of wandering the Jews, re-es-
tablishing their home, do it on the
basis Of their great prophets. They
hold that the land, source of all
wealth. great mother of US all, is not
proper object of monopoly"

Food Hint for Today
Saving the Best TIL the Last.

You have level tablespoons OF sug.
ar to use each day-an amount which
divides well by 2. but not so easily by
8. And most of us eat three meals
says a bulletin of the United States
Food Administration.
When you were a small person, did
you ever figure out logically how much
better it was to have your cake or
candy coming" than to eat it up right
away?
T How about these three meals OF
yours? Supposing pou decide to go
without sugar at one of them-which
one shall it be?
Breakfast is the logical meal for
such discipline, isn't it? For one
thing, what you eat really doesn't need
sugar. Your fruit has sugar hidden
away in it-a different sort of sugar
from the kind you get from the sugar
bowl, but sugar nevertheless; and the
best part of the fruit sugar is that il
needn't be estimated on your days ra-
ton. Just as little tip-the dried
fruits. like prunes, apricots and peach
es, are apt to be sweeter than fresh
fruits.
The prepared breakfast foods are so
sweet in themselves that they do not
require sugar. If you have been eat
ing them with sugar you will need
about three mornings to become rec
onciled. but you will never go back
to the old way.
The cooked breakfast foods do not
have the sweetness quite as we'll de-
veloped. But if salt is used to bring
out the natural flavor, and if some
fruit-especially some dried fruit such
as dates or raisins-is added about
fifteen minutes before the cereal is re-
moved from the fire, you will remark |
afterwards on the delicious dish of
oatmeal, hominy grits, or pearl barley |
which you ate this morning. Sugar
added to ii would be an insult.
The worst is now over and only the
question of coffee remains. If others
can drink it with cream only, and like
it, why can't you? It's only matter
of education, and you'd hate to admit
that you're too old to learn, wouldn't
you?
Eggs and toast at least will offer no
Push back your chair and just think
what you have coming to you for lunch
and dinner.

GREAT PORT DEVELOPED BY
u. S. SETS TRAFFIC RECORD

mand of those 1000 black stevedores
and a great ocean steamer heavss in
to sight with thousands Of men aboard
who must be landed on record time.
All the old spirit of the Liverpool
docker come back again, he becomes
a human dyamo, and the army of black
stevedores follow him with the same
eagerness with which men follow their
leader "over the top" Here are some
examples showing just what this
means:
How Record Was Set.
When the greatest of American
transports first came over it took 50
days to unload her at Liverpool. The
next trip was better-2S days. Then
on the third trip it was decided to
send her to this French port where
the Americans had begun to take
things over.
1t was a risky experiment, they
thought. But they failed to reckon on
the major and his black stevedores,
for this is the remarkable record of
how the great vessel has been handled
at this port:
First arrival, 10000 men and sup
