How cid-Stomach, with its day
after-day sufferings, does take the JOY
out of lifel Not only that - Acid
Stomach is always undermining ones
health. Think of what acid does to
the teeth-how the acid eats through
the enamel, causing them to decay.
Is it any wonder, then, that Acid
Stomach saps the strength of the
strongest bodies and wrecks the health
of so many people?
You see ACID-STOMACH victims
everywhere always ailing. They can't
tell exactly what is the matter; all
they say is, 81 don't feel welP'--"I'm
all in; tired, sickly." If they only
knew it, nine times out of ten it is
Acid Stomach that is ailing them.
It surely makes good digestion diff
cult, causes food to sour and fer
ment in the bowels, weakens the
blood and fills the system with poi
sons. 1t prevents one from getting
the full strength out of their food.

Who ever thinks NOWADAYS that
the sun is an hour behind the clock :?
Who ever tells himself it really is
. o'clock when it is 6? We go
peaceablv 10 bed when the clock tells
US to; we arise by the same token;
we eat, play and work by the Pro-
rlcthean instrument which. for war
ana common sense purposes. Is
stealing so golden minutes every day
from the sun to benefit the human
race. And nary vulture of any
description is tearing at the clock S
vitals for filching the same.
Here and there is little petty
tnievery such as the beginning of
baseball games at $50 O'clock that
used TO begin at 3 o'clock: but the
public is too hAsy with great work.
and at present with the races and
golf for recreation, to worry about
that. In general. America is living
by the clock as it should do, and the
wisdom of the daylight savings law
is a thousand times manifest.
