ONE OF GREATEST WRITERS
Ben Jonson Ranks In English History
Second Only TO tho Immortal
Shakespeare

Ben Jonson occupied promi-
nent position ON the British parnas-
sus. Herrick said of his wit that we
should husband it, for, should it
come to an end, the world would
have no more. Yet his words are
little read, because there is some
thing of roughness or holiness in his
style for readers who read poetry for
recreation, rather than critically.
His was a prolific muse; his pen was
seldom still. Much of his writing is
lost, and yet his surviving works are
voluminous. Dramatic composition,
some plays and most of his prose
have passed into oblivion, yet there
still remains some twenty plays,
about forty Mosques, a book Of cpl
grams, epistles, TRANSACTIONS and an
unfinished English grammar, writ
ten in English and Latin.
In his early youth he followed the
.rade of a bricklayer, which he tells
is he could not endure, so he joined
he army in Flanders. He sickened
If the sword and returned home,
with him the reputation of
! brave man, smattering of Dutch,
md an empty purse Ii was then
hat his early education, he being a
Westminster and Cambridge man,
TODD him in good stead. He began
o write for the stage. After the
leath of Shakespeare, he retained I
possession of the high /
st poetic eminenee and was made
oet-laureate by King james.

This viii Interest
Stomach Sufferers
Says Indigestion comes from an
excess of hydrochloric
acid.

A well-known authority states that
stomach trouble and indigestion is
nearly always due to acidity--acid
stomach--and not, as most folks be-
lieve, from lack of digestive juices.
He states that an excess of hydroch-
loric acid in the stomach retards di-
gestion and starts food fermentation,
then our meals sour like garbage in
can, forming acrid fluids and gases,
which initiate the stomach like a toy
balloon. We then get that heavy,
lumpy feeling in the chest, we eruc-
tate sour food, belch gas or have
heartburn, flatulence, waterbrash or
nausea.
He tells us to lay aside all digestive
aids and instead, get from any phar-
macy four ounces of Jad Salts and
take tablespoonful in a glass of
water before breakfast while it is ef-
fervescing, and furthermore, to con-
tinue this for one week. While relief
follows the first dose, it is important
to neutralize the acidity, remove the
gas-making mass, start the liver, Slim
ulate the kidneys and thus promote a
free flow of pure digestive juices.
Jad Salts is inexpensive and is
made from the acid Of grapes and
lemon juice combined with lithia and
sodium phosphate. This harmless salts
is used by thousands Of people for
stomach trouble with excellent re-
sults.--Advertisement.

SHEEP MEN HOWL

Declare Packers as Great as

to Capital to Probe
Question.

Washington, March l1.-Sheep
raisers are under the impression that
the packers have been told by the
food administration to fix maximum
price for lambs and not pay pro-
ducers more than a fixed sum, ac-
cording to testimony before the
senate agriculture committee today
by S. w. Mcclure OF Salt Lake City,
Utah. He declared the order of the
food administration licensing the
packers is equivalent to price fixing.
"We may as we'll admit that the
packers are as great as the govern
ment," Mr.. Mcclure said.
"One of the purposes of these
hearings" observed Senator Gore, the
chairman of the committee, 'is to
determine whether the food admin
istration is running the packers or
whether the packers are running the
food administration.
Mcclure is secretary OF the Nat
ional Wool Growers association.

Gray hair, however handsome, de-
notes advancing age. We all know the
advantages of a youthful appearance.
Your hair is your charm. 1t makes or
mars the face. When it fades, turns
gray and looks streaked, just few
applications Of Sage Tea and Sulphur
enhances its appearance hundred
fold.
Don't stay gray! Look young !
Either prepare the recipe at home or
get from any drug store bottle of
"Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Com
pound" which is merely the old-time
recipe improved by the addition Of
other ingredients. Thousands Of folks
recommend this ready-to-use prepara-
tion, because it darkens the hair beau
tifully, besides, no one can possibly
tell, as it darkens so naturally and
evenly. You moisten a sponge or soft
brush with it, drawing this through
the hair, taking one small strand at a
time. BY morning the gray hair disap-
pears; after another application or
two, its natural color is restored and
it becomes thick, glossy and lustrous,
and you appear years younger.
Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Com
pound is delightful toilet requisite.
It is not intended for the cure, miti-
cation or prevention of disease.-
