IN five MINUTES
NO SICK STOMACH
INDIGESTION, Gas
"Pape's Diapepsin" is the
quickest and surest
Stomach relief.

Kou don't know what upset your
stomach-which portion of the food
did the damage-do you? Well don't
bother If your stomach is in a re-
volt; If sick, gassy and upset, and
what you just ate has fermented and
turned sour; head dizzy and aches;
belch gases and acids and eructate
undigested food; breath foul, tongue
coated-just take little Pape's Dia-
pepsin to neutralize acidity and in
five minutes you wonder what be-
came Of the indigestion and distress.
Millions of men and women today
know that it is needless to nave dys-
pepsia. A little Diapepsin occasion
ally keeps the stomach sweetened, and
they eat their favorite foods without
fear.
II your stomach doesn't take care
of your liberal limit without rebellion;
if your food is a damage instead of
a help, remember the quickest, surest,
most harmless antacid is Pape's Dia-
pepsin which costs only fifty cents for
a large case at drug stores. It's truly
wonderful--it stops food souring and
sets things straight, so gently and
easily that it is really astonishing
Your stomach will digest your meals
If you keep acids neutralized.-Adv.

barrels of beer in excess of their out
police court a farmer was summoned
for feeding flour to pigs. His defence
was that it was more in the interest
of the nation that barley should be
used for feeding stock than for MAX
ing beer. The case was adjourned
for a fortnight.

WHY HAIR FALLS OUT

Dandruf causes a feverish irritation
of the scalp, the hair roots shrink,
loosen and then the hair comes out
fast. To stop falling hair at once and
rid the scalp of every particle of
dandruff, get a small bottle of Dan
derine at any drug store, pour little
in your hand and rub well into the
scalp. After a few applications all
dandruff disappears and the hair
stops coming out.-Adv.

He KILLS THE TREES

Wherever the Hun has gone, there
he las left wanton, needless desOla-
titn-towns and villages sacked and
burned, cathedrals~ destroyed, the un-
OFFENDING trees felled to earth in his
diabolic purpose to create a desert
where the labor of centuries had made
the lands to smile. This is not war,
but the hellish instinct of barbaric
vandalism
We have pledged our men, our
money and II resources to over
whelm this ruthless force that hates
all other progress than it's own. Come
forward, America, with your support !!
Enlist every dollar you can save and
spare to this supremely necessary end /,
No man has done his duty until he
has bought all the Liberty Bonds he
has the cash to pay for and all he can
pay for in installments in the six
months to come.

H HOME FRONT

The battle front in Europe is not
the only American front. There is a
home front, and our people at home
should be as patriotic as our men in
uniform in foreign lands.
Every American soldier who has
fallen in France, every American sail
or who has died for his country's
cause has given his life for his peo-
pie. Surely we, their people, can
lend u money to our Nation, their
country.
The Fourth Liberty Loan is. the
fighting loan. Its great success will
bring comfort and encouragement and
a deep sense of pride to our Army
and our Navy, and to Allies; it
will bring encouragement to our enc
mics. It's success means American
victory, Prussian defeat.
The fourth loan is the fighting loan,
the soldiers loan.

WHAT'S BACK OF YOUR BONDS

A United States Liberty Bond is
the safest, best secured investment in
the entire world today. Back of it
are the almost unlimited of
the richest country in the whole
world. The mineral wealth in our
mountains, the agricultural wealth
of our plains, the oil sweeping through
our soil, river banks bristling
with industrial plants, our cities with
their wealth of real estate. our for
ests and Our herds-all these and
much more, are the collateral our
Government offers in it's promise to
pay back every dollar invested in the
purchase of Liberty Bonds.
Pledge yourself, then, to buy all
the Liberty Bonds you can pay for
with all your savings in the next half
year-and save as you never saved
before to secure a speedy and a last
ing peace!

"ON-WITH THE TANKS"

Smash 'em and crash 'em and treat
'em rough!

stuff!

While they go oL-with tho tanks
Yes, on with the tanks, ana IN with
the ships, and on with the bullets,
and on with the guns, and or with the
bayonettes, and on with your dollars
to send them over and keep them
there and send them forward-forward
to Berlin!
Buy Liberty Bonds with every dol
lar you can possibly spare and then
buy more on installments with all
you can save in the months to come.
Six billion dollars is a vast sum, but
it's the least we can do for the boys
who are fighting for us. Get back of
the Loan-buy more Bonds!

before : left and the papers was
signed.
Well, as I say, l layed the card in
the desk and this day along in the
summer l come acrost 1t and took it
down to the bank and sure enough
they give me a brand new 500 bond.
And when the proper time come, l
started homewards bound and John
met me at the door with his Well
daddy and etc. and it was a desperate
case where l false move meant panic.
But always at my best in a crisis,
l dipped into that pocket and brought
out that Liberty Bond and said
This" And you car believe it or
not, but it ven over bigger than any
thing l had broughten him.
Well, you don't usually half to whip
him to the supper table, but this night
all the men and women in the ward
nnder 10 yrs. old had to be showed
that bond before he would eat. And
when he went to bed, so did Mr.. Bond,
with a pillow over it to keep it warm.
Well, to make a short story out of
it, the bond is living in Mr.. Johns
desk, but it m out at least once
a day for an airing. And Mr.. John
has promised to let me take it and
put it away for him-as soon as I get
him another to look at in his idle
moments. So I've got to buy him an
other in the Fourth Liberty Loan. AS
for interest day, he's looking for
wards to it like it was Xmas or some
thing and his int. is going for thrift
stamps to stick on his card.
So all and all, it looks to me like
other parents that was up VS.. it like l
was wouldn't make no mistake if they
done what 1 done. And it amt throw.
ing the dough away, you know, be-
cause when the principle of these
here bonds m due our 6 yr. olds
won be no 6 yr. olds no more, but
they will where they can use a $500
or 2 and if they amt got it themself,
they are cOmeing to their old man for
it. But if they have got it, so much
less year and tear on the old man.
And you ought to see the way he
loves that bond. | wished I was it..
