Pape's Diapepsin
For Indigestion of
Sour, Acid Stomach.
In Five Minutes No Dyspepsia
Heartburn CT any Stomach
Misery.

Sour, gassy, upset stomach, indiges-
ton, heartburn, dyspepsia; when the
food you eat ferments into gases and
upsets you; your head aches and you
feel sick and miserable, that's when
you realize the wonderful acid neu-
tralizing power in Pape's Diapepsin
1t makes all such stomach misery
due to acidity, vanish in five minutes
If your stomach is in a continuous
revolt-if you can't get it regulated,
please, for your sake, try Pape's Dia-
pepsin. It's so needless to have an
acid stomach-make your next meal
a favorite food meal, then take little
Diapepsin. There will not be any dis
tress-eat without fear. It's because
Pape's Diapepsin "realiy does" sweet
en- out-of-order stomachs that give it
its millions Of sales annually.
Get a large ffty-cent case of Pape's
Diapepsin from any drug store. It is
the quickest, surest antiacid and stom-
ach relief known. It acts almost like
magic-it is scientific, harmless and
pleasant stomach preparation which
truly belongs in every home.

PRESCOTT BOY WRITES
 FROM FRANCE ON DAY
 ARMISTICE WAS SIGNED
France, Nov. 11th, 1918.

My Dear Mother:-
 Mama this is the greatest day in the history of the world; it is the greatest day that ever expect to live in. This day (only an hour ago) the last gun was fired, and mama 1 was on the front when the last sound from our guns died away heard the last crack of one of "Fritz's" ITS that l will ever hear again. Both sides were firing heavily right up to the last minute. 1 vii tell you how it ended with me in the sector where I was.
 You remember l wrote you that 1 was back in a village having a rest; we'll this rest only lasted fire days when we were called out for the last big offensive. We went straight to our regiment who were at that time in reserve. q had another fellow helping mel 1 first saw that all our guns were we'll equipped with camou flage and then l sat back and took it easy until our regiment pulled into the line.
 We went in on the night of the 9th. We have to move up once that night and once the next morning because the Germans were moving back so fast. All day Nov. 10th our batteries gave Fritz, and Fritz in return gave us.
 That night we heard that an armis- tice was going to be signed at eleven the next morning, and that firing would cease. On the morning of the eleventh the sun came out gloriously, so did Fritzie's shells. (lt seemed that Fritz was trying to see how many shells he could throw over be- fore eleven o'clock0
 At twenty minutes till eleven l saw chaplain get killed. They buried him in the village chWch-yard with the usual military ceremonies. At exactly eleven o'clock stepped out of my office and to my ears came the strains of The Star Spangled Banner. Mama the thrill was so great that could hardly stand With an effort pulled myself to attention and saluted, even now am trembling so l can hardly write. My God, but this is a day that no living man could ever forget.
 Now the 12th-I just could not fin ish this yesterday so will try to finish it now.
