"Pape's Diapensin" is the
quickest and surest
Stomach relief.

You 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 a 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 sweented, and
they eat their favorite foods without
fear.
If your stomach doesn't take care
of your liberal limit without rebellion;
if your food is 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
wonderfu1-it stops food souring and
sets things straight, so gently and
easily that it is really astonishing.
Your. stomach will digest your meals

BAKER GRILLED
BY COMMITTEE
OF i. S. SENATE

Washington, Jan. 11-Secretary
Bakers examination today before the
Senate military committee was warm
ed up by rapid cross fire of ques-
tons by senators of both parties who
did not agree with the generally favor
able view of war preparations depict
ed by Mr.. Bakers statement of yes
terday.
The senators said his declaration
that war supplies were adequate would
mislead the country. Senator Weeks
declared the country Should not be
lulled to sleep by a general statement
of facts that don't exist"
Mr.. Baker explained that he meant
to convey only the impression that all
the men ready for the fighting line
were adequately equipped.
Senators Wadsworth and Weeks,
Republicans, and Senators Chamber
lain and Hitchcock, Democrats, took
the lead in cross examining the secre-
tary, and at times handled him with
out gloves.

a systematic basis. The orders, which
are given out ON the average of ESQ
each day will be indexed and will be
so systematized that the committee
will be enabled to tell just which
families are in need of fuel. 1t was
learned today that the Bridgeport
committee is the only one in the state
having a coal line.
Encountering considerable difficulty
in obtaining coal from retail and
wholesale dealers, the members of the
Coal Peddlers' Association contem-
plate the formation of a corporation
and establishing q coal yard. They
already have an option on the yards
of the East Side Coal Co., and will
make final arrangements at meeting
scheduled to be held tomorrow. The
peddlers feel that they could do much
good in this manner and the plan is
heartily approved by Administrator
Siemon. ~
Despite the arrival of both hard
and soft COAL Chairman Siemon said.
1.-THE situation is the same as it was
1.-TWO weeks ago. The committee is
1able to make the government keep
promises
Harry Walker, chairman of a sub
committee, has been in New York
several days and is today in Boston

In the matter Of fuel conserva-
ton the committee has not received
definite assurances from the Pastors
Association, priests, theatres, saloon
keepers or clubs.
There is a lack of cooperation
from all Sides" said Siemon. Light
less nights are not being observed as
they should and manufacturers, civic
and social bodies are slow to respond
Several of the larger department
stores, including Rowland Dry Good:
Co. and the D. NJ. Read Co., have Sc
an example by shutting off thei1
lights every night in the, week.
The police are keeping record O.
the violators and are making reports

night was the United Illuminating
Co, which kept a number of light
