A Dead Stomach
Of What Use Is It?

Thousands? yes hundreds OF thou
sands OF people throughout America
are taking the slow death treatment
daily.
They are numbering their own
stomach, the best friend they have,
and in their sublime ignorance they
think they are putting aside the laws
OF nature.
This is no sensational statement; II
IS a startling fact. the truth of which
any honorable physician VIII not deny.

lowing daily huge quantities of pepsln
and other strong digesters, made es-
pecially to digest the food in the
stomach without any aid at all from
the digestive membrane of the stom-
ach.

trcsscd stomach in five minutes; they
do more. Taken regularly for a few
weeks they build up the rundown
stomach and make ir strong enough

WHY M'ADOO QUIT
HIS TWO OFFICES
Providence Journal Says He
Is Against Government
Ownership

Providence, r. THE Providence
journal says:
The basic reason for the with
crawal OF William c. McAdoo from
the Cabinet is not, as stated for pub
lie consumption, the fact that the
Secretary Of the Treasury found IL
Snposs!ble to live IN Washington on
his official salary. but that he found
himself in total disagreement with
what he considers tho Presidents set
purpose 20 impose Government own
Crship or Government control Of all
public utilities on this country. He
was determined 10 rernain no longer
a member Of & Cabinet which was
fast drifting into that policy.
1T IS truo that NJ. McAdoo could
not live in washington on his salary
as Secretary of the Treasury, but it
Is equally true that lie has never
been able to do this since hS first
went to Washington. It hns never
been possible for him even to main
tain his home there, outside of other
expenses on $4,000 per year.
Mr.. McAdoo has never boon a
public ownership man. He has al
ways sincerely believed that tho
Government should not bring into

its own hands the operation or own
ership OF any public utilities that
could be run as well, or better, un-
der private control. His recent OK
perlence as director general OF the
railroads not only strengthened him
in this belief, but brought him into
continuous and acrimonious discus
sion with Mr.. Wilson and some OF
his fellow -Cabinetmembers on the
subject of the future of the rail-
roads.
He has insisted from tho start
that the roads be returned TO their
owners at the earliest possible mo-
ment after the close of the war, con-
sistent with the public safety and
on the stipulation of certain changes
regarding cooperation OF movement
and reduction of unnecessary COM
petition. His ideas have been BIT
ter!y opposed. With the signing OF
the armistice and the bringing up
of the entire question of transporta-
tion readjustment, the situation be-
came so acute that lie was compelled
20 make his choice between resign
ing as a member OF the Presidents
official family, or remaining in OF
flee and helping to formulate a pol
icy entirely distastoful to him.
When the President gave his sane
tion TO the taking over OF the cables
by Secretary Burleson, Mr.. McAdoo
vigorously opposed this move as one
disastrous alike to the political for
tunes OF the administration and the
interests of the United States. The
Journal is in possession of the fact
that ne presented these ideas TO Mr..
Wilson without any mincing of words
at the time he wrote his letter of
/, resignation.
AT least two other members of
the cabinet are in the same frame
of mind as Mr.. McAdoo, and men
within administration circles are well
aware that in this attitude the in
surgents are supported by Colonel
House, who reached the parting of
the ways with Mr.. Burleson several
months ago.
IF Mr.. McAdoo has ambitions in
the direction of the Presidential
nomination in 1920, he will not only
not be supported by friends of the
present administration, but will be
strenuously opposed by them. They
are already beginning to suggest that
the Secretary of the Treasury has
seen fit to disassociate himself with
Mr.. Wilson because OF these ambl-
tions. Men who are closest to Mr..
Mcdoo. however, believe that he has
no desier 10 run for the Presidency,
and that the only reason for his
present step is his determination not
to put himself in a false light among
/ those who have been his associates
for years in his commercial enter
prises. who well know his attitude
on Government ownership and who
would resent his further connection
with an administration which has
started along that path.
Mr.. McAdoo's future lies in the
commercial world. His withdrawal
from private life at this time is proof
that he does not intend to sacrifice
the confidence and respect of COM
mercial and financial leaders who
would naturally come into close con-
tact with him in his future business
career"

IT'S NOT YOUR HEART;
IT'S YOUR KIDNEYS

Kidney disease is no respecter of
persons. 1t attacks all classes, re-
gardless of age, sex or conditions.
A majority of the ills affecting peo-
pie to-day can be traced back to the
kidney trouble.
Tho kidneys are the most import
ant organs of the body. They are the
fllterers, the purifiers, of your blood.
If the poisons which are swept from
the tissues by the blood are not ELI
minated through the kidneys, disease
OF one form or another will claim
you as n victim.
Kidney disease is usually indicat-
ed by WEAKNESS, sleeplessness, ner-
vousness, dependency, backache,
stomach trouble, difficulty when uri-
mating, pain in loins and lower abdo-
men, gall stones. gravel, rheumatism,
sciatica and lumbago.
All these arrangements are ma
ture's signals to warn you that the
