Acid-Stomach Steals Strength and
Good Feelings From Millions

acid.stomach is the real cause Of the
trouble.
Naturally, the sensible thing to do
is to strike right at the very cause Of
this trouble and clean the excess acid
out Of the stomach. There is q quick.
easy way to do this. A, wonderful
new remedy quickly removes the
excess acid without the slightest dis
comfort. It is EATONIC. Made in
the form Of tablets-they are good
to eat-just like q bit of candy. Thew
literally absorb the injurious excess
acid and carry it away through the
intestines. They also drive the bloat
out of the body-in fact you can fairly
feelit work. Make a testof EATONIC
IN your own case today. Get a big
BOX OF EATON!Cfr from your druggist.
See Tor yourself how surely it brings
quick relief in those painful attacks
ofindigestion, bitter heartburn, belch-
ing. disgusting food repeating, that
awful bloated, lumpy feeling after
eating and other stomach miseries.
Danish all Your stomach troubles go
completely that you forget you have
. stomach. Then you can eat what
you like and digest your food in COM
Tort without fear Of distressing
after effects. N"
fEATON1C does not relieve you. IL
wil not cost you one penny. You can
return it to your druggist and get
your money back. So If, you have the
slightest question about your health
IF you feel you are rot getting all
the strength out Of your food-if YOU
are notfeeling tip-top, ready for your
Work, full Of vim and vigor-do rive
EATONIC a fair trial this verv dav
and see how much better you will feel.

HlCHPRAlSES
WON IN EAST
Foremost Critics Paid Trib-
ute to Emil Oberhoffer's
Organization.

The seriously musical section of the
United States has not vet recovered
from the utter surprise and revelation
furnished by the first eastern tour of
the Minneapolis Symphony. orchestra
under the direction Of Emil ODER
hotter. =
This is the organization which will
appear at the Metropolitan opera
house on Thursday evening.
The idea of having a western or
chestra penetrate the artistic ~fastness
of New York and come off with flying
colors, was too startling a one to be
grasped all at once. although the pub
lie soon found it was up against ac-
thaf facts in the matter.
Americas most authoritative critics.
men like Henry Krehbiel, w. ]. Hen
derson and Charles Henry Meltzer, do
not "enthuse" without cause; they
are very slow to bestow praise unless
that praise is richly deserved. and the
flattering %concensus of their opinion
Is therefore all the more conclusive.
Not the smallest factor in the SEN
sation created was the fact that the
orchestra was not ten years old at the
time of its first invasion Of the east.
The repetition of this invasion until
it has become an annual event, speaks
for itself.

One Of the worst features Of acid
stomach is that very often it literally
starves its victims in the midst Of
plenty. And the strange thing
about it is that the people with acid
stomachs seldom know what their
trouble really IS.
No matter how good or wholesome
the food may be, or how much they
eat, they do not gain in strength.
This is clearly explained by the
fact that an acid-stomach cannot
properly digest food. Instead of
healthy, normal digestion, the excess
acid causes the food to sour and fer
ment. Then when this mass of sour.
fermented food, charged with excess
acid, passes into the ~intestines, it be.
comes the breeding place for ali kinds
of germs and toxic poisons. which in
turn are absorbed into the blood and
in this way distributed throughout
the entire body. And that is exactly
why it is that 30 many thousands Of
people eat and eat and keep on eating
and yet are literally starving in the
midst of plenty. Their acid-stomachs
make it absolutely impossible for
them to get the full measure of nour-
ishment out of their food. And it
doesn't take long for this poor nour-
lshment to show its i'll effects in a
weakened, emaciated body.
You may say: my stomach doesn't
hurt me-" That may be true because
many victims Of acid-stomach do not
actually suffer stomach pains. Then
again, there are millions who do suffer
all kinds Of aches and 'pains-head-
aches, rheumatic twinges, govt, lum-
bago, pains around the heart and in
the chest-who never dream that IAN

Seeding will begin in some parts Of

In Pembina county, where the re.

farther to the south, the farmers ex-
pect to be in the fields within the
next few days.
In other parts of the valley where
the fall was heavier there is likely
to be more delay, but unless a period
of unfavorable weather ensues, it is
probable hat work will be general
within the next ten days or two weeks.
A heavy acreage Of wheat is looked
for this year throughout the Red

YOU men WHO
PAY The FAMILY
SHOE BILLS

Tramping IS miles a day, Mr.. H. M.
Foreman, q. mail carrier of Allentown.
Pa, found that shoes with ordinary
soles last about one month. But he
says a pair of Neolin-soled shoes gave
him more than nine months of serv-
ice in. which time he walked over
4,00O4miles.
His experience shows how you may
save shoe money by providing your
family with Neolin-soleR shoes. which
give extra wear where other shoes
wear out quickest.
You car get Neolin-soled shoes in
any type of shoe you want. Prices
are about the same as for shoes that
give ordinary wear, sometimes they
r ever less. If your dealer HASN'T
the style you want, he ear get it for
you quickly. Remember, Neolin Soles
are created by science to be what
soles should be. They are available
everywhere for re-soling as we'll as on
