Make This Test For
Acid Stomach

There are millions of people who
suffer almost daily from the horrors
OF an Observation-Disclosures; sour,
gassy, stomach distressing heartburn
%sickening food-repeating; painful
boat and that miserable, pulled up
lumpy feeling after eating. Many OF
these people have tried treatment after
treatment; medicine after medicine
others have gone to doctors and stom-
Rch specialists and some to hospitals,
but In spite of all of their efforts they
have obtained no lasting relief or a
permanent cure.
These symptoms simply mean acid
stomach. IL allowed to run on, they
are very likely to u a lot of seri-
Gus trouble. Dyspepsia, rheumatism,
govt. lumbago, sciatica, splitting head
ache. dizzy spells, nervousness, sleep
l~essness. mental depression, melan-
chOlia, a feeling of listlessness and
all-goneness-these are just a few of
the disorders which car be traced to
acid-stomach. AS a matter Of fact,
acid-stomach Is often the direct cause
of those almost "incurable conditions
known as catarrh of the stomach, in
testinal ulcer, and cancer of the stom-
ach. The lives of those who suffer
from these serious troubles are moth
ing short Of daily agony. Surely,
then, you must see how important 1T
is to go at once to the seat Of the
trouble - acid-stomach. You know
The Miller press. [volume] (Miller, S.D.) 190?-current, 1919-05-22

what acid-mouth does to the teeth
how IL eats right through the hard
enamel and causes them to decay.
Think then of the havoc that must
be caused by excess acid in the stom-
achi
Even if you are not suffering any
immediate stomach pains, but are not
feeling just as fit and fine as you
should, you should by all means make
this test: Go to your drug store at
once and get a big box of EATONIC.
1t is in the form of pleasant-tasting
tablets-you eat them like a bit Of
candy. EATONIC is prepared for just
n purpOse-correcting acid-stOmach
by driving out the excess acid.
EAT0NIC literally absorbs the excess
acid. 1t brings instant relief from
the pains of Indigestion, heartburn,
belching, sour. gassy stomach, bloat,
etc. 1t makes the stomach pure, sweet,
cool and comfortable, puts it in a nor
NAL, healthy condition, so that your
food Is properly dlgested. You need
every bit of strength you can possibly
get out of the food You eat-and
EATONIC helps you get it.
Don't put this test off if you value
your future good health and happi-
ness. You run no chance at all be-
cause EATONIC is absolutely guar
anteed to give you relief or your drug
gist will refund your money. The

"We have such q wild name" said
Mr.. Fox Sparrow.
isn't il a fine name?" said Mrs.
Fox Sparrow.
And yet we aren't wild in the least;
that is, we're not wild like foxes are
said Mr.. Fox Sparrow.
w have all the pleasure of a wild
name without being Wild" said Mrs.
Fox Sparrow. And. too, II makes our
name d little bit more unusual and a
little finer than just having it plain
Sparrow. It's more stylish to- have q
name like Mrs. Fox Sparrow.
People always have two names at
least. ] believe, 80 we should, too,
ehf"
"We should" agreed Mr.. Fox Spar
row.
81 do love your reddish brown coat"
said Mrs. Fox Sparrow, land your
spotted waistcoat. 1t is very stylish.
I think"
you have a dress to match it,"
said Mr.. Fox Sparrow.
"Ah, yes / am so much pleased with
my own dress. | like to moult and i'm.
prove my feathers, but l like to have
them come back the same way as they
were. that is the same color and of the
same kind"
Perhaps it is because OF our red
dish brown feathers that We are called
fox sparrows." said Mr.. Fox Spar
row.
Are foxes reddish brown, and have
they ~feathers?" asked Mrs. Fox Spar
row.
"Oh. no, my love- said Mr.. Fox
Sparrow, trying not To smile at her.
for that might have hurt her feelings,
"foxes haven't feathers. They have
fur. And their fur. l believe, is Of
different colors.
Sometimes it is gray and ONE
times, il is true, IL is red. SO, perhaps,
you see, because there is red i'm our
feathers, the same reddish shade
which foxes have in their fur, that we
are called the fox sparrows."
"Well, we're settled for the sum
mer," said Mrs. Fox Sparrow. "It Is
nice and cool here, and in the winter
we were south where it was nice and
warm.

to dig for hidden treasures"
"Yes," said Mr.. Fox Sparrow, '"and
we were like chickens, hens and roost-
ers. for they dig and scratch the earth
to see what they can find.
ut was such fun to look under the
leaves and to stop to talk over what
we had found. We did have a fine
winter.
well. what are your plans nowy"
"Im going to build a nest" said
Mrs. Fox Sparrow, ''of moss and soft
grass for . lining. and ! shall put In
some nice feathers, too, so it will be
comfy when the Ave little ~greenish-
blue eggs which l shall lay soon turn
into birdlogs.
"The eggs will have nice little red
dish brown spots on them, which
shows that they are to have reddish
brown feathers later on. OF course
that doesn't follow with most birds.
But ihC " inilh thC utdl fitllC
reddish-brown birds there will be when
the reddish-brown spots and the green

"Ah." said Mr.. Fox Sparrow. "let's
get together some of our friends and
tell them about our little birdlirgs
which will come as soon as you lay the
eggs and then hatch them out"
And the other Mrs. Fox Sparrows
VIII be doing the same. Spring is a
busy time of 1.-The year, you know"
said Mrs. Fox Sparrow.
"Yes. they probably will be doing
the same" said Mr.. Fox Sparrow.

And every Mr.. Fox Sparrow said
that all the Mrs. Fox Sparrows were

SO they all sang the most glorious

VICTORY LOAN WILL
PUT COUNTRY BACK
ON PEACE BASIS
Billions Needed To Pay Produc-
ers And Teach Manned
Soldiers New Trades.


Once in a while someone asks:
Whats the need of another Liberty
Loan now that the wars over?"
Officials of the War Loan organiza-
ton in this district have replied by
outlining some Of the purposes for
which money will be needed by the
Government next spring.
It is shown that the amount raised
by the Fourth Liberty Loan lasted
only until December first. Expendi-
lures are going on now at the rate
Of nearly two billion dollars month.
There will be a gradual reduction of
treasury disbursements as the war
debts are wiped out. The revenue
from taxes will not Be sufficient to
pay all the bins. so the people will be
called upon to provide the money by
subscribing to Government bonds. The
issue will be for not more than six
billion dollars.
Pay Day at Home.
This enormous outlay Of money Is
going to pay on the army Of produc-
ers at home-the farmers, merchants,
manufacturers and others. America
had just begun to fight when the Hun
decided it was time to quit. Allied
leaders expected the war to last an
other year and the United States Gov
ernment was turning ont ships, arms,
ammunition and food with view to
overwhelming Germany next fall.
Treasury officials have revealed that
America would have had tank at the
front for every seventy-five feet of the
line in 1919-thirty thousand tanks!
We would have had ten tons of mus
tard gas ready for shipment for every
ton Germany could produce. Thou
sands of batteries of guns would have
been in action for every one America
had in 1913. Everything else was be-
ing produced in proportion.
This gigantic preparation brought
an early end to the war and saved
thousands of lives. Victory Bonds will
pay for this work which had been con-
tracted for and was being delivered
when the armistice was signed.
Army Being DemobiIized.
There are other purposes for which
money is needed.
Part of our army of two million men
must be kept in Europe until the peace
treaty is signed. These soldiers must
be fed, clothed and otherwise main
tanned. Then they must be brought
home. The sick and wounded must
be cared for in hospitals. The army
must be demobilized. There are thou
sands of manned soldiers, heroes of
the great war, who must be taught
selfsupporting trades and given an
opportunity to earn their living.
This reconstruction work at ', me
must be carried on. The j. lust be
finished. The Anerica gsople who
furnished the money TO win the war
must supply i: also to bring the nation
back to a peace basis.
