"Eiiuh-Powered" Food.

What would you think of slice of
bread that has the same food value
as q beefsteak sandwich? 1t isn't Il
dream nor an exaggerati0n. It is a
fact supported by specialists OF the
United States department of agricul-
ture. 1t is based on chemical analy-
ses of and experiments with sOy-bean
flour, NEW" product that is expect
ed to ''pinch hit" for wheat, and not
only do that, but to work in meats
place as well. The "high-powered
bread" that has the scientific resem-
blance to a beefsteak sandwich does
not even use all of the voltage" of the
.soy-bean flour. This bread has been
made from a mixture of 30 per cent
soy-bean flour and 70 per cent wheat
flour. 1t is extremely high in the
protein element and is really substi-
tute for protein foods such as meat and
cheese.

HOW DOCTORS
TREAT COLDS r. 2 !.
AND THE FLU
FIRST Step in Treatment is a Brisk
PurgatiVe With CaIOtabs, the New
Nausealess CalOmel.

Doctors have found by experience
that no medicine for colds and inf1u-
enza can be depended upon for full
effectiveness until the liver is made
thoroughly active. That is why the
first step in the treatment is the new,
nausealess Calomel. called Calotabs,
which is free from :. the sickening,
weakening. and salivating effects of
the old style calomel. Doctors also
point out the fact that an avtive liver
goes a long way towards preventing
influenza and is one of the most i'm,
portant factors in enabling the pa
tent to successfully withstand an at
tack and ward off pneumonia.
One Calotab on the tongue at bed
time, with swallow of water-that's
all. No salts, no nausea, nor the
slightest interference with your eat
ing, pleasure or work. Next morning
your liver is active, your system is
purified, and you are feeling fine, with
a hearty appetite for breakfast. Drug
gists sell Calotabs only in original
sealed packages, price thirty-five
cents. Your money will be cheerfully
refunded if YOU do not find them de-
lightful. adv

COTTON HOLDING
AGENT LINES UP
INTERESTS HERE

Capt. l. H. Stevens, Of New Orleans,
who has only recently been discharg-
ed from the army, was in Americas
for few hours today lining up the
cotton men of Americas behind the
holding propaganda movement as or
ganized by Theodore v. Wensel, presi-
dent of the Rumble G Wensel COM
pany, cotton factors of Natchez. Miss.
Yesterday he attended the cotton hold,
ing meeting in Macon.
IF We can reduce our acreage this
year to such point that the world
will see that there will be a crop of
only 100000 bales this fall, the
spinners will begin to buy our present
crop of cotton at the market, price or
better. The two things go together
holding the present crop and reduc-
ing acreage for the next crop. The
solution is in the hands of the South
which has an absolute monopoly on
cotton. All that is necessary is to
organize, and Mr. Wensel is repre-
senting the cotton factors of the
South in shaping sentiment to make
the holding and acreage reduction
movement a success.
Capt. Stevens was accompanied to
Americus by George P. Munro. of
Buena Vista, who is his cousin. They
had not seen each other since Captain
Stevens was small child, and they
met at Macon by chance. He accom-
panied Mr. Munro to Buena Vista for
a short visit Mr.. Munro is the father
OF Capt. George N. Munro, who was
slain in France, the details of his
death being published in The Times
Recorder Thursday.

BETRAYERISHATED
Latin Countries ExeCrate Mem.
DRY of Judas IsCariOt.
Fsaa Effigy Burned, Hanged and
Scourged Throughout Spain and
Portugal on Good Frlday-Pic-
turesque Mexican Rite.

In Latin countries the worst per
secuted person is Judas Iscariot. They
never let up on him. When it comes
TO chronic trouble he has the Wander
ing Jew beaten to a fragile.
On Good Friday of each year he Is
burned, hanged and scourged all over
Spain and Portugal.
On board of Portuguese ships he is
ducked, dashed to the capstan and
beaten to tatters with knOtted ropes,
kicked about the deck, hanged to the
yardarm and finally burned. The
ships bell is kept going all the time,
and the sailors work themselves into
a frenzy over the performance.
In all such affairs Judas. of course,
is represented by an efiigy-usually a
suit of clothes properly stuffed and
provided with a head and hands of
sorts. He may also have long beard,
by which to yank him insultingly
about.
The city of Lisbon, however. makes
the really impressive Good Friday
celebration. In front of nearly every
house a grotesque figure supposed to
represent the arch-betrayer is set on
q sort of funeral pyre or else sus-
pended high in air by rope across
the street. In the latter case it Is
filled with straw and gunpowder.
At stroke of noon the bell of the
great cathedral tolls. Fire is set to
all the pyres and the dangling eff
gies are exploded.
All over South America Judas is
hanged on Good Friday. In Mexico
street vendors peddle pasteboard fig
ures clad in gaudy paper costumes.
The more hideous they are the better
they sell. On every block there is at
least one 1ife-size dummy hanging
from line across the street. At the
first stroke of u all of them are
thrown into bOnfres. The excitement
is tremendous.
In front of the Jockey club in Mex
leo City Judas assumes the character
of a superbly dressed caballero on
horseback. Steed and rider are of
Uul JuS IC
real. The saddle has silver trappingS,
the bride is Ornamented with silver,
stripes of silver dollars run down the
pantaloons, the handsome riding boots
have silver spurs and on the head is a
sombrero with a band of silver bull
lion.
This very gorgeous Judas and his
horse are stuffed with money. In fact,
they have been fed on silver coins
until they are fat with the diet.
At noon out comes a servant from
the club with a lighted taper on the
end of a long pole. TumultuOus cheers
from the great crowd assembled. The
bell of the cathedral sounds the hour
and fuse is ignited, exploding a
charge of gunpOwder contained in the
effigy. A wild struggle for the coins
and accoutrements winds up the pic
tureSQue ceremony.

Miidst0f PLENTY
Acid-Stomach Steals Strength and
Good Feelings From Millions

One of the worst features of acid
stomach is that very often it literally
sSarves it's 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
cat, 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 all 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 so 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-
ishment to show its i'll effects in a
weakened, emaciated body.
Youmay 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
al kinds of aches and pains-head-
aches, rheumatic twinges, gout, lum-
bago, pains around the heart and in
the chest-who never dream that an

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 a quick,
easy way to do this. A wonderful
new remedy quickly removes the
excess acid without the slightest dis
comfort. 1t is EATONIC. Made in
the form of tablets-they are good
to eat-just like a bit of candy. They
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
feelitwork. Make tof EATONIC
in your own case today. Get a big
box of EATONIC from your druggist.
See for 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 so
completely that you forget you have
a stomach. Then you can eat what
you like and digest your food in com
fort without fear of distressing
after effects.
IfEATONIC does not relieve you, it
will 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 not feeling tip-top, ready for your
work, full of vim and vigor-do give
EATONIC a fair trial this very dav
and see how much better. ,rr,,, w nj 81
