Not Gone, Says Law.

London, Nov. 21.-The inability of
the United States representatives at
Paris to deposit President Wilson S
ratification of the German treaty at
the same time those of other powers
are filed will not prevent the remain
ing allied and associated powers from
proce eding to carry the treaty into
effect. said Andrew Bonar Law. gov
ernment leader, in the house of COM
mons today. in answer to numerous
questions regarding the status of the
treaty as a result of the America n
senate's action. In answer to a Ques-
tion from Sir Donald Maclean. Mr..
Bonar Law said:
without doubt there will be no
slackening in the determination of
Great Britain to do all in her power
to take the lead in seeing that the
League of Nations becomes an instru-
ment of human progress. l think it
would be a mistake to assume that all
possibility of help from the United
States is gone" Asked whether the
acton of the United States would af-
feet the Anglo o-French-American
treaty he said:
Our undertaking in that treaty,
which so. far has been unratified by
the United States, was contingent upon
it also being carried by the United
States. Another situation might create
a new condition of affairs"

HORSES PERISH IN FIRE
Blaze Causes Loss of $4,000 on Claude
Ross Farm Mt Dover.


Fire : Wednesday night totally de-
stroyed all the outbuildings on the
farm of Claude Ross, two and a half
miles southwest of Dover. Six work
horses, harness. saddles. machinery and
$4,000 worth of alfalfa were included
in the total loss, estimated at $4,000.
The property was insured for $500.
Ross himself was severely burned
in a fruitless attempt to save his
horses from the burning barn. The
blaze started about $50 o'clock and
had gained great headway when dis
covered. Only the heroic work of
sixty neighbors saved the Ross house
from destruction, it was said. The
only good well on the place was so
close to the barn that the men were
unable to use it on account of the in
tense heat. Another we'll afforded
only a small supply of water. The
blaze was believed to have been caused
by a lighted match carelessly tossed

Pupils, instead of teachers. control
the schools of Russia under the boil

Boys and girls are herded indis-

as protest against the action Of the
master. who had reprimanded pupil.
Each class has its own committee
and usually the most popular boy rep

Starving in the
Midst Of Plenty
Acid-Stonach 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 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
toeat-just like 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
feelit work Make test of 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, sitter 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 wha1
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 day
and see how much better you viii feel.

One of the worst features Of acid
stomach is that very often it literally
starves 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
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 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. ia. ~.
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
ell kinds of. aches and pains--head-
aches, rheumatic twinges, govt, lum-
bago, pains around the heart and in
the chest-who never dream that an
