SERVICE MEN WILL RECEIVE
THEIR SOLDIER BONUS OF
SIS PER MONTH ABOUT JAN.

Gov. Burnquist has signed the law
passed by the recent session of the
state legislature which guarantees tc
all honorably discharged Minnesota
soldiers the sum of SIS per month
as bonus for each month in service
The American Legion is directly
responsible for this legislation, and
indicitiv,e of what influence they will
have in shaping affairs when once
thoroughly organized Every SER
vice man should become member Of
the Legion at the earliest opportun-
ity. The larger the membership en-
rolled in this state before Oct. IL
1919, the larger voice Minnesota will
have in shaping the constitution OF
the national body which will meet in
Minneapolis starting Nov. II, for the
purpose of effecting permanent
organization.
The money for this purpose will be
raised by issuing certificates of in
debtedness against the state, and the
amount will be given the service man
in lump sum instead of in monthly
installments as first suggested. 1t is
estimated that Stearns county's quota
will be about 100000.
The board to handle the distribu-
ton of this fund is being organized
and it is expected that not later than
the first of the year the money will be
available.
The necessary instructions to the
serviceymen will be sent to all of the
American Legion organi in the
state as 500 as ready. Of course this
information can be secured elsewhere
but the Legion will be in a position tt
assist all service men in this par.
ticular -,
The board having charge of tie
distribution have rightly decided that
slackers and draft .evaders forced in
to service will not be eligible to par
ticipate in this fund. x

the pieces in place so that they are

Make This TEST For
Acid Stomach

There are millions of people who
suffer almost daily from the horrors
OF a n Observation-Disclosures; sour,
gassy, stomach; distressing heartburn :
slckening food-repeating; painful
bloat 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-
ach 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. If allowed to run on, they
are very likely to cause a lot of seri-
Ous trouble. Dyspepsia, rheumatism,
govt, lumbago, sciatica, splitting head
ache, dizzy spells, nervousness. sleep
~lessness, mental depression, melan-
cholia, a feeling Of ~listlessness and
all-goneness-these are just a few Of
the disorders which can 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 it
is. to go at once to the seat Of the
trouble acid-Stomach. You know

what acid-mouth does to the teeth
how 1t 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-
ach!
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.
EATONIC literally absorbs the excess
acid. 1t brings instant relief from
the pains Of indigestion, heartburn,
belching, sour, gassy stomach. bloat,
etc. II makes the stomach pure. sweet,
cool and comfortable, puts 1t in a nor
NAL, healthy condition, so that your
food is properly digested. You need
every bit of strength you can possibly
get out of the food You eat-and
EATONIC helps you get 1t.
Don't put this test off II 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
cost Is q mere trife.
