THIS RICHMOND
WOMAN EATING
HEARTILY NOW
Mrs. Frank Steele Was Forced to Live
on Light Diet Before Taking
Pepqen.

Mrs. Frank Steele, who lives at 70
FIT. Wayne Avenue, Richmond, says
that she is now able to enjoy hearty
meal for the first time in months and
gives the credit Of her new found ap-
petite to taking Pepgen. When she
tells how she was relieved people who
are likewise troubled would do well to
have confidence in her statement.
Eyes, for the first time in months
am able to enjoy hearty meal" says
Mrs. Steele. I can now eat meat, po-
tatoes, vegetables and pastry without
having indigestion afterwards. Beans
were something that always upset me
i could taste them for days. Now
they don't hurt me in the least.

my stomach. l give all credit to Pep
gen for my improved condition. Be-
fore l took it l was generally run

"My husband was very nervous
when he started to take Pepgen," says
Mrs. June KIett, 26 FIT. Wayne Ave
nue., Richmond "He couldn't sleep
soundly at night. AS result he felt
draggy during the day. His appetite
was poor.
.Since taking Pepgen he is more
cheerful and not so irritable. He eats
heartily and sleeps soundly.
From our experience we know that
Pepgen is a great tonic and we do not
hesitate to recommend it. I am now
taking it, too, and already 1t is begin
ming to make me feel stronger"
Scores of people are allowing their
bodies to wear out simply because
they do not assist nature occasionally
When a little kidney or stomach trou-
BILE is noticed it should be promptly
attended to.
Virtue will be found in Pepgen
tonic which is delicately adapted to
aid the kidneys, stomach and liver.

Half a century ago physicians be-

War Contracts

The Indianapolis News remarks with empha-
sis that the government should waste no time ad-
justing war contracts. During the war it urged
manufacturers to adapt their plants to the pro-
ducton of munitions. It put the issue up to them
as a patriotic measure Now, since the war is
over, the government should not haggle about
making adjustment with the owners that will
recompense them for their loss. Labor has a
vital interest in this adjustment too So long as
the matter is held in allegiance, manufacturers
will be at loss to know how to proceed and as
result workers will be thrown out of employment.
"Now that fighting has ceased" says the
News, "the government does not want many
things it ordered. Where the manufacturers
acted in good faith it should do likewise AS
long as the claims remain unadjusted there will
be period Of uncertainty. Business men want
to get back to peace basis. They want to know
what they can plan for the future. Labor also
wants to know this The government should not
haggle about technicalities. Many things have
been done in emergency and so long as there
has been no graft attached the people were sat-
isfied. All the manufacturers want now is fair
treatment and quick action"

More than 200 citizens were killed. One
hundred were wounded. During the days OF the
revolution the disorderly elements of Berlin, the
criminals and crooks, held sway. Every store
near police headquarters was systematically
looted. One youth who was captured had $4,000
marks worth of jewels.
Property loss is estimated at $25OO,OOO.
Government buildings and newspaper plants were
wrecked. The loss sustained by merchants has
not been estimated.
The folly of Bolshevism needs no better Illus
tration than the Berlin riots offer. What Lenine
and Trotzky did to Russia is known to every
school boy. Many decades will pass before that
country RECEIVERS from the nefarious blow struck
by the insane followers of the Bolshevik pro-
gram.
Bolshevism is not democracy. It is simon
pure anarchy. After it has swept through a
country, desolation and ruin mark it's wake.
Carrying within itself the germs of arson, pill
lage and murder, it cannot do constructive work.
It does not elevate people to a freer govern
nent. It does not relieve conditions ameiorate
economic hardships; but intensifies suffering and
leaves the masses distracted mentally deranged,
and financially worse off than before.
Bolshevism breeds where two conditions pre-
and lack of opportunity. In our
country democracy governs, the courts are open
to the rich and poor, no tyrant holds sway and
rules our destiny. Opportunity for economic bet
terment is found everywhere. Ability and appli-
cation make for success here. Millions of poor
immigrants, landing on our shores with no money
and no knowledge of our customs, language and
business methods, have attained a competency
for old age and many have died rated as rich
men in their communities.

Taking.

Pepgen Is not a secret remedy. The

it. All of the ingredients are careful
ly selected and scientifically COM
pounded by the special Pepgen pro-
cess in which neither sugar nor alco-
hol is used
Persons with kidney Ills should care
fully avoid sugar as should also peo-
pie with weak stomachs. Sugar often
produces what is called saccharine fer
ment. Alcohol is very bad for people
who are subject to rheumatism and
even the slightest amount of this
stimulent sometimes produces an at

spasmodic pain in the stomach and

high degree. 1t aids and invigorates
digestion. Peruvian bark, an anti
malarial agent Is Of service in debility
and wasting diseases, pallor. improv-
erished blood and feeble recuperative
power. Fringe Tree Bark exerts a
special influence upon the liver. It is
of benefit where there is yellowness Of
the skin and eyes and a sense of un-
easiness in the right side. Black Co

muscular system is recommended for
rheumatism, neuralgia and lumbago.
Plantain leaves contain properties
valuable in kidney and bladder de-
rangement.

The Nation is Dry

State legislatures ratified the federal amend
ment providing for the prohibition Of the manu-
facture and sale of liquor with such rapidity this
week that the country experienced trouble in
keeping up with the pace.
Politicians evidently saw that prohibition was
to win with rush so they jumped on the water
wagon with vim that amused the drys who were
standing aside watching the procession of states
joining the prohibition movement.
No one has questioned for two years that pro-
hibition was bound to win. Enlightened public
opinion was back of the movement with such
force that the vets had no show or chance of de-
feating it with an eleventh hour attack.
The liquor elements saw the handwriting on
the wall two years ago. It fought hard to hold
its grip on the public, but the campaign which
had been waged for generation in the schools
and churches would not be checked. It's cumu-
lative effect is to be this week in the rati-
fication of the federal amendment by one state
after another without hitch or argument, in fact
with rapidity that even surprised the temper
ance people who had not hoped to have enough
states ratfy the measure until March at the
earliest.

nerves wouldn't relax and often l
would lie awake for hours. 1 do not
think there is anything that will COM
pletely break down the system quicker
than lack of sound sleep.
"My stomach became disordered.
Food soured and caused heartburn.
Gas formed and pressed up against my
heart until I was short of breath. AS
anybody who has stomach trouble
knows, l was subject to headaches and
dizzy spells.
"Since taking Pepgen almost all Of
these unpleasant symptoms have left
me. l sleep like a tired child for
seven or eight hours. l seldom wake
up during that time. When l get up
feel refreshed and do not have that
tired feeling l used to have"
