There is no person who can state
definitely Just when the wartime pro-
hibition ban may be lifted, but IL Is
my conviction that it will be before
September Is, and even though the
constitutional dry amendment, becom-
ing effective January 16, 1920. has
been passed, the returns from the sale
of lioucr during the time that the ban
Is lifted until national prohibition
would become effective would JUSTIFY
the present investment"
Mr.. o'Connor said he has no doubt
that the hotel keepers today are oper-
atinR at a loss. For" he said, there
is no profit in the sale Of soft drinks
and this near-beer."
The State organization Is a part OF
the nation and is in accord with the
program to test constitutionality OF
the dry amendment before the SUI
preme court. Such cooperative ac-
ton Is to be taken and resolution
indorsing the move will be presented
at the meeting.

WHY ACID STOMACH Must
CauseWeakness, Bad ealth
and Awful Misery

Trace the disease to its source. Then remove the
cause. Physicians say that more than 20 nonorganic
diseases be traced directly to Stomach,
hyperscdity they call it. Besides this, there
numerous ailments which can hardly be classified as
true diseases but which, nevertheless, untold
suffering and these too found to have their origin
in ACID-STOMACH.
Now there must be good and sufficient reasons
why 80 much human misery, suffering and III health
that affect practically every part Of the body al get
their start in q sour, sasSy belchins AcidStOmach.
There ARE such reasons-and here is one of them:
Because of excess acdty acidstoach cannot prop
erly digest food. Unless food is fully dgested its
ishing elements cannot be properly assmated. Hence
the blood becomes thin and impoverished. Even the
strongest body cannot maintain its strength very long
proper nourishmen is denied. And that Is the very
reason why many people are weak, sallow-shnned,
emaciated and anemic-slways aiingl
Here Is another reason: Excess acid causes food to
and ferment in the stomach This gives rise to
Indigestion belching sour, gassy stomach disgusting
food repeating heartburn, dyspepsia etc. Moreover,
this sour fermented, partially digesed food when it
passes the intestines sets up irritation all along the
intestinal tract-rritation frequently to
result In ulcers, catarrh and even cancer.
Just think how aedmouh ruins teeth-how the acid eats
right through the hard enamel and decay Think then
how destructive the human organism acdtomach must bel
And here e still another reason-one discovered by Prot

LIFE IN A dull. TOWN.
Oregon Community That Has Touched
Bottom, But Is Getting Back on Map.

Oregon newspapers have boasted that
in the City of Albany they have the
very ultimate in ''slow" towns. The
Manufacturer, published at Salem, says
of it:
"1he town was actually too quiet for
a Presbyterian college to live and churches
have been forced To consolidate or 90 out
of business. Children are still produced by
the poorer classes, but it's street car line
was pulled up some years ago. 1t has been
strong for Chautauquas and Three
fngered-Jack revivals, but even they have
been running behind for luck of interest
In old days saloons helped little and the
town had a brewery and farmers and
dodgers came IN from the country and
once in n while the City Marshal had
something to do and some one got into
Jail. But the Jail is permanently closed
and the Elk's Club is the only wicked
place in town"
However, there is n limit to all things,
and when Albany took a referendum ON the
question of prohibiting dogs on the street,
the citizens had noisy campaign over
the Issue and voted il down The dogs
have now taken hold of life with
renewed zesst and are tlisporting
themselves with new zeal The citizens
are still talking over the election and it
looks like the dog issue has put the
place bac| on the map. There Is talk of
holding an election tn vote bonds for n
new engine house, Citizens Committee
Is at work on the project Of repairing the
sidewalks. Albany hit The bottom, and
is on the upgrade probably due To the
stimulation of municipal life by the dog
issue. Seattle Post t-intelligencer.
