Millions of people-in fact about out of 10-suner more less from indigestion. acute or chronic. Nearly every case Is caused by Acid Stomach.
 There are other stomach disorders which also sure signs of idStomach-belch- ing, heartburn, bloat after eating. food re- beating, sour gassy stomach.

Among these nervousness, biliousness, cirrhosis of the liver. rheuma- tism. impoverished blood, weakness. insom- mia. melancholia and long train of phys ical and mental Iniseries that keep the victims In miserable health year after year
 The right thing to do is to attack these ailments at their source-get rid of the acid stomach. A wonderful modern remedy called EATONIC now makes 1t easy to do this.
 One of hundreds of thousands of grateful users of EATONIC writes: "I have been troubled with intestinal indigestion for about nine years and have spent quite sum for medicine, but without relief. After using EATONIC for few days the gas and pains in my bowels disappeared EATONIC Is just the remedy l needed"

LEFT TO THE IMAGINATION
Thackerays Question as to "Never Was" Speech Would Seem an
 Easy One to Answer.

The two great English novelists, Thackeray and Dickens, although there was at one time coolness be- tween them, were generous admirers of each others genius. They left odi- ouS comparisons to foolish and petty partisans, of whom there were plenty in the following of each. But Thack- cray. according to an anecdote recent ly related once admitted to his Ameri- can friend, the eloquent Congressman Lamar, little touch of pique concern ing the public estimation of his own art. The two were driving together to a banquet of the Literary fund, at which Dickens, who was an admirable after-dinner orator, was to preside.
 "Lamar,' said Thackeray, "they say l can't speak But if l want to, l can speak every bit as well as Dickens, and I'm going to show you tonight that I can speak almost as well as you can :"
 But when the moment arrived in the course of the proceedings at which to make good his assertion, it came. and passed; and Thackeray uttered never a word. When the banquet waS oyer and the friends were returning, both silent, in their cab, Thackeray turned suddenly to his companion.
 Lamar he exclaimed. don't you think you have heard tonight the greatest speech that ever WAS never delivered?@-Youth's Companion.
