There are millions Of people WAC
suffer almost daily from the horrors
of an Observation-Disclosures sour
gassy, stomach; distressing nea!.-
burn; sickening food-repeating; pam,
ful bloat and that miserable, Putteo

Of these people have tried treatment
after treatment; medicine after medl-
cine; others have gone to doctors
and stomach specialists and some 20
hospitals but in spite OF all OF tneir
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 q lot Of ser
ious trouble. Dyspepsia, rheumatism,

headache, dizzy spells, nervousness,
slceplessness, mental depression, mel,
ancholla, 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 ofthe stom-
ach. The lives of those who suffer
from these serious troubles are nothing
short of daily agony. Surely, then,

METHODISTS OF BLACKSTONE
REJOICE OVER BIG SUCCESS

Editor Virsinian;
Sir,-The Methodsts Of Blackstone
are rejoicing over the success OF the
great centenary movement here The
allotment IL the Blackstone church
was <l7, 900 on Sunday night last
Director S. l.. Barrow reported that
the subscription had reached $4,000,
which means $4,000 over the allot-
ment.

work OF this church in the centenary

Methodist church on last Sunday
night, two strong and appealing ad-
dresses were delivered by Rev c. r.

$500. At the close of the speaking.
subscriptions were called for when 1t
was learned that under the leader
ship OF Director Stone the entire
amount was already subscribed. But
voluntary subscriptions were accepted,
and when tho meeting closed II was
learned that the Blackstone commun-
ity had pledged 1000 instead Of the
$500 asked for, for the Salvation
Army work.
Showing the Blackstone spirit II
may be noted that on a recent Sunday
the Christian church sought to raise
hampering indebtedness on its
church building This was easily ac-
complished at q day service, and at

According to the information in the let
ter 1000 bags of sugar had been allotted to
Bessemer, and would be shipped to the

were received at the wholesale house to

is stated by the president of the com.
