INDIGESTION
Caused by
ACid-StOmaCh

Millions of people-in fact about out Of
10--suffer more or less from indigestionJ
acute or chronic Nearly every case tA
caused by Acid-StOmach.
There are other stomach disorders which
also are sure signs of Acid stOmach--belch
ing. heartburn, boat after eating, food req
peatng, sour, gassy stomach. There are
many ailments which, while they do NOT
cause much distress in the stomach itself,
are nevertheless traceable to an acid~
stomach. Among these are nervousnesss
biliousness, cirrhosis of the liver rheuma1
tism Impoverished blood, weakness, insom~
MIA, melaneholia and long train Of phys-
zeal and mental miseries 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 it easy to do this.
One of hundreds of thousands of gratefuA
users of EATONIC writes: Il have been

THE PREVENTION OF WAR

1t should be apparent by this time
that the great majority of the Ameri-
can people demand some kind OF an
international organization to prevent
war. s
The world will simply ruin itself If
it allows these terrible conflicts to
break out periodically. Another war
would be far more costly in lives and
money ~
The constitution as already pro-
posed may need a good deal of over
hauling. But the people will be pro-
foundly dissatisfied unless some ef-
Elective form of organization is devised
to give the world the protection it
needs against quarrelsome and aggres-
|sive nations. :.
The situation should be met by all
elements in a spirit of mutual conces-
sion and compromise. Those who
have framed the constitution should
invite criticism and be willing to hear
|all objections and meet them so far
las is reasonably possible. And those
| to whom this form of constitution
seems very faulty, must devote them,
selves to the effort to frame and sub.
stitute some workable plan that will
meet the situation more effectively.

AN INDUSTRIAL CRISIS COMING
What Will Happen When Wages
Tumble? VIII There Be Riot or
Bloodshed?.
To the Editor:

10 tne UultOr. ...
Sober thoughts fill the minds OF
many of the worlds best thinkers as
they look into the future. Grave ap
prehensions are felt over the increas.
| ing industrial complications.
Will there be tumble in wages now
that the war is over? And will the
multitudes of workers accustomed tC
big wage stand idly submissive under
the very shadow of the fabulous wal
fortunes heaped together by the finan
cial reapers from the wars harvest?
There is an undeniable feeling OF
ANXIETY over the outlook. There is a
strong presentiment that somehow hu.
man history is approaching a greater
crisis than any of the past.
| One of the fiercest and most far,
reaching controversies that has arisen
between man and man in this world
| is seen in the conflict that is now be-
| ing waged between capitalists and la.
boring classes. 1t is feared by many
that we are on the eve of a mighty re-
volution.
The strained relations existing be-
tween the rich and the poor, between
the capitalist and the wage Garner,
cannot long continue. Unless some
peaceful solution OF the difficulties can
be discovered, serious results will in
evitably follow. The trust magnates
are yearly adding billions of dollars to
their already princely holdings, while
on the other nand the toiling masses
are finding their condition more and
more intoerable.
The trouble is caused by the con-
centration of the country's wealth in
the hands of few, and by the op-
preston of the laboring men in order
to increase the fortunes of these few.
Mr.. Rockefeller's income is said to be
more in ten minutes than the average
workingman receives in a year, and
there are many thousands Of other
millionaires living in. luxury, in beau
tiful mansions, and spending money
without stint for their own pleasures,
while many poor people are starving
or freezing nearby.
Those things have eXasperated the
labOring man, because they know that
a part OF the millions thus spent re-
presents their wages kept back by
fraud, as the Bible says plainly in
James 5:4 -,sr T,
But have the workingmen done just
the right thing? They have formed
unions to protect themselves against
this greed and oppression when they
should, have left the matter entirely in
the hands of the great and righteous
Judge of all the. earth. The unions
have conducted over $4,000 strikes In
the last twenty-four years, and during
these strikes much property has been
destroyed and many people have been
KILLED.
God has pronounced a terrible judg-
ment upon those who secure great
riches through fraud and oppression
Of the poor and He does not need any
help in administering the proper pun
ishment. Neither can He bless those

Ceremony Held During Heavy Pro-
German Snow Storm-"Stars and
Stripes" Tells of Decoration

In a recent copy of the "Stars and

ticle in regard to the decorating Of the
| I'd division for bravery. This division
was serving with the 21st French
corps for several days the first of Oc
tober and it was for especial bravery
and gallantry in action that the hon
ors were conferTed. The article is
unusually interesting inasmuch as Pri
vate Albert Hoffert, who is brother
of Mrs. Alvin Mieckley, residing near
Denison, and who has spent mum
ber of years in this vicinity, living
here with his parents, Mr.. and Mrs,
John Hoffert, prior to his entering the
service, is member of the I'd diyis'
| ion and shared the honors with them.
Private Hoffert has seen considerable
service, having been in France since
July, 1918. He was in the active fight
ling at St. Mihiel, Champagne and in
the Argonne forest, and was gassed,
but suffered no further injuries. At
present he Is located at Coblenz, Ger

Dear Father and Mother:
This has been week full of rather
unusual happenings that have inter
fered more or less with the things
that we call our regular work, but
which we hope may after all contrib
ute something to the advancement Of
the Kingdom.
Two or three weeks ago during the
Sunday morning service, a strange
man walked into the church. He had
a sort of portfolio in his hand and he
walked straight up to the preacher
who happened to be visiting pastor
from another place, took a card out

who went out with the man to see
what he wanted. They had quite a
lengthy interview, and it later appear
ed that the man was a representative
of the county magistrate, who was
planning to be married soon, and
wished to have the ceremony per-
formed in the church. There seemed
to be no objection to this and per-
mission was given. A day or two
later a request came that the girls
school would sing for the occasion.
Last week a very stylishly dressed
woman called on us and invited the
four Chinese girl teachers and myself
to feast in honor Of the bride. We
have been hoping for some time that
we might be given some point OF con-
tact with women of this class--that
we might have an opportunity to do
some real work among them-and 1t

According to an announcement made

titled to select students for the 1918
year, during which no students were
