CONQUEST OF THE AIR.
AERIAL SERVICE FOR PAssEN. GERS, MAIL AND MER-
 CHANDISE.
BlRD MEM MEET NEXT MONTH
Big Convention of Pan-AmerIcan Aeronauts Will Stimulate Enlist ments in the United States
 Air Service.

Atlantic City, New Jersey, will be the Mecca for large gathering of American men, and representatives or foreign countries, who will be at traeted by the first Pan-American Aeronautics Convention, which meets there in May
 Captain Charles J. Glidden. of the U. s. Air Service, Military Aeronau- tics, now stationed in the admtnistra- tf*e department of the United States Flying School, Southerfield, Georgra, says:
 ''The Pan American Aeronautics Convention and exhibition to be held at Atlantic City during the month of May will bring to the attention of the American people the wonderful pro- gross of aviation. The work of air craft during the war establishes it's practicability for commercial uses and insures the creation in this coun- try of complete aerial service caIl- meeting all cities and towns for the transportation of persons, mail and merchandise.
 Before the close of 1920 I conn., dently predict this service will be in full operation with extensions to all countries on this hemisphere In the United States trunk lines will be es- tablished across the country which will place every city and town within six hours from some twenty-four dis f7,ih fi11o operation our extensive coast line could be put under complete protec- tion from any possible invasion. Thousands of college trained aviators In and out of the service are now waiting to join in the operation Of an aerial service
 "The government calls for fifteen thousand men to enlist in air service for one or three years time. This is bound to receive a quick response, as here is an opportunity for men to oe immediately assigned to duty in the service and of the number who enlist those who pass certain examinations will be given flying and balloon pilot ing instruction. This liberal offer is equivalent to a one or three years college course in areonautics, and one may become expert in all branches of aviation, and if qualified a non-com- missioned or even commissioned of f1cer. In addition to regular pay, clothing, quarters and rations, extra pay begins with instructions to ope- rate the aircraft. As the number of men wanted is limited to fifteen thou sand for the entire country, quick ap- plication to the nearest recruiting of ficer will be necessary before the privilege is withdrawn
 Everybody directly and indirectly interested in aviation should attend the Atlantic City convention and ex- hibition In order to keep abreast with the times and become familiar with the development of aircraft for de- fense and commercial uses and Wit ness the demonstrations of the worlds greatest airplane aviators, who will fly, and balloon pilots sail to the Atlantic air port from all over the country"

 Dentists warn us against the bad effects of acid mouth, pointing out that the acid eats through the enamel of the teeth, causing them to decay. You can easily imagine then the amount of damage excess acid will cause to the delicate organization of the stomach!
 Thousands of people are using EATONIC and the results obtained are so remarkable as to be almost unbe- lievable. Yet their letters of grati- tude, many of which are received daily, prove absolutely that EATONIC does all and even more than we claim. The medical profession, too, recOg- niZes the great value of this wonder full remedy. A learned Michigan doc tor wrote recently: "I have had such wonderful success with EATONIC that 1 want every one to know how quick ly it will neutralize the acidity of the stomach (acid-stomach) and the stom- ach will soon be sweet and normal again, and the sick man we'll and happy once more."
 So be sure to get a big box of EATONIC from your druggist today. If it fails in any way to give you the kind of satisfaction you want, take 1t back-he will refund your money. He doesn't want one penny of your money unless EATONIC helps yOu

big meeting is one OF hopefulness that
distinct progress will be made.
The Russian problem is giving more
concern than Germany. Reading the
American newspapers which have
reached here one gets the impression
that some American observers believe
the peace conference has been deviat-
ing from the main business of punish
ing Germany.
The fact is, little is said on that
question because of general agree
ment that the enemy must pay in
every way. And such measures as
Lloyd Georges proposal to feed Rus
sian bolsheviks or argument as to
lifting the blocade partially to enable
foodstuffs to enter Germany is due to
no spirit of 'eniency whatsoever, but
practical aspects.
The statesmen are less concerned in
sentimentality either for Russia or Ger
many than they are about bringing
like it or not they are coming around
to the opinion they must deal with
some established spokesman sooner or
later from Russia and Germany. and
that it would be better for them to as
sist in bringing about conditions to en-
able those countries to create govern
mentS strong enough to undertake Sc
we're international obligations soon to be
imposed by the peace conference.
No one need worry that any American,
British. French. Italian or Japanese rep
resentative will suddenly develop an
affection for Germany. but there are
many different opinions as to how to ac-
tually prevent anarchy and spread of
bolshevism. Since Germany has no voice
