Acid-Stomach Makes
Bad Blood, Headaches
and Nervousness

Many times you have seen an awfully bad,
oozy-looking face that makes you think -
cts blood poison" You are wrong. for about
nine times out Of ten it Is caused by an acid
stomach, which upsets the digestion. This
makes the blood impure and It shows up in the
face. with red nose and pimply. blotchy,
muddy, bad-looking complexion.
Remember, too, IL the digestion is faulty,
you cannot escape the penalty in the loss Of
mental and physical power. Then again if you
eat moro food than the body needs, it makes
gas by fermentation.
This fermentation creates toxic poisons
which, taken into the blood, irritate the nerves
and affect the entire nervous system. This is
the frequent cause of severe attacks of head
ache and other nervous disorders such as ex-
treme nervousness, irritability, insomnia,
mental depression, melancholia, dizziness and
vertigo.
Thousands, yes, millions Of men and women
suffer daily from these troubles and never
dream that Acid Stomach Is the cause of their
wretched health. But for that matter any
number Of people have endless trouble with
their teeth not knowing that condition called
acid-mouth = causing all the damage. If .

Wayne to Send Is Men
To State G. O. p. Convention

Beth the Republican and Democratic
state conventions will have q much
smaller number of delegates this year
than at the last conventions. The
reason for this is that the number Of
delegates is governed by the vote for
the Office of secretary of state, and
the vote at the election in 1918, on
account of war conditions and the alb
sence of young voters serving In the
army, was smaller than usual In both
parties.
