EATONIC Users
DO This-Get the
Greatest Benefits

Chicago, IIl.-Thousands Of reports
from people all over the U. S. who
have tested eatOnic, show the greatest
benefits are obtained by using it for a
few weeks, taking one or two tablets
after each meal.
Eatonic users know that it stops
Belching, Bloating, Heartburn, and
Stomach Miseries quickly, but the
really lasting benefits are obtained by
using eatonic long enough to take the
harmful excess acids and gases entire
ly out Of the system. This requires a
little time, for eatonic takes up the
excess acidity and poisons and carries
them out Of the body and Of course,
when it is all removed, the sufferer gets
well feels fine-full Of life and pep.
If you have been taking an eatonlc
now and then, be sure and take it regu-
larly for q time and obtain all Of these
wonderful benefits. Please speak to
your druggist about this, so that he can
tell others that need this help. Adv,

CATS DISRUPTED THE zoo
Released to Clean Up Despised Rats,
They Terrorized Lions, Leopards
and Tigers Alike.

An army of cats, turned loose in the
ZOO at Highland park, Pittsburgh, Pa,
TO clean out the rats, has shown the
fallacy Of many tales of ferocity told
of wild denizens of the jungle.
Rats had become so numerous at the
big zoo that 1t was found necessary to
take some means of Kidding the build
Ing of the pests, and the head keeper
decided on cats--just the plain alley
breed. An advertisement brought
them in droves, and they were turned
loose in the cages, cellars, supply
rooms and lofts.
No sooner had the cages been invad-
ed than pandemonium broke loose.
Lions, tigers, panthers, pumas and
leopards failed to recognize a distant
relationship, and many of them went
clear frantic with fear. Other anil
mails including the elephants, were not
so timorous, but hippo and rhino were
only a few seconds in making up their
minds that discretion was the better
part of valor.

Before the Time of the Automobile.

What is probably the oldest produc-

McClintockville, near here, and is
owned by Joseph e. Robinson, this
city. The well was completed in 1861,
and had an initial production of IT'S
barrels a day. 1t is still producing at
the rate of one-quarter Of a barrel a
day, which at the present price of
Pennsylvania crude, S6.1O, makes II
still a paying proposition. The year
the well was drilled the average price
of oil was 30 cents a barrel.-Oil City
