The position of Republican L. S.
Senatorial nominee, o. E. Weller,
on the Prohibition question is an
insult to every temperance voter of
his party.
Mr.. Weller belongs to the whiskey
crowd, and is doing everything in
his power to undermine the present
Prohibition law. If elected to the
Senate he will vote for the legalized
sale of beer and wine, which means
that he favors the letting down of
the bars that will permit the sale
OF other and stronger intoxicants.
Mr.. Weller is circulating "wet"
pa m p h e t S among dependable
friends, with instructions to place
them with "wet Democrats, where
they will do the most good and the
least harm" They are to be kept
away from dry Republicans, who
receive other literature from his
headquarters, in which the Prohi-
bition question is not mentioned.
Mr.. Weller hopes by these
methods to be elected from tenn
perance district, in order that he
may do the bidding of the distillers
and brewers.
Is this the sort of man you want
to represent you in the United
States Senate? You have chance
to show this wet candidate what
you think of his stand when you
mark your ballot on Tuesday.

John POmeroy, Noted New
Zealand Scientist, Says Amer
lean People Treat Their
StOmachs With Too Little
Respect.

Forty per cent of the people of
the South are half-sick and fully
ninety per cent of these can attribute
their sufferings to stomach troubles.
Such are the main points in POM
eroy's new theory which has stirred
Little Rock, Atlanta, Memphis and
other Southern cities where he has
visited during the past few weeks.
."This is due to modern conditions"
he explained in Memphis, recently.
"These people," he went on, shave
rundown, overworked digestive or
gans, owing to too little exercise in
the fresh air and too much hastily
eaten food. It isn't kidney trouble,
or nervousness, or liver complaint,
or dozens of other diseases invented
by their imaginations.
Zone man called on me last week
and started our conversation by say
ing: My stomach is on the bum.'
could think Of more elegant way
to describe the condition of modern
Americans, but none more accurate
or expressive. These half-sick peo-
pie today have digestive organs that
are tOn the bum.'

FORTY PERCENT Of THE
PEOPLE Of THE SOUTH
HALF SICK, He STATES

Sometimes when see on the
street tired looking man or woman
with dull eyes and sallow complexion
l feel like saying: Say, / know
what's the matter with you. l can
help you if you will do as 1 tell you.'
"A sound digestive apparatus that
is doing its full duty in getting
every particle of vitality out of the
food is what makes good health. Only
keep the stomach in condition and
there is likely to be but little sick
ness.
at is the American tendency to
treat the stomach with too little re-
spect. Mos people stuff themselves
with too much food, and then when
the digestive organs get out of order
are half-sick all the time, and don't
know what is the matter with them.
My medicine, Puratone, restores mis-
used or out Of whack' stomachs to
normal condition and destroys chronic
constipation. Thousands of people
say that this is the reason for my
big success and explains why l am
now attracting such an unusul a
