People sometimes get the notion
that the stomach has given out and
their race Is run. And yet II Is often
astonishing the relief that comes in
such cases from taking Stuart's Dys-
pepsia Tablets after eating. This re-
lief is so pronounced that such symp-
toms of dyspepsia, as the melancholy
loss of appetite and broody fear TO eat
are quickly dispelled. Sometimes an
excess OF certain kinds Of food may
lodge in an acid stomach TO cause gas,
heartburn, water-brash, sense OF
fulness after eating and "A heavy,
drowsy feeling after meals. This is
dyspepsia and the stomach needs the

The young man had a decoration on his face. You could hardly call it a beauty spot. for it was a discoloration of the region surrounding his right eye. He tried to look as if he had gotten through attempting some daring feat in sport or war. but neither in war nor sport does one. as a rule, get a black eye. so when he met his chum the lat ter wanted to ixaow all about 1t.

It is not true that farming as a whole has deteriorated in the United States or that soils have been impov- crashed. that acre yields have dropped or that the increase in population has outdistanced the production of food. For the last 40 years, the increase in yield per acre are as follows: Potatoes, s3; wheat. 22; oats, 24; hay, 20; corn, 10; cotton, 3ts; or for all crops, 16 per cent. Some explanation for these in creased figures is to be found in bet ter agricultural methods; rotation of crops, disease control measures. em ployment of power machinery and more intelligent use of fertilizers.

LAPS SELL CHlNA's PRODUCTS
 Our failure to keep in touch with the Chinese has resulted in several ex- traordinary developments in our i'm port trade and some fin our export trade that have operated greatly to our disadvantage.
 We have permitted the Japanese trader to creep fin between the Chinese producer and tho American consumer. The bean oil known as "soya." IS als most entirely con sumed in the United states. It is bought by American con- sumers almost entirely from Japanese dealers. but the oil is not produced in Japan. It is a Chinese product and Inc name Soya is not the Chinese name but a Iapansc name imposed on the trade by Japanese middlemen. An American who bought large quantities of this, oil from Japan did not know that he was paying the Japanese dealer about three times as much as he could have bought the oil for from the Chinese producer direct.
 Much of the silk sold here as Japa- rcso is produced fin China. bought by the Japanese from the Chinese pro- ducers, taken to Japan, rewound. the price doubled and then sold to Amer ican weavers for twice the price paid to Chinese producers.
 Americans desiring 10 sell soap and other American products in China have been induced to accept Japanese firms in China as distributors. only tc find that the Japanese had represent d their American goods to be of Jap anese origin. and since the Chinese have put their byocott on Japanese products into effect American soaps and goods that were distributed through Japanese agents have los kmlm .s1mm E.m I.I Chinese commerce.

 NEW YORK-Now that the season of bargains in. furs has duly arrived. some suggestions as to what to buy may be appreciated, especially looking ahead to another winter.
 First, the furs that are most piiable are to be preferred. This applies espe- cially to coats since some of them have stiff interlinings which make them cumbersome and ungracefui. It is difficult to advise between coats and wraps because they serve quite different purposes. the latter be- ing altogether formal. Illustrated Is a beautiful moIeskin that is one of the most successful compromises between wrap and coat It is in three sec- tions, each gathered a bit to a founda- ton with a great, very graceful collar and large sleeves that end in a wide band effect.
 Hudson seal promises to be as good as ever another year. Among small furs, the wrap-around collars and the cape collars that can be turned into revers are a safe choice.
