THE HORRORS OF
INDIGESTION
Relieved By "Fruit.a-tiveS"
The Famous Fruit Medicine

Indigestion, Weak Digestion or
partial digestion of food, is one OF
the most serious of present-d day
complaints.
Those who suffer with Indigestion,
almost invariably are troubled with
rheumatism, Slecplessncss and ex-
cessive Nervousness.
"Fruit-a-tives" will always relieve
Indigestion because these tablets
strengthen the stomach muscles,
increase the flow of digestive Juices
and correct Constipation, which
?"ually accompanies Indigestion.

BONDS GAIN FREELY
During PAST WEEK
Achieve More Than Any Per-
iod Of Year; Foreign Is
sues Are Neglected.

NEW YORK. Aug. 1s.-Bonds
have been more than ordinarily
strong during the week just ended,
and more substantial gains over
the whole list have. in fact. been
achieved during the week than
during any other week of the sum-
mer. Not so much attention has
been given to the foreign issues. it
Is true, but that is due to special
causes as reflected in the drop of
the German mark to its record low
and can not be interpreted as
throwing any light upon the gen.
eral position of the bond market
generally. Even the Libertys. to-
ward the weeks close pointed up
ward. and that too is a good sign.
Traders in Wall Street have for
some time expected higher bond
prices before fall, since there is
still a consensus of opinion that
money rates are likely to continue
easier for a time. and this week
brought what many have thought
was due. Smart gains came both
to the better grade and speculative
issues. and many new highs for
the year were established.

demand and check the rise.
