There we're sharp pains in my back

TIRED STOMACHS
COME TO LIFE
And Digest Heavy Meals
Just Like a Boy

Diapepsin is probably the most
powerful aid there is when the stom-
ach seems worn out. 1t enables you
to get away with foods that so often
cause the utmost misery. Pie.
cheese, cream, sausage, seasoned
stews and foods that brighten a
dyspeptic even to think of, are as
modified milk to a cooling infant
when followed by Diapepsin.
A host of people are denying them
selves half the pleasure of life hunt
ing for patent, prepared foods that
don't meet their needs. For after
all it is the state of the stomach
secretions that counts. Diapepsin
adds to the secretions and actually
works on the starches, meats, eggs,
cream, etc, and that is what tired,
feeble stomach needs.
Get 60 cent package of Pape's
Diapepsin at any drug store.-Ad-

FLUSH THE KIDNEYS
BEFORE BREAKFAST
Drink Lots Of Water, Also
Take a Little Salts if
Back Hurts

No man or woman can make q
mistake by flushing the kidneys oc-
casionally, says a well-known au-
thority. Eating too much rich food
creates acids, which excite the kid
neys. They become overworked from
the strain, get sluggish and fail to
filter the waste and poisons from
the blood. Then we get sick. Rheu-
matisfa, headaches, liver trouble,
nervousness. d.zz. ness, slecplessness
and urinary disorders often come
from sluggish kidneys.
The moment you feel dull ache
in the kidneys, or your back hurts,
begin drinking a quart of water
each day, also get about four ounces
of Jad Sllts from any pharmacy:
take a tablespoonful in a, glass of
water before breakfast, and in few
days your kidneys may act fine.
This famous salts is made from
the acid OF grapes and lemon juice,
combined with llthia. and has been
used for years to flush and stimulate
the Kidneys; also to help neutralize
the acids in the system, SO they no
longer cause irritation, thus often
relieving bladder weakness. ,ios
Jad Salts is inexpensive: makes a
delightful esfervesccnt lthia-water
drink which everyone should take
now and then to help keep the kid
neys c'ean and active and, the blood
pure, thereby oftsn avoiding serious
kidney complications. - Advertise

PACT OF DEATH
FATAL TO THREE
Chicago Man. Wife and Her
Son Are Victims.

BIZ United Press
CHICAGO, March 21.-A fantastic
plot of double suicide and murder
today was blamed for the deaths of
Mr.. and Mrs. Arthur McEwen and
Robert Mackenzie, Ii, hrs. Nc
Ewen's son. The boy was found
murdered, deep in a woods north Of
the city. His body had been burned.
Mr.. and Mrs. McEwen were found
dead in their neat apartment on the
west side of the city Sunday-borh
victims Of cyanide of potassium
poisoning. Doctors say there is no
question but that the couple had
made a suicide pact.
There was no hint of motive be-
hind the strange case. McEwen and
his wife had been married but few
months and apparently were quite
happy. On their honeymoon they
had visited Canada, where McEwen
once served in the Royal Northwest
Mounted Police service. Since re-
turning to Chicago he had worked
as salesman and the family life
Of the three had been ideal, neigh
bors say.
The boys body, burned almost b..
yond recognition, was found Satur-
day and for more than twenty-four
hours was unidentified.
Sunday neighbors forced their way
into the McEwcn apartment. The
bodies of the couple-both meticu-
lousy dressed--were found on beds.
Apparently every preparation was
made to prevent any disarrangement
of the house and even the folds of
the wornan's dress were laid about
her body neatly.
A note was found, written by Nc
Even, in which he said the boy.
''had been sent away because he
took $40 from his mother" 1t fur
Their added that Mrs, McEwen had
Threatened to kill the boy and her
self. Also there was request that
if anything happened. the bodies of
the three should be cremated.

CUT OPERATING EXPENSE
Pennsylvania r. r. Reports EconO-
mics in Locomotive Maintenance.

Economies effected in the E.
Washington shops of the Pennsyl-
vania Railroad here had a part in
the reduction of the company's
operating ratio for 1926 to 77.5 per
cent, the lowest in many years.
Seven hundred men are employed
in the Indianapolis shops, which care
for the 1877 locomotives on the In
dianapolis division. Reduced costs
in locomotive operation were re-
sponsible to no small degree for the
low operating ratio, officials declare.
William c. Downing, general agent
here, announced that for each hun
dred miles run by Pennsy locomo-
tives in 1926, the total cost for re-
pairs, depreciation, fuel, lubricants
and engine house expenses was
1857, as compared with $40.21 in
the previous year, a reduction of
$4.54, or over IL per cent. Ninety
five per cent of the locomotives of
the system were reported in good or
der at the close of the year.

A few drops of "Outgro" in the

underneath the toe nail, that it can
not penetrate the flesh, and the nail
turns naturally outward almost over
