is Your
Stomach
a "Gasser"?

Excessive gas in stomach and bowels
doesn't necessarily mean that your food
is at fault or that you have chronic
dyspepsia. In most cases II, results from
gastric neurasthenia--a purely nervous
condition which disturbs the functional
activity Of the stomach. Taking medi-
cine to digest food artificially Is .
waste Of time. What you need is
remedy TO correct the nervous trouble
and prevent the formation Of abnormal
gas
Go to your druggist and ask for a
package Of Baalmannfs Gas Tablets,
which are prepared especially for this
aiIment. See how quickly they will re-
Iieve pent-up gas and all its distressing

hours there in absolute solitude
every day.
Additions to the gallery are
made from time to time through
Carols Rumanian connections
who have also been commissioned
to report the boys every bright
saying and his doingS In general.
Life at Carols estate is Sin1pli-
city itself. According to Werboff,
the prince reads a great deal. He
likes horseback riding and speed
ing over the country roads in one
of his several high-powered auto
mobiles.
Has Much Company
He receives much company,
mostly Ruma1ian officers. and he
always extends hospitality to one
or more house guests. The latter
now includes the father Of
Madame Lupescu, a retired nom
commissioned officer in the Ru-
manian army, and Werboff.
Whereas a few years ago the
prince would insist on dressing
for dinner, his guests are now at
liberty to appear for the even
ing meal in lounge suits, if they
wish to. Carol himself sets the
example by never donning dress
clothes or even a dinner jacket
any more. He has a well-Stocked
cellar, but he only drinks white
wine and that very sparingly, de-
clareS Werboff.
Contrasting with this simplicity
in manners and dress is the re.
splendent uniform in which the
prince posed for Werboff. Gov
cred with medals and decora-
tions, he wore the t1nic and In.
sigma Of q colonel in the Ru.
manian air force, and, for an.
other pose. those Of an admiral.
And the prince always uses the
royal first person plural I'VE" in
his conversation.

Prince Carol to Visit
His Royal Son

PARIS, Jan. % UN.S0 Prince
Carol, the exiled father of the boy
King Michael of Rumania, may
soon return to his native land
but only to see his regal son.
This was revealed to Inter.
national News Service today by
Michael, Wersoff, well-known Rus
sian portrait painter. who has
spent several months at Carols
country estate, Chateau du
Coesme, where the prince and
Nine. Marie Lupescu, his NOR.
ganic wife, have sat for him.
1t is an open secret here that
enissarieS Of the prince have long
been carrying on negotiations to
obtain permission for Carol to
visit his son on Rumaniall soil, the
only place where the meeting could
conceivably be arranged for a long
time to come, in view Of Michael's
kingShip and present minority.
Fond Of Michael
The success Of these negotia
tionS, resultingin the lifting of his
exile by the Rumanian govern
nent, is attributed by Werboff to
the human consideration that a
father should be allowed to see his
son, and vice versa, and also to
the growing conviction within
Rumania that Carol has no pollti-
cal ends in view.
Prince Carol is very fond of
Michael, says Werboff. His wor.
ship Of the young king has almost
reached the dimensions Of reli-
gionisnl, the painter declares. In
fact, one room of the chateau has
been set aside as a shrine to the
boy monarch.
The walls are covered entirely
with pictures Of the boy ruler at
all ages and in all attitudes from
the day he was born until now.
The prince allows no one to enter
this room, and he spends several
