Bad Stomach Cause
Of Bad Skin

You can't expect to have a good
clear fresh-looking complexion if your
stomach is weak and disordered.
Undigested food sends poisons
through your whole body, pimples
appear in your face, skin grows sallow
and muddy and loses its color. Your
tongue becomes coated, breath most
unpleasant. But these troubles will
end quickly and skin clear up if you
will start today taking that simple
herbal compound known to druggists
as Tanlac.
Tanlac contains nothing but herbs,
barks and roots which have a cleans
ing, healing effect on a poor upset
stomach. Just tablespoonful before
each meal stimulates the digestion
naturally so that you can eat what
you want without fear of distress.
And when your stomach is in good
shape again see how much keener
your appetite is-watch how quickly
skin begins to grow free of dishguring
eruptions. The cost of Tanlac is less
than &c dose. Get bottle from your
druggist today. Money back if it
doesn't help you.

Intensive Training
Campaign Tuesday
German Heavyweight Expects
to Weigh About 100 for
StribIing Battle

Suconneaut Lake Park, Pa, June
22.-P-Tuesday opens the major
drive of Max Something's training.
For the next six days, excluding
Thursday, the worlds heavyweight
champion will maui his sparring part
ners in the finishing touches for his
championship battle with Young
Stribling in Cleveland July 3.
The final week of training, reveal
ed Monday, provides for boxing Tues
day and Wednesday with a lay-off
Thursday. He will resume work Fri
day and continue to box every day
until Tuesday, when his weapons will
be hung up until he pulls on the
fighting gloves a week from Friday
night.
If Schmeling is carrying around any
worries he is not revealing them. The
champion was all smiles after his
brisk workout Sunday. Perhaps it
was because his sparring partners
gave him an excellent workout, or
perhaps it was because there were
exactly 3.10O paid admissions at 81
a head to watch him.
Sundays crowd was the largest of
the training grind.
TO prevent Schmeling from being
accustomed to the same sparring tai
ent. Manager Joe Jacobs has import
ed Matte Brown, a San Francisco
heavyweight, to join the present staff.
Schmeling is going into his final
drive weighing 100 pounds, when he
weighs in he may be a pound or two
lighter, however.
The black-haired German rested
Monday, playing golf and loafing
around his cottage in this quiet re-
treat.

CLOUDBURST CAUSES
DAMAGE AT

Dickinson, N. D.. June 22.-R)-
Considerable damage was caused by
a cloudburst which brought down
1853 inches of rain In q few minutes
at 4:30 O. m. Sunday.
While of great benefit to crops, the
sudden deluge caused a miniature
flood in the city. Drain pipes were
unable to run off the water, causing
it to rise above the streets and break
windows as it poured into Easements
in the downtown district.
Seventy five per cent OF the stock
at the Bismarck Grocery, q wholesale
house here. was said by company Of
ficials to have been damaged when
the water broke through the base
ment windows and flooded the cellar
with eight inches of water. Pumps
today worked to reduce the water
level.
Surging through the streets, the
water also poured into the basement
Of the j.. c. Penney company store,
but the presence of employees in the
building prevented any severe damage
to the stock. The water was kept to
one corner of the basement. At the
Dickinson Press. drain pipes on the
roof became c~ongested causing the
water to run through a trap door and
down two stories of steps to lie ankle
deep Oh the basement floor. causing
damage estimated at $500 to stock.
Sunday evening .24-inch rain fell
to bring the total precipitation for the
| day to 1872 inches. Overcast skies to-
day gave promise Of more rain.
