digestion pains after every meal.
Nothing seemed to help me. I
tried everything I could hear of but
my indigestion hung on four years.
Then a friend got me to take some
Pape's Diapepsin. l had almost i'm
mediate relief with the first two
tablets. Now that l have been taking
them for some time, l find l can eat
meats or most anything and have no
trouble. I want to tell others about
Diapepsin because it sure helped me-"
Thousands like Mr.. Barnes are
finding quick, certain relief for indi-
gestion or so-called ''acid-dyspepsia''
by using Pape's Diapepsin. You
chew a tasty tablet and that feeling
of weight and discomfort after eating
just disappears. So do the other
symptoms, such as nausea, headache.
gas, belching, nervousness, etc.
Pape's Diapepsin contains no
narcotics; can be taken often as
needed without harm. All druggists
sell it. Or if you prefer to try it
before buying, just write "Pape's

Jack Guzik, second In command of
the gang chose, like Ralph Capone,
to fight the government charges. His
sentence was five years, the largest
ever passed in an income tax case.
Big Boy Was Target
But while these caSes were being
worked up. the big boy" himself was
the principal target OF the govern

under Investigation for two and a
half years. And 1t was In his case
that the government agents found
their hardest work.
"Scarface AL" was more wary than
any of the others. He dealt almost
entirely in currency. He kept no
records, no bank account, executed
no notes, held no stock openly, had
no real estate in his own name. Dis
covery of his many aliases was an
extremely difficult task in itself.

lease the suspects and suggested the
manager 60 there to recover his
goods.
The wyoming sheriff told Mr..
Armstrong the suspects admitted
they were with Ryland before his dis
appearance.
Ryland, Mr.. Armstrong disclosed,
had not reported to his company for
two weeks prior to his disappearance,
He said he learned from a hotel pro-
prietor in North Dakota that Ryland
was intoxicated the day he disap-
peared.
1T is my belief" MI. Armstrong
said, that Ryland was hi-jacked OF

lands disappearance is cleared up,

The board. however. agreed to hear

which made him a principal in said
crime was done by him without
intent and knowledge and that the
crime for which he was convicted
would be committed"
The Potter case aroused wide
spread interest when he was charged
with killing Oliver Webb in Bismarck
where the two men resided as they
were preparing for a hunting trip.
A jury In Durleigh county district
court disagreed and the case was
then taken on a change of venue to
Mclean county where Potter was
convicted and sentenced to prison
July 20, 1929. Potter's plea was the
first to be made since he was SEN

Concerning the wisdom of initial
