GAS so BAD
CROW DIS HEART

"My bowels were 80 sluggish and my
stomach SO bad was just miserable. Some
times gas bloated me until It seemed to
relief. The first dose worked like magic.
Adlerika removed the gas and waste matter
and my stomach felt SO good."-Mrs.. s. A.
McAmis. If gas in your stomach and bowels
from constipation bloats you up until you
gasp for breath, take q tablespoonful Of
Adlerika and notice how the stomach GAS
IL relieved almost at once. Adlerika often
moves the bowels in less than two hours.
Adlerika Is BOTH carmnntive and cathartic,
containing five carminntives to warm and
soothe the stomach and expel GAS, and three
cathartics to clear the bowels and relieve
intestinal nerve pressure.

where he could phone Stanley of

There was still more than an hour

Kay was hurled down the COM
panionway and into the cabin below.

conversation about D-hour Kay

in stony surprise.

The stocky colonel, obviously one

"Fools!" he shouted. "Why do
you stand here? Go back on deck!
There may be others aboard"
Only One Hope.
The men turned and vanished.
"Who are you?" the colonel de-
manded of Kay, his harsh face set,
deadly. when did you board this
barge?"
Kay's brown eyes flickered swiftly
about the improvised cabin. She
saw the short-wave radio set and
the map. On a table lay two heavy
pistols. Kay knew she dared not
let the system men know that she
and big Vince had followed Phillip
Stover onto the barge. Her only
hope was to stall for time.
For we'll over half an. hour the
colonel and captain -rasped at her
with a torrent of questions. Kay's
defense was dogged, tight-lipped
silence. If she spoke she knew that,
under their merciless hammering
she might slip. And a slip would
be fatal.
Finally, the colonels eyes mar
rowed and he spoke sharply to the
captain in foreign tongue, ges-
turing toward a small door at the
rear of the cabin. Kay concluded it
led to the afterhatch, in which she
had heard the captain order Phillip
Stover to be imprisoned.
The captain replied gutturally to
the colonel, picked up one Of the
pistols on the table. He turned,
drew the bolt on the small door,
opened it.
Enter" he said. His face was
angular, pale, cold.

Kay sank down on a crossbeam.
Her excitement and terrific tension
since boarding the barge left her
feeling numb, unreal. The one COM

had escaped undetected and that
probably even then was pouring his
story into the ear of Special Agent
Stanley.
