Lady's Stomach Was ssA
Like A Gas Factory:
Meals Turned To Gas

One lady said recently that her
stomach used to be like a gas
factory!" That is, when she ate a
meal it seemed to turn right into
gas. She was always bloated, had
awful stomach gas pains, daily
headaches and constant irregular
bowel action. Now, however, this
lady says she is FREE Of STOM-
ACH GAS and she says the change
is due to taking INNER-AID. Her
meals agree with her. No gas or
bloat after eating. Headaches and
constipation are gone. "Oh! what
relief" states this lady. 'Why
don't other gas and constipation
sufferers get INNER-AID.
INNER-AID contains IL Great
Herbs; they cleanse bowels, clear
gas from stomach, act on sluggish
liver and kidneys. Miserable peo-
pie soon feel different all over. So
don't go on suffering! Get INNER
AID. Sold by all drug stores here
in Wilmington.

MILITARY Experts Explanation OF Cray
Hats May Mean More Ominous Times Ahead
BY RUTH MILLETT

A British military critic claims
that we will be able to tell from
women's styles whether 1.-The
future will bring another great
upheaval o. a return to peaceful
stability"
He points out that in TRANQUIL
periods women, who are extreme.
ly sensitive creatures, go for soft
fashions that accentuate their
normal outline.
But, says he, when women be.
gin to flatten their figures and
wear exaggerated hats, there is
trouble brewing.
That is a handy explanation Of
style trends for women to tuck
away in the back of their minds,
1t is a perfect answer to the
man who wise cracks about the
new fashions and claims that
women are nothing but a bunch
OF sheep who would wear any.
thing under the sun if they were
persuaded it was high style.
We aren't sheep, Mister. We're
just sensitive-sensitive to the
events our intuition tells us you
are cooking up. There's strife anc
unrest ahead. Okay, We reflect il
in the styles you call crazy.
II you want us to wear the kino
of clothes that make us look ex
tremely feminine and that really
become us, then build us peace,
full, happy world, where woman
isn't faced with the possibility o1
having to step into some mans
shoes.
And if you scoff at this explana
tion for our fashion trends, ther
we can say, well, I'm just tell
ing it to you for what it is worth,
It's not my idea. A man thought
it up-and military expert al
that.
And what's wrong with this
hat, anyhow This high crown
is the very latest thing, and be
sides everybody is wearing crazy
hats like this"

Just curious, as all women are, about

Perhaps ! can tell you" He
stood very close to her, at her Shout
der, and he spoke quietly. why not
ask me questions?"
II will and III start with this:
You and Perry Dawson are friends,
aren't you?"
Steve nodded. Hes a nice lad"
Are you his adviser?"
His answer was a look of politely
surprised inquiry, no more than a
slight lift of his eyebrows.
Daphne was irritated by this and
exclaimed, Don't be so cagey"
His mouth relaxed into another
smile until she declared, You know
Miss Buff Turner"
Steve said he did.
Have you tried to influence
Perry in connection with her."
Il hope So" he answered blandly,
but in matters having nothing to
do with Miss Turner. They are of
an entirely different nature"
What nature?"
"One which | shall not go into.
1t doesn't concern you"
They were both standing, facing
each other. Suddenly he looked
sharply at her. AT that | have
sometimes thought of talking to you
about it."
why haven't you"
Steve hesitated a moment, then
said, Because Twelve not known
how you would take it. You see, you
are sometimes one kind Of person
-. and then :"
Daphne knew very well what he
meant, and she asked in low voice,
rs that fair to me-"
"Fair?" he repeated, his eyes
searching her face; then in a fash
she was swept into his arms. Her
heart pounded; blood Numbered in
her ears, and inevitably she turned
her face back to him of her own
will and, closing her eyes, received
his kiss on her mouth.
alan! she thought wildly, as she
remembered that dream: the arms
fast about her, a new rhythm-a
wild, wonderous rhythm coursing
through her - then Daphne found
the face she had not been able to
see in her dream
1t was Steve's-the face chat was
so close to her own. The torrent of
emotion - her awakening to the
knowledge that this was the strong
est she had ever felt-swept over
her. Before that wave engulfed her,
the last small defenses went down
with a feeble protest.
