STOPS STOMACH MISERY AND INDIGESTION AT «Pape’s Diapepsin” makes sick, sour gassy Stomachs fcel fine, Po some foods vou cat hit back— tdste good, but work badly; ferment into stubborn lumps and cause a sick, sour, gassy stomach? Now, Mr. or Mrs. Dyspeptic, jot this down: Pape’s Diapepsin digests everything, leaving pothing to sour and npset you. There never was anything so safely quick, so certainly effective. Xo difference how padly your stomach 1s disordered you Wil get happy relief in five minntes, but what pleases you most is that strengthens and regulates your stom- ach so you can eat your favorite foods without feear. Most remedies give you relief some- times—they are slow, but not sure. “Pape’s Diapepsin’ is quick, positive and puts your stomach in a healthy cendition so the misery won't come pack. You feel different as soon as “Pape’s Diapepsin comes in contact with the stomach—distress just vanishes—your stomach gets sweet, no gases, no belch ing, no eructations of undigested food, your head clears and you feel fine, Go how, make the best investment you ever made, by getting a large fifty- cent case of Pape’s Diapepsin from any drug store. You realize in five minutes how needless it is to suffer from indigestion, dyspepsia or any stomach disorder. s it | then the supply will be disposed of long before the closing day. As usual, dancing will be ecnjoyed every evening after the regular enter- tainment and McKeon's orchestra will no doubt furnish the music. As booths are one of the things that go a long way toward making a fair, outsi of the entertainments, it is planned to have an unusually large number this year, and the committee expects to put some new articles on the vheels that have never beem put out this way before. The fair will -bo held February 9, 10, 12 and 13. Affirmative Wins Debatec.

The police of nearby citles have been asked to be on the lookout for the alleged slasher, who is known at the transfer station as D. Lucas. The man is in poor physical condition as a result of illness and it is expected that he will be captured. Jones is under the care of Dr. J. C. Tanner and while his wound is not of a very serious character it will lay him up for several days. Lucas has not been working for over a week, but has been allowed to remain in the car used as sleeping quarters by the truckers because of sickness. Yesterday Jones discovered that some dishes which had been missed fro.n the dining car had been secreted in the negro’s berth. When he attempted to take them Lucas protested and threatened to harm the waiter should he insist on their re- moval. Shortly after 7 o’clock in the even- ing Jones left the dining car, as is his custom, to dispose of some garbage. He was but a. short distance from the car when he was felled by a blow from behind, a razor wielded by his assailant cutting through his cap and inflicting a wound several inches long in his scalp as he dropped to the ground. His cries brought the cook to his ald and frightened away the negro, who disappeared in the dark- — ) day, employed dining car connected man, "COMING OUT? roaamania g ——1 IR + S Dandruff causes a feverish irrita- tion of the scalp, the hair comes out HA fast.

Mr. Thurston's funeral was held Sunday afternoon. The clergyman had been in poor health for a long time and his d.a‘h was not unexpected.
