A dieted stomach gets the blues and grumbles. Give it a good eat, then take Pape'H Diapep sin to start the digestive juices work ing. There will be no dyspepsia or belching of gas or eructations of undi gected food; 110 feeling like a lump of lead in the stomach or heartburn, sick headache and dizziness, and your food will not ferment and poison your breath with nauseous odors Pape's Diapepsin costs only 50 cents for a large case at any drug store here, and will relieve the most obstin ate case of Indigestion and Upset Stomach in five minutes. There is nothing else better to take gas from stomach and cleanse the stomach and intestines, and besides, one triangule will digest and prepare for assimilation into the blood all your food the same as a sound healthy, stomach would do it. When Diapepsin works, your stom ach rests—gets itself in order, cleans up—and then you feel like eating when you come to the table, and what you eat will do you good. Absolute relief from all Stomach Misery is waiting for you as soon as you decide to begin taking Diapepsin. Tell your druggist that you want Pape's Diapepsin, because you want to be thoroughly cured of indigestion. County Commissioners Meeting.

Why is it there is so much discrimination displayed in the drawing of jurors for criminal court? Look over your jury lists for years gone by and you will observe that there is a very small per eentage of business men on the lists. It is no trouble at all to find men well quali fied for jurors that have lived in Cam eron county for years and have never' been drawn as jurors. What is the reason? While others are drawn year after year, it looks as though there are men to be drawn that will be led by others. If this is the case it is a poor chance for justice. A juror should stand on hie judgment, not the opinion of others, or ied by some smooth tongued juror. Again, goto the train when court is c tiled and watch the majority of the jurors rush for a bar room the first thing Mingle and talk with them, you will see how many you find without the small of liquor. Can a juror that has been filled with booze give you or me a good clean verdict. No, a thousand times no. Some of your jurors at the last court answered to their uames when called, and had they been called to sit in the box at that time some one would have had to help them to a seat. Now can this state of affairs be remedied? Give the tax collector in each election district, or the assessors of each district, power to certify to the Jury Commissioners competeut citizens who have lived iu Cameron county, or any other county of the state. Then, and only then will we have fair, honor able and competent men to serve as jurors. CITIZEN. Driftwood, Pa., Jan. 9th, 1909. Stomach Trouble Cured.

I lost a great deal of sleep, which together with constant worry left me in such a nervous state that finally, after having two collapses of nervous prostration, I was obliged to give up traveling al together. I doctored continually but with no relief. Dr. Miles' Nervine came to my rescue —I cannot describe the suffering which this Nervine saved me. Whenever I am particularly nervous a few doses relieve me." A. G. C. LIP,BY, Wells, Me. There are many nervous wrecks. There is nervous pros tration of the stomach, of the bowels, and other organs. The brain, the kidneys, the liver, the nerve centers are all exhausted. There is but one thing to do— build up the nervous system by the use of Dr. Miles' Restora tive Nervine. Its strength ening influence upon the nerv ous system restores normal action to the organs, and when they all work in harmony, health is assured. Get a bottle from your druggist. Take it all ac cording to directions, and if it does not benefit he will return your money.
