NO STOMACH PAIN,
GAS. INDIGESTION
IN PIVE MINUTES
"Pape's Diapspsin" Is
the Only Real Stom
achßegulator Known
"Really does" put bad stomachs in
order—"really does" overcome indiges
tion, dyspepsia, gas, heartburn and
sourness in five minutes —that —just
that>—makes I'ape's Diapepsin the
largest selling stomach regulator in the
world. If what you eat ferments into
stubborn lumps, you belch gas and
eructate sour, undigested food aud
acid: head is dizzy and aches; breath
foul; tongue coated; y#ur iusides tilled
with bile aud indigestible waste, re
member the moment "Pape's Diapep
sin" comes in contact with the stomach
all such distress vanishes. It's truly
astonishing—almost marvelous, and the
,ioy is its harmlessness.
A large fifty-cent case of Pape's t'ia
pepsin will give you a hundred dollars'
worth of satisfaction or your druggist
hands you vour money back.
It's worth its weight In gold to men
and women who ean't get their stom
achs regulated. It belongs iu your
home- —should always be kept handy iu
case of a sick, sour, upset stomach dur
ing the day or at night. It's the

DR. SCHAEFFER PLEADS
i FDD THE RURAL SCHOOLS
More Mobey for Building Mid Teach
ers Is Urgently Requested by the
State Superintendent of Public In
struction
The annual report of Or. X. C.
Sehaeffer, Superintendent of Public In
struction, says that the most important
t problem before the next Legislature
j will be betterment of the educational
| facilities in the rural districts. He
I declared that they needed more money
j for buildings and teaclners and the pu•
! pils better facilities for reaching
schools. Dr. Sehaeffer snid there had
[been a notable advancement in inter
j est in industrial and vocational edu 'a
jtion. many of the cities having in
stituted extensive courses.
The Superintendent 'voiced objection
to numerous holidays and to the bring
] ing to the schools of many problems
which he considers as not within the
i duty of the educator to undertake. Dr.
jSehaeffer said tliat there should be an
| improvement in the teaching of Kng
j l ish. He «avs history, insofar as it pve
j paros youth for citizenship, is declare I
to be very valuable.
According to the report Dr. Sehaeffer
believes the operation of the act of the
last legislature, requiring the reading
of the Bible in all the public schools,
has not been accompanied by any of
the difficulties that were freely dis
cussed while the bill was being fought
over in tiic Senate and House. Dr.
Sehaeffer says:
"While the bill requiring the daily
reading of the Bible in the public
schools was pending, it was predicted
jin other States that if the proposed
| legislation were ever enacted into law,
i there would be scenes of riot and blood
shed in Pennsylvania. Nothing of the
j kind had come to pass. The campaign
which the school department inaujju
rated for carrying this law into effect
has been remarkably siJceessful. After
J the law interpreted and explained,
I there was little objection to its en
! forccment. The teachers, although dif
fering in religious creeds an.l customs,
I proved themselves to. be law abiding
| citizens. Fortunately, the spirit of re
j ligious tolerance, with which William
i Penn started the government of hit
J province, still abides in the hearts of
I our citizens.
'•The law in regar.l to vaccination is
! not satisfactory," says Superintendent
Sehaeffer. "During tlie last year some
| school houses were emptv because an
, attempt was made to enforce the law
{excluding unvaccinated children front
| school. The courts have held that when
I a child is excluded from school on the
1 ground that it has not been success
j fully vaccinated, the compulsory at
| tendance law cannot be enforced. An
! empty st'hool house is a needless ex
! pense, because it moans that tiie un
j vaccinated are neither getting in educa
tion nor receiving immunity from a
loathsome disease.''
The report makes no recoinmenda- 1
i tion as to how the law should be 1
i changed.
U. OF P. SCHOOL TO START
Students May Form Class Organization
to Get Taste of Univer
sity Life
With the preliminary work of regis
tration aud the opening exercises over,
the regular session of the University
of Pennsylvania extension school opens
this evening. Classes will start at 7.43'
p. m. and the first hour will continue
until 8.45 p. m. when there will be an
intermission of fifteen minutes, the
work terminating at 10 o'clock. There
will be alternation betweeu lecture
hours and quiz hours throughout the
term. The first week will consist of
lectures entirely.
The Harrisburg extension school is,
now the largest of the four "up-state",
evening schools of the university, pub
lic spirited citizens of Harrisburg as
well as members of the university fac
ulty have worked hard to establish j
the institution so firmlv in this city.
The classes will be held on the
fourth floor of the Technical High
school building in the lar *e study I
room, ideal for the purposes of the 1
school as it is large, well ventilated
and suitably equipped with desks.
Professor Budd, of the Wharton f
school faeultv, has made the suggestion j
to several of the students that as soon j
fis possible after the opening of the
school, the men get together and form
a class organization. In the Philadel
phia evening school the men have
their own organization as well as their
own football, baseball and debating
teams. Banquets, smokers and other en-j
tertainments are given continually \
through the winter. In this wav the
men partake of so ial life and recre
ation. while getting their business edu
cation.
Classes in this city will coiitiuue
without interruption with the excep
tion of Thanksgiving night until De
cember 17, when there will be a
week's vacation for Christmas.

After wearing my glasses my eyes
felt #trained and overworked. By
chance I met a man whose eyes had
bothered him the r«me way. He gave
me the following prescription, which
he said had cured him and since had i
enabled him to discard his glasses.

ptomaine poisomm;

Ptomaine poison causes a serious dis
turbanee of the digestive organs due t >
the products of germ life, Generally
speaking ptomaines are the result of
deconi|iositiun of food stuffs. This i<
caused by bacteria. In the process of
their growth a pnison is produced which
effects a violent disturbance if intro
duce I into the digestive system.
Sausage, decomposed lish, che s\
ice cream, milk, canned meats an I
vegetables are the food stuffs mo°t
commonly responsible for ptomaine po
soiling. Cooking will not always destroy
the ptomaines in food stuffs." It k ; l s
the bacteria but the poisonous sub
stances will remain.
I nfortunately our sen«e of in
the majority of instances does not warn
us of the presence ol' these poisons.
I his is often due to the common p'rac
tice of over seasoning 'our fooil stuffs
and the excessive use of condiments.
Also it is the practice of manv canners
to add preservatives which makes it
possible for them to use decomposed
meats or vegetables. If foods for can
ning are properly inspected before their
preparation and the decayed port on
eliminated, they ran lie made to keep
without the addition of injurious pre
servatives.
Ptomaine poisoning as a rule de
velops a few hours after eating an 1
progresses rapidly.
In the treatment of ptomaine poi
soning the first essential is to wash
out the stomach ami empty the in
testinal canal of as much of the decent
posed food as possible. These tiling
may be done while awaiting the arrival
of the physician.
Limit of Courtesy
Japan's new prime minister, Count
Okunia, has a wooden leg. It replaces
a limb which was blown off b\ the
bomb of a political assassin. In con
nection with that outrage a story is
told which, goes far to support the
claim that is made for Okunia that he
is the best mannered man in Japan.
After the explosion, which had killuil
his servants and horses, besides shat
tering his leg. he was lying in his
office in an agony of pain, vet lie w:is
able to say smilingly to i: foreign
Statesman who was taking leave of
him, " Excuse me, sir, for my impolite
ness in not seeing you to the door,"-
