STOMACH DISTRESS.
And All Missry From Indigestion Van

Every family here ought to
keep some.Diapepsin in the house,
as any one of you may have an at
tack of Indigestion or 'Stomach
trouble at any time, day or night.
This harmless preparation will
digest anything you eat and over
come a sour stomach live min
utes afterwards.
If your meals don't tempt you,
or what little you do eat seems to
fill you, or lays like a lump of
lead in your stomach, or if you
have heartburn, that is a sign of
Indigestion.
Ask your Pharma3ist for a 50
cent case of Pape's Diapepsin and
take one triangule after supper
tonight. There will be no sour
risings, no belching of undigest
ed food mixed with acid, no
stomach gas or heartburn, full
ness or heavy feeling in the
stomach. Nausea, Debilitating
Headaches, Dizziness or intesti
nal griping. This will all go, and,
besides, there will je no sour
food left over in the stomach to
poison your breath with nause
ous odors. .
Pape's Diapepsin la a certain
cure for all stomach misery, bo
causeitwill take hold of your
food and digest it just the same
as if your stomach wasn't there.
Actual, prompt relief for all
your stomach misery is at your
Pharmacist, waiting for you.
These large 50-cent cases con
lain more than sufficient to cure
a ca a 3 of Dyspepsia or Indigos-!

MIDWINTER
Clearance Sale
T
John S. Wilson's Store,
Three Springs.
While there Is practically three months of winter weather '
to be expected yet, the wide-awake merchant begins early to clear
his stock to make room for Spring purchases.
The old way of merchandising was to carry over from one
season to another all unsold goods, and never parting with an ar
ticle unless the full retail prices was received. That day ts gone
by. Goods bought for the winter trade must go In the winter, and
it Is much better In the end that tho Hock should be closed out at
profit or no profit, than to be at the trouble of storing It away
and beginning next winter's business with old out-of-date stuff.
During the Month of February
we shall sell at way-down prices,
Men's, Women's and
Children's Clothing
Blankets, Arctics, Rubbers, Carpets, and
with these goods will go at Special Prices.
Dry Goods, Groceries, Hardware and
Housefurnishing Goods.
We want it distinctly understood that when it
comes to quality of goods we will not be under
sold by anybody.

The effect of the poor vield of

tion is being felt in a general
shortage and consequent high
price of that commodity. The
prevailing price is $1 a bushel.
Many of the farmers not only
have no potatoes to sell, but are
themselves compelled to buy po
tatoes for seed and for use in tha
family, which is a condition with
