ONE MILLION DOLLARS roil
A GOOD STOMACH.
Ills Offer Should Be a Warning- to
Every Man and Woman.
The newspapers and medical
journals recently have had much
to say relative to a famous mil-
lonaii e's offer of a million dollars
for a new stomach.
This great multi millionaire
was too busy to worry about the
con d i tion o f hi s s to m ach. Ho al-
owed his dyspepsia to run from
bad to worse until in the end it
became incurable.
His misfortune serves as a
warning to others.
Every one who suffers with
dysyepsia for a lew years will
give everything be owns for a new
stomach.
Dyspepsia is commonly caused
by an abnormal state ot the gas-
trie juices, or by lack of tone in
the walls of the stomach. The
esult is that the stomach loses
its power to digest food.
We are now able to supply cer
tain missing elements to help to
restore to the gastric juices their
digestive power, and to aid in
making the stomach strong and
well.
We know that Rexall Dyspep
sia Tablets are a most dependa
ble remedy for disordered stom
achs, indigestion, and dyspepsia.
We want you to try them and
jvill return your money if you are
not more than satisfied with the
result.
Three sizes, 25 cents, 50 cents,
and $1.00. Remember, you can
obtain Rexall Remedies in this
community only at our store

DECISION SHORTENS TERMS.
County and Doroiij;li Officials Affect
ed if Lower Court is Sus
tained. According to Georgo D. Thorn,
chief clerk of the State depart
ment at Harnsburg and an au
thority on election matters, If
the decision of Judge L. L. Davis
of Allegheny County, ia the case
of the so called McKeesport "rip
per" bill is sustained by the high
er courts, it will deprive hun
dreds of municipal and county
officers throughout the state of
extensions of terms the recent
Legislature endeavored to grant
them. He says:
"The decision of Judge Davis
is far-reaching and effects more
public officers than any decision
that has been made for many
years past. The decision wipes
off the statute books the so called
Alter act," which provided for
the extension of terms of officers
not provided for by the schedule
to the amendments adopted in
1909. This includes all Justices
of the Peace and Aldermen elect
ed in 1907, arid also borough and
township officers elected for three
years terms in 1909. All these
officers will serve only until the
end of the term for which they
were elected, which is the first
Monday in March or April or
May, 1912, as the case may bo.
"Under the Alter bill these of
ficers were continued in office un
til the first Monday in January,
1914.
"All county officers elected in
1909 are in the same position, and,
instead of serving four years,
will serve but three, and vacan
cies will occur at the end of the
three years for which they were
elected, which will be filled bv
appointment."

The iron bar used In making the

In diameter at the smallost part. Each
link Is about twenty-two and a quarter
Inches long, and weighs about 100
pounds.
When teBted for strength, the
