If digestion is w ? Don't i.. ,.,.??? When the stomach cannot digest all foods, some people cat only foods that.it can digest. That means partial starvation. The various parts of the body re quire different food elements. And ?when some arc omitted, some pans arc robbed of nourishment. Food will do more than medi cine ' when we arc dealing with I weakness. Those with weak digestions need it more than the strong. ~\ _ The right way is to cat what you need and want, then let Kodol di gest it. For Kodol digests everything. ( It doesn't rely solely on pepsin, as other digesters do. Pepsin di gests albumen only. Kodol digests starch, fats and phosphates just as well as albu men. It afso does what the bowels do toward digestion. It supplies pan creatic juice. Kodoi alone does all that the eak, don't diet? Starve stomach docs and all that the bowels do. No other digester completely di gests all foods. Kodol stops tlic irritation of un ; digested food. All pains cease in stantly. ? It gives the weak stomach rest, A weak stomach is like a lame ankle. Nature alone can cure it. The best you can do is to give Na ture a chance. That is what Kodol docs. Let it, for a little time, do all the ; stomach's work. Let it stop the irritation, stop the pain. You will be surprised to sec how quickly the weak stomach recovers. Our Guarantee On the first dollar bottle of Kodol your- druggist gives a signed guar antee. If it fails to {do all wc claim, 3'our druggist returns' your money. You take no risk whatever. This $1.00 bottle contains 2'/? times as much as the r?0c bottle. Made by H. C. DeWitt & Co., Chicago.

When a stranger moves into a town there are certain problems which at once confront him. such as what to do with his allies und garbage, what pub lic school his children should attend. What taxes he should pay und when anil where. says the Municipal Journal and Engineer. There are certain ordi nances also which "me shouhl observe, such as that requiring cleaning the snow from his sidewalk within a cer tain time after each storm; not using a lawn sprinkler during certain hours, etc. Te<> often the citizen Is informed of such an ordinance only when its penally is enforced si gainst him. We do not know of any way in which a greater general benefit could be conferred by a citizens' society than by the compiling, publishing and gen eral distribution of a pamphlet, giving in the briefest possible form Iii? infor mation suggested above, in connection with which it would be desirable to 'prive the names and office addresses of the various city officials and a state ment as to what particular function of the city government and maintenance appertains to each. We would also suggest Hint a certain member of the society or possibly one for caeb ward or other subdivision of Ihe city lie named as a committee! ow complaints. 1o whom any citizen may report what he considers a dereliction of auy ofh chil or city employee, or. if it woold seem too great ti burden to impose upon one willing citizen to make him the mouthpiece lor universal com plaint, he could act as an itiformatioa bureau and instruct cftizer xmcern ing what department or individual of the city government complaints- should! be made to. HOLD YOUR BUSINESS. Town Must Organize to Fight the OTaiJ: Order Trust. - If you have an organization of busi ness men in your town, no matter what it may be called, no matter if it be seemingly dead, revive it for a vigor ous campaign in favor of home trade protection aud home town development and improcement. You can organize j around this question when all other lies fail to bind. The first duty of j local business men or organizations of i business men is to hold the business if the town. ' Do this first and now. j then go after outside propositions. There is now on foot a uutiunnl movement for the protection of the j home trade of the hume town. In this? movement the manufacturing and job-j hing interests and the local press are ! interested, "The Lord helps them who help \ themselves." It is up to the local merchants to j put their shoulders to the wheel and | help by sustaining Hie local press and j the national movement, of which the Talisman will bo the advocate and er poucnt on very broad lines. It must be made clear to those who ure the rsatnral customers of (he coun try merchants in every rural commu nity that the apparent temporary ad vantage that they imagine they obtain by sending their trade away from home is a deceptive advantage and carries with It an inevitable ultimate loss much greater than any possible present gain. <l1hnt this truth can be made clear to every one--so clear that he who runs may read?admits of no doubt, but It necessitates the active co-operation of the local country mer chants with the local press. Economic Civic Tidine?s. From every point of view tin? idea of . using vacant lots for gardening pur- | poses is a good oue, even if it is hedged around with limitations of one Kind or another and uaora particularly by the fact of the uncertain lime limit bn their availability. There are many Improve ment associations over the country ac tive in organizing and encouraging this work, aud as to the benefit to be se cured by both old aud young, wheth er the districts be open or congested, there is. little donbt. Moreover. thcioth er side of the question, the improve ment in appearance of the great ma jprity of vacant lots aud the conse quent effect on aay locality thus im proved, should aid the cause by induc ing a liberal acquiescence on the part of property owners In efforts so mutu ally beneficial. The moral agency of gardening in its uplifting influence ou human nature is in itself a powerful incentive to pin faith to gardening wherever opportunities offer. To some 1 the development iu growth ami frui Unn excites absorbing attention, ami to others (heir products are most allur ing. To both classes there Is that partic ular fascination which tends to encour age qualities highly benebeln! to the gardener as well :is especially so to the community. Much benefit may be de rived under proper organization and well defined plans from the cultivation of vacant lots either for profit or pleas ure. Parisian Paper Cans. The street department of I'aris has a bad reputation which it does not de serve, foreign visitors in particular complain that the streets of the capital are not kept iu a state of iicainess worthy of the City of Light. The fact tiial tiie pavements of I'aris are littered with scraps of paper to an oxteut un known i'.i London or [tcrliii is due. how ever, to Lhc permission given by the au thor-lies of I'aris to distribute adver Using matter In the streets.
