Holt house Drug Co., Declares Money Back If One Bottle Doesn’t Make Any Stomach Sufferer Rejoice. At last the way has been found to combine Pepsin v.-itli other corrective stomach agents so that it will do tile most good in the shortest poisible time. Why bother with slow actors when one dessertspoonful of this splendid and pleasant liquid remedy will cause gas, bloating, heaviness, acidity, heartburn or any upset condition of the stomach to speedily vanish.

But there is more to say about this remarkable remedy—something that will interest thor/ianils of < ( scpoiiident people. Dale's Mentha Pepsin not only quickly relieves stomach distress, but it also conquers stubborn indigestion, dyspepsia and gastritis, and puts an cud to dizziness, nervousness, headache, sleeplessness and despondency which distressing troubles are nearly always caused by chronic stomach disturbance.

Do you know that they are not? Anyway, whether you and I laugh laughs of motherly confidence and | scorn, or whether we get a little in-, digtiant ai the mere question, our! , government isn't laughing about it! | Our government is going to issue j sn,nun.imii pamphlets ot warning about ' it- 50,000, 000- so that one will fall j - into the hands of almost every other! person in the I’nlon. Senator Capper! . introduced the bill about these pamphlets into the senate, ami Hep--1 rt m illative Bong worth in Die house ' they are not laughing about it. There is an International Narcotic ; Education association, with Richmond Pearson Hobson at its head, and it is working night ami day. l passionately, furiously, prayerfully,! to get the horrible, the unbelievable, the frightening facts about American' school children and heroin before you and me. Notice that word ‘‘education.’’ That is the secret. If we cun warn our children in time, they are safe. But for Cod's sake warn yours today! Call them up now — this minute. Separte them lor a few minutes I from the game or the sporting section or whatever they are doing. Ask them if any hoy or girl lias ever. ! spoken to them at school of '‘heroin,” if any friend has ever suggested that | they trip P. just once. "for. the fun?" 1 if you know the facts, and talk to Captain Hobson as 1 did. you would realize that the chances are that your girl or boy has already had that experience. | This thing hag come upon us suddenly, like a lion out of a jungle. Heroin is a drug. | It causes, like many other coaltar derivatives, physical, moral and mental decline. The young i>eople | who use it degenerate and die comparatively young. The police head of a large city attributed more than 95j per cent of all violent ciinies over a| space of five years to its use, and ! 100 per cent of all murders. It makes a hoy feel arrogant, self-! satisfied, and above all. lawless. An inevitable effect is the making of rebels, lawbreakers, Captain Hobson told me. The addict feels indepen-! dent, nobody can control or direct I him. and a part of His self-satisfuc- j tion is to draw other hoys in. This is the danger. A carrier! pigeon could easily convey 500 doses* of tlie ding, it call lie manufactured almost anywhere, a week's use makes an addict, and an -addict is always a gainer of other addicts. To tight this new horror, this galloping social evil in our midst, is go 1 ing to take all that we have of courage, organization, and effort. It is no imaginary and hysterical alarm, it is a very real and present danger; worse ihan Huns, worse than "tin." worse than anything we have ever faced. It must iic stopped instantly, completely. And there is only one way to slop it. Kiliu atimi. Educate the children. Some years ago a mother l know 1 was fussing about the safety of au! eight-year-old boy. He could paddle. l I hut lie mustn’t fall off the pier. He I could help with the honnre, Dut ne. j mustn’t go too near. He could havej candy, but too much would make him sick, and so on. After awhile the little hoy said seriously and silently: “Mom, you know Lids are pretty careful. They don’t want to die!” And lie was right. Children don’t want to die. The moment we convince them that heroin is a form of misery and death, that the child who introduces it is irresponsible,That lie must be weeded out like a child with seal let fever or leporsy, then there is no more danger. fur that particular child. Warn them about the first temptation. It is a mild temptation, after all —nobody wtitits drugs, before lie tries them. Somebody dares him to .jump off the porch roof, and he jumps. Somebody dares him to stay under water halt a minute, and he nearly suffocates himself Ail that is pait of boyhood, of "fun.” Ami then some schoolmate suggests that lie sniff a white powder—your good little freckled honest unsuspecting boy. And why not? He grins, blinks, “It makes you feel funny,” he admits, uualarmed. "You like it better the next time,” says tHe little distributer, following his aborted, malignant instinct just as your hoy is following his healthy curious one. And one more lit tie life goes down toward the blackness and the pit. For heroin addicts are almost all in- . curable. i Tin's is a tru estory about a father - ami His boy. The father is an educator, and lie was indignant when he i was asked if heroin had gained any • victims, and made any headway in his school. t He called up his own fine, 15-year- ; old son. a good scholar, prominent - on the school eleven, and the hoy an- . sv.ered some questions openly and < Lankly perhaps a shade too readily 'and brightly, and arrogantly.

Drugs produce dreams — sensually sweet and restful at first, and quickly mating real life seem the dream. Then, usually in a few months, comes tile agony of hunger for heavier drugs. The little fiist doses | won't work any more, and every | fibre of the poisoned system is | screaming for fresli dreams and fresh oblivion.

Self-destruction, as a nation, could hardly take a quicker nr more deadly form. Our one hope of coping witii this evil is that it is so new. For it multiplies itself by leaps and hounds, and spreads secretly in I>l ices where we feel it least likely to find its way. We concern ourselves vitally with the sensational cases that are too late. When drink, or drugs or degeneracy, or sheer viciousness—or all combined tiring a horror story to the front pages of the' newspapers, we are all full of theories about punishments and justice and right and wrong.
