FLOOD WATERS ARE RECEDING Fears Os Serious Flood In Kansas City District Dispelled Kansas City, Mo., June 6 —(UP) —The menace of floods that have scourged five midwestern states the last week was definitely on the wane today. The crest of the Kaw river flood from Kansas and Nebraska will reach there today and empty into the Missouri River, but army engineers believe they can be absorbed INDIGESTION NOW THING OF PAST Years of Suffering Stopped When Indiana Lady Found Indo-Vin MRS. FRIEDA LACEY, of 1721 Laurel St., Indianapolis, Ind., says:

‘ For years 1 was ■a victim of stomBach trouble. My ■meals would not ■digest AT ALL wbut would lay Sphere in my stom’ach organs and iwould sour and Iturn to gas and Ijl’d keep belching Jup a sour, bitter ■ substance.

My meals are digesting perfectly now and my food never turns sour like it used to.” You can get Indo-Vin at the Holthouse drug store, here in Decatur, and from all leading druggists throughtout this whole section.

without serious damage W the central industrial district. Down the Missouri the worst hazards now appear to he at the eastern end of the river where it is flowing miles wide in the fertile valley from Hermann to the Mississippi river. Leveee have been broken and many acres are under water. Fear that a serious flood would result in the Kansas City district was dissipated when the crest « f the new Missouri flood from the north reached here yesterday, 24 hours ahead of the Kaw river flood tide. Engineers said the Missouri was able to carry off the flood from the north speedily enough to enable it to handle the K'iw flood, whiclh diminished in volume when dikes broke and water ipoured through them at an estimated rate of 20.000 cubic feet u second. Topeka weathered the flood, which went six feet above bank full, when the dikes held or were successfully patched when breaks .occurred. Residents of North Topeka, moved out by police, returned to t'heir homes today. At Lawrence the crest passed without great damage, although a levee break resulted in flooding of several thousand ‘acres. The break endangered 400 CCC recruits sandbagging the levee, but all raced to safety to the higher ground as th*
