Discussion of proposed removal of United Chistian Missionary Society headquarters from St. Louis to Indianapolis was continued today at St. Louis by the executive board. William H. Book. Chamber of Commerce civic affairs director, and the Rev. William F. Rothenburger, Third Christian Church pastor, who attended the board meeting Tuesday, returned Tuesday night. Book reported that of the seventeen directors out of twenty present Tuesday, all but four said they would vote for removal here. The board has been offered free use of the College of Missions building in Irvington. Final decision was delayed by discussion on rights of the Christian Women's Board of Missions to use of the College of Missions building, which might affect the building offer. Among arguments for removal was the more favorable taxation situation in Indiana. Opposition to the move was based on the statement that Indianapolis is farther away from the future growth of the organization; that St. Louis offers better facilities and is more metropolitan, and that a suitable building might be found in St. Louis. More than 125 employes, with an annual pay roll of $200,000, are employed at the headquarters. The society has assets of more than $8,000,000.

CEASED TO BE TROUBLED WITH GAS “Didn’t See a Well Day for Weeks—None of My Food Agreed With Me,” He Says.—Now Well. /‘After each meal, distress would come on me, and I would suffer bad pains,” says Mr. Peter Seeger, a Missouri Pacific railroad engineer, residing at 329 Elmwood Street, Kansas City, Mo. Mr. Seeger explains that the pain seemed to come from indigestion, as he had a sensation of gas, or bloated feeling in his stomach. ‘‘l found that by taking a pinch of BlackDraught, dry, after meals, I would be relieved,” he says. “I would carry Black-Draught to work with me. I took it for about a year and a half. I had read of another railroad man whose health had been helped by the use of BlackDraught, and as my ow T n symptoms were similar to his, I decided to try it. “None of my food agreed with me. I would frequently taste what I ate, long after my mefus, and I did not see a well day for weeks. I began taking a pinch of Black-Draught after each meal, and kept this up for several weeks. Gradually the pain left me, and I began to feel better. I ceased to be troubled with gas, and could eat what I liked. “I have been well now for a year, but I still keep Black-Draught, and take it to avoid constipation.”
