Relieve Your
Stomach
Send for a Free Package of Stu

Let Them Digest Your
Food.
YOKE TKXVOB YOU MUST NOT DO.
If you have indigestion, loss of appe

lack of ambition, nausea and other
symptoms peculiar to all stomach trou

F First—Don't neglect your stomach by
letting it take care of itself, because it
will constantly grow worse.
■ Second—Don't use eheap “tonics."

tate and inflame the stomach and kites
tinea and which will ruin your health
completely; and
Third—Don t starve yourself, because
by so doing you are robbing the body
of its proper nourishment.
A large number of people do one of
> these three foolish things. That's why
they never regain their former health.
H Starvation is a common practice among
people who have weak stomachs, but

take the place of your stomach and do
Its work—some substitute that will di
and assimilate the food, thus giv
ing the body its proper nourishment,

Strong Resolution Refuting

(By Assoeiatsd Preas.y
TOKIO, Feb. 23. —A meeting of Ameri
cans resident in Japan was held in Yo
kohama recently In the interest of the
International peace movement and a res
olution designed to refute* the report*
that public sentiment in thia country is
hostile to the United States was adopted
as follows:
"Resolved, That in our opinion the
people of Japan have at all times enter
tained the most friendly and cordial
sentiments toward the government and
people of the United States and that
there never has been and Is not now any
feeling other than one of confidence and
gratitude. We believe, upon evidence
which cannot be doubted, that there is
not to be found in the Japanese empire
any wish or thought other than to main
tain the most friendly and cordial rela
tions with the republic of the United
States and that any representations to
the contrary, wherever emanating and
from whatever cause proceeding, are
baseless calumnies which. If imcontra
dicted, can only,result in vast material
losses to th© people of both|Kovemments
and in creating an unhappy prejudice be
