Why not start now—today,
and forever rid yourself of
Stomach trouble and indigestion?
A dieted stomach gets the blues
and grumbles. Give it a good
eat, then take Pape’s Diapepsin
to start the digestive juices work-
ing. There will be no dyspepsia
or belching of Gas or eructations
of undigested food; no feeling
like a lump of lead in the
stomach or heartburn, sick
headache and dizziness, and your
food will not ferment and poison
your breath with nauseous odors.
Pape’s Diapepsin costs only 50
cents for a large case at any
drug store here, and will relieve
the most obstinate case of indi-

Brownwood Min Inspects Ballinger Streets
end Makes Critijism.
G. A. Gwilliams visited Ballin-
ger last week. Mr, Gwilliams
is superintendent of the street
work in Brownwood, and in mak-
ing report to his home people of
what he saw in Ballinger he says
Brownwood streets are the best.
His report as published in the
Brownwood Bulletin is as fol-
lows:
“G. A. Gwilliams superintend-
ent of public works in Brown-
wood, took advantage of the
holidays and spent several days
at Ballinger for the express pur-
pose of studying street grading
Mr. Gwilliams is better pleased
with the work done on the
Brownwood streets since his re-
turn and says there is no doubt
but that Brownwood
better results, even
present machinery,
inger has with her
roller and the latent improved
grading machinery. He admits
that Ballinger is packing her
streets better than Brownwood
is, with the little horse roller,
but says the grade is not so good
and that drainage will be an im-
portant problem with them. Mr
Gwilliams is very anxious for the
city to purchase a large steam
roller, because he thinks the
streets can then be graded
way that there will be no
plaint.
The opinion is general
Brownwood streets would be all
right if the dirt and filth were
swept' off occasionally, and
the superintendent believes it
will be necessary for the city to
do this to get satisfaction
out of street grading. He thinks
that with a very little work the
streets in the business district
can be put in first class shape
and when the fund and bond is-
sue is expended the citizens will
have no complaining to make at
the progress of street grading.”
Ballinger is well satisfied with
her paved streets, and we don’t
believe there is a town in Texas
of a similiar size that can boast
of such splendid streets. Brown-
wood is a larger town than Bal-
linger is much older, and should
have had paved streets long be-
fore Ballinger, but did not, and
if it now has better streets than
Ballinger the town is certainly
to be congratulated, and we are
glad to know the old town is
waking up at last after a Rip Van
Winkle sleep of many years.
San Angelo is Well Fixed In Hotel Accomo
Rations
Seventy-five rooms were va-
cant at the Landon hotel Thurs-
day night, according to Landlord
James Landon. He stated that
no traveleng men were in the
hotel and that almost all of his
regular guests were gone else-
where for the holidays.
“Doesn’t look like w<3 need a
couple more stories?” asked Mr.
Landon as the Press News took
a glance at the register. “Only
seuenty-five rooms vacant in the
hotel at this time, and not a
chance to fill them all for two or
three weeks, until the traveling
men begin to get out on the
road again,” said the hotel man.
Mr. Landon then went on to
discuss whether or not it would
be good business judgment to
add several more stories to the
hotel, as the Press-News pub-
lished a short time ago he was
contemplating. He added that
there are sometimes several
months when the hotel is not
anywhere near filled, and said
for that reason he was going
slow.
The Landon hotel is not a small
hotel by a great deal. There
are few hotels in towns twice
the size of San Angelo as large
as the Landon. The Landon
gets a greats run of business
but like all businesses, there are
times when it is slack, and this
is certainly one of the particular
times.—San Angelo Press-News.
