MANY SUFFER,
THOUGH IT IS
UNNECESSARY
It Seems Strange That So Many
Folks Coniiooe to Be Stoms
ach Sufferers.
PROMPT RELIEF IS
W4iriNG FOR DYSPEPTICS
Miserable Is the man or woman who
suffers from droad Indigestion or Dys-
pupsla. There are few diseased which
create such misery, long-drawn-out suf-
fering as Indigestion. It pursues them
before meals, after meals and between
meals; they take It to bed with them.
Jt is with them wherever they go. though
Indigestion Is the simplest disease of all
to cure.
Tell such afflicted ones, dear reader, of
Fape's Dlapepsln; urge the sufferer to go
to any Pharmacy here and give 50 cents
lor a case. Buc'h a sufferer would ever
bless you, because flye minutes after tak-
ing there would be no more Indigestion,
no feeling like a lump of lead in the
stomach, or Heartburn, or fullness and
discomfort, no Belching of Gss or Eruc-
tations of Sour food, Debilitating Head-
ache, Nausea, Water Hrash und other
symptoms of a sour, disordered stomach.
Pape's Dlapepsln will digest anything
}"ou cat without the aid of the Stomach.
Dlapepsln Is a wonderful Stomach puri-
fier and splendid to keep the Intestines
clean and fresh; then your food will not
ferment and poison your breath with
nauseous odors.
Dlapepsln will rest the stomach a*i In-
crease the gastric Juices; this is what is
mostly needed—more and better digestive
Juices—and no Gns—then Indigestion and
all stomach trouble will go.
Each 50-cent case contains sufficient to
usually thoroughly cure the most chronic
dyspeptic.

CONFERENCE ON
EDUCATION IS IN
ANNUAL SESSION
Number of Matters Pertaining to
School Work in the South
Are Discussed.
IS A LEADER IN CONGRESS
GOVERNOR HOKE SMITH
TOUCHES ON THE NEGRO
ATLANTA, Ca., April 14.-The twelfth
annual conference for education in the
South wus formally opened tonight when
the conference was welcomed to Atlanta
by Governor Hoke Smith, und listened to
an address of the president, R. C. Ogdcn
of New York, as well as a paper on "Tile
American Spirit of Education," by Dr.
B. C. Mitchell, president ol' tho Uni-
versity of South Carolina.
Governor Smith's remarks were not
confined lo a speech of welcome. He
touched on the problems which the South,
as well as all other sections, had mot
and solved, and told of some of the aids
that could be seen. He pictured and com-
mended, above all others, the men and
women who are giving of their time and
money In an effort to aid humanity, but
he said that education is most effective
when It Is the education which builds
charities as well as imparls knowledge
of books.
"Tho first step ill the education of the
great body of negroes is to inspire a de-
sire to do better than the labor they are
called upon to perform, and to rid them
of a willingness to live poorly, If per-
chance a meager support can be mudo
with half-time labor.
"Experience shows that the negroes
Improved most rapidly where there are
fewest negroes in proportion to the num-
ber of whites. The best friend of the
negro should seek his distribution to all
sections. This can be accomplished by
more white settlers coming South, ami
more negroes going North, East ami
West."

being very satisfactory to the growers. As

be seen that onion growing in this section
is a paying proposition.

Time to Aet
Don't Walt for the Fatal
Stages of Kidney Illness,
Profit by San Antonio
People's Experiences
Occasional attacks of backache, Irregu-
lar urination, headaches and dizzy spells
are common early symptoms of kidney
disorders. It's an error to neglect these
ills. The attacks may paBS off for a time
but return with greater Intensity. If there
are symptoms of dropsy—puffy swellings
below the eyes, bloating of limbs and
ankles, or any part of the body, don t de-
lay a minute. Begin taking Doan's Kid-
ney Pills, and keep up the treatment until
the kidneys are well, when your old-time
health and vigor will return. Cures In
San Antonio prove the effectiveness of
this great kidney remedy.
Fred D. Bader Jr., Mesqulte and Daw-
son Streets, San Antonio, Texas, says: "I
think I am Justified In recommending
Doan's Kidney Pills, even though I have
not used all of one box. A lameness In
my back handicapped me in performing
my work and I was also annoyed by a
frequent desire to pass the kidney secre-
tions. When Doan's Kidney pills were
suggested to me as being a good remedy
for troubles such as 1' had, I procured a
box from the Bexar Drug Co. They
promptly relieved me and since using
them I have been free from kidney
trouble."
