I would myself if I could." That set us to thinking. So many people have used them and have so enthusiastically sounded their praises both to us and their friends, that we had an idea you all knew about them. But, in the chance that some of you who suffer from in digestion, heartburn, dpspepsia. 01 some other stomach complaint, den't know about them we are writing this. They contain Bismuth and Pepsin, two of the greatest digestive aids known to medical science. They soothe and comfort the stomach, pro mote the secretion of gastric juice, help to auickly digest the food and convert it into rich, red blood, and improve the action of the bowels. We believe them to be the best remedy made for indigestion and dyspepsia. We certainly wouldn't oner them to you entirely at our risk unless we felt sure thtey would do you a lot of good If Rexalf Dyspepsia Tablets do not lelieve your indigestion, check thj heartburn, and make it possible for you to eat what you like whenever you like, come back and get your money. Sold only at the more than V.UUV Rexall stores, ard in this town only at our store. Three sizes, 25c., 50c. and $1.00. Standard Drug Co. and the Rexall Store, Asheboro, N. C. One Hundred and Fifty High Schools Are in Debates Liberty Paired With Elon. Interest is gathering not only in Chanel Hill but all over the State in the approaching State-wide contest of the High School Debating Union. One hundred and fifty schools are en rolled and the larger number of these are arranged in triangles for debates on March 20. It has been impossible to arrange triangles for some of the schools, so a group of two schools has been substituted in some cases for a full triangle. The schools which win both of their debates in the pre liminary contests will send their teams to Chapel Hill on April 3rd to take part in the final contest The Avcock Memorial Cup will be award ed to the final winner. Liberty is the only high school of Randolph county represented this year. This school was successful over Trinity and Jamestown last year, but on account of sickness among the debaters it did not take part in the final contest. Liberty is paired with Elon for the debates March 20. The school will be represented in these contests by Ira Hinshaw, D. Thompson, Cecil Frazier and Ivor Critcher. Hinshaw and Thompson were in the contest last year. BOMBAY ITEMS.. Rev. Siedman fulfilled his. regular appointment at Oak Grove.- church, j last Sunday and poeached a mast ex- cellent sermon.
