He says the mer chants. tsvfc to carry what their cus tomers want and their customers don't v/apt -the local bread. He puts the responsibility right square up to the hcisfwives or the ones who buy for the hbn>e. It now looks like, it is time fori the, housewives to demand Louis burg bread.

MAY CONgKK.Y Dear Editor: Since I have seen so many delinquent tax payers advertised In our county paper I wish to have just a few words. I wish to he well understood la the beginning, lhsve the highest esteem tor all of our officers from township Constable to Governor of our state be. cause I helped to put all of them in office. Just e few weeks ago there were advertised two pages In our county paper of land for county tanas: Last week there were about the same de. liuquents advertised. I wish to know who la to blame for all of this? If It is neceeaary for somf tfrpagr taxes it la necessary for all., lfjja. W not compulsory tor all to pay taxes It la not for some. The delinquent occupies jqet* as much space on the highway as any of us and tn some casee more spa eg. He occupies just as many deeka In pur school rooms, and he Is . entitled to them. But please ,for God's sake let ill of us who are .eligible of paying taxes be fed just ana' '"? VV I see in the last meeting of our Commissioners that they had .t?,%or rcw money to meet-their obltftaMens until new taxes could be cojlsplnd. Who is to pay the interest an these loans? We faithful taxpayers who go up and pay our taxes and only. sax, they are so high I don't see how we can pay them. Yea they are high hod will be so long as we have to pay for the man who doee not pay at all. I just wish to know to there some retnedy tor this? If so I wish to see it put into efTect and I Wttnve there are gther tax payers who Would like to see- the same. .. .

He states that an excess of hydro, chloric acid In the stomach retards digestion and starts food fermenta tion; then our meals sour like gar bage in a can, forming acid fluids and gases, which inflate the stomach like a toy ballbon. We then get that heavy, lumpy feeling in the chest, we erucate sour food, belch gas or have heartburn, flatulence, water-brash or nausea. He tells us to lay aside all dlges. tive aids and Instead get from any pharmacy two' .tablespoonfuls In a glass* of water before breakfast and -continue for a week.
