"On some com modities, the Calif ornians have us bested; on other things we are cheap er, and the average is about the same as ours. For instance, Los Angeles! pays more for its flour than we do and more for potatoes than we do j Canned goods are a shade cheaper! there than here, and fresh vegetables are much less there than here. Sugar is the same barring difference in the i freight rates.

V; When you have, trouble with your stomach or chronic constipation, don't imagine that your case is beyond help just because your doctor fails to give you relief. Mrs. G. Stengele, Plain field, N. J., writes: "For over a month past I have been troubled with my stomach. Everything I ate upset it terribly. One of Chamberlain's vertising booklets came to me. After-; j reading a few of the letters fr people who had been cured by Cbattg berlain's Tablets, I decided to tij them. I have taken nearly fourths of a package of them andcu now eat almost everything that Is want." For sale by all dealers.
