SSMMSW WASHINGTON, Feb. 9 -The re port of John G. Capers and James G Crampton, chief chemist officer of the intcrnat revenue, on the methods of denaturing alcohol practiced abroad, recently submitted to Congress, makes several recommendations for legislation affecting the industry in this country. The German system for fostering the production and use of alcohol could not be adop.ted in this country under the present laws, they state. It would he nccearv in order to procure an increase in the production of denatured alcohol, to provide for a direct bounty to be paid upon every gallon used for industrial jwrpote. The cheapness, of henrine and kero sene will operate, they urge, SRainst the ue of denatured alcohol, as a ! source of energy until the price of 1 jcohol is materially diminished They ! recommend also that Congress raise the limit of daily production imposed upon the industrial alcoholic produc ing distilleries from 100 to at least 200 and probably .100 proof gallons- They also recomment denaturing at the factories instead of at the distil leries. Greater efficiency of government inspectors is suggested as a means for the proper enforcement of the in ternal revenue law in respect to de natured alcohol. Mr. Charles ELHanfqrp.

Th eque&tion as to how long you are going to contrtiue a sufferer from Indigestion and Stomach trouble is merely a matter of how soon you be gin taking Diapcnin. If your Stoma, is lacking in di gestive power, why not help the stom ach to do its work, not with, drastic- drugs, but a re-cnforcement of diges five agents, such as are naturally at work in the stomach, People with weak Stomachs should eat Diapepsin after meals, and there will be no mor Indigestion, no feel ing like a lumo M lead in the stom ach, no hcartrwrn, Sour risings, Gas on Stomach or Belching of undigest ed food, Headaches, Dizziness or Vomiting, and,, besides, what you eat will not ferment and poison your breath with nauseous odors. All these symptoms resulting from a sour stomach and dyspepsia are generally relieved five minutes after eating one Triangule of Diapepsin. ' Go' to your druggist and get a 50 cent case of Pape's Diapepsin now, and you will always go to the table with a hearty appetite, and what you eat will taste good, because your stomach and intestines will be plean and fresh, and you will know there are not going to be my more bad nights' and miserable days for you They freshen you and snake yo feel like life ia worth liviT.

Pinkham you arc con fiding your private ills to a woman a woman whose ex perience with women's diseases covers twenty-five years. The present Mrs. Pinkham, daughter-in-law of Lydia E. Pinkham, was for years under her direction, and has ever since her decease continued to advise women. Many women suffer in silence and drift along from bad to worse, knowing well that they ought to have immediate assistance, but a natural modesty causes them to shrink from exposing themselves to the questions and probable examinations of even their family physician. Such ques tioning and examination is unnecessary. Without cos you can consult a woman whose knowledge from actual experience is great MRS. PINKHAM'S STANDING INVITATTONt 'Women suffering from any form of female weakness arehv vited to promptly communicate with Mrs. Pinkham at Lynn, Mass, All letters are received, opened, read and answered by women. A woman can freely talk of her private illness to a woman; thus has been established this confidence between Mrs. Pinkham and the women of America which has never been broken. Never has she published a testi monial or used a letter without the written consent of th writer, and never has the company allowed these confi den'.ial letters to get out of their possession, as the huo drevU f thousands of them in their files will attest Out of the vat volume of experience which Mrs, Pinfc ham has to draw from, it is more than possible that sht has gained the very knowledge needed in your case. She aks nothing in .return except your good will, and her advice has helped thousands. Surely any woman, rich or poor, should be glad to take advantage of this generous offer of assistance.
