Pershing is Real Leader Says Omaha Business Man Success Shown in Every Endeavor Undertaken and Masterful Leadership in War Proves Army Chief Qualified for President, Says J. F. Ferguson. "Am I for Pershing for presi dent? I'll say I am! I'll say I'm for him first, last and all the time!" Thus spoke J. F. Ferguson, well known Omaha business man, who not only is convinced that General Pershing would make an excellent president of the United States, but has no difficulty .to assign reasons for his conviction. It is said that Mr. Ferguson has an intimate 'personal acquaintance with more merchants in Nebraska and western Iowa than any other man. . For many years he traveled, for the Paxton & Gallagher com pany in western Nebraska, making his home at York. Fifteen years ago he came to Omaha, and since then he has been a department man ager for this big wholesale concern. Wants Fearless Leader. He has always affiliated with the republican party, and he desires to see that party nominate at Chicago next June a candidate for the presi dency who will command the re spect and the support of republicans in all parts of the country, and who, when elected, will administer the government fearlessly and efficiently. Mr. rerguson said: I am tor Pershing because he" is a great lead er a big man among big men. Ev erything he has undertaken has spelled success. He led our glori ous boys to victory overseas. (And, by the way. I desire to say that I am strong for every boy who wore the uniform of tlrtgood old U. b. A. iiK the world war. Those boys de serve mighty well at our hands, and if General Pershing is elected presi dent they will have a friend at the national capital upon whom they will be able to depend. No one in the world has a better understand ing of them or a keener sympathy with them than has the great Ne- braskan who commanded the A. E. F. in France.) ' Knows No Failure. "General Pershing does not know that there is such a word as fail ure. He is distinctly a man of ac tion a man of deeds. I believe, if he is elected president, the world will be at peace. Although a warrior by profession, he is a man who stands for peace. Every foreign ruler and every foreign sec retary would know that he meant to do just exactly what he said he would do. They would respect his word. "He is from the west He is one of us. His whole career has been one of leadership. He is the great est American of us all. Roosevelt Knew Strength. "The immortal Roosevelt knew Pershing better than a.:y other twin knew him. He knew what he was doing when he advanced him from the rank of captain to that of a gen eral. I shall be proud to follow the leadership of one who has been so "thorough, so efficient, so 'super' in everything he has undertaken. Just think of all the distinguished gen erals of Europe who 'fell down in the world war and had to be re placed, and then compare their ca reers with the career of General Pershing. Even the great Joffre was replaced by roch. Go over the list of the big Ger man war lords who were weighed n the balance and found wanting. England, Italy in fact, all of the countries that were engaged in the great struggle had to replace their leaders that is, all of them had to do it except the United States. Gen eral Pershing was a success from J. F. Ferguson. the fust. He went over with our first troops and came back with them. "There is no doubt in my mind that the great Marshal Foch took General Pershing into his confidence from the moment he made that his toric statement, 'Lafayette, we are here,' and that from the first the American commander exerted a powerful influence upon the opera tions of the allied forces. Confi de ice was restored as soon as he arrived overseas. All of the allied commanders looked to him to do exactly what he did do namely, fin ish the great struggle in double quick time. "We republicans can win with Pershing, and when he is in the White House, Mexico and all the other nations of the world will know tint there is an American on guard. "What an honor, what a privilege for every Ncbraskan to be able to cast his vote at the primaries for the greatest American of us all! He is a citizen of this state. He is our neighbor. He is one of the world's biggest men. When we go to the polls on April 20, let every one of us republicans vote for Pershing, the patriot."

Both cars came to a stand still, i When Holzfaster refused to get out of the way and let Borwick pass, Borwick rose from his seat, extend ed his ai m over the windshield, and two shots were heard. Holzfaster boarded the running board of Borwick's car and struck at both Boiw'ck and Miss Howard. The car glided over into the ditch and Borwick grappled with Holz faster. Cost said.

It would not be nghrto make anv claims for Mr Hickson's power to al, but the fact that I asked him to come here at least shows that I ave confidence in him. "His power is based on the power cf God. He is a Christian healer." Unlike other alleged healers who have been traveling about the coun try, Mr. Hickson abhors publicity of any kind, according to Rev. Mr. Mann. Sensational, inaccurate re ports concerning his methods and Iv.lity to heal have caused him much ain, Rev. Mr. Mann says. AS Little neo To Keep Their Digestion Perfect Nothing Is So Safe and Pleasant as Stuart s Dyspepsia Tablets An experienced observer in charge of a large office said it was a waste of words to tell most people to eat plain food. They prefer the food that delights the eye. Checking up on the after effects the usual dis tresses of gassiness, sour risings, water brash, loginess and so on may be avoided by following the meal with one "or two Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets. These supply the stomach with an alkaline effect thus promot ing normal conditions as in health. This puts the O. K. on so-called rich food. Men and women are but children of a larger growth when it comes to eating the foods that satis fy, even though they may cause in digestion. Indigestion is not necessarily confined to those who live high. It may follow so simple a process as the flavor of a bay leaf, thyme, gar lic, sage or any of the other savory I'avorings to universally used in soups, roasts, dressings, etc. As a rule if the stomach balks at such things, it will be disturbed by cheese, milk, coffee, pies and almost, any thing that most people like so well. Such conditions as these are met quite adequately by following the meal with one or two Stuart's Dys pepsia Tablets. They digest food and at the same time supply the stomach with an alkaline effect that prevents, gassiness, heartburn, sour risings, drowsiness after eating and such distresses so familiar to those susceptible to indigestion or dys pepsia.
