SOURCE OF ODOR
ELUDES PROBERS
Health Inr. :ctors Comb Po
tomac Shores, but Fail to
Locate Stench.
trail for the source of the stench
that enveloped a large section of
Northwest Washington Tuesday night
led Health Department inspectors last
night to the smoldering dump near
the Virginia shores of the Potomac,
adjoining the Arlington Horse Show
grounds.
While this dump helched forth great
volumes of gray colored smoke which
a gentle southerly breeze swept across
the river and into the Potomac Park
regions, the sanitary inspectors report
ed that the odors which came with it
were not as offensive as those of the
preceding night, which had a decided
•mell of burning flesh.
As a result. Health Officer William
C. Fowler is not quite satisfied that
the dump is the offender and is reluc
tant to place the blame on it for Tues
day night’s ‘‘attack.” He gave assur
ance, however, that it would be ob
served carefully for some time, as
would other potential sources.
The dump odors apparently did not
cover as much territory as the nau
seating stench of Tuesday night, as
sanitary inspectors patrolling sections
outside of the Potomac Park region
failed to scent anything unnatural in
the atmosphere. The odors last night,
too, were mild. Dr. Fowler said, in
comparison with stenches that a dump
is capable of producing.
The Arlington County dump, accord
ing to District officials, is privately
owned and is used chiefly by a number
of Washington business establish
ments for disposal of rubbish.
Dr. Fowler explained that residents
in the section affected by the odors
can be of material assistance to the
Health Department by phoning the de
partment as soon as they detect the
smell.

OLD IN YEARS
| But Keeps Appetite Young
lllL - ill
An acid stomach ages people
much more than the years they
lire; it creates more thin and weak
bodies, and faces with sallow com
plexion than anything else; it
causes more bad breath and carves
more wrinkles of misery and age
than all other evils put together!
Why?
Because a stomach full of acid
sours your food, and starves your
body.
A tablet or two of Pape’s
Diapepsin chewed after meals will
dissolve the acid in your stomach
and clear up that sour, bloated,
drowsy feeling. It will help your
stomach digest your food. You
will get back your young appetite;
you will gain weight and your com
plexion will be clear and firm.
All drug stores have Pape’s
Diapepsin.
