Waterloo, Dec. s0.--There promises
to be something doing down in the vi
cintty OF the state capital soon. War
has been declared upon the executive
council Of Iowa by the cities Of Wa
terloo, Grinnell, Charlton, Pella, and
dozen others, because the council
turned down. the proposition of the
Waterloo, Pella and Southwestern
railroad to issue bonds to build a
short line steam road connecting these
towns.
Delegations Of hundreds OF citizens
In Grinnell, Pella, Charlton and other
cities along the line OF the proposed
Improvement are waiting the signal
to descend upon the state house and
demand that the road officials be
permitted to construct the railway.
The trouble results from the provis-
ions OF the Peterson law, making it
necessary for any corporation to get
the consent of the executive council
before issuing a dollar OF stock. Act
ing under this law the executive
council granted the promoters the
right to issue stock to the amount of
$4,000 per mile, less any mortgage
that might be placed on the road.
1t is proposed to mortgage the road
for three and one-half million.
The executive council has been
asked to permit stock issue to cover
the 20 per cent discount necessary to
dispose Of the bonds in the eastern
market. This has been refused, cut
ting the road out OF 100000 without
which Vice President r. A. Harris,
chief promoter, says they cannot and
will not build the road.
Promoters claim that the road
when completed will have value OF
from $4,000 to 100000 per mile. They
support this claim by sworn state
ments from reputable railroad en-
gineers. declaring that the amount of
stock asked of the executive council
Is fair and reasonable.

lure Of Dyspepsia
psin Method Now Super
eeded by Modern RAJ F
tional Treatment
+ MUST STOP FERMENTATION
kny Good Neutralizing Mixture
Will Do, But N ust Not Depend
on pepsin Which is Inert
in lntestines

The majority of physicians IRE
coming to concede that In cases OF
fermentation in the intestines accom-
panied by gas. the ordinary pepsin
treatment is valueless. The indiscrln-
mate application of the pepsin treat
sment seems to have been due to its
successful use in cases of gastric in
sutficiency.
1t is now coming to be generally
known that pepsin is inefficient 'sX-
cept in an acid medium and that it
is consequently of no value in the
intestines, which are normally alkaline
in reaction.
Obstruction, fermentation. gas. all
the severer forms OF protracted, irldi-
gestion, require entirely different
treatment from the old pepsin meth
cd: they require an agent to stfmm-
late the pancreatic secretions, to lleu-
tralize the hyperacidity of the stom-
ach before it reaches the intestnes,
and to check the fermentation Of nn-
digested food and the formation of
gas. Even il pepsin We're not irlme-
diately destroyed in the alkalintty of
the intestines, it is incapable of check
ing fermentation. And in ferme'nta-
\ tion lies the danger of indigestion. 1t
leads to irritation and Inflammation
of THE bowels. and finally to vir:uai-
fly incurable liberation.
The correct treatment Of dyspepsia,
and in fact, of the milder forms OF
!, indigestion, lies dn the use Of almost
any good neutralizing mixture Or elk
ir.. The Following prescription has
been recommended as displaying
prompt results Get from your drug
gist y or sodium phosphate and |
/ ounce essence OF sealmint. Mix this
thoroughly in a half-pint bottle with
y teaspoonful Of good baking soda,
adding pure water to fill the bottle.
Take two teaspoonsful before each
meal.
1t is said that this mixture will re-
j. lieve the bowels of gas within fifteen
minutes. and that it will permanently
cure tho most aggravated cases with
!. in two or three weeks. Anyone is
tree to use this formula and make up
the medicine at home. All the ingre-.
diants can be had from any druggist
ct cost not exceeding 60 or IS cents.
