Acid StOmaChS
Are Dangerous
Nine -tenths of All Stomach Trouble
Said to Be Due to Acdity.
A Physicians Advice on Cause and
Cure.

A famous physician whose successful
researches into the cause and cure of
stomach and intestinal diseases have
earned for him an international reputa-
ton, said in the course of a recent lee
ture that nearly all intestinal troubles
gans, We're directly traceable to a de-
ranged condition of the stomach which in
turn was due nine times out of ten to
excessive acidty commonly termed sour
stomach or heartburn, which not only
irritated and infiamed the delicate lining
of the stomach, but also set up gastritis
and stomach ulcers 1t is interesting to
note that he condemns the use of patent
medicines as well as of medical treat
ment for the stomach, stating that he
and his colleagues have secured re-
markable results by the use of ordinary
bisurated magnesfa, which, by neutral
izing the acidity of the food, removes the
source of the trouble. He contends that
It is as foolish to treat the stomach it
self as it would be for a man who
stepped on tack to rub liniment on the
foot without first removing the tack
Remove the tack and the foot will heal
itself-neutralize the acid and stomach
troubles will disappear. Irritating medi-
cines and medical treatments are useless,
SO long as the contents of the stomach
remain acid; remove the acidity, and
there will be no need for medicine-the
inf1amed lining of the stomach will then
heal itself sufferers from acidity, sour
stomach or heartburn should get small
druggist, and take teaspoonful in
quarter of a glass of hot or cold water
after meals, repeating In fifteen minutes,
If necessary, this being the dose which
the doctor has found most efacacious in
all cases.-uAdv.

WORD OF EXPLANATION
As to Method of Marking Dental In
spection Charts in Public Schools.

Questions have been asked by par
ents in regard to some details as
marked on the chart now being sent
howe from the different schools where
dental inspection has been in progress.
There will be found on the charts the
words Dental Attention followed by
mo" and Yes. If a line is drawn
under or through No, it means the
pupil has not received dental atten-
ton, but line through Yes signi-
fies that they have received or are re-
eeiving dental attention.
Therefore, If a chart is simply mark
ed with a line through Yes" and no
teeth are marked as decayed, it sim
ply means that the pupils teeth are
in first-class condition, or If there are
some small cavities, the inspector is
satisfied that the pupil Is receiving
regular attention from a dentist and
thinks it unnecessary to call 1t to the
attention of the parents in these cases.
