Acid Stomachs Are
Dangerous
Common Sense Advice by a Distin.
guished Specialist.

Acid" stomachs are dangerous be-
cause acid irritates and inflames the
delicate lining OF the stomach. thus
hindering and preventing the proper
action Of the stomach. and leading TO
probably nine-tenths of the cases OF
stomach trouble from which people suf-
fer. Ordinary medicines and medicinal
treatments are useless in such caseA
for they leave the source OF the trouble
the acid in the stomach, as dangerous
as ever. The acid must be neutralized.
and Its formation prevented. and the
best thing for this purpose Is a tea
spoonful of bisurated magnesia. a SIM
pie antacid, taken in a little warm or
cold water after eating. which not only
neutralizes the acid, but also prevents
the fermentation from which acidity Is
developed. Foods which ordinarily cause
greatest distress may be eaten with I'M
punity IL the meal is followed with a
little bisurated magnesia, which can os
obtained from any druggist. and should
always be kept handy.-Advt.

What Shall do to be Saved?" was

Rev. Speigel said the question asked

question. The answers given were
suited to the condition Of the individ-

believe and instructed in the word of
the Lord; if he was believer, he was
told to repent; and if penitent be-
lever, he was told to be baptized.
Full obedience was required in every

CHAUNCEY DEPEW

New York, April 23.-Chauncey M.
Depew, former United States senator,
lawyer, financier, railroad president.
orator and postmaster of the art of
after-dinner speaking, celebrated his
eightieth birthday anniversary to-
day. That the occasion was marked
by the receipt of flood of congratula-
lions it is scarcely necessary to state,
for few men in America have a wider
circle of friends and acquaintances
than the genial ex-senator from New
York More than two weeks ago his
more intimate friends, business asso-
ciates and fellow club members com
menced to give dinners complimentary
to Mr.. Depew and in recognition of his
reaching the age of four-score years.
The ex-senator is in excellent health
for man of his years and as season
ed banquetter as could be found any
where in the land, but the rapid-fire
manner in which the complimentary
dinners were being thrust upon him
was rather more than he could stand,
so he decided to call halt and rest
up a bit rather than incur the risk oil
making his eigthieth milestone the
last of his life's journey.

EXPLAINS PURPOSE
OF BABY BUREAU
MRS. LATHRoP BELIEVES CHILD
MORTALITY CAN BE GREAT.
" REDUCED.
by Associated Press.)

Washington, April 23.-The work of
the Children's Bureau recently estab-
lished by the United States Depart
ment OF. Labor was reviewed by Miss
Julia C. Lathrop, chief, of the bureau,
in an address before the Third Inter-
national Congress on the Welfare of
the Child here today, and she spoke
of the work outlined for the future.
She said in part:
"The Children's Bureau has careful
ly avoided taking up any subject with
ing its field which was already in the
hands of any other government
agency. The first object selected for
study was infant mortality, because of
its obvious Importance, its compare
tive simplicity, and the fact that it was
not then being studied by another
government agency. The bulk Of the
allowance asked by the bureau for the
coming year in its proposed estimate
is designed for the continuance of this
study into infant mortality and for al
lied work.
1.-THE inquiry into infant mortality
conducted by the Childrens Bureau
is original in character, first because
it begins by study of the birth record
rather than the death record; second,
because it Is not medical study but
it's design is to secure data regarding
the social industrial and civic sur
roundings Of infancy in about fifty typi-
cal American communities. especially
small towns and distinctly rural dis
tricts.
"The results hoped are first, body
of valuable statistical information, sec
ond, an awakening of public interest
and responsibility by the mere fact OF
the inquiry, and third, information
upon which further advances in pre-
ventive work can be based. This in
quiry cannot go to any community
which does not register the births Of
its babies, and hence another natural
result is an Improvement in birth reg
istration.
"The problem of infant mortality
has been stated by the scientists. The
