Acid Stomachs Are
Dangerous
Common Sense Advice by a Dis.
tinguished Specialist.

Acid" stomachs are dangerous because
acid irritates and inflames the delicate
lining of the stomach, thus hindering and
preventing the proper action of the stom-
ach, and leading to probably nine-tenths
of the cases of stomach trouble from
which people suffer- Ordinary medicines
and medicinal treatments are useless in
such cases, for they leave the source of
the trouble, the acid in the stomach, as
dangerous as ever. The acid must be
neutralized, and it's formation prevented,
and the best thing for this purpose Is
teaspoonful of bisurated magnesia, SIM
pie antacid, taken in 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
distress may be eaten with impunity il
the meal Is followed with little bisurat-
ed magnesia, which can be obtained from
any>drusgist, and Should always be kept
handy--hdy.

THE TOLLS TREATY

! Editor Reflector: What Is the
treaty that President Wilson refers
TO in trying to have congress repeal
the tolls section OF our Panama
regulations?-H. @.
The section is from Treaty TO
Facilitate the Construction OF a
Ship Canala, 1901. between Great
Bratain and the United States" This
is the so-called Hay-Pauncefote
treaty, concluded at Washington,
November IS. 1901, proclaimed Feb
ruary 20, 1902, and reads:
"The United States adopts, as
the basis OF the naturalization OF
such ship canal. the following rules.
substantially as embodied in the con-
vention of Constantinople, signed
the 2Sth OF October. 1888, for the
free navigation OF the suez Canal,
that ID to say:
~. The canal shall be free and
open to the vessels OF commerce and
of war Of all nations observing these
rules, on terms of entire equality,
80 that there shall be no discrimin-
alton against any such nation. or
its citizens or subjects. in respect
OF the conditions or charges Of traf-
fic, or otherwise. Such conditions
and charges Of traffic shall be Just
and equitable.
When the regulations for the
Panama canal were made congress
provided that American ships en-
gagged in coastwise trade and not
owned by railroad companies should
pass the canal free. Great Britain
objected on the basis of the above
treaty and President Wilson asks
congress to repeal the free tolls law.

END BENTON INVESTIGATION
Inquiry Brought Out q Poor De
tense For villa

Washington, March 24.-The In
quiry into the death of the Scotch
man, Benton, five weeks ago in
Juarez, which was directed by the
British foreign office, has been con-
cluded and the results were laid be
fore the British ambassador here
for transmission to London,
The testimony quoted by the con-
sui makes it appear that Benton
was unarmed when he entered Jua-
rez and sought Villas headquarters;
that he entered Villas office; that
there was tremendous scuffle fol-
lowed by perfect quiet. No witness
could be found who heard the sound
Of shot. Benton did not emerge
from that office alive, but where
and when his body was removed the
report does not disclose. The con-
sui drew the inference that Benton
had been killed by knife, and that
his body was secretly removed and
inferred somewhere in the imme-
date neighborhood, though there
was no direct testimony adduced to
sustain this inference.

DEMOCRATS FOR TOLLS REPEAL
Wilson Declares Majority Favored
1t In Canal Act

Washington, March 24.-Presi-
dent Wilson declared that in seek
ing the repeal of the Panama tolls
exemption he not only was asking
that the nation do that which it
was bound in honor to do, but was
going the way of the majority in the
Democratic party. He pointed out
that when the Panama canal act
was passed a majority of the Demo-
Gratis then in the house of represen-
tatives voted against the tolls exem-
ption and that only by a coalition
of a minority of Democrats with a
number of Republicans did the mea-
sure become law.

A GOOD MovBs4ENT

The Santa Fe Railway company
has started a nationwide movement
to reduce the heavy item of expense
growing out Of the loss of and dam
age to shipments Of freight. This
expenditure, 1t is said, amounts to
hundreds of thousands of dollars
annually. The plan of action calls
for increased efficiency in handling
freight. The Santa Fe not only has
enlisted the cooperation of other
railroads, but also Of shippers, and
the outlook is regarded as encour-
aging. More than 100 Santa Fe Of
ficials from all parts of the system
are having a meeting in San Diego,
Calf, this week to work out a
program by which they believe the
loss and damage item practically
will be eliminated. Officials of the
railway say the movement is not to
get out of paying legitimate claims
for loss and damage, but to prevent
the causes for such claims.
