In China whose civilization was old
before ours began. and which is there
fore coTrespondingly advanced in many many
particulars, they have solved one phase
of the matrimonial problem.
According to a recent newspaper dis
patch, young Chinese LADY, belonging
TO one of the most aristocratio fami,
lies. has just been married TO q red
flower vase--the vase being a substi-
tute for the young man TO whom she
was betrothed and who died just be-
fore the wedding. The prospective bride
wished to enjoy the dignities and free.

that are denied to maid, but her heart
was in the grave with her dead lover
and she couldn't bear TO think OF mar
ryfng another man. so the red HOVER
vase was suRstituted III, for me s,Ia bride G

For many years America has been
sending money and missionaries with

teous missionary retoTt and put us un-
der eternal obligation by Introducing
In America the pleasing custom OF mnr-
rying a woman to an inanimate object
when no animate object applies for the
job.
In this country there are not enough
wed, and every year piles mp the deacit
in the matrimonial bureau. What
should be done about the surplus wO-

Seemed unanswerable until the acute
Chinese came along with a susges tion
so simple and so direct that IL leave s
us wondering we didn't guess the an

popularize the idea ofmaITying a flower

A far greater number of women mar

They want the status of the married
woman. After all. they want the lib

to the absurd tradition that a single
woman. though she be ninety. is still Il
debutante, and that she must he chap

her to hear or speak of any topic that

Stomach Troubles
Due to Acidity
so SAYS EMINENT SPECIALIST.

So-called stomach troubles, such as
indigestion. wind, and stomach ache are
in probably nine cases out of ten simply
evidence that fermentation is taking
place in the food contents of the stom-
ach, causing the formation OF gas and
acids. Wind distends the stomach. and
causes that full, oppressive feeling
sometimes known as heartburn. while
the acid irrltates and inflames the del
icatc lining Of the stomach. The trou-
BILE lies entirely in the fermenting
food. Such fermentation is unnatural,
and acid formation Is not only un-
natural, but may involve most seri-
Gus consequences if not corrected To
stop or prevent fermentation OF the
food contents of the stomach and TO
neutralize the acid, and render it bland
and harmless, a teaspoonful Of bis
urated magnesia, probably the best and
most effective corrector of acid stom-
ach known, should be taken in q quar-
ter of glass of hot or cold water i'm
mediately after eating, or whenever
wind or acidity is felt This stops the
fermentation, and neutralizes the acid
ity in a few moments. Fermentation,
wind and aciditY arc dangerous and un-
necessary. Stop dT prevent them by
the use of proper antacid, such as
bisurated maguesia, which can be OBJ
tanned from any druggist and thus en-
able the stomach to do its work proper
ly without being hindered by poison
Gus gas and dangerous acids.-M. +. T..
