SUFFRAGE HIKERs ARE TO
INVADE GARRETT COUNTY
To Tramp for Eleven Days Over the
AlIeghenies.

Dressed in pretty blue bingham
frocks and wearing white Panamas
simply trimmed with white scarfs,
General Edna S. Latimer's "army"
will set out on June 10 to win Garrett
county for the cause. The campaign
will be made on foot and will last Ii
days.
Those who have enlisted besides
General Latimer are Lieut.. Gen."
Lola Carson Trax and ''Colonels"
Madge Thurlow, Minnie Jackson and
Sindler. Miss Thurlow is one of the
distinguished members of this years
graduating class at Goucher.
Miss ThurIow will not only "hike"
and help to distribute literature but
will be one of the official speakers of
the army. Misses Jackson, Trax and
Mrs. Latimer will share the oratorical
honors.
Except for bags that will be slung
across their shoulders and which will
contain copies of the Maryland Suf-
frage News, the mixers will not be en-
numbered with any baggage. Arrange
ments will be made whereby tooth
brushes and other accessories will be
sent from place to place as the army
moves forward on its march. Not
even court plaster will be included in
the impedlmenta, and the carrying of
powder puffs and face powder has been
declared unnecessary by the General. "
who insists that the Panamalthats will
be sufficient protection from the glare
OF the sun to prevent freckles and other
mlshaps to the complexion.
Owing to the fact that the towns of
Garrett county are very close together,
the army" does not expect to move
many miles on any one day. Probably
the greatest distance travelled a day
will be 10 miles and the smallest 6.
making an average of from 8:to miles
a day.
At the following places and on the
oates the army Will be present:
Rittlnger, II; Accident, IS; Friends
vile, 10; Sang Sun and McHenry, 20:
Oakland, June 81; Hutton and .Crellin,
Jnne %; back to Oakland %; Mountain
Lake and Deer Park, "a; Swanton, %,
Kitzmiller, 26, and bloomington, 81.
This makes total of IL walking days.
I'VE are not trying to establish
speed record, " expostulatcd Colonel
Trax. Our object in taking the hike
is to reach as many county. people as
possible and to enlist their sympathy
and influence. We want to give every
person in Garrett county chance to
hear suffrage argument who wants to.
Our object is entirely educational, and
not in any way to create a sensa ton.

HOW TO prevent
ACID SI0MACHS AND
fUOD FERMENTATION
BY a Stomach Specialist.

AS Il specialist who has spent many
years in the study and treatment OF
stomach troubles. have been forced
complain of stomach trouble possess
stomachS that are absolutely healthy
and normal. The real trouble. that
which causes all the pain and difficulty.
is acid in the stomach. usually due to
or aggravated by food fermentation.
Acid ,rritates the delicate lining OF the
stomach and food fermentation causes
wind which distends the stomach alb
normally, causing that full bloated feel
ing. Thus both acid and ferInentae zion
interfere with and retard the process
Of digestion. The stomach is usually
healthy and normal but irritated al
most past endurance by these foreign
elements--acid and wind. In all such
cases--and they comprise over so per
cent OF all stomach Gifiiculties--thc
first and only step necessary is to neu-
tralizh the acid and stop the fermenta-
ton by taking in little warm or cold
water Immediately after eating. from
one to two teaspoonfuls OF bisurated
magnesia, which is doubtless the best
and only really effective antacid and
food corrective known. The acid will
be neutralizcd an dthe fermentation
stopped almost instantly. and your
stomach will at once proceed to digest
the food in healthy. normal manner.
Be sure to ask your chemist for the
bisurated magnesia, as ! have found
other forms utterly lacking in its Pc
culiarly valuable properties.-F. ]. q.

Des Moines. Feb. 19.-John CoWnie.
candidate for governor. This is what
John Cownie has in mind.
Thus far nobody else has thought Of
it: but there are meetings and con-
ferences and out of them may come an
announcement in due time. Mr.. Cownie,
former member Of the board Of con-
troll has been out in the state talking
to farmers institutes. 1t is reported
that he sometimes turns aside from
good corn and better hogs and finds
that the farmers are still placing blame
on Governor Clarke for the tax levies
made in the various counties. Hence
the thought that John Cownie would
be good man for governor.
The late reports are that j. w. Row
ley has discovered, or almost discov-
cred, that governors are not made on
a knocker issue, and that he will not
go into the primary campaign at all.
There are a number who are declaring
it would be a fatal mistake to have
Rowley enter the primary campaign
and thus show how weak is the capi-
tol grounds tissue" RoWley is not
getting very far.
If Rowley should be pulled off and
Cownie be substituted for the candi-
dates Of the antis to everything in the
republican party it will cause no sur
prise.
The latest in regard to bull moose
machine plans Is to have Ex-senator
Harsh, Of Creston, as their candidate
for governor. Harsh is wealthy
banker and it is declared that over
lures have been made to him to join
the new party.
