Why Acid StomachS
Are Dangerous

Acid in the stomach is dangerous and
frequently fatal, because acid from its
corrosive nature has a natural tendency
to destroy the mucous lining of the
stomach itself. No one Intentionally
swallows hydrochloric acid, but it is
often present in large Quantities as the
result of food fermentation in the stom-
ach resulting from the chemical action,
which so frequently follows the eating
of the daintiest and most tasty foods or
the indulgence in any form of alcoholic
stimulants, including beer. wine, liquors.
etc. This fermentation causes pain, I'M
easiness and discomfort because of the
acid, which burns like a red-hot IRON
and the formation of gas which dtstends
the stomach, causing shortness of
breath and palpitation Of the heart The
trouble being entirely due to the IN
natural condition of stomach contents,
and not in any way TO the fault of the
stomach itself, physicians have adopted
with marvellous success the plan of neu-
tralizing the acid and stopping the fer
mentation by means of one teaspoonful
of simple bisurated magnesia taken in a
little water Immediately after eating or
whenever discomfort Is felt. The imme-
date relief following the use of bisurat-
ed magnesia is striking proof of the con-
tention of medical men that failure TO
digest food properly is almost invariably
due to the acid condition of food con-
tents, and in no way the fault of the
stomach or vital organs.-AdY.

Local Option Advantages"

One of the advantages Ito the rum
trusD of local option is seen in a
small dispatch from Milford, Mass,
to the Boston Sunday Herald, under
date of May Is. 1t reads:
Milford was far from being a dry"
town today, though it is supposed to
be a no-license community since May
1. Two interstate express companies
brought into town from Providence
over 500 cases of beer and ale, exclus-
i've of kegs, half barrels and barrels
of ale and beer, the total amount be
ing close to four carloads. The stuff
came by the trolley express. The Mems
Civic League, who were responsible for
the selectmen not granting pony ex-
press licenses to the wholesale dealers
and others applying, are to have legal
counsel as to the right of the inter-
state companies to do business here.
There's the beauty of local option
and also the reason why the rum trust
fights so strenuously for local self
government" of their customers. A wet
town is a base of supplies from which
to work, even if every surrounding
town is dry. And they constantly tell
the people of every dry" town: you
are getting all the traffic and none of
the revenue; more liquor is sold in
your town than would be sold if you
had wide open saloons, why don't you
make money out of it for support of
poor, feeble minded, insane, for care
of roads and institutions? ?"
What do you think about it?

Refuses to Leave Post

The Methodist Board of Foreign Mis-
leo and all but one needed the advice
to leave that country without delay,
That one, Miss Laura Temple, decided
to remain at her post and face the
consequences of almost aefying both
factions of the Mexicans, between
which there is little choice. Miss
Temple is native of Pennsylvania, a
graduate of Allegheny College and
since 1903 has been principal of the
Sarah L. Keen College. She gives her
reasons for staying at her post in the
following letter to DR.. John w. But
Ter, head of the Mission work IN Mex
leo City, who is now in New York
City:
The industrial school with which
I am connected is outside the city linn
its, and has no protection save that
of native employees. While I am here
to give them directions by telephone
and pay them their wages promptly,
they will faithfully guard the ami
mails and contents of the buildings and
will care for the fruit trees and crops.
Should they know that l had left the
country, in less than three days moth
ing would be left of the transferable
property, because they would lose their
heads through fear and bandits would
do the rest
"Our Sarah L. Keen College property
here in the city would be less exposed,
but would doubtless soon be looted if
II became known that no one remained
in charge OF it. / have arranged t.
enter the English Hospital as a volun-
teer to help care for the wounded in
case there is fighting in this city. Miss
Wilson, the one in charge, has assured
me that my presence will mean much
to her. as the nurses with one excep-
ton have never been in the midst OF
q bombardment, and she is not sure
that she can depend on them.
IF l were in the United States
would volunteer to come here for Rec
Cross service. Now that I am here
why should / go away when there /.
an opportunity of serving?"

Action of a somewhat unusual char
acter has recently been taken by the
Russian government officials, in the
suppression of a government paper.
The publication in question, The Ros-
STA, became too liberal in some of its
views and published an article which
was considered at court to be tinged
with sedition. 1t appeared on the day
of M. Goremykin's accession and in
speaking of the three legislative fac
tors, had the audacity to state that a
third of the political power in tile state
ought to belong to the Duma, with
out whose cooperation no law should
be placed on the statute books. A
dyed in the-wool Conservative, Prince
Meschersky, called the attention of the
authorities to the seditious utterance
and the fate of the publication was
quickly settled.

The commercial mind cares little for
the beauties that Nature has SO law
ishly bestowed upon this or any other
country. Niagara Falls mas been the
object of repeated and persistent at
tacks by those who thought only of
the vast power to be generated and
sold. The United States and Canada
MADE an agreement that was thought
TO be strong enough in limiting the
amount of water to be drawn off above
the falls to save the beautiful scenery,
but it is now said that a group of
manufacturers have discovered a loop
hole whereby they hope soon to be
able TO utilize the shores at the falls
and the vast amount of water hourly
pouring over.

One on the Joker.

Congressman Frank Park of Geor-
gia smiled the other night when one
of the party remarked that the man
who couldn't take a joke should new
err try to give one. He said he was
reminded of the office wit.
One day a new boy came to work In
the office, and the wit, whose name
was Blinks, Immediately got on the
job.
See here, WILLIE" said he address
ing the new boy and handing him a
quarter, "just run over to Black and
Whites and tell them to give you
cents worth of pigeon milk. BRING
me the change"
With a calm face the boy left the
office. and right gleefully the stan
chuckIed. A half an hour later he re-
turned with a basket in his hand ano

thus offered our neighbors on the

One of the features of municipal gov
eminent in Europe behind which AM
erican cities lag is the swimming
bath, both outdoor and indoor, says
the Washington Star. A number of
cities in the United States within the
last decade have made progress in
this useful and otherwise desirable
municipal function, but most of the
big and populous places of the new
world are far below the European
standard in encouraging among the
classes and the masses this form of
personal hygiene and athletic exercise.

Wives of Mexico's Tommy Atkinses


IT sometimes sort of takes the edge
off the romance. to understand the
bald truth concerning a people about
whom we have known little other than
reports of casual visitors or the
dreams of story writers. Fritz Arno
Won de Ellen has written a compre-
hensive article about the women who
accompany the Mexican army, Tor
Harpers Weekly. The preparation
seems to have been by a man writing
from wide observance in the sunny
land of our troubled and troublesome
neighbor. Nj. Ellen says the women
who follow the army are generally OF
the Indian type, totally uneducated'
uaspeakably dirty, and apparently
quite content to undergo physical hard
shins for the sake of being with their
masters l use the word masters ad-
visedly, for it accurately expresses the
relationship of Mexican women to
Mexican men. The loyalty of the sold
ier's wife is more akin to that of
dog to its master than to that OF an
intelligent woman to her mate. she
expects to do the hard work and to be
cuffed about for her pains. Her brav-
cry (for frequently she follows her
husband into battle) is the bravery OF
stupidity that does not recognize dan
ger. Popular superstition, abroad at
least, pictures the Mexican woman as
second sister to the Spanish dancer
nervous, passionate, charmef with o
dagger hidden in her corsage. Moth
ing could be further from the truth, as
expressed by the inmates of novels,
by the shiftless creatures walking the
streets and standing in stolid con-
tentment if band is in the Plaza to
entertain them, and by the servants
of the soldiers who go to war.
Their features are heavy, their eyes
expressionless, and seldom do they
give any indication of the imagination
without which dread Of impending
danger does not exist. They are not
fighting for a cause. Not one in rs
can give even the most fragmentary
explanation of the rebellion, and this
applies TO the men as well as the wo-
men.
In most Mexican cities there is no
body of people corresponding to the
great middle class that does the work
and fights the battles of a strong ma
ton. There is a small upper class and
the indolent lower class that carries
in its veins mixture of Spanish-ln-
dian blood. These people live from
hand to mouth. Unless a battle comes
to their doorstep, personal pleasures
or woes are not affected. They are
lazy, easily pleased, easily annoyed,
crafty, hospitable and totally ire
sponsible. A hull-hght, or even band
concert on the Plaza is of greater mo-
ment than the success or failure of
Huerta. All these are the traits of
children, and they characterize the
Mexicans.

There are nine prohibition states, in
GLIDING West Virginia. In these pro-
hibition states there is an average of
46.5 paupers to every 100000 of popu-
lation, and 1883 insane to every 100,-
600 of population. Comparing these
figures with nine wet states, Arizona,
Connecticut, District of Columbia,
Montana, Nevada, New Jersey, New
York, Pennsylvania and Rhode Island,
we find an average of 1917 paupers
for every $1,000 of population, and
314.75 insane for every 100000 of popu-
lation.t These figures are from the
census of 1910. The rate of
paupers in Kansas, per 100000 pop
ulation, is only ass. The low
est average in the case of the IL
cense states named in S4.1 New Jer-
sey.) Kansas has 1922 insane per
100000 people. This is lower than any
of the wet states named except Ariz-
ona, which has 1919 insane per 100000
population. The next lowest wet state
is Montana with 1853
