WHY ACID STOMACHS
ARE DANGEROUS

Scientific Reports. April:-Acid in
the stomach is dangerous and Frequent
" fatal, because acid from its corrosive
nature has a natural tendency to de-
stroy the mucous lining of the stomach
itself. No one Intentionally swallows
hydro-chloric acid, but it is often pres
ent In large quantities as the result or
food fermentation In the stomach re-
sulting 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
stimuIants, including beer, wine, Iiq-
ueurs, etc This fermentation causes
pain, Ut easiress and discomfort because
of the acid which burns like a red-hot
iron, and the formation of gas which
distends the stomach. causing shortnesS
of breath and palpitation of the heart.
The trouble being entirely due to the
unnatural condition of stomach conten
and not in any way to the fault of the
stomach itself. physicians have adopt
ed with marvellous success the plan of
neutraIizing the acid and stopping the
fermentati ton BY means of one teaspoon
full of simple bfsurated magnesia taken
in a little water Immediately after eat
ing or whenever discomfort Is felt. The
immediate relief following the use of
bisurated magnesia is striking proof Of
the contention of medical men that
failure to digest food properly Is al
most invariably due to the acid condt-
ton Of food contents, and in no way
the fault of the stomach or vital or

VILLA AND CARRANzA
DECIDE ON ATTITUDE
Reports of Break Between
/ Rebel Chiefs Set at Rest by
Conference.

CHIHUAHUA, Mexico, April IL
Gen. Francisco Villa, ICalmander-in-
chief of Mexican constitutionalist army,
today resumed his secret conferences
with Gen. Venustiano Carranza here.
After a series of meetings yesterday
the chiefs declined to state what they
had decided to do. 1t is believed, how
ever, that they have reached deter
mination regarding the attitude of con-
stitutionalists toward the proposed
American punishment of General
Huerta.
The meeting between the chiefs was
very cordial and all reports of breach
were set at rest when the men We're
seen together. Villa today called in
physicians to dress his hand. wounded
during the battle of Sacramento.
The order for the march on Monterey
by constitutionalists was given today.
according to a report made to Carranza
by Gen. Pablo Gonzales. The rebel
forces have been distributed in the hills
about Monterey. The federal garrison
recently has erected fortitications and
prepared for 2 stubborn resistance.

THREAT TO EUROPE
IS SEEN BY KELLEY
"Hands-0 off" Move Made by
United States to Show Mon
roe Doctrine Lives.

That the naval demonstration at
Tampico is a notice to the nations
that the Monroe doctrine still HS~s,
was declared in the House today by
Congressman Kelley, of Michigan.
Republican, during the debate on the
naval appropriation bill.
Mexico, he said with emphasis, is not
to be exploited by foreign nations. no
matter what happens there between
this Government and the troubled re-
public.
Discussing the Monroe doctrine and
the Mexican situation. Congressman
Kelley said:
During the past thre years q ire
mendous war debt mas been incurred
By Mexico and heavy loans have been
made abroad. Some of those loans
have been secured by customs re-
ceipts, which would give a creditor ma
ton SO secured the right to seize the
customs houses Of Mexico whenever 1t
might be deemed necessary for the
protection Of its loans.
Students Of history are well aware
of the fact that when a nation becomes
heavily interested financially in the at
fairs of another, 1t is only short
slip to an attempted exercise Of SOW
ergeinty and political control in the
event Of serious domestic disturbances
to the debtor nation.
"a realization on the part OF this
Government that such q situation might
arise as a result Of the chaotic coEdi-
ditions in Mexico Is undoubtedly one
CT the reasons for the mobilization OF
practically the entire American navy
In Mexican waters at this time.
Such a show Of strength as has been
made in Mexico waters would not be
necessary II our only purpose was to
enforce an apology for an insult to
our flag from a weak nation like Next
CO, a nation without a navy and with
out Notifications. The effect of such
made will be to serve notice on the
world that the Monroe doctrine Is
still a vital part of foreign policy and,
no matter what happens in Mexico,
that unfortunate republic will not be
open to exploitation BY foreign nations.
to support not only Of the American
Congress but the people as well.
THE situation in Mexico has not only
been disturbing from the standpoint
of the preservation of the spirit of the
Monroe doctrine, but for many months
it has raised the very pertinent uues-
ton of the duty of this Government to
protect American citizens. as well as
citizens of foreign countries temporarily
residing there.
Since the war began the lives of
scores of American citizens have been
sacrificed in Mexico. The State Depart
ment is to be commended for the zeal
displayed in the Benton case, but 1t Is
a matter of extreme regret that
more rigorous policy has not been pur-
sued in protecting citizens of the uni
ted States"

was In great demand, the result OF
a patriotic speech by Congressman
Reilly, of Connecticut. on the war
resolution. Appealing to III fact ons
against making the question one OF
party politics, Reilly threw the House
into q tumrlt of patriotic demonstra-
ton by reciting the following nag
poem:
Your flag and our flag,
And how IL floats today.
Ger your land and my land.
And half the world away.
Blood-red and rose-red,
Its stripes forever CLEAN;
Snow white and soul white,
The good forefathers' dream.
SKI blue and true blue,
With stars that beam Alright;
A glorfed guidon of rhe lay,
A shelter through the night.
Your flag and my flag
Oh. how much 1t holds,
Your heart and my heart
Secure within Its folds.
Your heart and my heart
Beat quicker at the sight;
Sun kissed and wind tossed,
The red and blue and white.
The one flag! The great Tag,
The flag for me and you!
Glcrified. all else beside,
The red and white and blue.
