after THE STORM.
Kansas City Trying to Restore Wire
and Car Service.

Kansas City, Feb. PA clear cold
day dawned in Missouri and Kansas.
The temperature, after dropping close
to zero, began a steady rise. The air
was still and crisp after yesterdays
blizzard. With the gradual restora-
ton of nearly normal transportation
facilities and wire communication
completely isolated yesterday came
more detailed reports of the suffer-
ing and Inconvenience that accom-
panied one of the worst storms known
in the MissOuri-Kansas region in a
half dozen years.
While the demoraHzed wire condi-
tions Of yesterday were improved
greatly today, officials of the telegraph
and telephone companies said 1t
would be several days before normal
conditions could be restored. Irregu-
lar train service hindered the wire
companies in getting their linemen to
trouble zones. Train service on all
lines was improved. Some trains from
the west reached the Union station
more than IL hours late. Traffic on
interurban lines was virtually normal
today. A night crew of workers
cleared eight inches of snow from
street car tracks here so that normal
service could be resumed this morn
ing. Hundreds of the unemployed
found work with the street depart
ment clearing the pavements.

HOW TO PREVENT
ACID STOMACHS AND
FOOD FERMENTATION
BY a Stomach Specialist.

AS a specialist who has spent manv
years in the study and treatment of
stomach troubles, 1 have been forced
to the conclusion that most neonle
who complain of stomach trouble nos
sess stomachs that are absolutely
healthy and normal. The real trouble
that which causes all the pain and diff
ficulty, is acid in the stomach. umal1v
due to. or aggravated by, food fermen.
tation. Acid irritates the delicate lin.
ing Of the stomach and food fermenta-
ton causes wind which distends the
stomach abnormally, causing that full
bloated feeling. Thus both acid and
fermentation interfere with and retard
the process of digestion. The stomach
is usually healthy and normal, but ir-
ritated almost past endurance by these
foreign elements-acid and wind. In
all such cases-and they comprise
over 80 per cent of all stomach diff
culties-the first and only step neces-
sary IL to neutralize the acid and stop
the fermentation by taking in a little
warm or cold water Immediately after
eating, q teaspoonful Of bisurate6
magnesia, which IL doubtless the best
and only really effective antacid and
food corrective known. The acid will
be neutralized and the fermentation
stopped almost instantly. and your
stomach will at once proceed to digest
the food in a healthy. normal man
ner Be sure to ask your chemist fol

found other forms utterly lacking IL

BADDERS' TROUBLES.
They Multiply-He Failed to Testify
in District Court, Too.

George S. Badders who refused to
testify in the involuntary bankruptcy
case brought against him in the fed
eral court, seems to have an aversion
to the witness stand. Judge John c..
Pollock of the United States district
court will make q lersonal investiga-
ton Of the government case. Today
Badders was named chief defendant
in a suit brought by the German
American bank in the district court.
The case was called. where is
Mr.. Badders?" queried Judge A. w.
Dana.
E. D. McKeever for the prosecution
looked inquiringly about the room.
Mr.. Badders was not there. The
court took judgment by default. And
the case will be tried without him.
The German-American bank alleges
failure to pay promissory note signed
by George S. Badders and endorsed
by Thomas w. Andrews. The bank
asks $1,000, the amount of the note,
with interest at per cent from Nov.
Is, 1911; it also asks that the stock
in the Marshall Clothing company be
sold under order Of court. Mr.. An
drews. formerly manager Of the Mar
shall Clothing company, recently
moved to California, and arrived in
Topeka this week to testify in the
case. He is represented by Otis Hun

Topeka HGhS Talk to The winds ana
Eject Olffcers.

During the last few weeks the wire
less station at the high school has
picked up many stations and CONVEX
sations have been carried on between
the station here and those In other
parts OF the surrounding states. Prob
ably the one most talked to is that OF
Harry Ziesents. student of the Law
renee. Kansas. He can heard
very distinctly here and Mr.. Ziesenis
says that T.. HI. s. comes in twice as
good as q station at Kansas City, MO.
Saturday night T. H. s. and sDM. the
call of the Lawrence station were in
communication with each other and 1t
was found out that a station was be-
ing set up at the high school at Law
renee and that 1t would be ready in
about three weeks. The transmitting
distance Of the station will be about
80 miles. 1t Is readily seen that the
nigh school here can. easily cOmmunt-
cate with them as soon as the set Is
completed. Mr.. Zfesenis has q one
half kil0watt station and the one
at the high school there will probably
the operator. at the high school station
here has a message for .Supt. Smith
of Lawrence public schools from the
superintendent of the Topeka schools.
This msssage. will be sent as soon az
Mr.. Smith returns to Lawrence. A
message will Also be received from Mr.
Smith for Mr.. Wilson OF Topeka.
One question that Is SO often asked
IL: How can you tell that the station
one can hear is in Texas or Florida
or wherever it may be?" 1t is answer
ed by this: Each station has call and
one can tell by the call where the sta
ton is and the station called for. Sta
tions in Oregon. Texas. Florida and the
station at Washington have all been
heard at the high school station.
A meeting Of the boys who are in
terested in wireless was held at the
high school Saturday night and wire
less club was formed. Kenneth Suth-
erland was elected president and C. H.
Wilmington, director. At the next
meeting which will be held in q short
time q history of wireless will be given
and a few papers read by different
members of the club. The purpose OF
the meetings is to give advice to the
wireless workers and give them an
opportunity Of finding out difficulties
which they have encountered in their
work. About thirty-five boys were
present at the meeting.
Sunday night the wireless was put
into practice trying to communicate
with some of the stations in Kansas
but the storm hindered the operators
from getting in touch with any OF
them. All the telephone lines were
down and the wireless was the only
means of communication.
