HOW or MISTAH BUZZARD
WARNS HIS TOES.

often and ften had Peter Rabbit
wondered how or Mistah Buzzard
and all his other feathered friends
who had flown away to the far South
at the first hint tina, Jack Frost was
on his way to the Green Meadows

Peter that the South must he a very
wonderful and Very strange place. He
was not at all sure that he would like
il. II must hc Very nice not to have
oworry about finding enough to eat,
and yet--Weil, Peter did have lots of
fun in the snow. it seemed to him
that all those little people who we /.
away certainly missed great lcai.
Now, Winsome Bluebird had returned
from that far away South with the
good news that Mistress Spring was
not far behind. and Wnsomc had
promised 10 tell him all the news of
OF Nistah Buzzard and the other
friends.

HOW TO PREVENT
ACID STOMAcHS AND
FOOD FERMENTATION
BY q Stomach Specialist.

As a specialist who has spent many
Years in the study and treatment Of
stomach troubles, I have been forced to
;h" conclusion that most people who
complain of stomach trouble possess
st"machs that are absolutely healthy
aud normal. The real trouble that
w'iicI, causes all the pain and difficulty.
is acid in the stomach. usually duo TO,
or aggravated by food fermenta ton.
Acid irritates the delicate lining Of the
stomach and food fermentation causes
wind which distcnds the stomach ab-
normally. causing that fun bloated
feeling. Thus both acid and fsrmcnta-
ton interfere with and retsrd the pro-
cess of digestion. The stomach is usu-
ally healthy and normal. but irritated
almost past endurance by these foreign
elements-acid and wind. In all such
cases-and they comprise over 80 per
cent of all stomach difficulties-the first
and only step necessary is to neutral
ize the acid and stop the fermentation
by taking in q little warm or cold wat.
er Immediately after1 eating, from one
to two teaspoonfuls OF bisurated mag.
nesia, which is doubtless the best and
only really effective antacid and food
corrective known. The acid will be
neuralized and the fermentation stop
ped almost instantly. and your stomach
VIII at once proceed to digest the food
In healthy, normal manner. BE sure
to ask your chemist for the bisurated

utterly lacking in It's peculiarly valu-
able propertieE.-F. ). 6.

Peters eyes seemed fairly pop
out with curiosity. whats q toe
warmer?" he demanded. 81 never

look like.
Winsome Bluehird chuckled softly.

tinued Winsome, "if Farmer Browns
house was down South that thing out
OF which smoke comes would be one
of or Mstah Buzzard's toe-warm-
ers."
Peter looked sharply at Winsome
to see il he really meant what he
said. Doesn't anybody live in those
houses down South?" he asked sus-
piciously.
"Of course" replied Winsome. IF
they didn't how could Mistah Buz-
zard warm his toes?"
And he isn't afraid?" persisted
Peter. as IL it was very hard to be-
lievc.
Afraid" cried Winsomc. why.
he hasn't anything to be afraid Of.
Mr.. Buzzard is thought great deal

for him. And you won't see him back
