Oyster Farming on PacifiA Coast

When the tide is out they look more like shocks of corn on an Iowa cornfield than anything else.
 Then when these are ready, the baby oysters promptly attach themselves to them and the farm is started. After about two and a half or three years these ba- bes have matured and are ready for | market. Once the farm is producer the crop is steady and regular.

Why Your Stomach Hurts
Some Common-Sense
BY A DOCTOR.

Pain in the stomach, variously call
ed Indigestion, dyspepsia, flatulence,
heartburn, stomach ache, etc, is usual
" attributed to some unnatural, alb.
normal or diseased condition of the
stomach itself, Nothing, however, could
be farther from the truth. Nineteen
times out of twenty the stomach is alb
solutely healthy and normal, the pain
and discomfort being entirely due to
the aeidity and fermentation of food
which irritates and distends the stom-
ach, although if this condition is al.
lowed to run on, in time the constant
irritation Of the acid is likely to eat
into the stomach walls and produce
ulcers of the stomach. Medicine is
useless in such case, The acid and
fermenting food must be removed by a
stomach pump or an emctic, or you
1ust neutralize the acid and stop the
fermentation by taking a teaspoonful
of bisurated magnesia in little wa.
ter; this latter is far the simpler and
the safer method BiSurated Magnesia
almost Immediately neutralizes the dan.
gerous acid and by correcting the food
contents enables even tired, weak
stomach to digest almost any food
without difficulty. Physicians advise
that bisurated magnesia should be kept
in every home and little taken after
every meal whenever the slightest ten.
