Benefit for Dominican
Sisters a Big Success

With temporary boxes built around
the stage to supply the demand for
seats, the benefit for the Dominican
Sisters at the Playhouse yesterday at
tracted an immense audience of So
ciety people. From an artistic and fl
nancial standpoint the venture was a
success.
Two playlets. dancing and tea COM
posed the program. The first play,
Suicides" was an amusing episode In
the lives of two men who would have
committed suicide had they not met
with very preposterous accident. The
acting of Charles Weston and Finley
d. Hayes was excellent.
"L'Autre Motif" one-act comedy,
with all participants speaking French,
met the heartIest approval of all. The
leading character was given an excel
lent impersonation by Viscountess
day. Others in the cast were Coun-
tess Thea Erdody. Countess de Bertier,
Miss Elliott, and Baron Z. de Nagle.
The proceeds of the entertainment
will go to the Dominican Sisters, who
recently acquired the property at 1621
Park road northwest.

WHAT DYSPEPTICS
SHOULD EAT
A PHYSICIANS ADVICE.

indigestion and practically all forms
OF stomach trouble are, nine times ont
OF teh' que 10 acidity; therefore stom-
ach sufferers should. whenever possible
avoid eating food that is acid in its ma
ture, or which by chemical action in the
stomach develops acidity. Unfortunate
ly, such rule eliminates most foods
which are pleasant to the taste az we'll
as those which are rich in blood 1esh
and nerve building properties. This is
the reason why dyspeptics and stomach
sufferers are usually 50 thin emaciated
and lacking In that vital energy which
can only come from a well fed body.
For the benefit OF those sufferers who
have been obliged to exclude from their
diet all starchy. sweet or fatty food
and are trying to keep up a misera BILE
existence on gluten products, would
suggest that you should try a meal OF
any food or foods which you NAV like
in moderate amount. taking immediate-
ly afterwards a teaSpoonful of bisurated
magnesia in a little hot or cold water.
This will neutraliZe any acid which may
be present, or which may be formed
and instead of the usual feeling OF nm
easiness and fullness you will find that
your food agrees with you.perfectly. hi
surated magNesia is doubtless the hest
food corrective and antacid known. II has
no direct action on the stomach: but
by neutraliZing the acldity of the food
contents. and thus removing the source
of the acid irritation which iniames the
delicate stomach lining. II does more
than could possible be done by any drug
or medicine. AS a physician. i believe
in the use Of medicine whenever neces-
sary. but / must admit that / cannot
see the sense Of dosing an infiamed and
irritated stomach with drugs instead of
getting rid of the acid-the cause of all
the trouble. Get little bisurated mag
nesia from your druggist. eat what you
want at your next meal. take some OF
the bisurated magnesia as directed
above. and see Il I'm not right. ."--Advt.
