BELASCO.

II it was the sincere desire of the
artist to first give her public something
new, something that had not been seen
before. then Marie Tempest can be for
given for not letting The Marriage OF
Kitty 60 first in her repertoire and
reserving its production at the Belasco
until last night. But many people III
Washington who have seen the Cosn'o
Gordon Lennox comedy and enJoyed
it's clean humor and clever situations
can hardly find 1t in their hearts 10
forgive the actress for reservlns
only two evenings of her farewell visit
here for it's presentation. Tonight Is
the only other opportunity that will De
given local theatergoers to see CON-
plete realization of the Kitty that
must have been in the mind OF the
original French author and his English
adapter.
1t will be remembered that Miss
Tempest was the producer Of the piece
originally in London. and that she made
the character such an important figure
in the English drama that even the
stolid theater moguls could not wat
until she could be persuaded to present
it here herself. so anxious were they
to get it before the public All of the
many charming Kittys that have been
seen in this country, from Margaret
Anglin to the stock favorites who have
interpreted the part, have given us the
Tempest production. But none of them
was Tempest-and SO none Of them was
really Kitty.
The story of the play is so familiar
that it hardly needs repeating. The
young English girl who Is thrown sud
denly into the world to make her living
finds the chance to become Independent
through marriage with man she prom
ises never to see again, to divorce
within a year and then learns to love-
all this is deliciously told in the way
Mss Tempest and her London company
present the piece. The star Is seen at
her very best. Piquant and self-reliant.
d:gnified and tender. each in its turn
she rings the changes Of the character
with a sincerity that Is most satisfy
ing. Just as the humor of the play and
its situations are universal appeal. 81
Mss Tempest's portrayal would be un.
derstood and appreciated in any corner
of the globe.
The support that is given the central
figure Of the comedy by w. Graham
Browne in the character Of Sir Reginald
Belsize was Of kind that entirely
satisfied. Mr.. Browne was at his be st
in the third act. although his presenta-
ton of the character throughout the
piece was entirely adequate. Mr.. Ross
as Travers was also well cast. 1.-THE
Marriage Of Kitty is to be presented
for the last time this evening.

HOW TO PREVENT
ACID ST0MACHS AND
FOOD FERMENTATION
By q Stomach Specialist.

AS a specialist who has spent many
years in the study and treatment Of
stomach troubles, l have been forced to
the conclusion that most people who
complain of stomach trouble possess
stomachs that are absolutely healthy
and normal The real trouble, that
which causes all the pain and difficulty,
is excessive acid in the stomach, ag
gravated by food fermentation. Hyper
acidity irritates the delicate lining of
the stomach and food fermentation
causes wind which distends the stomach
abnormally, causing that full bloated
feeling Thus both acid and fermenta-
ton interfere with and retard the proc
ess Of digestion The stomach is usually
healthy and normal, but irritated al
most past endurance by these foreign
elements-acid and wind. In all such
cases-and they comprise over 80 per
cent of all stomach difficult,es-thef first
and only step is 10 neutralize the acid
and stop the fermentation by taking in
a little warm or cold water immediate
ly after eating. from one to two tea
spoonfuls of bisurated magnesta, which
is 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 manner. Be sure TO ask your
druggist for the bisurated magnesia, as
have found other forms utterly lack
ing In its peculiarly valuable properties.
