Acid Stotnachs Are
Dangerous
Common sense Advice by q Distin.
nuiahod SDNejaljs$.

"Acid" stomachs are dangerous be-
cause acid irritates and inflames the
delicate lining of the stomach. thus
hindering and preventing the proper
action OF the stomach, and leading to
probably nine tenths of the cases of
stomach trouble from which people
suffer. Ordinary medicines and medi-
cinal treatments are useless In such
cases, for they leave the source of the
trouble, the acid In the stomach. as dan
gerous as ever. The acid must be neu-
tralized, and its formation prevented.
and the best thing for this purpose is a
teaspoonful Of bisurated magnesia, a
simple antacid, taken in little warm
or cold water after eating, which not
only neutralizes the acid, but also pre-
vents the fermentation from which
acidity is developed. Foods which or
dinarily cause greatest distress may be
eaten with impunity If the meal Is fol-
lowed with a little bisurated magnesia.
which can be obtained from any drug
xist, and should always be kept handy.

Des Moincs, May 6.--Patching up the
non partisan Judiciary election law may
not be such an easy matter, after all,

Lawyers who are planning to have
special Judiciary ballots printed and
furnished voters who arc not party men
rely on phrase in the election laws
which contenplates that every qualified
voter shall have the right of participa-
ton in the primary. This and other
clauses read together would seem to
make it the duty of the officials to per-
nit OF voting at the judicial primary
by those who are not members of any
OF the parties.
Up to High Court.
Judge McHenry. OF the district court,
issued mindamus order under which
the county auditor of Polk county must
furnish an Independent ballot. contain
ing only the judicial ticket. In order
that the rule might prevail all over the
state the supreme court was asked to
do the very unusual and extraordinary
thing of hearing an appeal instantly
and deciding it off hand. MIR. Cosson
stated to the court that unless it is will
ing to do so. he would not appeal from
the McHenry decision, but let it stand
unchallenged.
The matter was left in this some :
what hazy condition to be determined
in court today.
The peculiar situation OF this Law
first made public in this correspondence
early last week has attracted state
wide attention. a. L. Coates. the we'll
known rrohibitionist. was first to take
it up seriously and he went at once to
the attorney general with the matter. 1t
