HOW TO PREVENT
ACID ST0MACHS AND
FOOD FERMENTATION

AS specialist who has spent many
years in the study and treatment of
stomach troubles, have been forced to
the conclusion that most people who
COMPLAIN of stomach trouble possess
stomachs that are absolutely heal hy
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
aeidity irritates the delicate lining of the
stomach and food fermentation causes
wind which distends the stomach alb
normally, causing that full bloated feel
ing. Thus both acid and fermentation
interfere with and retard the process of
digestion. The stomach Is usually
healthy and normal, but irrltated al
most past endurance by these foreign
elements--acid and wind. In all such
easeE-and they comprise over 90 per
cent. of all stomach ditficulties-the first
and only step necessary is to neutraIize
the acid and stop the fermentation by
taking In a little warm or cold water
Immediately after eating, from one to two
teaspoonfuls of bisurated magnesia which
Is doubtless the best and only really
effective antacid and food corrective
known, The acid will be neutralised and
the fermentation stopped almost In
stantly, and your stomach will at once
proceed to digest the food In healthy,
normal manner. Be sure to ask your
druggist for the bisurated Inagnesia, as
have found other forms utterly lacking

Says Public Library Is Equal
TO School in Value to Town
Special to the Evening Star.

DOVER, Nov. 12.--Miss Sarah
Askew, of Trenton, organizer of the
State Library Commission, addressed
the members OF the Woman's Club at
their bi-monthly meeting in Palmer
Hall yesterday afternoon. Her sub-
ject was What Makes a Library
Success?"
The speaker maintained that the
library was equal to the school in it's
work and a commercial value to the
town. A centrally Located building
for library purposes only was very es-
sentia1 in promulgating the work, said
Miss Askew, and with proper circula-
tion of books each citizen is benefited.
Regarding the location of a library
building Miss Askew asserted that 1t
would be far better to have a rented
building on the main street than a
marble building on side street. The
address was unusually interesting to
the ladies in view of the fact that
steps are now being taken to procure
a suitable site on which to erect the
new Carnegie building, which is to
cost $4,000.
Secretary j. Buckner Debnam, of
the Board of Trade, addressed the
meeting and requested the co-opera-
tion of the women in building up a
strong organization. also to have rep
resentation in the Board of Trade as
q contributing member. The club
voted to submit the matter to the ex-
ecutiye committee and assured Mr..
Debnam that they would cooperate
for the betterment of the town, ex-
planning that the club since it's incep-
tion worked vigorously for the civic
welfare of the town.

as individuals, pledge their sympathy,
influence and active support. In
furtherance of this purpose they
earnestly commend the new associa-
tion to all the citizens of Summit and
the neighboring towns, for even a
greater measure of that support which
has been so generously given to the
older association during the eight
years of It's existence"
They also recommended that, after
the transfer is completed, the Summit
Hospital Association, at it's annual
meeting, shall take the necessary
steps to disband and end its corporate
existence.
At subsequent meeting of the
trustees of the Overlook Hospital As
sociation the officers of the associa-
tion were requested to confer with the

of a mutually satisfactory plan for
the gradual elimination of the pioneer
