Stomach Troubles
Due to Acidity
So Says Eminent Specialist.

So-called stomach troubles, such as in
digestion, wind, stomach.ache and in
ability to retain food, are in probably
nine cases out of ten, simply evidence
that fermentation is taking place in
the food contents of the stomach, caus-
ing the formation of gas and acids.
Wind distends the stomach, and causes
that full, oppressive feeling sometimes
known as heartburn, while the acid ir-
ritates and inflames the delicate lining
of the stomach. The trouble lies en-.
tirely in the fermenting food. Such
fermentation is unnatural, and acid for
nation is not only unnatural, but may
involve most serious consequences if
not corrected. To stop or prevent fer
mentation of the food contents of the
stomach and to neutralize the acid, and
render it bland and harmless, tea
spoonful of bisurated magnesia, prob
ably the best and most effective cor
rector of acid stomach known, should
be taken in a quarter of glass of hot
or cold water Immediately after eating,
or whenever wind or acidity is felt,
This stops the fermentation, and neu-
tralizes the acidity in few moments.
Fermentation, wind and acidity are
dangerous and unnecessary. Stop or
prevent them by the uso of a prope-
antacid, such as bisurated magnesia,
which can be obtained from any drug
gist and thus enable the stomach to do
its work properly without being him
dered by poisonous gas and dangerous
acids.-M +. P.

CHEMAWA WALKS Off
WILLAMETTE FLOOR
Indians Show Very Poor Sportsmanship
And Game Is Forfeited to the
Local Aggregation.
MUCH PEEvED OVER CALLS
OF FOULS AGAINST THEM
Again Demonstrate They Are Poor
Losers And Create Most Un-
favorable Impression.

Chemawa took another step toward
permanently acquiring the name of be-
ing poor sports in all branches of ath-
letics when their basketball team
walked off the floor in the first half
of practice game they were playing
with Willamette university yesterday
afternoon.
At the time that they left the floor
they had scored points by virtue
of throwing field baskets, while Will
lamette had acquired a like number of
taIlies by free throws granted them
on fouls resulting from the Indians
rough playing.
The captain Of the team took occasion
to swear at the official several times
before his team finally left the floor
Although the official had power to dis
qualify him for this conduct, he was
allowed to continue in the game until
he firAlly called his team off the
floor.
Game Declared Forfeited.
After the team had left the floor and
failed to return in the required time the
referee, 0. B. Gingrich, declared the
game forfeited to Willamette by the
score of to 0.
The poor craftsmanship exhibited by
'Chemawa was regretted by all present,
especially DR.. Sweetland, Willamette s
physical director, who had always had
the most kindly feelings toward the
Chemawa team and has done all in his
power to keep friendly relationship
existing between the two institutions.
While the game was intended to have
been nothing but practice contest, the
two teams playing with the idea of ben
efiting themselves rather than of see
ing who could win, it appeared ex-
ceedingly peculiar to the small group
of spectators tnat had gathered that
the red men should make such fuss
over the affair especially since in the
Judgment of their own coach as well
as many of the Willamette men they
appeared to have the advantage and
would have most probably have carried
off the laurels.
Not Good Sports
willamette is not the first school tC
experience difficulty in the retaining Of
peaceful relations with the training
school, both the local high school and
Y. M. c. A. as well as teams from the
surrounding country testify that the
conduct of the Indians is almost always
of an unsportsman like nature.
Since the red men are many Of then
good athletes the local fans are very
anxious that some move be made tt
remedy the very undesirable conditions
existing at present. Just what form tn
movement will take is as yet matte
of speculation.

GERMANS WIN ON
EASTERN FRONTS
OFFICIAL WAR BULLETIN SAYS
THAT RUSSIANS ARE BEING
SUCCESSFULLY NET.

+ Berlin, Nov. 1S.-An official war bull
letin given out in Berlin today sets
forth that the operatio on the east
ern front are progressing favoraby.
The Germans apparently are using
their victory at Wloclawek to the
greatest advantage. The Russian
armies defeated near Lipno are today
probably in the vicinity of Plock, and
the forces defeated near Wlociawek
are now near Kutno and Leschytea.
For the continuation Of operations,
the bulletin goes on to say, it will be
of the greatest Importance for the
German troops from the region of
Soldau to make further progress
against the right wing of the main
Russian army. If the Russians intend
to retire behind the Vistula, such a
retreat, considering the extremely bad
conditions of the roads, would be most
difficult; consequently the Russians
probably will prefer to make definite
stand when the German and Austrian
forces attack.
The papers of Berlin declare again
today that the fall of Belgrade, Servia,
is imminent.
According to a statement given out
in Vienna, the fortress of Przelnysl,
now being besieged by the Russians,
is provisioned for twelve months.

would serve short term with the

ing at all times under obligation to

passage of men thoroughly trained in
the school of the regular, or standing

so trained should not be held in the

whether the Tennessee or her launch,
