Gas in the Stomach
Is Dangerous
Physicians Recommend the Use of Mag.
nesia,

Sufferers from indigestion or dyspepsia
should remember that the presence OF gas OF
wind In the stomach invariably indicates that
the stomach is troubled by excessive acidty.
This acid causes the food TO ferTnent, and
the fermentng food in turn gives rise 70
noxious gases, which distend the stomach.
hamper the normal functions Of vital internal
organs, cause acute headaches, interfere with
the action of the heart, and charge the blood
stream with deadly posons, which in time
must ruin the health. Physicians say that TO
quickly dspel dangerous accumulation Of
wind in the stomach and TO stop the food
fermentation which creates the gas the acid
In the stomach must be neutralized and that
for this purpose there Is nothing quite 30 good
ms a teaapoonful OF pure bisurated magnesia
taken in little water Immediately after
meals. This instantly neutralizes the acid
thus stopping fermentation and the formation
OF gas, and enables the infiamed, dstended
stomach to proceed with its work under nat
ural conditions Bisurated magnesia Is OBJ
tanned In powder or tablet form from the
Barre Drug Company or any druggist; but
as there are many different forms of magnesia
II is important that the bisurated, which the
physicians prescribe. should be distinctly asked
for.

HA Sly LEGISLATION.

Iowa City Citizen.1
In Des Moines the legislative COM
mittees are having round with the
new law providing for the selection
Of county superIntendents OF schools
by the vote OF the school district
presidents of each county. Repre-
sentative Charles Miller, OF Bremen
who is nearly always "agin the gov
eminent" was the advocate of bill
to restore the old form OF election by
the people. and the house committee
on schools voted yesterday is to to
report il out for passage.
For years we have been complain
ing in the state of Iowa that the posi-
ton OF county superintendent was not
attractive enough to secure candidates
from among the most competent ana
bes, paid school men OF the county.
A school principal with salary equal
to that OF county superintendent could
not afford to aspire to that Office, for
the expense Of his campaigns for cleo
ton, and the necessity OF supporting
the party organization would make It
a losing game. The result has been
that while occasionally the exceptional
man landed in the office. in most OK
the counties in Iowa the superintend-
sntS are women, VINO are ""iH'S ~
take the net salary.
Some women of course are as well
qualified as men, but II Is not the
proper thing to permit so important an
office to go to women because they are
the lowest bidders They should win
il on merit. II the city superintend-
ency should be given to wmoen be
cause no men would have 1t at the
salary the answer the people wouio
make would be to raise salary.
Further, no city would want to go TO
the plan OF electing its superintendent
BIZ a vote Of the people instead OF
vote Of the school board. they prefer
10 keep that position out OF politics.
That is what the new law proposes
