HOW TO PREVENT
ACID ST0MACHS
AND room FERMENTATION
By a Stomach Specialist

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 healthy
and normal. The real trouble, that
which causes all the pain and diff
Guilty, is excessive acid in the stomach,
aggravated by food fermentation.
Hyperacidity irritates the delicate lin.
ing Of the stomach and food fermenta.
tion causes wind which distends the
stomach abnormally, causing that full
bloated feeling. Thus both acid and
fermentation interfere with and retard
the process Of digestion. The stomach
is usually healthy and normal, but irri-
tated almost past endurance by these
foreign elements-acid and wind. IN
all such cases--and they comprise over
80 per cent of all stomach difficulties
the first and only step necessary is
to neutralze the acid aud stop the
fermentation by taking in little
warm or cold water Immediately after
eating, from one to two teaspoOnfuls
Of hisurated magnesia, which is doubt
less the best and only really effective
antacid and food corrective known
The acid will be neuualized and tn,
fermentation stopped almost instantly
and your stomach will at once proceed
to digest the food in healthy, norma
manner BE sure TO ask your druggist
for the bisurated magnesia, as ] have
found other forms utterly lacking in
its peculiarly valuable properties

The amazing advance, in all the arts and
sciences, In the whole field, mechanical as
well as sociological since the last previous
international exposition, is shown at San
Francisco chiefly and most effectively
through the medium of the cinematograph
This is a miracle which previous expositions
lacked; but 1t is the most telling device en-
ployed here to narrate and display the
growth and spread of civilization 1t is the
voice and the picture of the modern speed
ing world. Every building in the grounds
holding any exhibits has moving picture
show of its own, with thousands of feet of
film. 1t is in this way that the industries,
manufactures, sciences and arts of the vari-
Gus countries are most strikingly presented.
With the assistance of these It is possible to
give an almost exact portrayal of any coun-
try involved; so that If one could devote
enough time to thorough sightseeing in the
whole exposition, one would become almost
as well acquainted with far countries as if
one had seen them.
In view of these two things. I ask again:
What Of the Church? Is it less confident of
It's own future, less willing to make COM
mitments Of men and of money than the au-
tomobile men are? And is II less alert. less
able to feel the pulse of the present and
less operative in producing the new stand
ards that are yet to be than managers of
nickelodeons? One could wish the Church

turers have in transportation and that It

GAS is HOLDING IT'S OWN

IyxTHEN Thomas A Edison announced in
w September, 1873 that he could produce
Electricity for large number OF lights by
using dynamo there was a panic among
holders Of shares of gas companies in Lon
don. They thought that gas was to be
superseded by the new light. But they
guessed wrong, as the owners of an old de-
vice usually guess wrong when a new inven-
tion in their line is made More gas viii

sar since its general adoption as an flu

Electricity, Instead of displacing gas has
spurred the gas producers to cheapening
their product and to inventing more eco
ncmicaI artistic and convenient methods of
|using II for lighting, and has led them to
perfect apparatus for the use OF gas for
producing heat and power. There are prob
ably more houses in Philadelphia with IA
Utilities for both gas and electric light than
were lighted by gas alone in 1875. And no
up-to-date kitchen is without a gas range
TOR cooking and a gas heater for hot water
Gas has been generally used in the United
States for less than 100 years. The first
patent on its manufacture was taken out in
1913 and the inventors lighted some New
England cotton mills by the new illuminant.
II was not until 1917 that the practicability
Of gas for general lighting was recognized.
when Baltimore began to use It, It's use
for street lighting dates from 1884, when
New York set up some gas lamps Philadel-
phia followed the example of New York in
1885. Chicago, which was then a small COM
munity, had gas lamps in 1s4O and Cincin-
natl, also much less populous than at pres

1871. Electricity has not been any more sue

WAR wIDENs THE HORIZON

TTNHE war is widening the outlook of hun
L dreds OF thousands. Evidence of this is
found in the large number of persons who
are seeking instruction in the languages of
Europe. English Is no longer enough, II they
are to have any intercourse with the out
side world, even though 1t has been suffl-
cient for the ordinary European tourist. But
the United States must soon come into
much more intimate relations with all parts
OF the world than it has sustained in the
past. Europe is stricken. and we must act
as its physician in a thousand ways, both
now and when the war ends. It needs what
we produce, and II American business men
can speak the language of France and Ger
many, Italy and Spain, as well as of Russia
and Holland, they will be much better quail
fed to play the part for which destiny has
cast them in the great commercial drama of
the future.
The alert business man will not conhne
his attention to Europe. The South Amer
lean continent is looking TO us to take the
place Of the Old World for the next genera
tion as the source OF capital for it's develop-
ment working knowledge of Spanish
must be acquired by whoever expects to get
into intimate relations with Argentina, Chill
and Peru, and the man who would do busi-
ness with Brazil will find the way smoothed
for him If he can speak and write Portuguese.
1t may be possible to court a maiden
through an interpreter but this is because
there is universal language understood of
all maidens that finds its expression without
words. Trade, however, cannot be won by
looks and sighs and hand pressure The

ness in the vernacular and 70 talk Il better

TRIPLE BLOW TO TRADE
