WHAT PUBD1c1rY DOES

The manager of the Belgian Relief Fund declares, now that the gifts have passed the niIlion1d do11ar mark. that fully three-fourths of that record sum for a foreign charity was oontri- buted as the direct result. of newspap- ed advertising. This statement by MT. Edward B. Lyman of New York is another striking testimony to the value of publicity. There is no de- partment of human affairs in this day of printers ink and almost instantan- eous intercommunica,tion between the ends of the earth that is not depend ent upon the distribution of facts about itself for it's prosperity. The hapman-A1exander meetings in Bos- ton a few years ago owed much of their success to the publicity given
 them by the newspapers. and the evangelists acknowledged the fact. It has been so with the Billy Sunday campaign just closed in Philadelpia. Publicity A markets the merchant s wares,. promotes the statesman's poli- tics, opens poclxet-books to the needs of distress, procures students for schools, recruits for the army and navy and ''fans,' for the 'tbleachers'' at the ball parks It is the raw ma terial of opinion and conviction. Busi- 1 ness men understand this and phil anthropists and religious workers ap- preciate it more and more.-Boston Herald.

Upon landing they were cared for by the authori- ties and sent to Rotterdam by train. All hands were saved.

Syracuse, N. Y., April 22-The big gun for the prosecution in the libel suit brought by William Barnes, Jr.. against former President Roosevelt is William M. Twins. He opened the case for MT. Barnes. He paid many com p1iments to Colonel Roosevelt's ability, but carefully pressed home the argu- ment that an ex-president of the Unit ed States had no more right than the humblest citizen to libel a. man. He fairly shouted when he pointed his fin ger at MT. Roosevelt and said: I've now call. upon this man, who has set himself up as arbiter of morals, to prove what he said in his statement. Using the immensity of his power, he has seen fit to tear down the plaintiff s character. It Is for him to substantiate his statements.'' F

HOW TO PREVENT
 ACID STOMACHS
And Food Fermentation
By a Stomach Specialist.


 As a specialist who has spent many stomach troubles, I 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 culty, is excessive acid in the stomach, aggravated by food fermentation. Fly per-ac1dity irritates the delicate lining of the stomach and food fermentation causes wind which distends the stom- ach ~abnOrIaa1ly, 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 irritated almost past endurance by these foreign eIeInents-acid and wind. In all such tcases-and they comprise over 90 per cent. of all stomach diff cu1ties-the first and only step neces- sary is to neutralize the acid and stop, the ferm entation by taking in a little warm or cold water immediately after eating, from one to two teaspoonfuls of bi5urated magneSia, which is doubt less the best and only. really effective antacid and food corrective known. The acid will be neutralized and the and your stomach will at once proceed to digest the food in a healthy, nor nal manner. Be sure to ask your druggist for the bisurated magnesia, as I have found other forms utterly lacking in it's peculiarly valuable prop erties-F. J. G..

ADDRESS YOUR MAIL
 TO BRANCH STATION
 FOR QUICK DELIVERY

People living in the East and West ends of the. city who wish to improve their mail service should ask their correspondents to place the words East Side Station,'' or West End Station on the envelope as the case may be. This insures prompt sde1iv- CTS as the letter does not have to go to the directory clerk at the central post office, but will be sent directly to the sub-station. Otherwise the letter is likely to be subjected to a wait of several hours at the directory clerks department.
 The using of the sub-station in the address ;s of course optional but it is particularly advisable in case where quick connections are desired.
