WHAT DYSPEPTICS
 SHOULD EAT
A PHYsIcaANs ADvIcE

Indigestion and practically all forms of stomach touble are, nine times out of ten due to acidity: there fore stomach sufferers should when ever possible, avoid eating food that is acid in it's nature. which by chemical action in the stomach de- veIOps acidity- Unfortunately such rule eliminates most foods which are pleasant to the taste as well as those which are rich in blood, flesh and nerve building properties. This is the reason why dyspeptics and stomach sufferers are usually so thin, emaci- ated and lacking in that vital energy
 which can only come from a, we'll fed body. For the benefit of those suffer CTS who have been obliged to exclude from their diet all starchy, sweet or, fatty food, and who are trying to keep up 8 miserable existence on gluten products, I would suggest that you would try a meal of any food or foods which you may like in noder- ate, taking immediately afterwards a
 teaspoonful of bisurated magnesia in
 a little hot or cold water. This will
 neutraIize any acid that may be pres 1 ent, or which may be formed, and in
 stead of the usual feeling of uneasi- | ness and fuilness you will find that
 your food agrees with you perfectly
 Bisurated magnesia is doubtless the 1 best food corrective and antacid
 known It has no direct action on the
 stomach; but by neutra1izing the acid
 ity of the food contents, and thus re-
 moving the source of the acid irrita,- l tion which fnfiames the delicate >stom-
 ach lining, it does more than could | possibly be done by any other drug or
 medicine. As a physician I believe
 in the use of the medicine whenever
 necessary, but I must admit that I
 can not see the sense in dosing an 1 inf1amed and irritated stomach with 1 drugs instead of getting rid of the 1 acfd-t1e cause of all the trouble. | Get a little bisurated rnagnesia from your druggist, eat what you want at your next meal take some of the bi-
 surated magnesia as directed above, | and see if I'm not ight.'-Adv.

FIRE IN THEATRE,
 ER0HMAN ASSISTS
 BY AvERTING PANIC

New York, March 26-Fdre starting in the basement of the Lyceum thea ter in Forty-ffth street, east of Broadway, just as the curtain was about to rise for the matinee, yester- day, drove the, members of the cast to the street and compelled the au- dience of 300 to leave the theater.
 The blaze was in the lockers in the basement and so dense was the smoke that eight f1remen of Truck No. "A were compelled to drop their hose and make their way out for air. The fire was so difficult to get at and the smoke so thick the fremen were com pe1Ied to work in relays to avoid suf- location. Two passageways leading to tLe cellar were opened and then short work was made of the blaze. The damage amounted only to about $7OO.
 Stage Manager Wyndam, when first notified of the fire, entered a box of the theater and requested the audi ence to leave quietly. The men and women made their way in orderly procession down the aisles and into the street When the fire was out their money was refunded.
 Daniel F'rohnan was in the thea ter and. with Manager wyndam, went among the audience to avert any panic

 Last Testament Says.

New York. March 2e.-Ya1e Uni versity Is the principal benefciary under the will of General Brayton Ives, formerly president of the stock exchange and the Metropolitan Trust Company, which was filed today in the surrogates court.

General Ives died on October 22 last The will makes this explanation:
 AS the conditions upon which the separation agreement between my wife and me was effected, were, in my opinion, unjust to me and dis creditable to my wife and daughter, Winifred, and as the latter by reason of unfi1ia1 and cruel conduct has caused me great sorrow, it is my de- sire and intention to omit her name from among the benef1ciaries under my will and to prevent her from de- irving any benefit from my estate. ; It was said today that it is not improbable that there will be a con- test over the will of General Ives With the exception of specific be-
 quests amounting to about $30O,OOO and a trust fund to yield $1O,000 a year. the entire Ives estate is left to Yale University the alma mater of the testator.
 Mrs Uunice Maynard, another
 daughter, receives $10O,oOO and her husband, Walter P. Maynard, $25, ,0oG

one meaning. Yet London never

lowed by Bulgar cooperation.
Recently we pointed out that with
close and very active cooperation be-

be able to throw an army OF seven
hundred thousand men against their
foes e the Balkans. This estimate
was based on their being able to save
the main Serbian army and to receivs
substantial help from Russia. II now

save blood and ammunition If they
will cut and run while the going Is

There is no particular ADVANTAGE for
them to save Serbia after the Serbs
have all been killed or captured. They
have all the unproductive real estate
on their hands now that they can look
after and even II they were able &c
