GEO. v. OUT
AS A DRY

LONDON, April 1. - King
George.y has added his name to
those OF David Lloyd-George and
Lord Kitchener in the cause of
prohibition for England.
He offers not only to give up
the use of all alcoholics in his
household, but also to use his in
fluence for the passage of a par
liamentary enactment for nation
al and absolute prohibition.
In a letter written by the king
to Lloyd-George yesterday, it was
stated that the one big cause for
prohibition at this time was that
the workmen in the ammunition
factories were lacking In effi-
cheney because of drink. This
would have the effect, said the
king, of leaving the men in the
field without necessary weapons
and supplies.

PRETTY GIRL
n VICTIM OF
APRIL FOOL

Gertrude Holmes, age 90
waitres In Pacific avenue cafe
was the victim of a mean April
fool joke today.
And Gertrude wants revenge.
The April fool Joke caused her
to lose the largest part OF one
pearl-like tooth. right in the cen
ter OF her pretty mouth. Tho
CHEEKY smile in days gone by was
wont to bring many patrons co
her station In the cafe. But now
her smile is ruined, temporarily,
anyhow.
Gertrude wants the guilty man
arrested, or she'll bring suit for
damages to her beauty.
A regular patron, she charges,
handed her a sack of candy at
breakfast After he had gone,
she bit into one of the chocolates.
But instead of a cream filling,
the chocolate contained a good
sized piece of gravel. And Ger
trude bit so hard that one of her
front teeth snapped off near the
root.
The panic-stricken girl rushed
to police court, but was told by
Constable Mathies that she could
not have the man arrested for an
April fool Joke. Sc she hurried
away, declaring bitterly that she
would bring suit against the man
whom, she declared, had ruined
her beauty.

BERTHA'S
THROUGH
WITH w. A.

You might say that Miss Ber-
tina III. Brosinski is practically
through with w. A. Sargent,
whom she claims as her former
fiance. In addition to a more
or less frigid attitude to Mr.. Sar-
gent, she is starting one crimi-
nal and one civil suit against
him.
If she Is successful in both
cases, her alleged former duckie
will not only do a little turn for
larceny. but will also have to
blow back with some money
which he raised by pawning vari-
GUS jewels which she gave him,
SO she charges.
Apparently. it's the old. old
triangle. Sargent. a married
man. constantly was in trouble
with his wife. Three times she
sued him for divorce. Twice
they were reconciled by Attorney
Selden: the third time the di-
vorce went through.
All this time, charges Miss
Brosinski, he had promised to
marry her as soon as the divorce
was over. She gave him valua-
bles, which he pawned. she says,
to pay the expenses of the di-
vorce. This he offered to do, but
she wished to wait the statutory
six months.
BY the time this was up, Sar-
gent once more had been recon-
ciled to his former wife and they
were remarked.
Wherefore, Miss Brosinski's
feeling of dispassion for Sar-
gent.

distress after eating, heartburn
or any other stomach trouble
due to hyperacidity 1.-THE usual
cause of stomach troubles). Won
should take no medicine to act
upon the stomach itself. That is
positively not the way to cure the
trouble. Again, you should not
half starve yourself by going
without the nutritious food that
you need to rebuild waste tissues.
Some foods are not good for
people even when In perfect
health-very rich, sweet, highly
seasoned dishes. Avoid these.
but eat fairly substantial meals
OF plain foods. Eat slowly. Even
IL you drink nothing but water,
you should not drink with meals.
Drink before and after eating. Do
not take pepsin or other artificial
digestants. If you follow the
foregoing simple instructions it
is probable that you will not
need any medicine at all except,
II you want to call It medicine. a
little antacid after meals. The
best antacid is ordinary bisurated
magnesia, which can be pur-
chased at any drug store. This
Is not to act upon the stomach
but on the contents of the
stomach. The antacid, as you
can learn by consulting your die
tionary or encyclopedias, is merely
to neutralize or counteract the
excess acid so the stomach can
digest the food normally. Take
teaspoonful of bisurated magne-
STA In a little cold or hot water
after each meal. You should get
immediateS relief. even IL your
case Is severe. Careful, moder-
ate eating and the use of bisurat-
ed magnesia should put YOUR
stomach in normal condition in al
short time; II you have not all
lowed dyspepsia to advance toT1
