l transportation system at the highest 1 state of efficiency, with every facility ready to render the maximum of ser
 vice in the rapid assembling of i troops, movement of munitions and 1 transportation of supplies. ...E Valuable Beyond Money. z. There are, to be sure, abundant commercial reasons why it would well repay the American people to conserve and encourage their rail-
 road systems and make their more rapid expansion and upbuilding pos- s1ble. Well-constructed, well-equipped properly manned, s1ilfully managed and solvent railroads are necessary to healthy state of business. But as military resource, a vital element in preparedness, they would be val uable beyond the possibility of ex- pression in terms of money.
 During the period from which we are just emerging, when business was, to say svhe' least. quiet, our rail- roads were unab1g, for financial rea- sons, to improve their properties in anticipation Of return to what might call a prosperous era. Their earnings were not sufficient to war rant investors in supplying the capi- tai needed to provide facilities for the greatly enlarged traffic nor were they enough to enable the roads to put by a surplus for all those things which go to make up good railroad, but which, except to a very small extent, do not increase a railroads earning powers" .* <
 Refers to Teutons.
 MT. Dixon said that preparedness of railroads had played an important factor in the present European war and declared that the ability of the Teutonic allies to exist, thus far with in the ''iron ring was due in
 large measure to the perfection of plans and facilities for railroad trans portation in many directions.
 The speaker contended that the American people could not make a wiser investment in military prepar- edness than by allowing the privately l owned railroads sufficient income at ] all times. He made a plea for fair play for the railroads, and for ma 1 terial cooperation by the general l public in financial and other ways. 1 He explained that the Pennsylvania | SSotcuI Ildu pIcStHI IdCAllIloS LOT IIlOV- l ing 5,000,O00 men at once, if such
 a thing were feasible, but explained system were feasible, but explained that in time of war every railroad in l the country would become part of
 a great system controlled by the gov- ernment. For this reason, the speak l CT added, all of the roads should be | maintained at high state of efficien- cy.

Stomach Troubles
 Due To Acidity
So Says New York Physician.


 So-called stomach troubles, such as indigestion, wind, stomach-ache and inability to retain food, are in proba- bly, nine cases out of ten simply evil dence that fermentation is taking place in the food contents of the stomach causing the formation of gas and acids. Wind distends the stomach and causes that full, oppressive feel ing sometimes known as heartburn while the acid irritates and inflames the delicate lining of the stomach. The trouble lies entirely in the ex- cessive secretion of acid and fermen- tation of food Such fermentation is unnatural, and may involve harmful conseouences if not corrected. To stop or prevent fermentation of food contents of the stomach and to neu- tralize the acid, and render it bland and harmless, a teaspoonful of btsu- rated magnesia, perhaps the best and most effective corrector of acid stom- ach known, should be taken in a quarter of a glass of hot or cold wa ter immediately after eating, or when ever wind or acidity is felt. This stops the fermentation, and neutralizes the acidity in a few moments. Fermen- tation, wind and acidity are unneces- sary. Stop or prevent them by the use of a proper ant-acid such as bisu- rated magnesia, which can be ob- tained from any druggist and thus enable the stomach to do it's work properly without being hindered by gas and excessive acids.

HILL APPEALS FOR
 OUR MANUFACTURERS
Takes Up With State Department Matter of Materials Held In
 
 Storage in Rotterdam.
tspecial to the Herald ,

Especial to the tteIdiu
 Washington, Dec. 7.-Representa- tive Hill called at the Department of State last week and took up with the Secretary the matter of materials held in storage in Rotterdam belong ing to Connecticut manufacturers. When asked as to the result or his visit, MT. Hill said:
 'I have received quite a number of letters from different parties in my district with regard to the admission of bleaching material belonging to American citizens now in. storage in Rotterdam, and called at the Depart ment and requested the Secretary to ask the British Embassy to cable the British Government recommending the release of this property and so permit its shipment to the United States. I am advised that there is very strong probability that the rec omm endations of the British Govern ment will be favorable, as I sincerely hope it will be, thus relieving to considerable extent very serious situation in this country with refer ence to this matter. This property was owned by the Roessler & Hass- lacher Chemical Company. of New York City, and my suggestion to the users of this material is that they get into communication at once with those people and secure a share of this material to relieve their immedi- ate necessities when it arrives"

HANDY STOMACH REMEDY TO HAVE
 ABOUT THE HOME
Instantly stops indigestion, gas sourness, heartburn Or
 acidity.
The moment Tapes Diapepsin'' reaches the stomach all distress goes.

As there is often some one in your family who suffers an attack of indi- gestion, acid stomach, dyspepsia or some form of stomach trouble, why don't you keep Pape's Diapepsin in the house handy?
 This harmless blessing will digest anything you eat without the slight est discomfort, and overcome a sour, gassy stomach in five minutes.
 Tell your pharmacist to let you read the formula plainly printed on these 50-cent cases of Pape's Diapep- sin, then you will readily see why it makes indigestion, sour stomach, heartburn and other distress go in five minutes and relieves at once such miseries as belching of gas, eructa- tions of sour undigested food, nausea. headaches, dizziness, constipation and other stomach disorders.
 Some folks have tried so long to find relief from indigestion and dys- pepsia or an out of-order stomach with the common everyday cures ad- vertised that they have about made up their minds that they have some thing else wrong, or believe theirs is a case of nervousness, gastritis, ca tarrh of the stomach or cancer.
 This, no doubt, is a serious mistake. Your real trouble is, what you eat does not digest; instead, it ferments and sours, turns to acid gas and stomach poison, which putrefy in the digestive tract and intestines, and, be- sides, poison the breath with nause- ous odors.
 A hearty appetite, with thorough digestion, and without the slightest discomfort or misery of the stomach is waiting for you as soon as you decide to try Pape's Diapepsin.

RAILROADS ARE BIG
 FACTOR IN WAR TIME
Existence of S.Probably Would Depend on Them, Says Dixon

New York, Dec. 7.-The existence of the United States as a nation, in the event of war, would probably de- pend upon the ability of railroad systems to transport large bodies Of troops and quantities of supplies with speed and precision, according to statements made by George Dallas Dixon, "our condition of prepared traffic, of the Pennsylvania railroad, in an address before the InternatioD- al Trade Conference here yesterday.
 MT. Dixon said that aside from abundant commercial reasons for the conservation and encouragement Of railroad systems, especially those operating in the interior, the proper establishment and maintenance of large and modern systems all over the country was a military resource, a syital element in preparedness be- yond the possibility of expression Tn terms of money. ~
 Preparedness Vital Question.
 If the word should be flashed over this country that war had been declared ana that the OnlCeu oldISS was about to enter into @ conflict with another world power" said MT. Divon, "our condition of prepared ness would at once become imme- diately the most vital question before the American people.
 War has not been declared. Bur ] we have been compelled to consider possibilities and national prepared ] ness is being given much thought, One of it's most important phases
