STOMACH TROUBLES b
+. DUE. TO AcIDlTY
so SAYS EMINENT SPECIALIST.

So-called stomach troubles, sucn as
indigestion. wind. and stomach-aehe
are in probably nine cases out of ten
simply, evidence 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, oppres-
sive feeling sometimes known as
heartburn, while the acid irritates and
inflames the delicate lining Of the
stomach. The trouble lies entirely in
the fermenting food. Such fermenta-
ton is unnatural, and acid formation
Is not only unnatural, but may involve
most serious consequences ii not cor
rected. To stop or prevent fermenLa-
ton of the food contents of the stom-
ach and to neutraliZe the acid and
render it bland and harmless, tea
spoonful of bisurated magnesia, proba-
bly, the best and most effective cor
rector of acid stomach known, should
be taken in a quarter of glass Of hot
or cold water Immediately after eat
ing, or whenever wind or acidity Is
felt. This stops the fermentation and
neutralizes the acidity in few mo-
ments. Fermentation, wind and acid
ity are dangerous and unnecessary.
Stop or prevent them by the use of a
proper antacid, such as bisurated mag
nesia, which can be obtained from any
druggist and thus enable the stomach
to do its work properly without being
hindered by poisonous gas and dan
gerous acids.-M. F. P. For sale by

BEFORE GUESTS

To petition the senators and con-
gressmen, while they are in Honolulu,
regarding settlement of the pass
port trouble with the local Chinese
consul, is the plan of the special COM
mittee from the United Society OF
Chinese in Honolulu.
1t is understood that the immigra-
ton officials are investigating the re-
ported denial of passports to Chinese
Nationalist, but the committee feels
that the opportunity to bring the mat
ter to the attention of the congress
men is too good not to be utilized.

HAIGHT.

February was ushered in with rain
which lasted two days with a slight
snow On Wednesday morning. What
the future days of the month will
disclose is hard to say, one thing,
however, is sure, the ground hog did
not see his shadow on the second.
Oakland Mills has another order
for army blankets, which will keep
the hands busy day and night for
some time.
There will be only two sales in this
vicinity this spring that we know of.
Doctor r. r. Wells will have one on
February Is, and Mr. William N
Haight will have his in March, as he
will be unable to do much in that
direction this summer on account Of
his recent sickness.
On account of the heavy rain
which fell on Monday night the water
was as high as the last rise, but did
not do any damage SO far as we know
at Oakland or North Branch. But
considerable damage to wheat fields
and roads has been done.
Owing to the numerous changes in
the weather colds are quite prevalent,
which keeps one busy trying the
numerous remedies
The mumps have about disappear
ed, at least for the time being, and
hope for good, as they have been IN
usually severe this winter.
Apples have taken quite a jump in
price, which makes one wish they had
now what they almost gave away last
fall.
