ACID STOMACHS ARE DANGEROUS
Common Sense Advice by Disttap
ouished SpeciaIist

Acid" stomachs are dangerous be-
cause acid irritates and inflames the
delicate lining of the stomach, thus
hindering and preventing the proper
action of the stomach, and leading to
probably nine-tenths of the cases of
tomach trouble from which people suf-
fer. Ordinary medicines and medicinal
treatments are useless in such cases,
for they leave the source of the trou-
Bile, the acid in the stomach, as dan
gerous as ever. The acid must be neu-
tralized, and its formation prevented,
and the best thing for this purpose is
a teaspoonful of bisurated magnesia,
a simple antacid taken in little
warm or cold water after eating, which
not only neutralizes the acid, but also
prevents the fermentation from which
activity is developed. Foods which or
cause distress may be eaten
with impunity if the meal is followed
with little bisurated magnesia, which
can be obtained from any druggist and
should always be kept handy.

Lime Treatment
in tuberculosis

In the May -. 1912. issue of the
journal Of the American Medical As-
sociation appeared this statement
concerning calcium tIimeD mcdica-
non In the treatment Of pulmonary
tuberculosis tconsumption):
nder the systematic, continued
hnu persistent regime of calcium
assimilation. Van GiesOn has seen a
number of his patients improve, up-
dergo an exudation or partial con-
soiidatioo In the Inng. which then re-
sowing would appear to contribute
10 the wnllfng on and closing of the
LESSONS. Hand In hand with thI,
course Of events, the sputum clears
up Of tubercle baciIIi, which finally
dtsnppear, and the patients are diS-
charged with healed pulmonary tu-
berculOsis.-
Ethical medical journals seldom
speak so positively about a remedial
agent, vet this testimony comedies
with that from many consumptives
who have secured like results
through the use of Ecknfan's Altera-
tive.
Since calcium is a constituent of
this remedy for pulmonary tubercu-
losis and allied throat and bronchial
affections. its healing power NAV in
some measure be attributed to the
manner in which this element is so
combined with other ingredients as
10 be easily assimilated by the aver
age person and IL does not irritate
the stomach.
Eckman's Alternative contains no
opiates. narcotics or habit forming
drugs. 50 IL is safe to try. IL your
druggist is out of IL, ask him 10
order. or send direct to

This staff is to take the place of the
present highway department of the
state. The law provides for an elab
crate system of road building and
incidentally for the collection of a
revenue from motor vehicles based
upon horsepower in lieu Of other
taxes that have been assessed in the
past. The law contains some general
rules as to construction of culverts
and bridges that are expected to bring
about more permanent construction,
and the outline of the duties of the
state department of roads and the
several county organizations seems
calculated to bring about a system of
state and county roads that will ulti-
mately improve the road system of
the state. The law provides for coun-
ty and township organizations and for
the expenditure of money by the
county commissioners for purchase OF
tools, machinery. equipment and ma
terials. 1t is noted that there Is al
ready activity among manufacturers
of road building machinery and the
outlook is that a large supply of this
sort OF equipment will be available
when the revenues shall be collected.
