EXPERTS AGAINST
ISLE OF SAFETY?
Metropolitan Designers Frown
Upon Comfort Sta
ton Plan

The. near approach of municipal
budget making time for 1916 has
! aroused a whole lot of conjecture
throughout the city as to just what
Harrisburg means to do with the
S25,000 loan authorized for the con-
struction of an isle of safety" and
Square.
The question of properly handling
the traffic in this district not on ~ in
the more or less distant future, but in
the actual present, is a serious one,
which is receiving the careful consid-
Grafton of the City Planning Commits
sion and the Municipal League.
That the league has even employed
experts to weigh the advantages and
disadvantages of constructing an isle
of safety and a public comfort station
| is generally known. Two experts, one
from Chicago, another from New
| York, were engaged. While the re-
ports on the problem will not likely
be released until the league meets
with the Planning Commission next
Monday. it is understood that the sug-
gested plan for providing an isle of
safety and comfort station in the
Square was not only disapproved, but
was even frowned upon by both the
New York and Chicago experts.
Reports of New York traffic officers
on conditions in the business section
will likely be considered Monday also.
Their report. it is understood will rec
ommend some method of establishing
one-way traffic regulation on the

Acid StOmachs

ABOUT NINE-TENTHS OF ALL STOM-
ACH TROUBLE SAID TO BE
DUE TO ACIDITY
A Physician's Advice ON Cause and Cure

A Physician's Advice ON Cause and Cure
A New York Physician who has made
a special study of stomach and intes-
final diseases says that nearly all IN
testinal troubles. as well as many dis
eases of the vital organs, are directly
traceable to a deranged condition of
the stomach. This in turn is due about
nine times out of ten to excessive acid
ity, commonly termed sour stomach or
heartburn. which not only irritates and
inilames the delicate lining of the
stomach but also may set up gaStritis
and in a large majority of cases gas
trio ulcers are accompanied by hyper
acidity. 1t is interesting to note that
he condemns the use of. patent medi-
cines. and practically all medical treat
stomach lining, stating that the best
results are obtained by the use of a
simple antacid which acts upon the con
tents of the stomach and neutraliZes
the source of the trouble. AS an ant
acid he prescribes ordinary bisurated
magnesia. He contends that 1T is as
foolish to treat the stomach itself as
it would be for a man who stepped on
tack to rub linament on the foot
without first removing the tack. Re-
move the tack and the foot win heal
itself-neutralize the acid and the
stomach troubles will disappear. Irri-
tating medicines and medical treatments
are useless, so long as the contents of
acidity and there will be no need for
medicine-the inflamed lining of the
stomach viii then heal itself. Sufferers
from aciditY, sour stomach and heart
burn should get a small bottle of bisur-
ated magnesia from their druggist, and
take a teaspoonful in a quarter of
glass of hot or cold water after each
meal repeating in fifteen minutes, if
necessary, this being the dose which
the doctor has found most effcacious
in all cases.--Advertiseme
