TnAW ASSUMES ALL
 BLAME FOR ESCAPE
Nevertheless, Court Orders Co-Defendants to the
 Tombs Last Night.

New York, March 1.-The story of his escape from Matteawan, of plot leading thereto, and the subsequent leading into Canada was told by Harry K. Thaw today.
 He denied that there was a con- spiracy. He assumed all credit for the blame and the successful engi- neering thereof He admitted paying Richard Butler as much as $6000, Out of which sum Butler was to reward the others.
 Thaw declared that his plot to escape was worked through "one of his agents"-H. A. Hoffman, of Poughkeepsie. Hoffman, he declared hired the men, arranged for the two motor cars-two were hired, lest one break down-and at ThaW's direction stationed the cars outside the gates of Matteawan on August 17, 1915.
 The trial today was studded liper- ally with surprises. Although Thaw tried to shoulder all responsibility his testimony was of such character that Franklin Kennedy, deputy at torney-general demanded at the close of the day that Butler, Eugene Duffy Thomas Flood and Thompson, be locked in the Tombs overnight, in- stead of being permitted to enjoy their bonded liberty. Justice Page so ordered.

Practical Prescription
 Against Stomach Acidlty

Nine-tenths of all cases of stom- ach trouble nowadays are caused Dy too much acid. In the beginning the stomach itself is not diseased but II this acid condition is allowed to con- tinue, the acid is very likely to eat into the stomach walls and produce stomach ulcers which may render q radical surgical operation necessary even to prolong life. Therefore, an "acid stomach" is really a dangerous condition and should be treated serl- ously It is utterly useless to take pepsin and ordinary stomach tablets The excess acid or stomach hyper acidity must be neutralized by the administration of an efficient antacid For this purpose the best remedy is bisurated magnesia taken in tea spoonful doses in a fourth of a glass of water after each meal. Larger quantities may be used if necessary as it is absolutely harmless. Be sure to ask your druggist for the bisurat- ed magnesia as other forms of mag nesia make effective mouth washes but they have not the same action on the stomach as the bisurated.
