Dyspeptics easy
prey for many
fatal diseases
Flow to Get Rid Of Dyspepsia and be
Safe.

II you have dyspepsia your food is
only partly digested. Probably you
cannot eat as much and as many kinds
of food as your system really needs.
insufficient quantity and variety Of
food impairs the action OF the stom.
ach, liver and intestines. When these
organs are not operating normally
the blood becomes impure. When the
blood is allowed to remain impure for
considerable time, the whole system
becomes weakened. This weakening
run down condition comes on so
gradually that most people don't real
lie their condition until they are in
really dangerous shape It Is this
run down condition that makes pen-
pie very susceptible to sudden ATTACKS
of typhoid fever. pneumonia, pleurisy
and many other diseases. The old,
maxim about IAN ounce OF prevention"
applies with great force to this sub
iect. It is the simplest matter in the
world to prevent or overcome ordinary
DYSPEPSIA which is caused by an excess
of acid in the stomach. All that is
necessary is to neutralize the excess
acid To do so. simply take a tea
spoonful Of pure bisurated magnesia,
dissolved in a quarter of a glass Of
water, after each meal People trying
this simple acid neutralizer for the
first time. are amazed by the instant
relief and the quick restoration OF
normal appetite and digestion. Be
sure to get bisurated magnesia as
other forms of magnesia are not suit
able. Any druggist can supply you.

Il 10 Also Recommended That Trial

for Coming Term
Of Court.

II tho recomm endAtion OF the keo-
skuk Bar association is accepted by
the two presiding judges In the first
district i've terms Of court will be
held during the coming year. The
long term in the winter will be divid-
ed into two, and there will be no
court IN August and part Of July. An
other recommendation made, IL that
the trial Judge at the first Of the last
week of his term shall assign con-
|tinuances for the next term and that
these shall be tried in the order as
signed, without any 'ifs or ands."
The bar association met yesterday
afternoon. The meeting was called at
the suggestion Of Judge Bank, and It
is felt that the recommendations OF tho
bar, II accepted, will have the effect
of expediting business In the courts.
This was the reason for the two reso-
lutions which were passed.
The FIVE terms would be divided In
this manner: 8
Second Monday IN January; nrst
Monday in March; first Monday in
May; second Monday In Septembe.
and first Monday in November.
The summer vacation would include
most Of July and all of August. 1t
was suggested that no court be held

BROWNSVILLE, Texas. Sept. IA
Two thousand United States soldiers

combing the brush in Cameron ana

ed to be planning rendezvous at
Harlingen for an attack on Americans.
Rangers are pursuing force OF arm
ed Mexicans In the Tacoma section.
thirty miles from Harlingen. Every
Mexican found in this district is being
held, pending Investigation. The gov
eminent has ordered that all male
Mexicans be excluded from crossing
the international bridge and ferry to
this country. More than six hundred
crossed the ferry yesterday, 45 percent
being men. Five hundred families
crossed the Matamoros bridge, coming
from all sections Of the country. 1t
is believed here that recognition OF
Carranza by the United States will
mean battles between Villa sympa-
thizers and Americans.
United States soldiers yesterday
confiscated between three AMI i've
hundred guns and revolvers and large
quantities of ammunition, following
the battle at Galveston ranch which
resulted in the death OF one soldier
and the wounding Of two others.
Mexican officials at Matamoros have
been asked by United States officials
to arrest Ancieto Piano and Luis De
La Rosa, who are alleged to be the
leaders in melting Mexfcans to attack
Americans. These two Mexicans are
close friends Of General Nafarrete,
constitutionalist minister at Mata-
moros and so far the request has been
ignored.
Trenches are being constructed by
American soldiers along the river
near Fort Brown, opposite trenches
being built by Carranzistas on the
other side. Every precaution Is being
made to resist the expected invasion
by Mexicans on Thursday, their In
dependence day.
