most instructive debate the attitude
of the Bible in regard to woman suf-

that the Bible teaches equality Of the
sexes. But this equality does not abb

Equality does not mean to have the
same functions Equality and differ

Acid Stomachs Are
Dangerous
Common Sense Advlc. by pistIn-

Common Sense Advice by a DistIn-
ouished Specialist.
Acid stomachs are dangerous be-
cause acid irritates and infiames 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
stomach trouble from which people
suffer. Ordinary medicines and medi-
cinal treatments are useless in such
cases, for they leave the source Of
the trouble. the acid in the stomach,
as dangerous as ever. The acid must
be neutralized, and its formation pre-
vented, and the best thing for this
is teaspoonful of bisurated
maenesia, a simple antacid. taken in
a little warm or cold water after eat
ing, which not only neutralizes the
acid, but also prevents the fermenta-
ton from which aci6fty is developed.
Foods which ordinarily cause distress
may be eaten with impunity IL the
meal is followed with little bisurat-
ed magnesia, which can be obtained
from anr druggist, and should always
be kept handy.

better eastern and southern demand
there was the war horse trade to be
reckoned with. These purchasers were
active buyers. As fast a. the animals
could get before them they were TAX
en- or rejected. as the case may be.
They were in the market for gunners
and cavalry types. The ages of both
classes range from s to years and
horses have to come In this range or
be rejected The height il another
important factor. They must stand
from ISL to 1853 hands high. Thera
Is a slight difference in the weights.
The cavalry horses taken weigh about
LOO pounds and the artillery from
200 to 1900 pounds. Prices are on
a basis that shippers will lose no
money in getting these types on the
market, IL they buy the required kinds
in the country, and range from $3.50
to $170. j
Mules-It must be- said again that
the mule trade displays no improve
ment and there is absolutely nothing
doing. Receipts Of mules totaled the
enormous amount OF four head. Even
this meagre offering did not meet out
let. Shippers are advised to keep on
the market, as there is practically no
selling and no quotations.

ed some lives have been lost In the
worst disaster in the history OF New
York's subway today. For hours the
entire system was stalled. Long trains
filed to the point of suffocation with
passengers enroute to their work,
were tied up between stations.
At a part Of the line they were in
total darkness. On the section Of
the road between Ninety-sixth street
and Fourteenth many persons were
rendered unconscious from smoke.
And, as result of a blow out and
subsequent fire at Fifty-third street,
many passengers were burned.
Three alarms of fire brought all of
the available apparatus to Fifty
third street where the situation was
worst A grating was jammed loose
and fremen descending, reported that
there was train there filed with
passengers unconscious from smoke.
The situation in the tube was desper-
ate and the firemen could work only
in five minute relays. At that, many
Of the firemen were overcome and had
to be in turn rescued by their COM
panions-
So soon as the unconscious forms
were brought to the surface they
were given first aid by corps of
physicians who we're equipped with
pulmotors.
Reports that many actually had
smothered to death we're widely cir
culated, but Fire Commissioner Adam
son and Chief Kenlon who we're on
the scene said they could not con-
firm this. They pointed out that 1t
was possible that some OF those still
in the stalled cars in the tube might
have been smothered to death. but
that it would require complete
search to determine this.
More than $50 persons overcome by
smoke, were carried into the Circle
theatre at Columbus Circle and were
stretched out on the stage. Doctors
from the crowds rendered first aid
in this improvised hospital. One doc
tor said that two of the victims show
ed no signs Of life and that they were
taken away In an ambulance.
One Woman Dead,
NEW YORK, Jan. 6.-At 1880 Fire
Chief Kerlor who had been N the
subway at Fifty-ninth street where 500
persons were rescued from death fol
lowing an explosion and fire, said that
he did not believe there was any one
left in the stalled train. He said
that the fire was then out and that no
one was dead. One unidentified wo-
man, who died at the Polytechnic hos
pital, the chief said, would probably
be the only fatality of the worst trans
portation tie-up in the history of New
