HOW TO PREVENT
ACID ST0MACHS
And Food Fermentation
By a stomach specialist.

As a specialist who has spent many
years in the study and treatment OF
stomach troubles, have been forced 10
the conclusion that most people who
complain Of stomach trouble possess
stomaehs that are absolutely healthy
and normal. The real trouble, that
which causes all the pain and difficulty,
is excessive acid in the stomach, az
grnvated by food fermentation. Hyper
acidity irritates the delicate lining Of
the stomach and food fermentation,
causes wind which distcnds the stomach
abnormally, causing that full bloated
feeling. Thus both acid and fcrmenta
tion interfere with and retard the pro
cess of digestion. The stomach is usual
ly healthy and normal, but irrituted al
most past endurance ny these foreign
clements--acid and wind. In all such
cases-and they comprise over 30 per
cent Of all stomach difficulties--tho
first and only step necessary is to neu-
tralize the acid and srop the fermenta
ton by taking in little warm or cool
water Immediately after eating, from
one to two teaspoonfufs of bisurnted
magnesa, which is doubtless the best
and only really effective antocid and
food corrective known. The acid will
be ncutralized and the fermentation
stopped almost instantly, and your
stomach will at once proceed to digest
the food in healthy, normal manner.
Be sure TO ask your druggist for tho
bisurated magnesia, as | have found
other forms utterly lacking IN its pc
culiarly valuable properties,--F j. q.

Washington, Sept. 22.-Through swell
tering days of international. crisis
(the word is stale in Washington)-
President Wilson again has demonstrat'
ed his marvellous ability to sit tight
and to think through to decision with
out seeing advisors and without furry
in White House routine.
So far as visible signs go, President
Wilson in these perilous days might be
quiet scholar leading a singularly un;
eventful and retired life in the big
honey old mansion among the trees.
During the most critical days of the
Arabic. Hesperian Dumba incidents he
saw Secretary of State Lansing for a
brief 40 minutes, ate luncheon at his
own table with Son.in-law McAdoo once
and in the course of a week received
formal calls lasting fifteen minutes
from not half dozen others-all per
sons of no importance to whom interna'
tional affairs are Greek.
Not once did the president sit across
the table from an official or personal
advisor and enjoy one Of those loose
and informal discussions that average
citizens crave when confronted by prcb
lens infinitely less absorbing and
momentous. One afternoon he sal
through ball game with the round
form of Secretary of the Interior Lan'
beside him, but the presidents shaking
shoulders showed that their converse
tion led far away from submarines anC
diplomatic eonspiracies.
All that policemen on the Whit'
House lawn and White House cor
respondents saw during these days wa
the leisurely White House routine O
golfing in the morning and motorinl
in the afternoon. At the executive OF
fices assistant secretaries read news
papers and talked tennis or baseball
The appointment book was nearl'
blank.
This does not mean that Presiden
Wilson hasn't his finger on the pulls
of the nation. He has imagination, 10
one thing, and il is declared it is Jus
because he wants to listen to the volc
Of all the people that he refuses to hi
ten to a handful who may or may no
represent the ninety. millions.

A penny looks big to some of the
unemployed. It would be laughable
if it was not such a tragedy, but even
for that miserable penny they may
get something that will temporarily
fill stomach that is eternaIly cry
ing for food.
Some of the unemployed who fire.
quent the place and who evidently
belong to the radical type have i'm
proved their opportunity by writing
upon sheets of cardboad signs read
ing: Work, not Charity. These
few words represent the sentiments
of the large majority of the unem-
plOyed.
They know only too well that char
ity, and especially the hypocriticaI
brand that covers a multitude of sins
and is so much in evidence nowadays,
has strong tendency to debase and
degrade the recipient. The idea of
becoming objects of charity is posi-
lively repulsive to them. Not only
are they willing, but actually anxious
to labor daily for a living, for they
know that honest labor VIII give them
a measure Of independence and en-
able them to look the world square in
the face. Work not charity proves
conc1usiVely that the self-respectfng
wOrkingman will not meekly bow his
head and accept the dole of charity
before having exhausted all possible
means to secure a job. This speaks
well for them and is evidence enough
to show that the overwhelming ma
jority of the unemployed will work \
and not shirk, as some of the know
would like to have us be-
ieve.
