HOW TO PREVENT
ACID STOMACHS AND
FOOD FERMENTATION.

Az a specialist who has spent many
wears in the study and treatment OF
stomach troubles, have been forced
"a the conclusion that most people
who complain of stomach trouble pos
sess stomachs that are absolutely
healthy and normal. The real trouble.
that which causes all the pain and
difficulty, is excessive acid In the
stomach. aggravated by food fermen
tstion. Hyper-acidity irritates the
delicate lining of the stomach and
food fermentation causes wind which
distends the stomach ahnormally,
causing that full bloated feeling. Thus
both acid and fermentation interfere
with and retard the process OF diges-
ton. The stomach is usually healthy
and normal, but irritated almost past
endurance by these foreign elements
acid and wind In all such cases
and they comprise over 80 per cent
az All stomach difficult;es-the first
and only step necessary is to neutra-
lie the acid and stop the fermenta-
ton by taking in q little warm or
cold water Immediately after eating,
from one to two teaspoonfuls OF bisu-
rated magnesia, which Is doubtless
the best and only really effective ant
acid and food corrective known. The
acid win be neutralized and the fer
menfation stopped almost instantly.
and your stomach will at once pro-
coed to digest the food IN a healthy,
normal manner. Be sure to ask your
druggist for the bisurated magnesia,
as I have found other forms utterly
lacking in its peculiarly valuable
properties.--F. J. G. For sale by Ben

CONFEDERATE HEROES
ANSWER LAST CALL

cere belief, they offered themselves
on the altar of patriotism.
Some were in uniform, some were
not, and this too was as it had been
in the long-ago; some we're gray
bearded, some were bent, some were
hale, some were rheumatic and some
were toothless; but all were happy
as light-heated as the two artillery
companies which left from the same
place only last week, bound on a
more serious hike to the Mexican
border. In the one case it was the
enthusiasm of work to do; in the
other it was the happiness of work
we'll done.
"Hello, JIM; ''Dan, old boy; "Bill
you're looking fine" were the greet
ings as the old heroes met each other
on the train platform, clasping tight
each others hands, and looking into
each others eyes, thinking of Apo
mattox and Bull Run and Gettysburg;
and of one other day when the word
went forth to lay down their arms
and go back home to build again the
shattered south.
For possibly the last time in his
tory the gray hosts are gathering to
give the Rebel Yell. Over fifty years
have passed since they marched forth
in the virgin Of young manhood, and
their physical strength is not equal
to their spirit. These long journeys
are hard and dangerous for some, and
it win be decided at the reunion
whether only local gatherings will be
held.
The official Buchanan special, which
originated in Jacksonville, reached
Pensacola yesterday morning, making
a considerable stop here. It reached
Birmingham last night, where the re-

Judge Sheppard Renders De-
cision in Cgse Of Al
legged Filibusterer.
CASE WILL NOW BE
CALLED TO TRIAL,
Court Rules on Exceptions
to Indictments as Filed
by Attorneys.

Judge W. B. Sheppard in the Uni
ted States court, yesterday oveuuled
the exceptions to the indictment re-
Gently returned by the federal grand
jury charging the American schooner
Lucy H., with violating the neutrality
of the United States by landing arms
and ammunition in another country
for the purpose Of giving aid to
revolution. The vessel had been selzed
by the United States and |. J. Diaz,
alleged owner of the vessel, and Capt.
H. B. Smell, arrested. They will now
be brought to trial.
The decision Is the first Of its char
acter on record, because of the fact
that there was no recognized govern
ment in Mexico, and the cargo of
arms and ammunition was for one of
the several bands of brigands fight
ing for possession Of the government
of that country.
Attorneys of the vessel had excep-
ted on the ground that to violate the
statute the vessel must be fitted out
with intent to be employed in the
service of any foreign prince or state
or of any colony, district or people,
to cruise and commit hostilities
against the subjects, citizens or prop
erty Of any foreign prince or state,
or Of any colony, district or people,
with whom the United States are at
peace" and who are at the same time
enjoying Independent political recog-
milton.
1t was thus contended that the yes
sci was thus employed in the service
OF bandits, who were opposing ban
dts and therefore not within the
prohibitive classes as described by the
neutrality act.
After reviewing previous decision
relating to neutrality violations Judge
Sheppard said in his decision: THE
supreme court in the case Of the Three
Friends, 1876 U. S. Sd, had under re-
view sharply the point whether the
act Of fitting out an expedition "to
be employed in the service Of any
foreign prince or state, or of any col
onv, district or people, was meant as

Interference With Neutral
Commerce Will Be Pro-
tested Strongly.
BRITAIN'S LAST REPLY
UNSATISFACTORY
Lansing Makes Plain That
There Is No Ger
man Influence.
BY ASSOCIATED PRESS.

Washington, May 15.-Negotiations
with Great Britain regarding the in
reference with the mails and inter
ruptions of neutral trade, will be re-
sumed shortly. A note insisting
sharply upon a modification of the
treatment of mails is already being
prepared. The reply to the latest
British note on neutral trade inter
ruptions will be begun in the near
future. Great Britain's reply is con-
sidered unsatisfactory to President
Wilson. The United States new de-
mand, It is said, will be more decided
In its language than the first. Ger
many's latest submarine note, by in
sisting that the United States take
steps to force the modification of the
allies blockade, has made it difficult
for the United States to take up neu-
trail trade question with England at
once. 1t is intimated by Secretary
Lansing last week that hurried action
on the part of the United States
would look as though this country
was acting at the behest of the Ger
man government.

CHEAP MONEY
CREDIT
PASSES
az Assoc1ATEp PRESS.

Washington, May 15.-The rural
credits bill, providing for farm loan
board and a system of twelve land
banks, passed the house today by q
vote of two hundred and ninety-five
to ten. A similar measure had all
ready passed the senate and differ
ences viii probably be worked out in
conference to be held soon.
Under the terms Of the bill, the
land banks would loan money to far
mers at not more than six per cent
interest thlNugh the local loan asso-
Citations on mortgages running from
five to thirty-six years. Mortgage
would be used by the banks as basis
for farm loan bonds. One principal
difference between the two measures
is, the senate would capitalize each
farm loan bank at five hundred thou
sand and the house at seven hundred
and fifty thousand.

vestigation into the alleged birth of
the child at Ottawa, Can.
This brought "Jessie Bryan" into
the limelight and the girl was
brought to Chicago from Ottawa by
two nuns. The nuns came prepared
to swear that "Jessie Bryan" gave
birth to baby in their hospital and
to testify that they believed he Mat
ters baby was in reality the child of
"Jessie Bryan"
The man said to be the father of
"Jessie Bryan's" baby died fighting
in the trenches in Flanders.
If the jury decides the baby be-
longs to the Canadian girl, Mrs. Mat
tiers may be punished for conspiracy in
attempting to gain share of her hus-
bands fortune by fraud.
Mrs. Matters defense will rest en-
tirely upon records of the Canadian
authorities that the child born to
"Jesise Bryan" was a boys the baby
in dispute is a girl. "Jessie Bryan's'
baby died, according to Mrs. Matters
evidence.

A point Mr.. Malone emphasized
was that while our farmers and cat

remember that these expensive struc-

Mr.. Malone said that bankers in
