"Clean Up Week" is being observed
in Denison this week, and housewives,
school children and business men, in
compliance with the national proclama.
ton and in compliance with the
civic committee of the Commercial
club are bending every effort to make
Denson truly City Beautiful" All
over the city may be seen the work of
the garden rake and paint brush and
everyone is doing everything possible
to make Denison look spick and span.
"Clean up" seems to be in the air and
many people are trimming their lawns,
painting their houses and sheds and
gathering all OF the rubbish off of the
premises. The school children are in.
terested in the movement and are COM
peting with one another to see that
not single can or broken bottle is
overlooked and all are being taken to
the dump. Rubbish and all odd bits
of wood and lumber are being picked
up for fuel for the kitchen stove.
Among the women folks house clean.
ing seems to be in vogue Rugs are
out being cleaned, interiors are being
redecorated and everything put in
readiness for the coming summer
months.
The city officials are interested in
the movement and are assisting in ev.
cry way possible to make the general
clean up effective. The city electri.
clans are busy trimming branches along
their light wires so that the danger of
damaged wires during storms will be
lessened. Where property owners are
backward in regard to cleaning UP
their premises they are politely noti-
fled that they are expected to join the
clean up movement.
Three more days are left in "Clean
Up week and wonders may be ac-
complished in that time if everyone
gets behind the movement. Denison
is the best town in the state and we
are all proud of it. but let's get busy
and make it even better by making it
spotless. There is yet much to lie
done and If it can't be accomplished
this week it can be next. There is no
reason why Denison could not observe
clean up week for fifty-two weeks in
the year.

special meeting of the Commercial

regard to the matter Many are OF
the opinion that the hitching posts
should be removed from the business
center of the city and placed around
the court house square, where there is
ample room for wagons and teams to
be htched. Both Main street and
Broadway are far too narrow to permit
the hitching of teams on both sides
of the street and leave ample room for
traffic between. In other towns an

churches and Easter lilies, palms and

went far toward adding to the general
attractiveness of the churches.
AS always at Easter, appropriate
music was an important part of nearly
every service, the joyous hymns and
anthems marking the close of the
Lenten season and the rejoicing in a
risen Lord. At some of the churches
communion was celebrated, members
received and the ordinance of baptism
administered. The places of worship
were crowded at the morning services,
the ladies bedecked and gowned in the
most alluring costumes and the hus-
bands, brothers and sweethearts out

HOW TO PREVENT
ACID ST0MACHS AND
FOOD FERMENTATION
ey : stomaeh speciaIist

0Y SCom6GV 0pSGtdtt8S
AS q specialist who has spent many
years in the study and treatment Of
stomach troubles, have been forced
to 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 abnormally,
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
of all stomach difficult.es-the first
and only step necessary Is to neutra
lie the acid and stop the fermenta
ton by taking In a little warm OF
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 will be neutralized and the fer
lnentation stopped almost instantly
and your stomach will at once pro
coed to digest the food in healthy
normal manner. Be sure to ask your
druggist for the bisurated magnesia
as / have found other forms utterly
lacking In its peculiarly valuable
properties.-F. J. G. For sale by Ben
