acid STOMACHS
ARE DANGEROUS

ACID" stomachs are dangerous because
acid irritates and inhames the delicate
lining OF the stomach, thus hinderiDg
and preventing the proper action of the
stomach. and leading to probably
nine fenths OF the cases of stomach
trouble from which people suffer.
Ordinary medicines that act merely
upon the stomach itself 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 accumulation pre-
vented. and the best thing for this pur-
nesia, simple antacid, taken in a little
warm or cold water after eating. which
not only neutralizes the acid, but also
prevents the fermentation. Foods which
ordinarily cause distress may be eaten
with impunity IL the meal Is followed
with a little Bisurated Magnesia, which
should always be kept handy.

He says the figures for the month OF
October give some idea OF the magnitude
Of the commissions provision business.
The following amounts of food were de-
hvered during the month: Wheat, 81, 900
tons; lard, 1850 tons; bacon, 2.230 tons;
rice, 1000 tons; maize, 1850 tons; sun
dries, 1,20o tons.
Benefited by Privation.
An interesting and unlooked-for result
Of the war is also suggested by Dr.
Fletcher. He assures Us that the depri-
vations suffered by the Belgians have
to a great measure stamped out the or
binary diseases of GENERALIZATION and
that now the birth rate is advancing. II
to the Belgians could be given enough
cloth to keep them warm they would
pull through and in a reasonable time
after the war be happy, self-supporting
people. The coming generation would
perhaps be a superior one TO the genera
ton now going out.
Many scientists have claimed that pri-
yation is not an unmixed evil-that its
ultimate result is to purify a nation and
put it In better condition, physically and
morally. 1t Is exactly the same reason

You can get it in the Britannica just as many other
people have done. For instance, a North Carolina
cotton broker said that the article on Cotton was worth
the price Of the whole set. A New York lawyer got
just the information he needed in lawsuit about iron

Inc man VINO made LnlS cuQ Iau pop
ulsr was DR.. Horace Fletcher. He's
food economist That's a definition. I'm
not calling him names. He is also
member Of the Commission for Relief in
Belgium. He has recently returned from
his duties in Brussels to assist the COM
mission in its work here to raise money
to buy clothes and shoes for the desti-
tute in Belgium and northern France
Better on Than Normal.
According to DR.. Fletcher, during the
tst year OF its existence the commits
sion delivered into Belgium and northern
France enough food to keep nine million
people alive at an approximate cost
Of 5000 coo. This money provided almost
LOoceO0 tons of provisions, with the re-
suit that the population Of Belgium is
today in better than its normal health
after one year under the commissions
Tations
Not a single person has died Of
starvation in Belgium or Northern
France" said Dr. Fletcher yesterday,
when We were discussing the conditions
there. There is ample Justification for
the recent statement OF President Wilson
that the lives Of millions of people have
been saved
All Out of Everything.
Every day. however" DIR. Fletcher
continued, the resources OF Belgium and
Northern France become more and more
depleted. Sixteen months Of blockade
have exhausted mcst Of the raw ma
tcrial; hence the growing of the bread
lines Not only have 4,500.Ooo Belgian
workers no means with which to buy
bread, but their factories have run out

Every bleak winter day, with an increase

portionate increase Of the destitute in

Fletcher's exact language. That Is why
! cannot help smile when he talks about
the increase Of the destitute need"
Cwhatever that means) in the same
breath with his statement that the popu-
latiOn Of Belgium is today in better than
its normal health.
DR.. Fletcher cites some remarkable
prices charged by the commission and
the district committees.
The fixed price Of white bread" he
says, SIS only 336 cents a pound-less
than 51-2 cents. Bread in Brussels today
is cheaper than in New York or Lon
don"
Think OF that!
Bread is cheaper in Brussels than In
New York OF London,
4 MS IS no lule statement. OUT from the
food expert OF the commission for relief
in Belgium. No less than DIR. Horace
Fletcher, the worid-famed food econO
mist.
No wonder he has come back to this
country to raise money for clothes and
shoes. They don't need It for food. They
have been ''fed up" as the English say.
Bread Is cheaper in Belgium than I'm
England or the United States! And we
have sent nearly a hundred million dol
lars worth Of supplies into Belgium in a
year and a hall!
II strikes me that anyone who wants
to economic had better go to Belgium
to live.
The work Of the Americans in the
distribution Of food is a source Nof won

Fletcher.
