How TO Prevent
Acid StOmachS And
Food Fermentation

You may complain of stomach
trouble and yet your stomach
may be absolutely normal and
healthy. The real trouble = the
trouble that nearly everybody
has at times-is probably excess
sive acid in the stomach. You
may be quite sure that this is
your trouble IL your food fer
ments, turns sour, causes belch-
ing, distress after eating, etc. Ex-
cessive acid irritates the delicate
lining Of the stomach abnormal
ly, causing that full bloated feel
ing. Thus both acid and fermen-
tation interfere with and retard
the process Of digestion. The
stomach wall is usually healthy
and normal, but irritated almost
past endurance by these foreign
elements-acid and wind. In all
such cases-and they comprise a
great majority of all stomach
difficulties--the first and only
step necessary is to neutralize the
acid and stop fermentation by
taking in a little warm or cold
water Immediately after eating,
from one to two teaspoonfuls Of
Bisurated Magnesia which is a
remarkably effective antacid and
food corrective. The excess acid
will be neutralized and the food
fermentation stopped immediate
ly so that your stomach may then
proceed to digest the food in a
healthy normal manner. Be sure
to ask your druggist for Bisur.
ated Magnesia rather than Mag
nesia in any other form.

WHAT We
NEED IS
DOCKAGE

Tacoma practically doubled her
export business in December over
that of the previous month, yet
her returns suffered considerably
because of the lack of facilities
for handling the business, accord
ing to a report today from the
customs collectors.
Every spare inch of dockage
was filled to the limit. 1t became
necessary for the o. s. X. line to
move to Seattle to load. This re-
moved a large amount of collec-
tions from this port and account
ed for the decrease in December.
Only $17,041.69 was taken in
during the month of December as
compared to $21,994 for the same
month the previous year.
Seattle lost.
Tacoma's exports totaled $4,-
DOL, $50, as compared to 32,S44,-
$50 for November. Seattle show
ed loss of nearly million dol
lars in exports during the same
period and a decrease of about
$27, 900 in collections. r
Local officials believe that Ia
coma faces good year providing
suitable arrangements can be
made for handling the freight.
The returns for the first six
months of the 1915 fiscal year at
the local office show total collec-
tion of more than $1S3,00O,
against $4,000 for the corre-
spending period of the last gov
eminent year.

men sent bullets crashing

During the two hours that the

least that's what Judge Richard
Ballinger, one of the nabobs,
says.
The King county sheriff had
obtained search warrant au-
thorizing the officers to search
every room of the 4th avenue club
house. They did it.
Locked in Trunk.
A good deal of the booze was
found-not in the old bar room
but in a trunk hidden in a locked
linen closet on the fourth floor.
The bad boys!
According to latest reports.
Judge F.. V. Brown, president of
the club, arrived on the scene
while the raid was in progress
and assisted the officers in the
search"
In one room was found four
demijohns of whisky, a case of
champagne, dozen bottles of gin
and a case of beer.
No FavOritism.
"There will be no favoritism
in enforcing the dry law" said
Prosecutor Lundin today. Fash
ionable clubs that violate the law
will be given only the same con-
sideration given to any other
place where liquor is kept illegal
ly.
"Officers or members of the
club will be prosecuted IL they
have violated the law"
While they were about it the
officers raided the New Cecil no.
tel on Spring street near First
avenue and the ID. & w. buffet
near First and Union. John Saw
age, manager of the New Cecil.
and Ralph Jones of the ID. & W.,
were arrested. About $500 bot

Without receiving an order,
this soldier shot him. Few sleep

Two special trains arrived to-

that Villa has reiterated his
threat against Americans, urging
his followers to slay the gringoes

He said Villa is hiding in the
mountains around Durango.
