Raiders
sScuttIe
Stean ler

LONDON, Feb. 24.-Taking
no chance on the seizure of their
prize, the British steamer West
burn, the German crew dashed
to sea this morning from Santa
Cruz, in the Canaries.
They scuttled the ship, then es-
capped in small boats.
Before the vessel was sunk,
200 British prisoners aboard
were put safely ashore.
The British steamer Westburn
put into Santa Cruz last night
for repairs, flying the German
flag and with a prize crew of
seven men and one officer.
The officer is believed to be-
long to the German raider
Moewe.
The 200 British prisoners on
board came from the British
steamers Flamenco, Horace, Clan
McTavish and Cambridge, the
British bark Edinburgh and the
Belgian steamer Luxembourg.
Some of them were taken after
exciting battles with the raider
Moewe.
The Westburn left Liverpool
for Buenos Ayres Jan. 21.

Watcher GOinQ
TO Do With II?

In compliance with the de-
mands of large number of North
End residents that Mason library
be put into shape for branch
public library, the city council to-
day unanimously voted to turn
the building over to the library
board for library purposes.
An hour later the library board
received the councils gift, and
voted to accept 1t, with a proviso
that the city would have to put
the building in fit condition for
occupancy before 1t would form
ally take over the structure.
North End residents, therefore,
are liable to go without a
library for some time to come.
II will cost $500 to repair the
building and put 1t in shape. The
city has no money for the pur-
pose. and the library board has
already made plans to spend all
of its 1916 budget.
The old Mason library has
fallen into decay since 1t was
abandoned by Whitworth college,
says Commissioner Woods.

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 excessive acid in the
stomach. You may he quite sure
that this is your trouble II your
food ferments, turns sour, causes
belching, distress after eating,
etc. Excessive acid irritates the
delicate lining of the stomach alb
normally, causing that full bloat-
ed feeling. Thus both acid and fer
mentation interfere with and re-
tard 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 diff
ficulties-the first and only step
necessary is to neutralize the acid
and stop fermentation by taking
in a little warm or cold water i'm
mediately after eating, from one
to two teaspoonfuls OF Bisurated
Magnesia which Is a remarkably
effective antacid and food correct
i've. The excess acid will be neu-
tralized and the food fermentation
stopped Immediately so that your
stomach may then proceed to d.
gest the food in a healthy normal
manner. Be sure to ask your
druggist for Bisurated Magnesia
rather than Magnesia In any 9TH
or form.

MAKES SKIN SMOOTH

There is one safe, dependable
treatment that relieves itching
torture instantly and that cleanses
and soothes the skin.
Ask any druggist for Csc bot
tie of zemo and apply 1t as di-
rected. Soon you will find that
pimples, black heads, eczema.
ringworm and similar skin trou-
bles will disappear.
A little zemo. the penetrating,
satisfying liquid, is all that is
needed. for it banishes all skin
eruptions and makes the skin
soft, smooth and healthy.

THE MISSISSIPPI PRINTING
BILL.

A meritorious measure, and
one that should become a law,
10 the bill introduced by Senator
L. C. Franklin, of Coahoma
county, providing that the pub
lie printing of Mississippi be
done in Mississippi by Mississip-
ri printing concerns under COM
petitive bids. The provisions of
the bill are fair and reasonable
and in thorough harmony with
the made in Mississippi" slo-
gan. All of the printing of the
state can be done in the state;
the printing establishments, tax
payers, help support the state
government and should be given
some consideration on the Buy
at Home" proposition. A num-
Der of states have laws requiring
the public printing to be done
within the limits Of the state
and the result has been entirely
satisfactory, as larger printing
establishments with larger tax
contributions to the state have
been built up, while prices q
printing have been held down By
the competition between the
state concerns.
The printing bill is a measure
Of merit. and We hope to see it
become law.
