How to Prevent
Acid Stomach and
Food Fermentation
BY A NEW YORK PBysrc,.~

MY experience IN the treatment or
stomach diseases has forced me 10 tSe
Tconcluston that most people who com
lplain OF stomach trouble possess stom-
. achs that are absolutely healthy and
normal. The real trouble, thai which
causes all the pain and difficulty. is sx-
cessiye acid in the stomach, aggra-
waited by food fermentation, HyDer-
acidity -irritates the delicate lining Of
the stomach abnormally, causing that
full bloated feeling. Thus, both acid
and fermentation Interfere with and
retard the process of digestion. The
stomach Is usually healthy and normal
but irrttated almost past endurance bv
these foreign elements-acid and wind
In all cases-and they comprise a
great majority of all stomach difficuI-
ttes-the first and only step necessary
, Is to neutraliZe the acid and stop the
: fermentation by taking in a little
warm or cold water Immediately after
eating, from one TO two teaspoonfuls OF
blsurated magnesia, which Is the most
effective antacid and food correctiye T
have ever found. The excess acid will
se neutraliZed and the fermentation
stopped almost instantly and your
stomach Will at once proceed to digest
the food In healthy, normal manner,
; Be sure to ask your druggist for bisu-
rated magnesia, which Is the form of
magnesia especially recommended for
acid stomach conditions."-Ady.

GUARD relief
NEEDS $1,000
This Sum Is Necessary Each
Month to Care for Depend
ent Families of fMilitiamen.

That s, 500 each month must be raised
for relief work among the guardsmen's
families, and that an organized cam
paign must be launched to collect this
amount, were the principal conclusions
reached at the second meeting of the
central committee of the Citizens We'll
fare Association, held in the headQuar-
ters in the Munsey Building, yesterday.
This amount" said John Dolph, pres
fdent Of the association, "as near as we
can determine, will enable US to take
care of the dependent families in a very
modest way. We have enough money on
hand to keep US going for a while, but
the question of funds in the future will
be the important one. The association Is
now well organized and cases can be
handled with little loss OF time
Several offisers OF the organization
have been out OF the city, and the finan-
cial end of the work has been receiving
very little attention. William J. Eynon.
chairman of the finance committee, will
call a meeting OF that committee in a
few days at which time plans will be
discussed for raising the necessary
funds to insure the continuance of the
relief work in an efficient way.
I'VE should have little trouble in col
lecting the necessary amount each
month";" Mr.. Dolph stated. I'VE are not
asking people to contribute to the sup
port of an expensive organization. Every
one connected with our movement, with
the exception of the secretary and one
stenographer. are donating their serv-
ices. The rent and furniture are also
contributed, so practically every dollar
We receive goes to the support OF some
needy family"
Mr.. Dolph also mentioned that many
of the applicants only asked that en-
ployment be found for them. Several
cases of this kind are on file at the head
quarters and those needing help, and par
ticularly female help. are asked to tele-
phone Mrs Alice I. Stuart executive sec
retary IN charge of the headquarters.
At yesterdays meeting reports were
heard from all subcommittee, and the
relief problem discussed from all angles
Regular meetings OF the central commit
tee will be held every Thursday.

plauded US heartily.
Right in the middle of our act,

times, | was quite overcome with

Dumbly l stared up at Mr.. Barry

usual poise, smiling down at me and
waiting for me to say something.
Forgot your lines" came a chal-
lenging whisper under his breath.
There was something in his arro-
giant taunt which made me determine
OF me, and this is where my moving
picture training stood me in good
stead. simply did not make any
further attempt at lines, but carried
the scene in comedy pantomime.
"Humph! I'm on to you, Mary"
he whispered, with his back to the
audience. you rehearsed this whole
business just to put one over on
me-"
Bravely did I keep a sober face
and finished the act just as l would
have done if the camera and not the
eyes Of the audience had been turn
ed upon me and, luck being with
me. l got away with it!
Miss Barrymore showered her
amused congratulations on ME after
the performance, but not my lead
ing man, Mr.. Jack, who doesn't be-
lieve to this day that l did not at
tempt to put one over on him.
And just because he always spins
The Washington herald., 1916-07-27

this yarn on me, l am going to tell
a better one on him, about the time
when the little Japanese baby who
played in Madame Butterfly" was
SO good-natured it refused to cry
IN the scenes when crying was i'm
perative. In spite of the fact there
are some people who believe that we
stick pins into children and other
wise mlstreat them when we want
to make the tears come, mothers
whose children have worked in the
studios never worry about unkindly
treatment, as we are always very
indulgent; but here was a little Jap
anese baby who refused to cry,
even though we wished it upon
himl
His mother ran away and hid
from him. the great big lights wink
ed dazzling eyes at him, the camera
ground ominously, strange, sober
faces, surrounded him, but still he
gurgled and crowed. We waited
and waited and waited, but the
smile never left the dimpled little
cheeks Of the Japanese baby.
Finally the director suggested we
had better send for some comedian,
as he didn't know anything that
would move the unappreciative to
tears quite as effectively as comedy.
In desperation l hurried to Mr..
barrymore's dressing room and
asked if he would step out upon the
stage and do his best to make the
baby
"Laugh?" he interrupted, pleased
at what he considered a compliment.
No" | reDlied briefly "crvTi
Meekly he followed me out to
the. set and then began a series of
antics which would have done credit
to a court jester, but the funnier he
was, the more sober the baby, until
hnally the long desired cloudburst st
descended. That baby cried so
trantically and so furiously that
even its patient mother became quite
alarmed and took it away to a de-
serted corner for consolation.
One wouldn't believe that the
same Jack Barrymore who made US
laugh so heartily in "The Fortune
Hunter" could ever reach such dra-
matte heights as he does in the
present production in which he is
appearing, Justice"
And here is another interesting
fact about Mr.. Barrymore: He and
his brother Lionel studied abroad to
become artists, before they made
their successes on the stage.
Some of the pictures Mr.. Barry
more has appeared in are "The Red
Widow" Man From Mexico" "Are
You a Mason?" Nearly a King. "
THE Incorrigible Dukane" and "The
Stolen Bridegroom"

for Puss to drop in a penny.
Are they?" inquired Puss with a
grin; he put his hand into his pocket
and took out a sixpence. Here, my
good man." he said, take this little
piece of money. 1t is more than l

The teeth serve varied purposes.
The four front teeth. or incisors, are
chisel-shaped in order that they may
cut or bite. This shape is also helpful
in enunciation. The "eye" teeth, be.
hind the incisors, are better fitted for
heavier cutting or biting than the
front ones. They are a transition
