Acid StOmachS Are
Dangerous

Nine Tenths Of All Stomach Trouble Due
70 Acidity Says New York
Physician.
A weli.knoun New York physician who
has made a special study of stomach and in
testinal diseases recently made the startling
as well as many diseases OF the vital organs,
are directly traceable 10 excessive stomach
acidity commonly termed sour stomach or
heartburn which not only irritates and in
flames the delicate lining Of the stomach but
may often cause gastritis and dangerous
stomach ulcers
Neglect he says easily leads o chronic
super.acidity, commonly mistaken for indi-
gestion and is the principal cause for the
indiscriminate swallowing Of the various so
called patent digestive aids which bring only
temporary and false relief.
In an acid condition Of the stomach no
artificial digestents whatever should be en-
ployed as these are likely to merely pass the
sour. burning acid on into the intestines
causing serious trouble there. Instead he
recommends the use Of some simple, harmless
and inexpensive aptacid such as a teaspoon
fu Of bisurated magnesia, taken with q little
hot or cold water right after meals or when
ever distress is fslt.
This simple remedy in just few seconds
from its entering the stomach neutralizes or
sweetens all its sour acid contents. Dis
solve the dangerous acidity and there will
be no need for medicine As all symptoms Of
indigestion will promptly cease. Sufferers
from acidity sour stomach or indigestion
should get q few ounces Of the pure bisu
rated msgnesia from their druggist and give
this treatment a trial In view. however Of
the many varieties Of msgnesis used for va.
rious purposes. stomach sufferers should be
careful 10 get II only in the bisurated form
(either powder or tsblets) and In a sealed
package to insure its purity.

Delaware Prepares
FOR COLLEGE YEAR
Faculty Holds First Meeting
and Decides TO Begin
Classes at SIS O'clock
MANY NEW MEMBERS
OF TEACHING STAFF

Special to THE EVENING JOURNAL
NEWARK, Sept 19.-Details for the
new Delaware College year. whiCN
opens on Thursday, we're discussed at
the first meeting of the college fac
ulty yesterday, which was presided
over by Or. Samuel c. Mitchell. Prac-
tically every member Of the teaching
staff including the new members OF
the faculty, we're present at tho meet
ing. Many minor details in connec-
tiOn with the college management were
discussed and at least one importan.
change was made. This was de-
cision Of the faculty to start the first
period at SIS o'clock in the morning
instead Of S45 o'clock. as last year
Because Of the fact that many stu
dents generally arrive az almost The
last minute with their certificates
from a recognized high school. with
out having notified the faculty Of their
intention to enter Delaware makes
the size OF the entering class uncer-
tain. There Is an indication. how
ever, that it will he another large
class and that It will be especially well
prepared.
Most Of the members Of the faculty
have spent their vacations at their
somes in different sN'tions OF the
country and they have returned pre-
pared and anxious to take up their
important work for another year.
Examinations OF applicants for en-
trance are being held today and will
be continued tomorrow. Much Of
Thurfday. the frst day Of college. will
be devoted 10 the organization of
classes. etc. and the regular recita
tions will he started on Friday.
One difficult proposition that con-
fronts tho faculty is the finding Of
boarding houses for all those students
who will remain in Newark from
week to week. Some boarding houses
where students bad boarded for years
have been demolished to make room
for the new buildings in course of
erection. This made less boarding
houses. and the fact that many work
men engaged on the new structure
have also secured board in other
boarding houses. is making II hard to
find sufficient rooms for the boys.

had hoped to see for many years, a

and he and his wife have endeared
themselves TO the people so much that
rapid strides are being made.
Up to the present time the people
have had no church building in which
to worship, but have been holding
meetings in the upper story of a barn

day last al 2.30 o'clock the corner

taken at this service was S6S.15.

up to date and the aim is TO dedicate
the church free OF debt IN The near fu-
ture. The full amount will he a little
more than $4,000. which price is low

the work being donated. To build a
church at this point OF such a charac-
Ter is a wonderful achievement
