McAdoo Asks Insurance
For American Soldiers

a statement by Secretary Nc
Aduo says:
I'm September approximately
S0O,O men will be sent to army
camps throughout the country to
train as soldiers for the greatest
war of all time. Americas chance
of winning the war-and it is the
power and resources of America
that must win this war-will be
immeasurably increased if the
war insurance bill, now pending
in the Congress, is promptly en-
acted into law. AS soon as these
men go into camp, an immediate
and pressing problem confronts
the country. Their wives and
children or mothers and fathers
who are dependent upon them for
support, will be Immediately
thrown upon the charity and gen.
erosity of the communities in
which they live. This must not
be done. America must not be
disgraced by failure to provide
for the support of the families of
the men whom she takes from
their homes and places upon the
battletields. This is the time to
hearten our men as they enter
upon this supreme service of sac
ritice for the nation. This is the
time to enhance their morale and
to sustain and comfort those who
are left behind and are required
to make sacrifices as great as
those who die upon the field OF
battle.
Il earnestly hope that the
measure now pending in the Con-
gress will be supported by such
an unmistakable expression OF
public opinion that it will be en-
acted into law before the first
soldier of the new National Army
begins active military duty"

PARALYSIS NOT
VERY SERIOUS
Commissioner Dixon Gives
the Result of Some Re-
cent Investigations

DR.. Samuel G.. Dixon, state health
commissioner, last night announced
that there were only two places in
the State where infantile paralysis
cases appear in quantity large enough
to attract any attention, New Castle
and Lancaster county. Associate Chief
Medical Inspector Hull reported that
there are twenty-one cases and two
suspects in New Castle. He has made
an examination of the field with DIR.
w. L. Steen. city health officer, and
reports that there are some very bad
housing conditions. The cases are
under quarantine of thirty days and
the local officials have closed all pub
lie places.
The departments bureau of hous-
ing has finished a survey of the hous-
ing conditions in each of the thirty
four cases that have been reported in
Lancaster county. some of which are
now out of quarantine. There is no
poliomy elttis in the city of Lancaster.
In the rural sections where the cases
occurred 1t was found the housing
conditions were excellent, although in
only two instances were the sanitary
arrangements satisfactory
Or. Dixon believes the conditions
through theState are uch that with
proper watchfulness there Is now a
hopeful outlook with regard to escap-
ing an epidemic. He has had his
chief medical inspector look into con-
ditions in states near Pennsylvania
and to-day gave out the result of DR..
Rogers inquiries. These are sum-
married as follows: New York-124

Why Nine People Out Of Ten Have
Acid Stomach and Indigestion
Acids IN Stomach that Sour and Ferment Your Food
Should be Neutralized With a Little Magnesia to
End Indigestion.

while there are many forms of
stomach trouble" says a physician
who has made a special study of
stomach disorders. Il believe that
fully 80 per cent of these cases are
traceable to the excessive secre-
tion of hydro-chloric acid in the
stomach with consequent food fer
mentation, gas and delayed diges-
ton"
The stomach needs a certain
amount of acid for proper diges-
tion, but many people have an un-
natural tendency to secrete more
acid than their stomach requires.
This excess acid makes all the
trouble.
Their stomachs are almost con-
stantly in state of sourness and
ferment, extremely irritating and
inflaming to the stomach lining
and most everything they eat dis
agrees and turns to gas. No Won
der we have so much so-called in
digestion and dyspepsia.
An 'acid stomach" should be neu-
tralized or sweetened daily with

some simple harmless anti-acid

stead of merely artificially digesting
the acid food, as do so many pep
sin pills and digestive aids, coun-
teracts or changes the acid, soothes
and heals the sore inflamed stom-

digestion without pain or trouble OF
any kind.
say bisurated magnesia because
I regard this as the best form in
which magnesia can be used for
stomach purposes. A few ounces
of the powder or a small package
of 5grain tablets can be obtained
at any drug store and will convert
almost any stomach sufferer into
forever discarding all digestive
aids and relying entirely on bisu-
rated magnesia to keep his stomach
free from dangerous gas and acids
and the pains of indigestion. BIZ
surated Magnesia is not a laxative
and may be freely taken either be-
fore or after meals.

Use
Ice Sensibly

NON'T make the mistake of trying
- to "skimp" on your ice bill.
There is no economy in letting your ice
box get empty every night.
A considerable portion of the next days
supply will be necessary to again reduce
temperatures.
Besides you run the risk of spelling food to
an amount equal to many times the cost of
the ice.
The more ice you buy the less you will use,
for the simple reason that cold refrigerator
does not consume as much ice as a warm
one.
