TALK WOMEN ONLY
BY MRS. SHARPLESS
IS HEARD BY MANY

The meeting for women only, held
Tuesday afternoon at the First
Methodist Church, was well attended,
the speaker, Mrs. Jennie Sharpless,
commanding the strictest attention.
Mrs. Sharpless is a forceful speaker,
and her recital of the story of COM
mercialized vice and the dangers it
engenders was a striking exposition
of the evils of the day.
This evening at 1870 o'clock, Mrs.
Sharpless will speak to the women
and girls of the city at the First
Presbyterian Church, and all mothers
and their daughters are extended an
invitation to hear her.
Mrs. Sharpless has given twenty
one years of her life to the work of
retaining fallen women, and the re-
clamation of the fostering spots of
city life, and is bending her efforts
towards correcting some of the evils
in Pensacola.

Proper Food for Weak Stomachs.

The proper food for one man may
be all wrong for another. Every one
should adopt a diet suited to his age
and occupation. Those who have
weak stomachs need to be especially
careful and should eat slowly and
masticate their food thoroughly. 1t is
also important that they keep their
bowels regular. When they become
constipated or when they feel dull
and stupid after eating. they should
take Chamberlain's Tablets to streng-
then the stomach and move the bow
els. They are easy to take and
pleasant in effect.-Adv.

SIX POLICEMEN IN
DANCER BEING HURT

Six policemen, occupying the
patrol wagon when it was returning
to the station at 8:15 O'Clock yester-
day morning, came near being hurt at
the intersection of Intendencia and
Tarragona streets when the wagon
was struck by switch engine No. 500,

The motor patrol was slightly dam
aged. 1t was only through nice
driving on the part of Officer NJ.
D'Sousa, however, that this condition
resulted. He saw and realized the

only saved the wagon, but also kept
the policemen from being injured.
The police report of it stated that
the crossing was not tagged, al
though there were no arrests.

If Food Disagrees
Drink Hot Water

When food lies like lead in your
stomach and you have that uncomfort-
able, bloated feeling and your stomach
is sour and burning it is usually be-
cause of insufficient blood supply to
the stomach combined with acid and
food fermentation.
In such case the best and safest
treatment you can possibly use is to
take a teaspoonful of pure bisurated
magnesia in half a glass OF water as
hot as you can comfortably drink II.
The hot water draws the blood to the
stomach and the bisurated. magnesia,
as physicians can tell you, is a power
full but harmless antacid which quick
ly neutralizes the excess acid. sweet
ems your stomach contents and stops
food fermentation.
This hot water ana magnesia treat
ment is a far better plan than that of
swallowing some pill or tablet which
simply artihcially digests your food
and sends it still a sour, fermentfng
acid mass into the intestines where II
will do almost as much harm as in
the stomach.
AS there are various forms of mag
nesia be sure in following above direc-
tions to ask the druggist for Bisurated
Magnesia (either in powder or tablet
form) which is especially prepared for
correction of stomach acidlty.
Try this simple plan of using Bisu-
rated Magnesia after meals to prevent
food fermentation and to- neutralize
stomach acidity. You will be aston
ished at the Immediate relief and COM
fort that always follows the restora-
tion of the normal process OF digestion.
