Vi dClQ stomach. TOT
s-al>1 1HH,-117l acid stomach is the cause
Of fermentation, which,
bad enough in itself, is the forerunner Of
hundred ills that sap the energy and
vitality of it's victims. | venture to say
that 90 per cent of all sickness starts
with acid stomach.
Nature provides hydrochloric acid as
one Of the digestive fluids, but too much
of this acid causes fermentation, hurries
the food out of the stomach and carries
the acid all through the body. As
consequence. poisons (toxins) are formed
which are absorbed into the blood, caus-
ing autointoxication. nervousness, mental
depression and countless ills of which this
is but the beginning.
Every one of the vital organs in time
becomes afected-the heart, the liver, the
kidneys, the intestines, the nerves and the
brain all decline, for the stomach is the
Power Plant of the body. Even the teeth
are affected by acid stomach, for the gums
recede, and Pyorrhoea will be the result
Stomach remedies only neutralze the acid be-
cause they are stronger than the acid. This ult-
mately ruins the lining Of the stomach. The acid
being neutralized is absorbed into the blood only
to come back to the stomach in greater quantities
at the next meal
How much more sensible would it be to attack
this disorder at its source. Instead Of attempting
to neutraze acid after it has formed why not pre-.
vent it from forming in the FIRST place?

remedy must be found in the field Of the cause-in
eating correctly
The individual sufferer from indigestion. acidity.
fermentation, gas and such disorders has not carried
his experiments with food very far If he had he
could easily cure himself. as Eugene Christian, the
famous food scientist has proved beyond all doubt.
The reason which led Eugene Christian to take
up the study Of food in the first place was because
he himself, as young man. was great sufferer
from stomach and intestinal trouble
So acute was his affection that the best specialists
Of the day, after everything within their power had
failed, gave him up to die. Educated for doctor
himself Christian could get no help from his brother
physicians.
Believing that wrong eating was the cause and
that right eating was the only cure he took up the
study Of foods and their relation to the human
system. What he learned not only restored his own
health in remarkably short space Of time but has
been the means Of relieving some Is 900 other men
and women for whom he has prescribed with almost
invarable success, even thoug most Of them went
to him as a last resort.
Christian says that all stomach and intestinal
disorders-with their countless sympathetic ills
are caused by wrong selections and wrong combina-
tions Of food, and that right combinations Of food
will positively remove every stomach and intestinal
disorder by removing its causes

1t developed then that there was
score to be settled. McRae had been
losing, he found-not considerable sum,
but more than he had with him. Not
daring to question his companions
statement, he wrote check and went
home.
The memory of that lost day was never
recovered If any of his acquaintance
saw him during those twelve hours of
forgetfulness, Roderick McRae heard
nothing oft. Illness served as an explana-
ton both to his wife and to his employers.
He knew he had had an attack of mem
tai alteration, and was both disturbed
by the fact and ashamed of it, but
why distress his wife with the mat
ter? The thing would probably never
happen again.
The thing did happen again-and many
times. Yet he never told any one If he did
he would be followed about and watched;
his wife would be afraid of him. He might
even be locked up as irresponsible. And
the matter was not so very serious. He
lost more money gambling than he could
afford: that was all.
Unfortunately, it was not all, however
AS was bound to happen, he was some
times seen at these "otf' times by old
acquaintances. Some of them hardly rec
ognized him, so changed was he in manner
and speech; and he never recognized
them. 1t was rumored that he was drink
ing, gambling, and in short, going to the
dogs. a hint of this from his employers
caused him to resign his position, for fear
of being discharged Still he took no one
into his confidence. Better, he felt, to be
thought dissolute than demented.
lis meeting with Welles-Hewtt oc-
cured early in the career Of the new
personality, and led to his introduction at
the house of Luis Yznaga, a small, surrep-
titious gambling resort. From that time
on it was there that Roderick McRae
habitually went whenever his normal self
was in allegiance. Mrs. Yznaga was a
lively woman of handsome Spanish type,
and McRae found her agreeable to his
changed taste. But that he ever took an
undue interest in her he expressly denied
in the tragic document from which most
of the facts of his sons narrati We're
obtained.
OF the killing of Yznaga, Rodericl
McRae remembered nothing whatever.
He knew only that he had suddenly
found himself looking down at the Span
iards body on the floor at his feet On
one side of him was Mrs. Yznaga, on the
other Weles-Hewitt, holding his arms to
restrain him; and in his right hand he
saw heavy walking-stick that he often
carried.
"My Cod" he had exclaimed. What
have | done?'
At his trial he could deny nothing that
was testified against him by Welles-
Hewitt and Mrs. Yznaga. 1t was true,
perhaps. that he had quarreled with
Gznaga because of the latter's refusal to
let him redeem the claim to the Rosalba
mine, which he had signed over in pay
ment of gambling losses. He knew that
he had signed over the mine, even had
Mrs Yznaga not had a paper with his
signature as proof He had given Yznaga
the paper at his last visit six weeks before,
and on discovering the fact the next day
had been extremely worried by it. For
it had been his intention to start soon for

BISHOP WILSON HOME;
PRAISES Y. M. G.. A. IN WAR
Glowing Tribute From Churchman
Who Saw Association Work
on Battle Front

Back from France and Italy after hav-
ing been bruised by tiny fragment Of an
Austrian shell, Bishop Luther b. Wilson
today paid glowing tribute to the work
which the Young Mems Christian Associa-
ton is doing on the battle front.
Bishop Wilson, who was formerly resident
bishop of the Methodist Episcopal Church
in this city, is now chairman of the CO.
operating committee Of the War Work Coun-
Gil of the Y. NJ. c. A, with headquarters In
New York He Is now visiting In Philadel
phia having just returned from n tour of
the French and Italian fronts with his COM
mttee, which included Francis B. Sayre,
President Wilson's son-in-law. The COM
mttee organized the Associations war work
on those fronts
While he was visiting the Isonzo line, not
far from the front trenches, an Austrian
shell exploded some distance from Bishop
Wilson and small fragment struck him
on the arm, but not with sufficient force
to wound him.
mo one who has not been near the firing
line can appreciate how the Young Mems
Christian Association Is serving the army.

sentenced today by Judge Dickinson in the
Federal court, to nine months each in the
Bucks County jail at Doylestown. after con-
viction of conspiracy to conceal nearly
100000 of assets from their creditors.
The sentence followed a somewhat
spirited effort on the part of counsel for
the convicted men to bargain with the court
as to the length of the sentence and the
prison to which they should be sent. Judge
Dickinson at first announced that he would
send the men TO the Atlanta penitentiary
for year and day, but their attorney
stated that they would rather take a chance
on fiat six months sentence in county
jail. because the parole privilege In the
Federal penitentiary which would be avail.
able to them after four months, would In
practice be worthless. as the application
of the men would be "blue- -penciled" by the
department Of justice.
After considerable argument on the sub.
tect and after consultation with his col.
league. Judge Thompson Judge Dickinson
decided upon the nine months sentence in
the Bucks County Jail.

SEGER CONDEMNS
POLICE POLITICS.
Tells Finance Committee
Promotions Should Be
on Merit
DIRECTOR WILSON'S REPLY
Explains That Lieutenants Do
Not Take Civil Service
Tests

If there we're less politics in the pro-
motion of men In the Fire and Police De-
partments Philadelphia would get better
service. according to Select Councilman
Charles Seger. Of the Seventh ward. He
made this contention this afternoon before
the Finance Committee during a discussion
caused by a request for an increased ap-
preparation by Director Wilson.
The director asked for 773 additional
hosemen and laddermen who, he said.
would be required when the new double
platoon system goes into effect on January
l. This would increase the payroll for
hosemen and laddermen from $780, 900 to
Sl,542,000, Mr.. Wilson pointed out that
engine companies now had only eight hose
men, whereas sixteen would be required un-
der the new system.
Mr. Seger reminded the committee that
he was an old fireman and contended that
twelve men would be sufficient to meet
the needs of the proposed double-shift plan
II was at this point that he made oppor-
tunity to voice his opinion concerning poll
tics and promotions and said. among other
things, that when captain of police re-
signs, lieutenant should be automatically
moved up.
Director Wilson said he agreed with Mr.
Seger that promotions should be made on
merit, but he asserted there would be much
trouble in such a plan, as leutenants did
not take the civil service tests for cap
tainces.
The Finance Committee decided to allow
the department 450 additional hosemen and
laddermen, which will bring the payroll
for all new men under this classification
to $11S0,0O0.
No mention Of tax rate will be made
at tori1orrow's session OF Councils, and the
final fixing of the rate may be postponed
until near the end of the time limit fixed
by law. In the meantime the more than
S49,000.000 of demands will be cut to a
point never before attempted The first
mortgage on 1918 income will be the
Sl.200,o00 temporary loan that will be
authorized by Councils tomorrow.
Director Wilson, of the Department of
Public Safety. is asking s39,62O for his
Office for 1918, while his demands for the
Bureaus of Fire and Police are well over
s2,000.000 more than granted for 1917. The
| relative figures are: Po,ic. 1917. s4,543,-

HE'S ALIVE, NOT DEAD

Brings Undertaken and Also

This Is how Dr Charles Il Fulmer. of
1911 West Allegheny avenue. was obliged

Gets out Of bed and hears mans voice say
ing: Doctor. my wife is sick with pto-
maine poisoning Can you come here at
once?" Doctor F'ulmer asked where the
voice lived. AT 3416 North Sixteenth
street, was the reply Knowing that he
had no patient at that address, Doctor Full
mer suggested that the man call his regu-
lar physician. 1--WE done that, but he's
out / got your name from the telephone
operator as being the nearest physician"
Doctor Fumer prescribed an emetic. Give
your wife two quarts Of soapsuds" he
said. That will relieve her until you can
get your regular physician" He ewnt back
to bed.
1853 a. m.-Three minutes later the doc
tors telephone rang again. i've tried
that DOCTOR came the voice, "and it's no
use" Doctor Fulmer realized that by no
possibility had the man had time to pre-
pare the emetic, and he was convinced that
some one was trying to put over some skull
duggery on him. He hung up the receiver
and went back to bed.
2:43 a. m.-Ring at the doctors front

of the upstairs window A man stood at
the front door and an undertaker's wagon
was drawn up at the curb. Anybody dead
