BILL FOR FOOD CENSUS

The House yesterday debated the first
Of the Agricultural Committees bills
framed to insure Federal control Of the
food situation for the perioS Of the war
The measure provides for the taking Of
a national census OF the food supply and
carrying an appropriation Of $50 600.
There Is little or no serious opposition
TO the bill, but the House debated until
3 o'clock, then set the measure aside so
that it will be taken up and considered as
soon as the taxation bill is out Of the
way. This means a delay Of about
week.

Drink Hot water
For Indigestion
Common Sense Advice On Care of The
Stomach.

If dyspeptics, sufferers from gas, wind
or flatulence, stomach acidity or sour
ness, gastric catarrh, heartburn, etc,
would take a teaspoonful of pure bisu-
rated magnesia in half a glass of hot
water many would soon forget that they
were ever afflicted with stomach trouble,
and doctors would have to look elsewhere
for patients.
Physicians tell that most forms of
stomach trouble are due to stomach
acidity or fermentation of the food con-
tents combined with catarrh of the stom-
ach. A cup of hot water taken with a
teaspoonful of bisurated magnesia before
meals will wash out mucus and tend to
prevent food fermentation of the stomach.
Taken an hour or two after eating they
instantly reduce the excess acidity. In
either condition, therefore, the treatment
Is eminently successful and decidedly
| preferable TO the use of artificial diges-
tents, stimulants or medicines used in
| discriminatory for Indigestion.
stomach sufferers can obtain Bisurated
| Magnesia from druggists in either powder
| or tablets and for treatment as outlined
| above the bisurated form should be in
| sisted on as it Is especially prepared Tor
correction OF stomach acidity.-Adv.
