GAS IN THESTOMACH IS DANGEROUS
 WY VI ~
Recommends Daily Use of Masnesia To Overcome Trouble. Caused by Fer mentiney Food and Acid
 Indigestion.

Gas and wind in the stomach accom- panied by that full. bloated feeling af- ter eating are almost certain evidence of the presence of excessive hydrochlo- ric acid in the stomach. creating so- called "acid indigestion"
 Acid stomachS are dangerous because too much acid irritates the delicate lin- ing of the stomach, often leading to gastritis accompanied by serious stem ach ulcers. Food ferments and sours. creating the distressing gas which dis tends the stomach and hampers the normal functions of the vital internal organs, often affecting the heart
 It is the worst of folly to neglect such serious condition or. to treat with ordinary digestive aids which have no neutralizing effect on the stomach acids. Instead get from any druggist a few ounces, of Bisurated Magnesia and take a teaspoonful in a quarter glass of water right after eat ing. This will drive the gas. wind and bloat right out of the body. sweeten the stomach, neutralize the excess acid and prevent it's formation and there is no sourness or pain. Bisurated Mag nesia Gin powder or tablet form-neve1 | liquid or milk) is harmless to the stomach inexpensive to take and the best form of magnesia for stomach 1 purposes, It is used by thousands oj people who enjoy their meals with nc
 more fear of indigestion.

WASHINGTON, ID. c., June A.
Despite all the delays and diff
ficulties that have hampered
Uncle Sans production of COM
bat airplanes, Americas fighting
strength Of France and England,
and will, alone, considerably out
number Germany's forces in the
air.
This estimate is based on the
actual number of combat ma
chimes now being turned out and
the present increase in the rate
of production each week.
The airplane board, little real
izing the problems of production,
training, etc, they were to en-
counter. last spring laid out a pro-
gram that called for $40 squad
rons of American filters in France
by fall of 1918.
This meant $500 planes.
40 SquadrOns.
II also meant about 5000 train
ed filters, thousands of skilled
airplane mechanics, scores of air
dromes in France and the devel-
opment of great organization
stretching from the factories and
training fields of the United
States across 5000 miles off
ocean.
In the light OF actual produc-
tion today, of machines completed
and in process of building and of
filters trained and in process of
training, We will not be able to
put 240 sauadrons Of planes into
France this summer.
But at the present rate of pro-
