BRITISH line IN
MACEDONIA SCENE
OF VARIED ACTION
DIV Asrociated Press)

WITH BRITISH ARMIES IN MACE
donna. Sept. 19.-The right OF the
British line in Macedonia Is formed
by the Struma valley. British troops
arrived there in June, 1916. when the
temperature was los in the shade and
they have been there ever since.
1t Is an area Of varied fighting. A
few miles Of trench warfare, then a
vast patrolling area Of No Mans Land
and No Mans Sea, the latter being
the lake with its fotilla Of tiny patrol
boats. Most OF the fighting has taken
place in the Sores plain. once the most
fertile tobacco and grain area In the
world but now jungle of monstrous
wild plants which tower high over a
mans head so that the whole area is
a sitting. bewildering. deserted, wilder
ness.
The inhabitants have long since dis
appeared with the unconscious resig-
nation of those who for years have
known no visitors but armies. no his
tory but that of death from the i'm
partial bullets and shells OF rival IN
vaders, whose Quarrels the local in
habitants neither understood nor cared
about
The Anopheles mosquito is now the
uncrowned monarch Of this whole
country. It Is far more deadly en-
envy than bullets or shells aid armies
cannot live in the jungle, SO that this
vast area is now only a district for
patrols. The British have their posi-
tons on one range of hills, the Bulsar-
ians on the other and their patrols
often meet in that vast, ford No
Mans land.
But since the Bulgarians are always
nervous about Sores and the railway
they have to occupy northern strip
of the valley and that is where the
British continually annoy and harass
them. In this area the British are al
ways on the offensive raiding and
feinting and doing their utmost to
keep the Bulgarians in a continuous
state Of nerves.

Acids in Stomach
Cause Indigestion
Create Gas, Sourness and Pain
How To Treat.

Medical authorities state that near
ly nine-tenths of the cases of stomach
trouble, indigestion. sourness, burning,
gas, bloating, nausea, etc, are due TO
an excess of hydrochloric acid in the
stomach and not as some believe to a
lack of digestive juices. The, delicate
stomach lining is irritated, digestion
is delayed and food sours, causing the
disagreeable symptoms which every
stomach sufferer knows so well.
Artificial digestents are not needed
in such cases and may do real harm.
Try laying aside all digestive aids and
instead get from any druggist few
ounces of Bisurated Magnesia and take
a teaspoonful in quarter glass Of wa
ter right after eating. This sweetens
the stomach, prevents the formation of
excess acid and there is no sourness.
gas or pain. Bisurated Magnesia Gin
powder or tablet form-never liquid or
milk is harmless to the stomach. in
expensive to take and is the most eff
ficient form of magnesia for stomach
purposes. 1t is used by thousands OF
people who enjoy their meals with no
more fear OF ndigestion.-Adv.

The Journal Of Heredity rises to re-
mark that the first mermaid in all
probability was not pure invention. In
all probability the mermaid story
started when some ignorant seafaring
man saw nothing less than a nanatee
disporting himself through the distant
waves At some distance. the scien-
tific periodical observes, the manatee
or "sea cow does not look unlike a
human being. the shape of its head
and facial formation when indistinctly
seen taking on the appearance OF life
closely akin in mankind.

had buried in gardens and others

They are to bear IN mind that the

FARMERS HOLD WEETIkG
AND DISCUSS ORGANIZATION

A well attended meeting of the In
dustrial Cooperative Union, which is
composed of farmers, was held in the
city hall Friday evening and was adj
dressed by B. N. Davis of Milwaukee,
manager of the cold storage plants
which are conducted in connection

milk and milk products direct to a
central point for distribution to con-
sumers and also to purchase supplies
needed on the farms at first cost, such
as salt, seed, binding Irvine and other
articles. Owing to war conditions the
attempt to ship milk, etc, has been
laid over for awhile, but the purchas-
ing of farm necessities at first hand
will be continued.
The local membership is more than
one hundred, and Emil Podewells of
this city is the local manager The
main office of the association is To-
Gated at Madison.
