By arthur O'Shaughnessy

By arthur O. Shaughnessy
We are the music makers,
And we are the dreamers of dreams,
Wandering by lone sea-breakers,
And sitting by desolate streams;
World losers and world forsakers,
On whom the pale moon CLEANS;
Yet we are the movers and shakers
Of the world for ever, it seems
With wonderful deathless ditties
We build up the worlds great cities,
And out of a fabulous story
We fashion an empires glory;
One man with dream, at pleasure,
Shall go forth and conquer crown;
And three with new songs measure
Can trample an empire down.
We in the ages lying
In the buried past of the earth,
Built Ninevah with our signing,
And Babel itself with our mirth;
And o'erthrew them by prophesying
To the old Of the new worlds worth;
For each age is dream that is dying,
For one that is coming to birth.-Sel.

Thousands of people suffer more or
less constantly from furred, coated
tongue, bad breath, sour burning
stomach. frequent vomiting, rumbling
wind and stomach acidity and call 1t
indigestion when in reality their trou-
BILE is due to gastric cstarrh OF the
stomach" writes a New York ply
siCian.
Catarrh Of the stomach is dangerous
because the mucous membrane lining
of the stomach Is thickened and a
coating phlegm covers the surface SO
that the digestive fluids cannot mix
with the food and digest them. This
condition soon breeds deadly disease
in the fermented, unassimilated food.
The blood is polluted and carries the
, infection throughout the body. Gastric
ulcers are apt to form and frequently
an ulcer is the first sign of a deadly
cancer.
In catarrh of the stomach q good
and safe treatment is to take before
meals teaspoonful of pure Bisurated
Magnesia in half a glass of hot water
as hot as you can comfortably drink
it. The hot water washes the muc-
Gus from the stomach walls and draws
the blood to the stomach while the
bisurated magnesfa is an excellent
solvent for mucus and increases the
efficiency Of the hot water treatment
Moreover the Bisurated Magnesia will
serve as powerful but harmless ant
acid which will neutralize any excess
hydrochloric acid that may be in your
stomach and sweeten its food con-
tents. Easy, natural digestion without
distress OF any kind should soon fol-
low. Bisurated Magnesia is not a
laxative. is harmless. pleasant and
easy to take and can be obtained from
any local druggist. Don't confuse
Bisurated Nagnesia with other forms
OF magnesia, milks, citrates, etc. but
get 1t in the pure bisurated form

pared for this purpose.

PAPER SAVING URGED
BY INDUSTRY BOARD
Conservation of Agents Involved
Sought for War.

Everybody save his bit OF paper to
help win the war is the slogan of the
pulp and paper division OF the War
Industries Board. The statement says:
America is today face to face with
a situation in which, in respect to
paper also. we must save or suffer.
Every ton o. coarse paper represents
q ton OF coal which has been used to
produce it. II every loyal American
would cut down his consumption of
paper . per cent. the railroads would
be spared 100000 tons of freight and
2,50O,0OO tons of coal would be saved.
This is not small or unimportant, but
tremendously significant.
Every pound of paper wasted di-
minishes the available supply of
chemicals requisite foy making the
munitions of war. sulphur is wasted
when you waste paper. Chlorine is
wasted when you waste paper. Paper
is bIeaChed with chlorine. CaustiC
soda is wasted when you use unneCes-
sary quantities of paper and the gov
ernment already notes a shortage of
5000 tons.

candy does not seem to be one of the
results of wartime food thrift
How do we stand now with regard
to the use of sugar. This is a ques-
ton that every woman in charge of
her own kitchen naturally asks.
Recently in a report Of the advisory
committee of producers in Washing
ton the following resolution was
passed: Whereas large quantities of
sugar are consumed in the n1anufac-
ture of confectionery, soft drinks, and
unnecessary products, thus using an
essential needed for the canning OF
fruits, preservation of milk. and fer
other necessary uses.
Therefore, we recommend to the
Food Administration that such action
be taken as will cause a material de-
creases Of the use OF sugar for nom
essentia purposes. And that, in con-
sidering tho distribution of sugar. pri-
GRITTY be given in the following order:
Household consum ption, preserving
trades ice cream trades, confectionery
trades. sweet drink trades.
Apparently this gives US the cue we
need No actual shortage of sugar cx-
lists. We are not saving il for the al
lies or for the army. But we are saw
ing it for ourSelves-saving it for the
preservation of fruits for next winter.
The least we can do then is to con-
tinue moderate use of sugar and posi-
lively to eliminate any waste of it
