TELLS DYSPEPT|CS
 WHAT TO EAT
Avoid Indigestion, Sour Acid Stomach, Heartburn, Gas
 on Stomach, Etc

Chronic "acid stomach" is exceeding ly; dangerous. and sufferers should do either one of two things.
 Either they can go on limited and often disagreeable diet, avoiding foods that disagree with them, or they can eat as they please in reason and make it practice to counteract the effect of the harmful acids and prevent the formation of gas or sourness by the use of a little Bisurated Magneisa at their meals.
 There is probably no better, safer or more reliable stomach antiacid than Bisurated Magnesia, which you can get from any drug store. and it is widely used for this purpose. It has no direct action on the stomach and is not di- gestent. But teaspoonful of the DOW der or couple of fvegrain tablets taken in little water with the food will neutralize the excess acidity which may be present and prevent its further forma ton. This removes the whole i.cause of the trouble and the meal di- gests naturally and healthfully, with out need of pepsin pills or artificial d!gestents.
 Try this plan and eat what you want at your next meal and see if this isn the best advice you ever had on what to eat"

 Most persons have noticed a pecu- liar taste to the city water supply for

It is to affiliate themselves with an organ- 1 ization that will include millions of men who were in the various branches 1 of the army, navyxand auxiliary ser vices. What seems to be needed here, 1 some of the men said on Wednesday, | was to find somebody who will take 1 the initiative. Officers, non-commis
 stoned officers, privates. or men in any branch other than the army service
 may start petition and forward it At the present time a post is about to be organized in Putnam.
