He states that an excess of hydro Chloric acid in the stomach re+~r di- Eestion and starts food fermentation. then our meals sour like garbage in a can, forming acrid fluids and gases which infuJe the stomach like a toy balloon. We then get that heavy, empty feeling m the chest we eructate sour food. belch gas or have heart burn, hatulence, waterbrash, or nau- sea.
 He tells us to lay aside all digestive aids and instead, get from any phar- macy four ounces of lad Salts and take a tablespoonful in a. glass of V-a.- ter before breakfast while it is eff Servescinz, and furthermore. to con tinue this for one week. While relief follows the first dose. 1t Is important to neutralize the acidity, remove the gas-making mass, start the liver, stim- ulate the kidneys and thus promote a free flow of pure digestive juices.

NO MATERIAL
 REDUCTIONS EXPECTED
 In LUMBER PRICES

Horace F. Taylor. president of tine National Wholesale Lumber Dealers Association, writing from B, 1salo. N. Y, to the Division of Public Works and Construction Developments Of the U. S. Department of Labor, does not hesitate to say material reductions fin lumber prices will develop very slow ly, if at all. MT. Taylor says:
 '"The very clear majority of opin- ion we derive from representatives of the industry in all parts of the country, Is in effect that there will be no further reduction in the cost of lumber for 8 long period, and that there IS no safe ground. therefore, for postponing building in the hope of a reduction in this material We look upon the present rather quiet oondi- tons as temporary only and ans to

The cost of making lumber offers no chance of reduction. both on account of materials and supplies, and the cost Of labor which. 1t seems not only necessary but desirable to maintain al as nearly an adequate rate as posd- ble in view Of the present cost of Nv ing. In addition to the ordinary i'm crease in demand that Is expected. an unusual call for lumber for export to Europe will soon begin to have It's effect on the situation. Logging conditions during thea present winter hve been unfavorable, particularly in the North. and lumber production will apparently be less than that Of nor ma1 years for some time to come. There Is only one possible conclusion based upon the opinion of those con- suited and that is that as far az the !, lumber market is concerned. the present is an advantageous time to purchase"

ITALY WILL KEEP
ORDER FIRMLY,
DECLARES N|TT|
Transformation From War to
Peace Footing Must Come
With Disturbing People Will
Be New Policy.

ROME, July 10. (By the Associated
Press.)-The italian government in
tends to maintain order with firmness
and without hesitation or weakness,
said francesca Nitti, the premier,
speaking before parliament yesterday.
He summarized the program of the gov
eminent by saying 1t was planned to
hasten the peace negotiations so peace
could be concluded at once, with the
unfolding of Italian national aspira-
ions.
The rapid transformation from a wal
TO a peace footing Is to be effected and
what, was rendered necessary by the
conflict and has become superfluous,
and, indeed. harmful, in peace, will be
abolished, The bitter condition of the
people will be alleviated by the govern
ment, which is aiming to lower prices,
without which, he said, "it is impos-
sible to guarantee social peace"
Financial and economic reforms rem
dered necessary by the new conditions
will be rapidly prepared, the mainten-
ance of public order being in%dispens-
able for realization of the entire pro-
gram.
The supreme duty of the government,
Premier Nitti said, was the defense Of
liberty and order, without which Italy's
position would be weakened, and espe-
cially abroad. where 1t had been I'M
possible as yet to find a solution for the
Adriatic question. After repeating the
governments program of foreign policy
as outlined to the senate by Foreign
Minister Tittoni he added, Our foreign
policy must be the true policy of the
people. The epoch Of secrets-the epoch
In which nations entered into alliance
or into war without the peoples knowl-
edge has definitely ended for Italy"
Premier Nitti announced that the
army would be demobilized as soon as
the international situation and internal
order allowed.
Signor Nitti deplored manifestations,
fortunately isolated" aiming to SOW
distrust between Italy and her allies.
Some unpleasant incidents which
have occurred at Fiume and in some
other cities have been exaggerated" the
premier went on. France and Italy
have many virtues in common, but also
some defects, among which is that Of
being easily excited over small episodes.
No episode can alter the relations be-
tween two countries consecrated by
~bloodshed together. Democratic France
, friendly cooperation for the develop
ment of her national program.
The hour is critical, perhaps the
most critical In the history of Italy.
But we have firm faith that Italy pos
seSses the energies necessary not only
to surpass the present difficulty, but to
give this country the place 1t deserves
in the world. We will win because 1t Is
necessary to win because we must win.
Whoever speaks of revolution in the
resent condition Of production and ex-
change must be considered an enemy OF
the people. II revolution is an evil In
