ACID IN STOMACH
SOURS THE FOOD
Says Excess of Hydrochloric Acid
is Cause of Indigestion.

A well-known authority states that
stomach trouble and indigestion are near
ly always due to acidity-acid stomach
and not, as most folks believe, from
a lack of digestive juices. He states
that an excess of hydrochloric acid in
the stomach retards digestion and starts
food fermentation, then our meals sour
like garbage in a can, forming acrid
fluids and gases which initiate the
stomach like toy balloon We then
get that heavy lumpy feeling in the
chest, we eructate sour food, belch gas,
or have heartburn, hatulence, water
braSh, or nausea.
He tells us to lay aside all digestive
aids and instead, get from any pharmacy
four ounces of Jad Salts and take a
tablespoonful in glass of water before
breakfast while it is effervescing. and
furthermore, to continue this for cne
week While relief follows the first
dose, It is important to neutralize the
acidity, remove the gas-making mass,
start the liver, stimulate the kidneys
and thus promote free flow OF pure
digestive juices.
lad Salts is inexpensive and is mad
from the acid of grapes and lemon
juice, combined with lithia and sodium
phosphate This harmless salts is used
by thousands of people for stomach
trouble with excellent results

MARION, o., July 31-In the OPP
ening speech of his front porch cam
paign, Senator Harding told a del
egation from Richland county to-
day that the greatest usefulness of
the nation demanded the leveling of
class and sectional barriers and the
realization of the independence and
mutually of interest of all our peo-
pie" He said the great war helped to-
ward such a realization.
Senator Harding did not refer to
the League of Nations directly, but
said the nations ''highest duty is to
cling to the fundamentals on which
we builded and hold fast to the ma
tionality which inspired our onward
