 Irish Unity-The committee debate in the house fo commons yesterday on the powers of the Irish council under the new home rule bill illustrated a differ sence of view which is worth approaching. The council, of course, represents the two Irish parliaments jointly, and is inn portant as the germ of an ultimate single parliament for 8 United Ireland. R We all want the ultimate union, and con sequently we all want this germ to de- velop. The question is how best to en- courage it's development. One method would be to give it important work to do from the start and in particular to give
 it indispensable work, of the kind which in the country's interests cannot be left undone. The other is to avoi1 sGddling it with obligatory tasks, but to give it the widest possible range of optional tasks, which both parts of Ireland should ! have a realn interst in developing upon it, but should not be obliged to develop upon it until it and they were ready for that system. The first method attracts some people who genuinely desirs Irish unity; but we cannot think that-ex- cept on very cautious scale-it is cal- culated to achieve their object The second can easily be attacked and ridi- culed az partitionist policy but in re- ality it seems the most practical path toward unity.-London Chronicle.

 Sam De Grasse, George Fawcett, Kate V. Toncray, Bertram Grassby alone are sufficient to guarantee a quality production and in addition there is the winning little comed.enne Dorothy Gish whose wonderful cha racterization of "The Little Disturb er," in David w.

Says Indigestion Results From An Excess of Hydrochloric
 Acid

UndiScsted food delayed in the stomach decays, or rather, ferments the same as food left in the open air. says noted authority. He also tells us that indigestion is caused by Hyper-acidity. meaning, there is an excess of hydro-ohloric acid in the stomach which prevents complete digestion and starts food fermentation. Thus everything eaten sours in the stomach much like gar bage sours in can, forming acrid fluids and gases which initiate the stomach like toy balloon. Then we feel a heavy, lumpy misery in the chest, we belch up gas. we eruc- tate sour food or have heartburn, flatulence. water-brash. or nausea
 He tells us to lay aside all diges- tive aids and instead, get aid from any pharmacy four ounces of lad Salts and take a tablespoonful in a glass of water before breakfast and drink while it is efferyescing and furthermore, to continue this for a week While relief follows the first dose, 1t is important to neutralize the acidity, remove the gas-making mass. start the liver, stimulate the kidneys and thus promote a. free flow of pure digestive juices.
 lad Salts is inexpensive and is made from the acid of grapes and lemon juice, combined with lithia and sodium phosphate. The harm less salts is used by thousands of people for stomach trouble with ex- cellent results.
