THE NEWSPRINT SITUATION.

The situation today in the news
. print market is far from encourag-
Ing. The trend Of the market is
upwards and the supply Is not in-
creasing. Congestion of freight
traffic, due to severe weather in
New England, and shortage of
cars at many mills only serves to
complicate the situation.
Newspapers everywhere are re-
dncing sizes and saving paper
wherever possible. 1t is not un-
reasonable to suppose that further
advances in both subscription price
and advertising rates may become
generally necessary to save the
situation for many newspapers.

He states that an excess OF hydro

gases which initiate the stomach like
a toy balloon. We then get that heavy,

heartburn. flatulence. waterbrash, or
nausea.
He tells us to lay aside all digestive
aids, and instead get from any phar-
macy four ounces of Jad Salts and take
a tablespoonful IN a glass of water
before breakfast while II IL efferves-

this for one week. While relief fol-
