Roands in inc Lsaatt Of Life.

At the weekly session of the Young Mems Bible study class at the Y. NJ. c. A. Tuesday evening the topic was The Ladder of Life. The following rounds were emphasized as necessary to build the ladder that will constitute a success full life: The rotihd of faith is absolutely necessary in the structure of Christian life, for without faith it is impossible 10 please God. Courage is another round that aoes to make the ladder of life; {; courage enables us to live a Christian life fearlessly, So that Ne feat not to do the right thing, even though Ne have eppo- sition. The round of wisdom was Sue- gested as necessary to ( true life, and Solomon was mentioned as a. rare exaf1- pie of Sae who sought wisdom before any thing else. Temperance Is another essen tial in life that is to count for the highest and Best iftempefance is direct hindrance to success not only as regards drinking but the demand is to be etfnper- ate in all things. Patience was the last round mentioned in the discussion and the point was made that Ne must not only have patience regarding Our daily duties but espeleally patience with others if we remember how very patient God is with us, we will be more patient with those about uE

BATTERY B's PROSPECTS
 FOR STRONG BALL TEAM

From the material they have to draw from the indications are that Battery B, c. A. C., c. N. G., will have one of the strongest baseball teams in this section of the state. About twenty-five members of the battery have already signed up for the preliminary tryout which is to be held Saturday. The battery has ap- pointed a committee to secure the servic- es of a competent coach for the season.
 When the team is formed it will be fully equipped by the battery. Baseball players who desire to join the team may do so by enlisting in the battery as there is still room for a few more men. The vacancies are caused by the fact that several members of the battery have been discharged as their time has ex- pifed.
 When the battery goes to camp on June 12th they expect to take with them a team that wilDclean up any baseball team at Camp Devens. The camp dates have been set for June 18th to 18th in elusive and in all probability the battery will go to Devens overland by truck if the battery equipment arrives in time. The start will be made on Sunday morning and the battery will arrive home 6fi 6 Sunday, having one full Sun day in camp.
 Plans are already under way for the final dance of the season which will be i held next month The battery is plan | ming to make this the biggest affair oi the season. The dance committee is now con1mun nicating with some of the bes l orchestras in the state.
 l The drill hour Monday evening was de voted to guard duty. Copies of the general order were distributed to thu
 men with instructions to have the orders | learned by the next drill night. I'm
 usual non commissioned officers schoo will be held at the arnnory Thursday ev
 enihs. At the last meeting of the non com school Lieut.. Earle c. Herrick, wh, served overseas with the 5eth artillery
 gave a very instructive talk on the 15|
 nm gur with which the battery will b equipped.

TELLS DYSpEpTICS WHAT TO EAT
Avoid Indigestion, Sour Acid Stomach, Heartburn, Gas
 on Stomach, Etc.

Indigestion and practically all forms ef Etomach trouble, say medical authorities, nre due nine times out of ten to an ea- eess of hydrochloric acid inthe stomach. Chronic "acid stomach" is exceedingly dangerous and sufferers should do either Dne 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 the harmful acids and prevent the for nation of gas or sourness by the use of q little Bisurated Magnesia at their meals.
 There is probably no better. safer or more reliable stomach antacid than Blsurated 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- gsstent. But teGspoonfu1 of the pow der or couple of fve-grain tablets taken in a little water with. the food will neutralize the excess acidity which may be present and prevent its further formation, This removes the whole cause of the trouble and the meal di- gests naturally and he4lthful1y with out need of pepsin pills or artificial digestents-
 Get a few ounces of Bisurated Magnesia from any reliable druggist Ask for either powder or tablets. It never comes as g liquid, milk or citrate and in the bisurated form is not a laxative. Try this plan and eat what you want at your next meal and see If this isn't the best advice you ever had on what to eat"

Francis Gallagher.

Joseph R. Stafford, chaplain of slocum post No. 10, c. A. R., conducted the fu- neral services Monday afternoon in Providence for Francis Gallagher, who died Friday night at the Soldiers home, Bristol.
 It was MT. GallagheFs wish, as set forth in the arrangements for his funeral which he made some time ago, that his passing should be marked only with the Grand Army service with which so many of his Civil war comrades had been laid to rest. Accordingly, no clergyman off, ciated.
 Members of Slocum post were present at the undertaking rooms at 27 Broad street at o'clock for the preliminary service Owing to the advanced age of the veterans there were no active bearers from among them. Officers of the post rode to the Swan Point cemetery. where the 0. A. R. eonmittal service was read MT. Gallagher was buried in the family i lot.
