AUGUSTUS GAME PRESERVE

The increasing value of game pre-
serves is noticeable all over the coun-
try. beginning to make great ad-
vances with the realization that pro-
lection of game had become abso-
lutely necessary, were we not to see
the fading away of all kinds of game
animals and birds, some OF which had
become practically extinct. The
value of a game preserve to COM
munity and adjacent parts is unques-
toned. 1t may cause some annoy
ance to people accustomed to hunt
over such closed territory, but the
coming with time of increased game
in every particular more than pays
for any such personal less of privi-
lege.
Augusta, through the foresight and
work Of local game lovers and the
approval of the legislators, secured
such a preserve by act of the S0th

be a valuable and paying proposition
for this vicinity. Game will be given
a chance to propagate and the in
crease of the protected species will
naturally attract other game to a
place Of safety.
It is therefore to be hoped that
rigid observance of the restrictions
and projections thus placed by law
upon the territory of the Augusta
Game Preserve will be made by every
local citizen. The law went into eff
feet on July last and the Depart
ment of Inland Fisheries and Game
report that such observance has been
in full accord with the intent Of the
establishment of the preserve. Time
will prove that a continuation will do
wonders for local game conditions.
Make the observance unanimous.

Gas in the Stomach
Is Dangerous
Recommends Daily Use Of n6aguesia
to CveTcons TrouEia Caused by
Fermenting Food and Acid
Indigestion

Gas and wind in the stomach ac-
companied by that full, bloated feel
ing after eating are almost certain
evidence of the presence of excessive
hydrochloric acid in the stomach.
creating so-called 'acid indigestion. .
Acid stomachs are dangerous be-
cause too much acid irritates the
delicate lining of the stomach often
leading to gastritis accompanied by
serious stomach ulcers. Food fer
ments and sours, creating the distress
ing gas which distends the stomach
and hampers the normal functions of
the vital internal organs, often af-
fecting the heart.
1t is the worst of folly to neglect
such serious condition or to treat
with ordinary digestive aids which
have no neutralizing effect on the
stomach acids. Instead get from any
druggist few ounces of Bisurated
Magnesia and take a teaspoonful in a
quarter glass of water right after
eating. This will drive the gas. wind
and bloat right out of the body, sweet
en- the stomach, neutraiize the excess
acid and prevent its formation and
there is no sourness or pain. Bis
urated Magnesia Tin powder or tablet,
form-never liquid or milk is harm
less to the stomach, inexpensive to
take and the best form OF magnesia
for stomach purposes. 1t is used by
thousands of people who enjoy their
meals with no more fear OF Indiges-
tion.-Ady.

Statute Bar Associations
To Replace Voluntary Or
CARNATIONS for LAWYERS

Dayton, O.. Sept. 1.-THE voIun-
tary state bar association of today is
due to give way to an asSocia ton
created under state statute to which
every lawyer is required to belong,
according to Daniel W. Iddings of
this city. president of the Ohio State
Bar Association. The object sought
is protection of the public and the
legal profession from the unscrupu-
lous lawyer The associations would
have disciplinary powers
A definite movement to this end
which has already made considerable
progress is reported by Mr.. Iddings.
He noted that North Dakota has
made all lawyers of the state mem
bers of an association which is given
broad powers to evolve such organi-
cation as it secs fit. The law went
into effect July l.
In Florida, a more comprehensive
bill recently passed the state Senate.
The Michigan Senate has passed a
similar bill and in Ohio one was in
troduced in the Senate but failed to
pass The president of the Ohio Bar
Association added that the Nebraska.

A Thought for the Month.

All the editors in the world are al
ways telling all the people in the
world what TO do 1t is fortunate,
perhaps. that all the people do not al
ways do what all the editors tell
them. But the editors should worry!
Having given the advice, their re-
sponsibiity ends. They go ahead,
blithely or bitterly, as the editorial
temperament chances to trend. and
give out more advice This particu-
lar editor is like other brethren in
the field. He is full of good admoni
tons, if not of good deeds, and would
like TO emphasize a thought for the
month. He advises you to be cheer
full. to resist the prevailing contagion
of captious criticism, and to read the
Sermon on the Mount. We can't re-
form the world by barking at it. We
can only make ourselves and others
a bit uncomfortable. There is just
as much practical wisdom in the
words Of the Master. today. as when
he uttered them two thousand years
arc when he went up into mountain
and taught his disciples. When we
get mad at everybody. and smart
with a sense Of the seeming injustices
of the world, IL we get down the,
good book and read the fifth, sixth
and seventh chapters of Matthew,
how our worries and vexations fade
away,

CONSTITUTION DAY

Our President says he thinks of
Constitution Day "as marking the
real birth Of our nation" He prob
ably is also of the opinion that a ma
ton cannot afford to neglect its
birthdays. Surely it should not
cease to give heed to it's foundations,
which our Constitution really is.
Neither should 1t permit i'll con-
sidered tinkering Of those founda-
tons. Foundations are unstable
enough at best, especially if expan-
sion above them is needed. Certain
ly stability 10 required if they are to
support justice and insure domestic
tranquility" Pubiicists the world
over have been profoundly impressed
by the excellence of the plan and the
permanency OF construction shown in
the making of our Constitution. 1t
is nothing short of marvellous that it's
makers were able TO lay those
foundations deep enough, wide
enough. and strong enough to bear
the burdens that during the first CEN
fury were laid upon it, and now.
notwithstanding the dazzling changes
in national affairs it comes to be re-
garded by the civilized world as the
best example of constitutional gov
eminent ever devised.
Such transcending accomplishment
deserves day set apart in the
worlds calendar; it's omission from
the American would be inexcusabIe.
September the seventeenth is the
day. To observe it doesn't require
that we take a day off for golf or
horse racing. Five minutes devoted
IT, considering the priceless value of
this which we possess and should
preserve would be a slight tribute
and less obligation. At least we
may give that much. If we give more
We will be the richer for the giving.

MODERN FRANkENsTEINs

The legend on which the story Of
Franksnstein was based, was, it will
be remembered, of the scientist who
having created being in the form Of
man was tormented by the monster of
his own creation.
The chemists who seek formulas
for poison gas. secrets which would
enable one to destroy the life Of
another and one nation to annihilate
another people. should consider that
legend. It is not improbable that
some of them do; at least some of
them are recognizing the terrible re-
sponsibility they are mourning and
are urging that way out be found
ments
Considering the secret nature Of
the work. the possibility offered to
evade all regulation or restriction
this method of relief promises little,
although effort even in that direction
should not be neglected. A sugges-
ton more practical and worthy Of
consideration is the appeal of Gen
eral Maurice, who was director of
military operation in the British army
during the war He urges that sci
entists agree to do none of this work
in secret, TO announce all discoveries
which they make, also all discoveries
of antidotes or methods of defense
against these fiendish instrumental
ties, and in that way afford to the
world the only possible protection it
may have against devilish ingenuity
But this would afford no protection
against the avarice of the chemist in
quest of reward: his pledge would
not restrain him. If. however the
nations of the world would unite in
subscribing a fund to be distributed
as hire or rewards for the discoveries
mentioned and the publication of all
such and thus supplement the efforts
of the scientists themselves a practi-
cal restriction would be provided.
