Acids in Stomach
Cause Indigestion
Crate Gas. sourness and Pain.
How To TrcaL

Medical authorities state that nearly
nine-tenths Of the cases Of stomach trou-
bic, indigestion, sourncss, burning, gas,
bloating, nausea, etc. are due TO an ex-
cess OF hydrochloric acid in the stomach
and not as some believe to a lack OF d.
gvstiye juices. The delicate stomach lin-
ing is irritated, digestion Is delayed and
food sours. causing the disagreea bile
symptoms which every stomach sufferer
knows so we'll.
Artificial digestents are not needed In
such cases and may do real harm. Try
laying aside all digestive aids and in
stead get from any druggist few ounces
Of Bisurated Magnesa and take a tea
spoonful in a quarter glass Of water
right after eating. This sweetens the
stomach, prevents the formation OF ex
cess acid and there Is no sournass gas
or pain. Bisurated Magnesia On powder
or tablet, form-never liquid or milk is
harmless TO the stomach, inexpensive To
take aud Is the most efficient form OF
magnesia for stomach purposes. II Is
used by thousands OF people who enjoy
their meals with no more fear OF indf.

This. Colonel Mills said, might ac-
count for the phenomena of the mys-

eclipse OF the sun and unaccounted
for by any scientific theory.
"Einsteins theory" he continued,

OF an atmosphere on the moon and
other planets may account Cor the
dislocation OF the stars noticed on
Photographic plates made during the
solar eclipses and explained by Elm
stein on an entirely different theory.
According TO the German scientist,
the dislocation is caused by the suns
attraction OF the light rays from
these stars as the rays pass through
the zone Of the suns influence.
The shadow bands. however, never
have been explained at all. They
seem to have been overlooked in
practically all discussions OF the pho
tographs. While they may be explain
ed by Einstein's theory Of relatively.

reasonable. In fact. IL could be

Reaching the apex OF her career

the screen a piece OF work which
will go down in history among the
first ranks OF screen acting.
After her work in Reputation. "
Miss Dean had a reputation OF much
merit to maintain. This she has done
most admirably in, "Conilict."
The picture is the last word In
thrilling screen drama. IL grips one
with its suspense almost from the
first fash. Its climax is built around
the dynamiting OF big log-jam in
the swollen waters OF the great
north woods and the succeeding
floods OF logs and water down the
valley, sweeping everything in its
path. The big punch comes when
the heroine. played by Miss Dean,
rides madiy down the bank abreast
OF the hood, leaps periously from
log 20 log through the flow and res
cues her unconscious sweetheart,
played by Herbert Rawlinson. Just
as he is about to be swept over the
