TELLS DYSPEPTICS
WHAT TO EAT
Avoid indigestion, Sour Acid Stomach,
Heartburn, Gas On Stomach, Etc.

Indigestion and practically all forms Of
stomach trouble, say medical authorities.
are due nine times out of ten TO an excess
of hydrochloric acid in the stomach.
Chronic "aeid stomach is exceedingly
dangerous and sufferers should do either
one OF two things.
Either they can go on a limited and
often disaEreeable diet. avoiding foods
that disagree with them, that irritate the
stomach and lead to excess acid secretion
they can eat as they please In reason
and make Ii a practice to counteract the
effect of the harmful acid and prevent the
formation of gas, sourness or premature
fermentation by the use of little Bisur-
ated Magnesia at their meals.
There is probably no better, safer or
more reliable stomach andacid than Bisur-
ated Magnesia and il is widely used for
this purpose 1t has no direct action on
the stomach and is not a digestent. But
a teaspoonful of the powder or a couple
of five grain tablets taken in little water
with the food VIII neutralize the excess
acidity which may be present and prevent
its further formation. This removes the
whole cause of the trouble and the meal
digestg naturally and healthfuily without
need of pepsin pills or ARTIFICIAL digestents.
Get few ounces of Wsurated Magnesia
from any reliable druggist Ask for
either powder or tablets. 1t never comes
as 4 liquid, milk or citrate and In the
bisurated form is not 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-"-AdY.

zation Il big democratic cooperative
undertaking, as it should be, for while
no one, before the Victory Highway
association was organized, had devel-

such national undertaking should be
developed. 1t was our privilege here
in Topeka to start this movement, but
it is our plan to make of it a NATIONAL,
rather than a local, enterprise and
when the Victory Highway asso citation
gets fully under way, we will have
the names of patriotic men and women
from the Atlantic to the Pacific who
will be ready to cooperate with us in
establishing such a memorial for those

YOU'LL GET RID OF
BLACKHEADS SURE

There is one simple, safe and sure way
that never fails to get. rid Of blackheads
and that is to dissolve them.
To do this get two ounces Of caIonite
powder from apy drug store-sprinkle a
little on a hot, wet sponge-rub over the
blackheads briskly-wash the parts and
you will be surprised how the blackheads
have disappeared. Big blackheads, little
blackheads, no matter where they are, SIM
ply dissolve and disappear. leaving the
parts without any mark whatever. Black
heads are simply a mixture of dust and
dirt and Eecretiens from the body that
form In the pores of the skin. PinchinG
and squeezing only cause irritation, make
large pores. and do not get the black
heads out after they become hard. The
calOnite powder and the water simply dis
solve the blackheads so they wash right
out, leaving the pores free and clean and
in their natural condition. Anyone troubled
with these unsightIy blemishes should GER
tainly try this simple method.-Ady.

American I. & 7. Company Has
$4,000 Stockholders.

Distribution of ownership of South
western Bell Telephone securities
among users of service is a plan which
the big wire corporation will present
in Kansas. Officials of the company
are in conference today at the general
state offices of the company in To-
peka relative to the plan. The pro-
posal will call for distribution of per
cent cumulative stock among patrons.
NJ. c. Rorty in Topeka.
In the party in Topeka today are
NJ C. Rorty of New York, assistant
vice president of the American Tele-
phone & Telegraph company, and q.
@. Gepharr of st. Louis, representing
the Bell company. In connection with
announcement here today of the SELL
ing plan the corporations officials also
made public the fact that David f.

Plan for Stock Distribution.
Rorty and Houston recently re-
turned from a meeting of the Inter-
national Chamber of Commerce in Lon
don. In the London meeting Rorty
represented General Walker D. Hines,
chairman of the international commit
tee on transportation and communt-
cation. In Topeka today Rorty stated
that sentiment abroad indicated heavy
overseas demands for American agri-
cultural products in the future in
spite of disturbed and political condt-
lions in Europe. Detailed plans OF the
big stock distribution plan affecting
the company's patrons was outlined
by Rorty to Kansas officials.
1.-THE Southwestern Bell is planning
to offer to the public a new issue OF
seven per cent cumulative preferred
stock" said Rorty. There is little
doubt that the security will find a
ready market among investors. Its
primary purpose is not to raise large
sums of money, altho any sums raised
will be used for additions to the tele-
phone plant. The real object of the
sale of stock is to distribute the own
ership OF the local telephone system
more widely among those who make
use of the service and to interest the
people of Topeka and other Kansas
cities in the development and growth
of the telephone business"
In his statement here today Rorty
pointed out that there are now 172,00O
stockholders of the American, 1ele-
phone q Telegraph company, not in
Guiding 5000 employees who now own
or have in course of purchase shares
in the parent company.

Process Must Be Completed
In Five Years.

Washington. July 28.-Favorable
report on the administration bill
giving the treasury blanket auth
GRITTY to conduct negotiations for
the funding of the Allied debts, was
ordered today by the senate finan-
cling committee. 1t carries a COM
mittee amendment requiring that
the funding be completed within
five years.
Secretary Mellon formally adj
vised the senate finance committee
today in reply to a committee in
quiry, as to his views regarding the
extent to which the United States
had been committed under the Will
son administration on deferment
OF payments of Allied war loans
and interests.
The government was committed,
he said, to postponement of inter-
est payments for two or three years
and subsequent spreading out of
postponed payments contingent
upon such foreign governments
carrying out with reasonable
promptness, after this government
is ready to proceed, a satisfactory
funding of its existing short-time
obligations to this country"
Mr.. Mellon added that he did not
think any obligation had been i'm
posed on the government through
negotiations in London between
MIR Rathboae of the treasury and
a British official, frequently dis
cussed in the finance committee
hearings.
