OUR FRIENDSHIP
Tells Rotarians Statesman
Was Recently Elected Peer
on That Platform.

The declaration by Secretary Of
the Navy DENLY that there is a
perfect desire on the part of the
Japanese to be friendly to this coun.
try" was the keynote Of Navy
Night" staged by the Rotary Club
Of Washington last evening at the
Willard. The Cabinet member. just
returned from a trip through the
Orient. was guest OF honor at a
dinner and program ensuing.
DENLY based his argument largely
upon the welcome he received from
Nipponese children, who could not
possibly be trained to hypocrisy"
and the election of a statesman re,
Gently to the House of Peers on a
platform of friendship to the United
States.
The Rotarians carried out the idea
back-of the celebration by donning
sea a.going ducks. Among the enter
tainers were Russ Brown, Jean
Whitaker, Joe Browning and George
O'Connor. The Secretary of the
Navy held his listeners with graphic
descriptions of the long trip via the
Panama canal. He extolled the
arms of the services by declaring:
Americans should take their hats
off to an army and navy that are
ready for either peace or war"

Ach acidity and call 1t indigestion when
IN reality their trouble is due to gastric
catarrh OF the stomach" writes New
York physician.
Cattarh OF the stomach is dangerous
because the mucous membrane lining OF
the stomach is thickened and coating
of phlegm covers the surface so that the
digestive fluids cannot mix with the rood
and digest them. This condition soon
breeds deadly disease in the fermented,
unassimilated food. The blood is pollut-
ed and carries the infection throughout
the body. Gastric ulcers are apt TO form
and frequently an ulcer is the first sign
OF a deadly cancer.
In Catarrh of the stomach a good and
safe treatment is to take before meals
teaspoonful OF pure Bisurated Magnesia
in half glass OF hot water as hot as
YOU can comfortably drink IL. The hot
water washes the mucous from the stom-
aCh walls and draws the blood to the
stomach while the Bisurated Magnesia
Is an excellent solvent for mucous and in
creases the efficiency of the hot water
treatment Moreover the Bisurated Mag
nesia will serve AS powerful but harm
less antacid which will neutralize any
excess hydrochloriC acid that may be in
your stomach and sweeten its food con.
tents Easy natural digestion without
distress of any kind should soon follow
Bisurated MaEnesia is not a laxative, Is
harmless. pleasant and easy to take and
can be obtained from any local druggist
Don't confuse Bisurated Magnesia with
other forms Of magnesia milks, Citrates
etc but get II in the pure bisurated
form (powder or tablets). especially pre-
pared for this purpose.

KANSAS CITY, Mo-, Oct. s.
"As good as the day they were
made"
That's what ]. N. Hook, Of
Fulton, Mo-, says of his twenty
five-year-old pants.
Why, he wouldn't give that
pair of pants for a dozen Of the
modern-day lightweights such as
some of our nifty "cake eaters"
sport.
Hook wears 'em every day, ex-
cept at such times as he takes
'em off to let Mrs. Hook launder
them.
Then he's got to wear a pair
of store trousers!
And, believe me, he's always
glad to get back in his home
made pants. Although he's worn
them quarter of a century, there
isn't a button off or a hole in
them to indicate the passing of
time or that they are not good
for twenty-five years more.
