PUT STOMACH IN
 FINE CONDITION
Says Indigestion Results from an Excess of Hydrochloric
 Acid

Undigested food delayed in tre stomach decays. or rather, ferments the same as food left in the open air, says a noted authority. He also tells us that indigestion is caused by hy- per-acidity, meaning there is an ex- cess of hydrochloric acid In the stom- ach which prevents complete diges- tion and starts food fermentation. Thus everything eaten sours in the stomach much like garbage sours in can, forming acrid fuilds and gases which initiate the stomach like a toy balloon. Then we feel heavy, lumpy misery in the chest, we belch up gas, we eructate sour food or have heartburn, flatulence. water-br brash or nausea.
 He tells us to lay aside all digestive aids and instead get from any phar- macy four ounces of lad Salts and take a tablespoonful in a glass ot water before breakfast and drink while it is effervescng and further more, to continue this for a week. While relief follows the first dose, 1t Is important to neutralize the acidity, remove the gas-making mass. start the liver. stimulate the kidneys and thus promote free flow of pure di gestive juices.
 lad Salts is inexpensive and Is made from the acid of grapes and lemon juice, combined with lithia and sodium phosphate. This harmless salts is used by thousands of people for stomach trouble with excellent results.--Edv.

 STATE COMMITTEE
Those Who Failed to Meet Technical Requirements May Be Permitted to Do So,
 Webb Says
By FRED H. GORMLEY Montgomery Bureau. The Age Herald 221-2 First National Bank Building

Montgomery, April 11.-(Special) Persons who made an honest effort to qualify as candidates for office in the democratic party but failed to comply with the technical rules es- tablished by the democratic exeeu- tive committee will De permitted to complete their qualifications if the committee agrees with James H. Webb of Mobile, chairman, who an- nounced in Montgomery today that several persons who are regarded as candidates have failed to complete their qualifications.
 Much confusion has arisen since the state committee laid down the rules for the primary. In other years can didates for the house of representa- tives have filed their qualifications with the county democratic executive committees. This time the state com mittee ruled that they should qualify with the state committee, having con- strued the office of representative as a state office.
 The result has been that several persons who seek to be representa-

CContinued From Page one)

(Continued From Page One) Sometimes its HI. R." meaning home run. Sometimes it's "S B. w." mean ing three base wallop. It is doubt full even if the walls of Babylon would have withstood Harrys mighty smashes. He's learned his spelling lesson thoroughly, and knows how to spell focus.
 Turbulent Tommy Taylor, the Tempestuous Texas third -saeker will hit fifth. Tommy was seen running moth balls through a meat grinder last night. Tommy explained that he was doing this to get familiar with ground balls for this afternoons thriller. Some performers soak their bat, but Tommy soaks the ball in stead. He's rearing to go.
 Yeh, All Three of Elm
 Claude Robertson, catcher de luxe, will have his hair parted carefully this morning. He will take a comb and put one hair on Lhe left and the other on the right He enjoys an unusual place in the batting order flor a catcher. He will hit sixth. His prowess with the bat caused Moley to run him up on the list. Robby has the original Peg O Me Heart" and Volunteer base-runners will come to both woe and woah, should they try to misplace a base or sc this alter noon.
 Robby hits before Neun and Burkett hits after Neun. Fans will see in the Blue Ridge marvel. the greatest fielding first sacker who has ever camped at Rickwood, if Johnny is right today. He covers more ter ri a cffnR station and the baseball is certainly contag- ious if Johnny ever comes anywhere near 1t.
 Howard Burkett, who bears the monicker Jesse" will hit next the pitcher and look after the shortfield Moley seems satisfied that the scion of d former big-league star will at tract so much attention down south this year that he will be gobbled up by the ivory hunters by the time the campaign is ready to fade.
 And. now we get to the pitcher. Bill Statham. who pitched the opener for Nashville last year, will work the opener for Birmingham this year against his former mates, and Tommy Gallagher, who was on Moley's pay roll last season will try to get re- venge this year by beating his former comrades in the opener. There's situation. Each finger will be pitch ing his heart out and his arm off in an endeavor to win.
 $ going to be great afternoon, brethren. Birmingham in the down. town district will b, as dead as Ras- putin after o'clock. It's up to you to join the multitudes and root for the Barons. It's always the biggest day of the year from sportive stand point so far as Birmingham is con cerned. It's up to everybody and a fraction to so out and help Blrming- ham win the attendance trophy and the game.
