TRY MACNESIA FOR
STOMACH TROUBLE
To Neutrahze Acidity ana Fermenta
ton. Prevents Indigestion, Sour
Classy Stomach

People who suffer from indigestion
usually have tried pepsn, charcoal,
drugs and various digestive aids and
know these things will not cure their
trouble-in some cases do not even
give relief.
But before giving up to chronic dys-
pepsia, just try the effect of a little
Bisurated Magnesia-not the ordinary
commercial carbonate, citrate or milk,
but pure Bisurated Magnesia which
you can obtain from practically any
druggist In either powder or tablet
form,
Take teaspoonful of the powder or
TOUR compressed tablets with a little
water after your next meal, and see
what difference this makes. 1t will
instantly neutralize the dangerous,
harmful acid in the stomach which
now causes your food to ferment and
sour, making gas, wind, hatulence,
heartburn and the bloated or heavy,
lumpy feeling that seems to follow
most everything you eat. You can en-
JOY your meals without fear of indi-
Scstion.-Adv.

Sketch of New
Executive Secretary
To Gov. Brewster

Carl Francis Morrison, recently
appointed private secretary to Gov
ernor Ralph O. Brewster. has had
a background of experience that
should render him especially well
fitted for the important position to
which he has recently been assigned.
He has had considerable neWspa-
per experience, starting in as a re-
porter on the Bangor Daily Com
mercial some six years ago, and
working later for the Portland
Press Herald, Worcester Telegram,
and the Christian Science Monitor.
1t is interesting to note that MIR.
Morrison was the first newspa per
man to discover" Governor Brew
ster as a gubernatorial possibility.
While acting as Eastern Maine cor
respondent for the Press Herald, he
wrote what is known as a "newspa-
per dope story" in which he made
the prophecy that a public demand
would arise for Mr.. Brewster as a
candidate. This was during the leg
islatiVe session in which the present
governor was serving as a State sem
ator and at least six months prior
to the announcement of his candi-
dacy.
Mr.. Morrison is a young man to
be holding a position of so much
prominence, being but 26 years Of
age. He is one of four sons of Mr..
and Mrs K. F.. Morrison of Bangor
He is a tall, broad -shouldered young
man, his athletic physique having
been developed by years of special
lied gymnasium work, which in
Guided teaching of wrestling classes
for boys at the Bangor Y. NJ. c. 4.
He is fond of outdoor sports, camp
ing, swimming and hiking, and will
thus be n Congenial companion for
Governor Brewster, who is an ardent
outdoorsman himself.
His principal hobby is reading.
and he devotes much of his spare
time to the study of American his
tory, specializing on the periods
leading up to and Immediately fol-
lowing the Revolution. He considers
Alexander Hamilton the greatest
American statesman In all history,
and has read upwards of 80 books
on his life and works-about every
thing that has ever been written
about him." he says, smilingly.
He Is also intensely interested In
governmental functions and politics.
and has studied both the theoretical
and practical side of government as
applied in this and foreign coun-
tries. At Bangor High school and
the University Of Maine he majored
in history and government, and
since completing his education he
has served in the Bangor city gov
eminent and has been active in po-

ltiCal campaigns, besides writing
politically for four newspapers.
Il consider politics a Fascinating
subject" he said in an interview at
the State House, Tuesday, zone in
which both men and women are
seen at their best and worst. It is
not the petty angles, or the ups and
downs of the political fortunes of
individuals or parties that interest
me, but rather the broader aspect
Of the development Of governmental
functions"
Mr.. Morrison is strong believer
in adhering 10 party lines, and has
always been a staunCh Republican.
Il consider that true government
must rest upon responsible political
systems" he said
lie was for time a member of
the Bangor Machine Gun unit of
the Maine National Guard, and two
summers ago was selected by
Colonel Harry NJ Bigelow, COM
mander OF the 103rd Maine Regi-
ment. as special publicity man for
the annual summer enCampment at
Augusta and Lewiston. His signed
articles describing the 50 mile hike
and general camp stories attracted
| wide attention, especially in East
ern Maine. lie is proud Of his for
mer outfit at Bangor, which won an
efficiency cup at this years encamp-
ment, and he expressed the opinion
that the National Guard is an ex-
cellent training school for good citi-
zenship and character building.
lie has a pleasing personality
making friends readily. and will I'M
doubtedly be popular member of
the State House family. He viii as
sumo his new duties the latter part
, of this week, after the return of the
governor from the Sesqui- Centennial
at Philadelphia.
