The Toll Acidity Takes

You go to bed dog-tired but the
minute you hit the pillow all sleepi-
ness vanishes. If you sleep at ALL
it's only in snatches, and you wake
out of these 'stupors" with q
strange, startled feeling. sometimes
in a cold sweat. Morning finds you
a rag. gaunt and hollow-eyed and
barely able to crawl out of bed.
Acidity is due to our unnatural
eating habits, our excessive >smok-
ing and irregular hours. The ex-
cess acid upsets digestion and
causes acid indigestion, with gas
and heartburn. 1t causes putrefac-
ton and fermentation in the CASTRO
intestinal canal, which frequently
results in ragged nerves, sleepless-
ness, loggy days and general loss of
strength and vitality.
A remarkable new corrective of
acidity has been developed by a
famous 100-year- pharmaceu-
teal house in Germany. AS an
acid corrective it begins where milk
of magnesia and bicarbonate of
soda leave off. This new, improved
magnesia comes in the form of
small white tablets called Mag
nesia OXoids. which do not have to
be chewed, but which may be swal-
lowed whole. Magnesia OXoids,

Committeeman, to honor Gov. Roosevelt
as a presidential possibility in 1882. j..
The governor sailed through several
subjects in his address and dwelt upon
public utility and the water power fight
in New York, the farm problem, the
PENNSYLVANIA senatorial situation, and
ended in an appeal to Democratic or
CARNATIONS in every State to work con-
tinually from now until November next
for the success of their party.
Jouett Shouse, chairman Of the DEM
ocratic national executive committee,
dwelled primarily upon what he termed
the failure of the Republican party TO
enact a tariff measure.
Pouncing on what. he called "the
Grundy episode" Gov Roosevelt said:
Probably I should speak as q par
tisan Democrat and thank God for Jo-
seph Grundy, for he has done much
to aid the Democratic cause. But in
stead speak as an American citizen
and I hope that the rumors are not
true that the Governor of Pennsylvania
is going to appoint Grundy to the
United States Senate"
Deriding the reference to backward
States" made by Grundy in his recent
testimony before a congressional COM
mittee. the New York Governor called
these backward States" the backbone
of American civilization"

Gov. Ritchie offered figures showing
that In 1928 Boston, under such State
