Stomach Troubles Due to Acidity SO SAVS EMINENT SPECIALIST So-called stomach troubles, such us indigestion, wind, stomach-ache and in ability to retain food, are in pKobably nine cases out of ten simply evidence that fermentation is taking place in the food contents of the stomach, causing the formation of gas and acids. Wind distends the stomach, and causes that full, oppressive feeling sometimes known as heartburn, while the acid ir ritates and inflames the delicate lining of the stomach. The trouble lies en tirely in the fermenting food. Such fermentation is unnatural, and acid formation is not only unnatural, but may involve most serious consequences if not corrected. To stop or prevent fermentation of the food contents of the stomach and to neutralize the acid, and render it bland and harmless, a teaspoonful of bisurated magnesia, probably the best and most effective corrector of acid stomach known, should be taken in a quarter of a glass of hot or cold water immediately after eating, or whatever wind or acidity Is felt. This stops the fermentation, and neutralizes the acidity in a few mo ments. Fermentation, wind and acid ity are dangerous and' unnecessary. Stop or prevent tlieni b.v the use of a proper antacid, such as bisurated mag nesia, which can be obtained from any druggist and thus enable the stomach to do its work properly without being hindered by poisonous gas and danger ous acids.— M.

As the State of Pennsylvania is divided Into dis tricts, and the districts are limited in number to three, each district Includ ing many counties, great hardship and expense must necessarily fall upon the man who Is charged with such an offense, whether he be afterward con victed or not, and I hope through this statement to save trouble to somebody in this State who feels disposed to shoot wild water fowl In the Spring time. "Under Pennsylvania law wild ducks and other wild water fowl may be killed legally from the tlrst day of September to the 10th day of April next following. Under the national law, which controls and supersedes Ptate law, wild water fowl can be killed in Pennsylvania only from the first of September to and Including the 15th day of December next following.

Quarantine Eighty Homes in West End Eighty homes in the Fifth and Sixth wards were quarantined and the Ver beke school building was ordered closed by the Bureau of Health and Sanitation this morning because of an outbreak of scarlet fever among the school children. The majority of the cases are mild in form. Dr. J. M. J. Raunlck, city health officer, says he Is taking this stringent action to prevent a serious epidemic throughout the city. One of the teachers of the Verbeke school is quarantined with the rash, which is the prevalent symptom among the children. She is Miss Maria C. Hlg glns, 109 South Third street. A picture show and an uptown res taurant will be affected by the quar antine regulations, as children belong ing to the families of the proprietors have symptoms of the disease. Dr. Raunick said to-day that all children at the addresses quarantined will be excluded from the other school buildings of the city, so that this will check the spread of the disease. Be fore the school Is reopened a thorough fumigation of the house and clothing and a disinfecting bath will be given the children. More than fifty cases were examined by the health authorities, and although most of the cases showed only one or (wo symptoms of the disease, such as fi rash, fever, sore throat or bad cold, half a dozen pronounced cases were quarantined.
