10 HOW TO PREVENT ACID STOMACHS AND FOOD FERMENTATION By ■ Stonmch Specialist As a specialist who Ims spent many years In the study and treatment of stomach troubles 1 have been forced t*o the conclusion that most people who complain of stomach trouble possess stomachs that are absolutely healthy and normal. The real trouble, that which causes all the pain and difficulty, is acid in the stomach, usually due to, or aggravated by. food fermentation. Acid Irritates the delicate lining of the stomach and food fermentation causes wind which distends the stomach ab normally. causing that full bloated feel ing. Thus both acid and fermentation interfere with and retard the process of digestion. The stomach Is usually healthy and normal, but irritated al most past endurance by these foreign elements—acid and wind . In all such cases —and they comprise over !»0 per cent, of all stomach difficulties—the tlrst and only step necessary is to neu tralize the acid and stop the fermenta tion by taking in a little warm or cold water Immediately after eating, from one to two teaspoonfuis of blsurated magnesia. which is doubtless the best and only really effective antacid and food corrective known. The acid will he neutralized and the fermentation stopped almost Instantly, and your stomach will at once proceed to digest the i'ood in a healthy, normal manner. Be sure to ask your chemist for the bisurated magnesia, as 1 have found other forms utterly lacking in its pe culiarly valuable properties.—F. J. G.— Advertisement. IF BACK HURTS BEGIN ON SALTS Flush your Kidneys occasionally if you eat meat regularly No man or woman who eats meat regularly can make a mistake by flush ing the kidneys occasionally, says a ■well-known authority. Meat forms uric acid, which clogs the kidney pores so they sluggishly filter or strain only part of the waste and poisons from the blood; then you get sick. Nearly all rheumatism. headaches, liver trouble, nervousness, constipation, diz ziness. sleeplesness. bladder disorders come from sluggish kidneys. The moment you feel a dull ache in the kidneys or your back hurts, or if the urine is cloudy, offensive, full of sediment, irregular of passage or at tended by a sensation of scalding, eet about four ounces of Jad Salts from any reliable pharmacy and take a tablespoonful in a glass of water be fore breakfast for a few days and vour kidneys will then act fine. This famous salts is made from the acid of grapes and lemon juice, combined with lithia, and has been used for generations to flush clogeed kidneys and stimulate them to activity, also to neutralize the acid in urine so it no longer causes irritation, thus ending bladder dis orders. Jad Salts is inexpensive and cannot injure; makes a delightful effervescent lithia-water drink which all regular meat eaters should take now and then to keep the kidneys clean and the blood pure, thereby avoiding serious kidney complications.—Advertisement. ; PEOPLE-:- !| : OF ALL AGES : £££ :: sSn3£|fc»t.l BwlT«•» a# portly b«j :: SLI ;; 1 rt «a ■■ *• , | I Poa't «*tj lint M-) —u, ar I' 1 riiiwiH «• aaa*a ta nM < < 1 IMtUM. | | ' Hif.

Bennet The markets have weather signs which their followers watch closely as the seafarer does the skies. Increase In activity as prices make progress, either up or down, is an indication that the movement will continue, while di minishing public Interest usually means the reverse. Quite as much Importance is, therefore, ascribed to the dwindling volume of business on the Stock Ex change as to the fact that prices have in the main lost ground. It is one of many reasons to believe we are pass ing a bump In a constructive period. When world-wide scarcity of capital unloosed the forces of reaction In the fall of 1912, it reversed a business situa tion that was expanding despite clear indications of restrictive politics and legislation that have been only partial ly verified Business men, plagued by uncertainties and harassing policies that it seemed never would end, had gritted their teeth and resolved to en dure what they could not avoid. Much that was then uncertain is now known; the Wilson administration has shown a more kindly disposition to business had hoped from any administration within sight, and monetary stringency Is In the past instead of the future. Liquidation in many lines of business has been completed, especially in se curities. and altogether the situation, though beclouded in some directions, is far sounder now than eighteen months ugo. The way to make money in se curities with any reasonable certainty is over long swings, and if we are re entering the constructive stage, the swing of the market will be upward. The man whose bearings are steady over the humps is the one who will later realize the best profits from his investments. Experience shows that securities are the first and labor one of the last com modities to reflect a change In the eco nomic situation. Ixist week the Penn sylvania Railroad and the New York Central laid oft about 10 per cent, of their hands and reduced the hours of others. This is liquidation of labor with a vengeance. It Is a deplorable result of a deplorable necessity, but the reasons for It are so well tinier stood that no one was surprised; the shrinkage of ri.ilroad revenues com pelled it. and this has become an old story. This is one way that the people must pay the piper for their collective attitude toward the railroads through the InU estate Commerce Commission and taxation. Fifty representative railroads report ed for January a decrease in net earn ings of 25.8 per cent. This loss was despite drastic efforts to retrench, and Is the largest shrinkage since the panic times of seven years ago. Expendi tures on mantenance of way were cut over 0 per cent., and those of equip ment 3 per cent., which contrast with 10 per cent, larger taxes. News of the day tells of curtailment in train ser vice on many lines, a reduction in the Panhandle dividend, and passing of the dividend entirely on Railway Steel Springs, so that labor has company in its misery. In actual fact, labor Is but a recruit to the ranks of those who feel the pinch of railroad conditions; the investor was there first. A thoughtful follower of the news from Washington tells me that the In terstate Commerce Commission is more likely to impose charges on shippers for tap line and other terminal services than to sanction an increase in freight rates. This might well be a body blow to some of the large Industrials, such as the Steel Corporation, for example, unless, they, in turn, succeed in pass ing the burden to the consumers, where it would be so distributed as to be but little felt. If the community at large were to be charged for railroad service proportionately to the advance in com modities, natural and general economic good would result. Will Washlntonian genius discover a new way to confer benefits with one hand and withdraw them with the other? First among the great companies that generate electricity by water-power to list its shares on the New York Stock Exchange is the Montana Power Com pany, which took this step last week. This is the company that has contract ed to supply the St. Paul Railroad with power for its mountain division and furnishes the current used in the coppei mines around Butte. Its system, ex tending over the greater part of the State, is a good example of the wide range of territory brought within transmission distance of central sta tions by the development of recent years In the electrical art. The com mon stock pays 2 per cent., and, sell ing around 50, is at the highest price yet reached. The same is true of the 7 per cent, preferred arourd 102. Until very recently" both stocks were quoted five points or m-ore below present fig ures, which seems *•> indicate that list ing a stock is worth something to it from a market standpoint. Collterally, It helps explain some of the notable bargain often found among unlisted in vestments. So far during 1914 increased or initial dividends have been declared by about a dozen public-utility companies. The term "public utilities" in an Investment sense includes lighting and electric power and traction properties. Some very interesting figures on electrical development have just been given out by the Federal Census Bureau; these are compiled at tive-year intervals and cover the years 1902, 1907 and 1912. During 1912, electric operating com panies earned $880,000,000 gross, an In crease of 40,69 per cent, and 164.16 per per cent., as compared with 1907 and 1902 respectively, while the output in kilowatt hours gained 368 per cent, over 1902 and 165 per cent, over 1907. In creasing values for electrical securi ties have substantial basis. Under the recently announced plan of reorganization, the American Water Works and Guarantee Company be comes again a water supply and public utility system. It cuts loose from the irrigation properties that wrecked it bo far as obligation for their debts is concerned, but the stockholders have a DO YOUR CHILDREN . HEED BUILDING DP?

The senior securities of the New Water Works and Guarantee Company will probably become sound Investments, th-ough dividends on the common stock seem rather remote Current report fixes the number of Federal reserve banks at twelve, all the act allows. Boston and Philadelphia, as well as New York, It seems, will have banks which detracts, of course, from New York's prestige as a banking center through depriving It of reserve privileges for some of its richest tribu tary sections. I believe that the Fed eral Reserve act Is based on most that is good In the world's chief commercial systems, but the decentralization of re serves is not within this limit. In no other country, however, are important commercial interests so widely dis tributed, geographically, as In the Unit ed States, so the experiment Is based on untried conditions.
