INSURING
GOOD DIGESTION
Importance of Preventing Food Fer
mentation In Stomach
("rood digestion usually means good
heslth. So long as the stomach does
its work properly disease can find no
lodgment in the human system; the liv
er. kidneys and intestines will perform
their work perfectly and remain In
perfect health; but permit anything to
Interfere with the proper digestion of
food, an unending train of troubles la
set in motion. About the only thing
that will upset the stomach and Inter
fere with digestion is an excess of acid,
usually caused by food fermentation.
Food fermentation is due to chemical
action in the food Itself. This fermen
tation causes the formation of gas, or
wind, as well as add, resulting in the
unnatural distention of the stomach
and the burning by the acid of the
delicate lining of the stomach.
Medicine and tonics cannot relieve
this condition—they usually make It
worse. The fermentation and acid are
to blame and these must be overcome
and prevented by taking after meals
a teasnoonful of blsurated magnesia
in a little hot or cold water. Physi
cians recommend blsurated magnesia
especially because It stops and pre
vents fermentation of food and neu
tralizes the acid instantly, making it
bland and harmless, without Irritat
ing the stomach in any way. Get a
little blsurated magnesia from your
druggist and try it the next time your
food ferments and upsets your stom
ach Note how quickly the acid is neu
tralized and how soon you forget that
you have such a tiling as a stomach.—

Owes Her Life to
This Lung Medicine
Sufferers from Consumption should
take the trouble to investigate what
Eckman' Alterative has accomplished
in restoring others to health. Read
this:—
Griffith, Lake Co., Ind.
"Gentlemen:—About Sept. 10th, 11)08,
my mother-in-law was taken sick
with Catarrhal Pneumonia, which de
veloped into Tuberculosis. In January,
when Rev. Wm. Berg, of St. Michael's
Church, at Schererville, Tnd., prepared
her for death, he recommended that I
get Eckman's Alterative, and see if it
would not give her some relief. The
attending physician declared she had
Consumption and was beyond all medi
cal aid. Practically without hope for
recovery, I insisted that she try the
Alterative, which she did. I am glad
to say that she soon began to improve.
Now she works as hard as ever, weighs
twenty pounds heavier than she ever
did before she took sick and Is in good
health.' (Abbreviated.)
(Affidavit) .TOS. GRIMMER.
Eckman's Alterative is most effica
cious in bronchial catarrh and severe
throat and lung affections and upbuild
ing the system. Contains no harmful
or habit-forming drugs. Accept no suh
stitues. Sold by leading druggists.

It is foolish to buy

have insured the job last

Repairs are very trou

Blackheads Go Quick
by This Sample Method
Blackheads big ones or little ones
—soft ones or hard ones—on any part
of the body, go quick by a simple
method that just dissolves thenf. To
do this get about two ounces of pow
dered neroxin from your druggist
sprinkle a little on a hot, wet sponge
—rub over the blackheads briskly for
a few seconds—and wash off. You'll
wonder where the blackheads have
gone. The powdered neroxin and the
hot water have Just dissolved them.
Pinching and squeezing blackheads
only open the pores of the skin and
leaves them open and unsightly—and
unless the blackheads are big and
soft they will not come out. while
the simple application of neroxin and
water dissolves them right out. leav
ing the skin soft and the pores In
their natural condition. You can get
powdered neroxin at any drug store
and if you arc troubled with these
unsightly blemishes you should cer
tainly try this simple method. Ad

PHILLIP J. VETTER,
Grand Marshal
The Rebekah assembly held the cen
ter of the Odd Fellow stage this morn
ing and even the grand lodge had to
take up a considerable part of the
morning session with framing an
amendment constitution for the con
sideration of the auxiliary order.
The main point in the'new code of
government is the direction, according
to this as yet unaccepted constitution,
that the Rebekah assembly in future
be held at a separate time than the
j sessions of the grand lodge. The rea
son, as unofficially given by the grand
lodge was that the growth of the or
der made it difficult to secure proper
accommodations in many cities when
the two orders met at the same time.
I The new constitution also provided a
tee of twenty-five cents perannum to
be paid by each member for the sup
port of the Rebekah homes.
For the first time in the history of
the order the grand officers of the In
dependent Order of Odd Fellows paid
a visit to the Rebekah assembly carry
ing with them the amended constitu
tion. But the auxiliary order, after a
warm debate, determined not to ac
cept the first provision, and accord
ingly the constitution will have to go
back this afternoon to the grand
lodge session for reconsideration.
The grand lodge convened again at
9 o'clock this morning. Financial re
ports occupied the sessions. An ex
penditure during the ensuing year of
$36,894 was authorized, but the as
sessments to cover it were not in
creased.
To-night's events include the ex
emplification of the third degree by
jthe degree team of Shamokin lodge.

New York, May 20.—Surgeons at

Carl Schmidt, who was brought there
from a Bowery lodging house, discov

clothing containing a total of $3,380
and several bankbooks showing that

Schmidt, who is 78 years old, had
