WHAT DYSPEPTICS
SHOULD EAT
A PHYSICIAN'S ADVICE
"Indigestion and practically all forms
of stomach trouble are. nine times out
of ten. due to acidity: therefore stomach
sufferers should, whenever possible,
avoid eating food that is acid in its na
ture, or which by chemical action in the
stomach develops acidity. Unfortu
nately, such a rule eliminates most
foods which are pleasant to the taste I
as well as those which are rich in
blood, flesh and nerve building proper
ties. This is the reason why dyspep
tics and stomach sufferers are usually
so thin, emaciated and lacking in that
vital energy which can only come from
a well fed body. For the benefit of
those sufferers who have been obliged
to exclude from their diet all starchy,
sweet or fatty food, and are trying to
keep up a miserable existence on gluten
products. I would suggest that you
should try a meal of any food or foods
which you may like, in moderate
amount, taking immediately afterwards
a teaspoonful of bisurated magnesia in
a little hot or cold water. This will
neutralize any acid which may be pres
ent, or which may be formed, and in
stead of the usual feeling of uneasi
ness and fullness, you will find that
your food agrees with you perfectlv.
Bisurated magnesia is doubtless the
best food corrective and antacid
known. It has no direct action on
the stomach; but by neutralizing the
acidity of the food contents, and thus
removing the source of the acid irrita
tion which inflames the delicate stom
ach lining, it does more than could pos
sibly be done by any drug or medicine.
As a physician, I believe in the use of
medicine whenever necessary, but I
must admit that I cannot see the sense
of dosing an inflamed and irritated
stomach with drugs instead of getting
rid of the acid—the cause of all the
trouble. Get a little bisurated mag
nesia from your druggist, eat what vou
want at your next meal, take some of
the bisurated magnesia as directed
above, and see if I'm not right." Ad
vertisement.

IMPRESSIVE SCENES
! HI FLAG TRANSFER
[Continued From First Pago]
the State Capitol. It was a sight
which will remain with the thousands
who beheld it as long as memory
holds.
The clouds which had threatened
showers when the color bearers came
up the center of State street between
the open ranks of soldiers of two wars
and young militiamen had passed
away when the veterans rose in their
places for the Inst trooping of the
.colors. The orators had stirred the
audience to frequent applause and
when the benediction had been pro
nounced, the 350 men who had borne
the standards in the procession rose
in their places, each man holding up
his regiment's tiag. Governor Tener
waved his hands and from all over
the stand and from the thousands of
men, women and children gathered in
the park there came a cheer. A few
minutes later General Stewart had
given the command and the men of
the First Defenders and the Signal
Corps were leading the last march
with the colors.
The silk encased standards shone in
the rays of the declining sun as they
were borne up the steps of the Capi
tol. some of them wavered In the
hands of the aged bearers and then
they passed under the great bronze
effigy o William Penn over the door
way to be placed wjiere they can be
seen of all men knd testify to the va
lor and the glory of Pennsylvania's
sons.
Prominent Men of
Pennsylvania Were .
Bearers of Colors
Two of the men who attracted at
tention in the line of flag bearers were
Major M. A. Gherst, of Reading, one
of the big bankers of that city, and
Colonel T. Hayes Grier, former super
intendent of public printing. Both
carried their flags, the Major having
one of the Fourteenth Cavalry. Luther
Seiders, of Reading, carried the flag
of Rickett's famous battery.
Captain W. W. Waliace, who carried
the flag of his regiment after nine
men had been shot down at Antie
tam, was one of the interested spec
tators.
George W. Hoch, of Canonsburg,
formerly of this city, was given a lib
eral hand as he went along the streets.
He carried the flag of the Eighteentn
Cavalry.
Judge Harry White, of Indiana, 8*
years young, marched in the parade
yesterday. He was chairman of the
committee which arranged for the
transfer of the flags from the regi
ments to the State in 1866.
Major I. B. Brown, former Secretary
of Internal Affairs, marched, carry
ing the colors of his regiment.
Ex-Senator Thomas Hayes, of But
ler, and Thomas Evans, of Pittsburgh,
survivors of the One Hundred and
Third Regiment, came here to see
their standard again. This flag was
badly torn by shot at Fair Oaks, when
its tassel was cut off.
Inspiring Sight
Says Public Ledger
in Its Accounts
The Philadelphia Ledger to-day con
tains the following account of the
ceremonies at the Capitol:
"The war-torn, bullet-riddled battle
flags of Pennsylvania, one carried
through the campaigns of the second
struggle with England; six carried on
unknown fields; 22 through the Span
ish War and the Orient, and 322 held
aloft in the great American conflict be
tween the States, were transferred to
day from the State Library building to
the bronze and crystal cases in the
rotunda of the State Capitol. They
were carried through the principal
streets by Grand Army veterans—
wherever possible by the color bearer
who bore them in battle.
"Robert J. Walker, of the signal
corps, carried the identical banner
with which he wigwagged at General
command on the bloody
field of Kenesaw Mountain the historic
order, "Hold the fort, for I am com
ing."
"P. M. Yeager. of Reading, carried
the first flag attacked north of the
Potomac in the Civil War. It was
stoned as the First Defenders passed
through Baltimore the day before the
general riot following the advent of
the Massachusetts troops to the same
city.
"The flag of the One Hundred and
Fiftieth Pennsylvania Regiment, with
its unique history, was in the parade,
but was not carried by the last man
who waved it over a battlefield. He
fell at Gettysburg. The banner was
captured and was the first Union
trophy to reach Richmond. It was
presented to the Confederate president
with much ceremony. After the cap
ture of Mr. Davis the flag was found
in his trunk and it was returned to
Pennsylvania by order of the War De
partment.

Aged Men Wept When
They Received Their
Regimental Flags
The Philadelphia Record in its de
scription of the event says:
"It was the most inspiring sight
witnessed in the Capitol since the re
turn of the veterans at the close of
the Civil war. The ceremony of the
retu. of the old flags to Pennsylvania
by the men who bore them from bat
tle to Philadelphia, on July 4 1866,
was a more imposing one", but not
more impressive. Then the men who
carried the flags were young, jubilant
and full of vim. To-day there was not
a man among the entire 400 flagbear
ers who was not three score, and there
was one group of twelve men whose
united years numbered 1010, or more
than 84 years each.
"In their ranks were men promi
nent in every walk of life. Among
them was Judge Harry White, of In
diana. whose retention in Libby prison
precipitated a deadlock in the Penn
sylvania Senate. There was General
John Taylor, of the old reserves; Sec
retary of Agriculture Critchfleld, for
mer Secretary of Internal Affairs Ma
jor Isaac B. Brown and many men of
mark in all walks of life.
"When they gathered at the State
Library to receive the flags from the
old flag room there were many affect
ing scenes. Some of the old boys
grasped the emblems of liberty af
fectionately and kissed them rever
ently, as tears ran down their cheeks.
Some could not refrain from cheering
as flagstaffs were placed in their hands
and all hung on to their prizes as if
th<- were the most precious things on
earth.
"Grouped on the sidewalk in com
pany formation, fours front, the men
carrying the banners awaited the word
to march, and preceded by their es
cort of comrades and guardsmen, they
followed a short route to the Capitoi.
It was a warm day, an* the route was
cut as short as possible out of defer
ence to the infirmities of the men."
Impressive in All
of the Exercises
Says Phila. Press
The Philadelphia Press in its ac
count of the day's exercises says:
"Veterans of - regiments whose!
achievements form bright pages in
Pennsylvania history marched withj
their colors to-day for the last time i
and the battleflags of three wars were'
borne in triumphal procession through j
the streets of the State Capital as part I
of the ceremony attending their trans- j
fer from the State Museum to the
niches in the marble rotunda of the
Capitol. It was one of the most im
pressive ceremonies witnessed in Har
risburg since the days of the Civil war
when most of the standards which
figured in to-day's event were given
into the hands of regimental com
manders by Governor Andrew Gregg
Curtin. In many respects it surpassed
the notable dedication of the Capitol
and the perfect weather conditions
made it beyond comparison with the
inaugurations In cold and stormy
January. The passage of the flags
was marked by continuous cheering
and when the veterans bearing the
colors marched between the lines of
the escorting National Guardsmen and
veterans of the Civil and Spanish wars
in State street fronting the State house
the scene became inspiring and there
were tears in the eyes of veterans
and spectators.
"Many veterans were deeply mov
ed when they received their flags at
the Museum before the parade. It
was the first time some of them hail
seen them in years and one color
bearer of a Bucktail regiment cheer
ed as he was given the flag which
he had carried."
North Complimented
For His Stand For
the Transfer Bill
Among those who gathered at the
Capitol yesterday afternoon was Rep
resentative S. Taylor North, of Punx
sutawney, the chairman of the appro
priations committee of the last House
and the man who fought down the at
tack on the bill which made yester
day's celebration possible.
When the bill was reported out by
the appropriations committee a couple
of members made an attack on it,
asking why State money should be
used to pay for a ceremony. The
remarks Irritated Mr. North and he
arose and without even waiting for
recognition proceeded to declare that
as far as he was concerned he pro
posed to see that the funds were pro
vided to honor the men in blue and
the flags they hore. As a result the
Houoe passed the bill and Governor
Tner signed it as a matter of course.
Some of the people connected with
the last Legislature recalled what Mr.
North had done and congratulated
him upon the success of the event.
Exercises Will Not
Be Forgotten by
Those Attending
Not only were the exercises held at
the Capitol thoroughly in keeping with
the spirit of the occasion, but from
first to last they moved like clock
work—on time and without a delay.
The speeches of the Governor and
Chairman Martin led up to the bril
liant oration of Major Moses Veale, of
Philadelphia, whose utterances were
tilled with the glory of Pennsylvania
and .ter sons.
When the exercises were opened by
the singing of Pennsylvania two huge
n tional and State Hags were broken
out above the veterans and 100 school
children sanp\ One of the notable
features was the song of ennsylva
nia's battle flags written by Mrs. Mabel
Cronise Jones and splendidly spng by
Abner W. Hartman with a children's
chorus. The program closed with
"America" and then while the na
tional anthem was played the veter
ans of the First Defenders and other
regiments up to the Seventy-fifth, in
cluding the famous Reserves, marched
from their stand in single column,
passing the Governor and State offi
cials on the reviewing stand and
through a lane made by State police
men through masses of people into the
Capitol. The bands played war time
tunes as the roll of the regiments,
I troops and batteries was called and to
the air of "Tramp, Tramp, Tramp"
and "Marching Through Georgia" and
"When Johnny Comes Marching
Home" the veteran bearers moved
with quickened steps in the rays of the
setting sun on their last parade.
Dixon Prepared For
the Well Being of
the Aged Color Men
Just to illustrate the thoroughness
with which the preparations to take
the best of care of the veterans were
made it may be stated that Dr. Sam
uel G. Dixon, commissioner of health,
had sufficient people and equipment
to look after fifty men. He had a
iirst aid station for men and one for
women in the Capitol and two automo
biles and an ambulance with full corps
of physicians and nurses were with
the parade.
At the Capitol doctors with chev
rons bearing the familiar green key
stone were about, ready to extend aid,
and no sooner had the veterans finish
ed their march than boys went from
the Health Department with pitchers
of water and sanitary drinking cups
among the men.
Nothing better could have been
planned than the work of the Health
Department and some one said the
preventive work was so thorough that
it included the day. The doctors and
nurses had practically nothing to do.
Notable Among the
Marchers Was the
Venerable Taylor
Prominent in the line were General
J. F. Taylor, the first commander of
the First Pennsylvania or Juniata
Cavalry, who is eighty-eight and who
was supported by Colonel David Gard
ner, who succeeded him in command
of that regiment, and F. C. Rohm,
sergeant of Capitol police; Color Bear
er Lukens with the flag of the One
Hundred and Fiftieth, captured at
Gettysburg and recovered when Jef
ferson Davis was taken; Captain John
W. Morrison with the flag of the One
Hundredth and many men prominent
in veterans' affairs, some of whom
wore the caps and coats which they
had when mustered out. The flags of
the Twenty-ninth, Geary's command,
and the Seventy-third, which was car
ried through a rebel prison, attracted
much attention.
In the Spanish war division Harry
Cundall, of Washington, Pa., carried
the colors of the Tenth Pennsylvania
which he bore throughout the Philip
pine campaign and wore his tropical
uniform and the flag carrier he used
in Luzon.
Stewart Arranged
the Plans For the
Notable Ceremony
■ Much of the success of the cere
monies attending the transfer of the
flags is due to Adjutant General
Thomas J. Stewart. The general con
ceived the idea of having the flags
taken from the Museum to the ro
tunda of the Capitol in place of statues
and his suggestion was first published
in the Telegraph about Decoration
day, 1909.
The general was secretary of the
commission in charge of the arrange
ments. which means that he ran the
whole thing, and he worked early and
late in the details, B. W. Demming and
Major Frank D. Beary rendering him
capable assistance as did everyone else
connected with the Adjutant General's
Department.
The general was a veteran of the
war and might have carried the flag
of his regiment, but he stood aside and
when he marched by the file leader
of the last division into the granite

The change in prices was made pos

opened several weeks ago and since
then the commissioner has been work

home, according to the wife's story
to the court, was the cause of the
marital upheaval. Sherk, she said,
quite plainly demonstrated that he
thought a whole lot of the cousin.
Among other things he hold her, she
said, was a desire to divorce her in
payment of SI,OOO. Sherk was directed
to pay his wife $4 weekly.
Byrem Rosner was ordered to pay
his pretty wife Maude sls a month.
She is a Wiconisco girl. She declared
Byrem "treated her just awful,"
wouldn't work, and liked to run around
with the other girls and boys.
David Brady was b fore the court
'at the instance of his wife Emma.
What hair David still has is silvery.
He tentatively rubbed his bald spot
as he stood before the court.
"Why don't you behave?" demand
ed Judge Kunkel.
"Well, I'm old enough, Mr. Kunkel,
Your Honor."
"Vou are," agreed the court dryly.
Another tough luck story was told
by Mrs. Tim Sullivan whose Tim was
directed to pay $4 weekly. The house
of Sullivan has its ups and downs most
every court. Tim just now it appears
is in jail on a charge of assault and
battery, Mrs. Tim, whose maiden
name is Mary, serving as the assault
and-batteree. Mary had to be brought
from the jail o appear, however. She
is doing a few' months on a charge of
conducting a disorderly house.
Because Earl Houser was only 17,
young and stprightly, he ought to be
allowed a little freedom even though
he is married, was the opinion voiced
by his parents when Earl was arraign
ed to answer for failure to support
his pretty sixteen-year-old wife and
tiny baby. Both father and mother
thought there wasn't any harm in
Earl's going out for a dance now and
then.
"Yes, indeed, six years ago, I did
go right to his house and took my
daughter away because she was only
fifteen years old and he stole her."
That was the admission Mrs. Edna
Keim's mother made to Senator E. E.
Beidleman, counsel for Erwin, when
the latter was arraigned for desertion
and nonsupport. It appeared from
counsel's explanation that the two
ran off to Hagerstown and were mar
ried and upon their return the angry
mother had promptly taken her
daughter home.
"For a Woman's Only a Woman"
If the choice he left to him, John
Heiney frankly admitted on the wit
ness stand that he'll take liquor for
his every time rather than live with
his wife.
"He's a drinker," the wife declared
pointedly.
"Not so. She's the drinker of this
family," retorted Heiney.
"Why I'm a Christian and I only
want you to join church and let booze
alone and then I'll be willing to put
up with you. You must decide be
tween booze—and me."
"Huh," returned Heiney, "me for
booze."

creams. It isn't unpleasant arid the
prompt relief afforded is very wel
come, particularly when the eruption
is accompanied with itching.
