HOW TO PREVENT ACID STOMACHS AND FOOD FERMENTATION B.T a .Htmnneh Sprrlnllat As a specialist who has spent many years in the study and treatment of ■itomach troubles. I have been forced to the conclusion that most people who complain of stomach trouble possess stomachs that are absolutely healtliv and normal. The real trouble, that which causes all the pain and difficulty, is excessive acid In the stomach, ag gravated by food fermentation. Hyper acidity irritates the delicate lining of the stomach and food fermentation causes wind which distends tin stom ach abnormally, causing that full bloated feeling. Thus both acid and fermentation interfere with and re tard tile process of digestion. The stomach is usually healthy and normal. I• ut Irritated almost past endurance by these foreign elements—acid and wind. In all such cases and they comprise over 90 per cent, of all stomach diffi culties—the first and only step neces sary is to neutralize the acid and stop the fermentation by taking In a little warm or cold water Immediately after • atlng, from one to two teaspoonfuls of bisurated magnesia, which is doubt less the best and only renlly effective antacid and food corrective known. The add will be neutralized and the fermentation stopped almost instant ly, and your stomach will at once pro ceed to digest the food in a healthy, normal manner. Be sure to ask your druggist tor the bisurated magnesia, US 1 have found other forms utterly lacking In Its peculiarly valuable prop erties, —F, J. (3.—Adv, TUESDAY EVENING, FBI LI,S AND SIMPLICITY The tailor-made girl, who loves sim- J pie things, and the fluffy feminine girl, j fond of frills, may both be suited with : some of the clever neckwear designs I shown at the Woman's Exchange, Third | street at Herr. Collar and cuff sets of I sheer lawn, simply hemstitched, dainty , little frills of luce or net to stand high at the neck with edge touching the coiffure, and finished at the base of the throat with a band of black velvet, military effects, and the popular and becoming standing collars with full pleattngß in the back as well as the very useful and charming vestees are shown at prices from 25c and 50c up, and any of these dainty pieces of neck wear make most delightful Christmas gifts. FOR MIDWINTER WEAR The midwinter season has found os trich the most favored of millinery trimmings, and whether the picture hat is simply trimmed with a co quettish bunch of ostrich tips, droop ing over the edge, encircled with a graceful ostrich band, or lavishly trimmed with beautiful French plumes or uncurled ostrich, ostrich of some kind it must be, on both the large and small hats, and the Astrlch Store, Fourth ami Market streets, offers a line of ostrich novelties and trimmings which is large enough to meet any re quirements while the prices are small enough to suit every purse. Ostrich fancies and stick-ups to add a new touch to the "first'" hat are also fea tured in this special display. A MENU HELP Nothing is more wholesome than stewed fruits, and for breakfast, for a luncheon dessert, or served as the French like them, with a meat course, they are very tempting. However, there are many kinds of fruits to stew, and while some are tasteless and in sipid, others are fruity and delicious. Of course, evaporated fruits are the best, but in these, too, there are many different grades and qualities, but those offered by the Studebaker Gro cery Store, State and Second streets, are the best sort, maintaining the standard of excellence set by this store in all foodstuffs. These fruits are care fully ripened before being picked and have a delightful, rich, fruity flavor. BOXED PAPERS ."Oh, how lovely!" Is the natural ex clamation on seeing the beautiful boxes of stationery offered at the Central Book Store. 32 9 Market street, for holiday giving. One charming box contains rows of delicate mauve en velopes, with fine white paper gleam ing between, and on one side a row of gold-edged correspondence cards with envelopes to match. Another box dis closes pale blue tltilings, and indeed so many styles'are shown that any taste may be suited. The papers are the finest qualities and the Christmas boxes are unusually attractive. Mod erate prices are a feature of this dis play. PUBLIC SERVICE ~ ASKED TO REOPEN I Philadelphia People Want the Rate Cases Taken Up Once More Edwin M. Abbott, attorney for the | combined committee of the United i Business Men's Association of Phlla- I delphla and Commuters' Association In ! the proceeding before the Public Serv -1 ice Sommission in reference to in creased passenger fares, has filed with the commission this morning an appli cation on behalf of complainants for a rehearing, presenting the following reasons: | 1. That the limitation of the sale of I 100-trip individual commutation tickets I valid for a period of six months from I the date of issue, the rate charged for ' these tickets not to exceed 1 % cents a mile, is an unfair limitation and prac tically grants the desire of the rail ! roads to eliminate this form of trans portation completely. 2. That the suggestion of a maxi l mum rate of 1 \<s cents per mile is un | fair to the commuter, in that the for- I mer basis of comparative rates be -1 tween stations was never considered heretofore'on a mileage basis, and that under the supplemental schedules as | tiled upon a basis of 1 cents a mile I the. various commutation rates for the : 100-trip ticket have been advanced ( from 10 to 100 per cent, in many in ! stances. Ira B. Bixler, a passenger conductor ' on the Middle division of the Pennsyl i vania Railroad, and Elmer J. Stuckey, | a contractor, both residents of Camp ! Ilill. have lodged a complaint with the I commission against the refusal of the j United Electric Company, of Lemoyne, j to install service to complainants' resi liences unless complainants agree to ! pa.v in addition to the usual rates for service an annual charge of $5 per i year, which, the respondent alleges, is j the rental whiqh it will be required to | pay to the Bell Telephone Company | for use of its poles in stringing wires i from its present line to complainants' I residences. i The Mansfield State Normal School, of Mansfield, Pa., has filed with the commission a complaint against the Mansfield Water Company, alleging that its rate for service has lately been increased 50 per cent., which increase is alleged to be excessive, unjust and unreasonable. Central Students to Play Santa to Youngsters of the Nursery Home Professor Karl Richards spoke to the students of the Central High school at chapel this morning, urging them to provide a Christmas entertainment next Wednesday morning for the chil dren of the Nursery Home.

Lower, near Hogestown. Some Important Issues about farming will be discussed; HARRISBURG TELEGRAPH German March Music Brings Dead Goldiisk Back to Life "Es War Tot," but "Die Wacht Am Rhein" Just Wouldn't Let Him Stay That Way That "music liath to charm" has lons been admitted. But that mu sic should have power to charm the "dead" back to life has, hlthertofore, never been ventured. Music has just that power says Martin Gerhardt, a photographer, at ISO North Front street. And Mr. Martin is a truthful man. All this, however, is a degression. Here's the story: Early Saturday morning Martin noticed that one of his pretty gold fishes was floating face upwards—fig uratively speaking—in his big aquar ium. Much saddened Martin called his wife and his assistant into consulta tion to corroborate his opinion. Both PASSENGER RATES II EFFECT TODAY Round Trip Tickets Are Aban doned ; Commuters Gain and Lose in Change Increased passenger rates went into effect on all roads running into iiar rlsburg to-day. This includes com muters who ride to and l'rom the near by towns daily. The average inereaso os commutation tickets is twenty-five cents each month. No round trip tickets will be sold at any ticket otiice. This means an in crease of one dollar on the rate be tween Philadelphia and this city. By purchasing a round trip ticket for Philadelphia and return the price was $4.20. The new rate is $2.60 each way. The average rate per mile to and from local points will be two and a half cents per mile. West of Altoona and between New York, Pittsburg. Chi cago, St. Louis and other far western points there will be many increases. The 25-cent and 20-cent additions to the sixty-trip and forty-six-trip monthly tickets, respectively, will not amount to much with individual buy ers. 'Users of these tickets, however, win a point in not having to buy them on the first of the month. They will be good for thirty days from the date of issue. In brief the principal changes are: Bound-trip and fifty-trip tickets are abolished. Sixty-trip individual commutation tickets will be sold at flat advance of 25 cents over present prices. They will be good for one month from date of issue. Forty-six trip school individual commutation tickets will be sold at flat advance of 20 cents. They, too, will be good for one month from date of issue. Commissioners Stop Livestock Rate Change Washington, I_>. Dec. 15.—Pro posed increases in freight rates on live stock, fresh meats and packing house products from Chicago ,St. Louis apd other western entries to eastern cities were suspended yesterday by the Inter- State Commerce Commission until April 15 for Investigation. It is estimated that, had the Increas !ed rates been permitted to go into ef fect they would have yielded to the roads an added Income of nearly $lO,- 000.000 annually. The proposed ad vances affected live stock of all kinds, fresh meats and packing-house pro ducts of every description. On cattle, for Instance, the increase would have been from 28 to 33 cents a 100 pounds between Chicago and New York; on fresh meat, from 45 to 50 cents a 100 pounds, and on general packing-house products, from 30 to 33 cents a 100 pounds.

Movies of the war, real scenes from the front, nave the audience a chance to see what the suffering in Belgium really is. The pictures are from the Strand Syndicate. They show views of things that have, happened in Europe since the war started. Women and children leaving Belgium, armies in action and the blowing up of a bridgb by the Germans was vividly shown. Earlier Sisters Please The Farber Sisters proved a dainty pair of entertainers with their songs and dances. They came to Harrisburg direct front the Palace Theater, New York, where they enjoyed a long season. The Farber sisters Just had to sing, the audience found their songs so de lightful and catchy. A laughable skit was that of Loralne and Dudley, a funny portrayal of bachelor's kitchen. The feminine por tion of this sketch does some very clever character work, appearing as a Swedish girl and later as a young woman ho had had a quarrel with her fiance and wants to "make up." The closing feature, by Max Lehoen and M'lle Dupreece. is one of vaude ville's latest novelties. With an elabo rate stage setting, showing (lower gar dens, fountains, statuary, fireflies, moon and starlight by night, and a cosy home, a background was formed for an act that included singing, pleasing repartee between lovers and an intro duction of marvelous marksmanship. Shooting nj> poker chips with a rifle by means of looking glasses was part of M'lle Dupreece's work. The young woman is some shooter. Standing at the rear of the theater, she sniifTec' out a half-dozen candles with rifle balls. The act closes with a pleasing song, during which Max Lehoen plays an accompaniment on bells with the aid of bullets shot from repeating rifles. Committees The special committee from the home and foreign aid branch and the Junior Rotarlans, who had charge of the flowers and candy, included the following: Miss Anne McCormick. Mrs. Carl B. Kly and Miss Mary Robinson. The flowers were donated by the commit i tee, the candy by C. Studebaker, the lemonade by Mrs. W.
