What To Eat And
Prevent Indigestion
Vfc JJ
"Indigestion and practically all
forms of stomach trouble are, nine
times out of ten. due to acidity; there
fore stomach sufferers should, when
ever possible, avoid eating food that is
acid in its nature, or which by chemi
cal action in the stomach develops acid
ity. Those sufferers who have been ob
liged to exclude from their diet nil
starchy, sweet or fatty food, and are
trying to keep up a miserable existence
on gluten products, should try a meal
of any food or foods in moderate
amount, taking immediately afterwards
a teaspoonful of blsurated 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 uneasiness
and fullness, you will And that your
food agrees with you perfectly. Blsurat
ed magnesia is doubtless the best cor
rective and antacid known. It has di
rect action on the stomach; but by neu
tralizing the acidity of the food con
tents. and thus removing the source of
the acid irritation which inflames the
delicate stomach lining. It does more
than could possibly be done by any
drug or medicine. Do not dose an in
flamed and irritated stomach with
drugs but get rid of the acid—the cause
of all the trouble. Get a little blsurat
ed magnesia from your druggist, eat
what you want at your next liieal, take
some of the blsurated magnesia as di
rected above .and note remarkable re

TUESDAY EVENING,
COMPARES MOVIES
WITH THE DRAMA
Father Whalen Says Pictures
Will Never Take Place of
Legitimate Plays
WILL, W. WHALES
That the photoplay will never take
the place of the legitimate drama—
anymore, for Instance, than the soggy
beans that come from a can can dis
place the real, crisp, nutty kind that
come fresh from the vines.—is the
opinion of Father Will W. Whalen, a
former Uarrisburger.
Father Whalen is now in New
York supervising the rehearsals of his
comedy drama, "111-Starred Babble,"
billed to appear here soon with Juno
Congreve In the stellar role.
When asked what he thought of the
film version of his play. Father
Whalen said:
"It's a mighty good picture, but It
only shows that films can never take
the place of the legitimate drama. All
the rich comedy of the play, which is
nine-tenths fun, is absolutely lost on
the screen. It cost the film people
five reels to put on only the merest
thread of my spoken drama. The film
ends in a funeral. The production
closes with the heroine In her hus
band's arms. Pay your money and
take your pick. Jackie Saunders
made a pretty and lovable celluloid
heroine, but she conveyed only the
shadowy outines of the real 'Babble'
that June Congreve brings before
her audience. Give me beans fresh
from the vine, not canned stuff
that's porky. June Congreve is a star.
Jackie Saunders is only a stare. Miss
Congreve is as much the real thing as
her lace collar, ifiss Saunders—well,
she's celluloid."
THE KIND OF PIANO
You want is one that is truly orna
mental to the room, and also so sweet
toned that its melody pleases all hear
ers. You will find all this in the Price
& Teeple pianos. A rich, pure, sweet
tone, perfect action and a quick, re
sponsive touch. Prices are low and
the terms of payments liberal. Yohn

TAYLOR REPORTS
ON FIRE SERVICE
Commissioner Tells How Some
of Expert's Suggestions Have
Been Carried Out
How Harrisnurg's fire department
complies in some respects with the re
quirements suggested by the National
Board of Fire Underwriters efficiency
expert was reported upon to Council
this afternoon by City Commissioner
M. Harvey Taylor, superintendent of
parks and public property. Among
other things he reports that "ail of
the firehouses could be used for paid
systems."
The expert investigation had been
made at the request of the Chamber of
Commerce, with which the national
board had taken up the problem of
placing this city in the standard in
surance rating class. Harrisburg has
been placed in the class whicn re
quires a 30-cent "penalty" above the
standard rate of 20 cents.
The report covered several pages
and went into detail with reference to
the needs of the city in the way of fire
protection, botn from the water sup
ply as well as lire fighting standpoint.
Some fifty items were enumerated,
each counting a certain number of
points of percentage. If all the rec
ommendations can be carried out, the
city would be rated as "standard" and
the 30 cents penalty would be re
moved. The standard rate is 2 0 cents
per hundred. The report in question
dealt, of course, with the commercial
district risks.
To Look Into Duelling: Rates
Commissioner H. F. Bowman, super
intendent of public safety, to whom
the items relative to the betterment of
the water supply was referred, said he
wanted some more detailed information
as to the rates on the dwelling insur
ance rates.
"What I think most of the people
are concerned about," said he, "is the
rate on the dwelling houses and what
can be done to lower these rates. The
report submitted to Council deals more
particularly with the central or busi
ness districts."
Commissioner Taylor, to whom the
fire matters were referred, made a
prompt and thorough investigation of
the department and reports as follows
to the expert's questions;
"All firehouses could be used for
paid systems; the local department
has a supply of 15,000 feet of good,
serviceable hose on hand; while the
department is without testing appa
ratus. its only provisions for drying
hose are three wooden hose towers
and three inclined racks; the engines
will deliver 5,500 gallons per minute
in accordance with the fire expert's
suggestion."
Fire-Fighting Equipment
With reference to the fire-fighting
equipment of the firemen, Commis
sioner Taylor reports that the depart
ment is provided with everything rec
ommended "but hose gate hydrants
and waterproof covers, life belts,
torches, surgical kit and waterproof
cover." On each engine there is a
compound suction gauge and reliable
automatic relief valve, although the
recommendation that there be five
universal couplings for visiting engines
in emergencies could not be answered
affirmatively.
"All the combination hose wagons
can carry 1,000 feet of hose, as pointed
out by the expert," continued Mr. Tay
lor, "and all the reels can carry 800
feet.
"While we have no spare horses
as suggested," concluded the superin
tendent of the fire department, "we
do have a hook and ladder truck
equipped with a motor tractor."

A Careful Perusal Will Prove Its
Value to Every Harrisburg
Reader.
The average man is a doubter, and
there is little wonder that this is so.
Misrepresentations make people skep
tics. Now-a-days the public ask for
better evidence than the testimony of
| strangers. Here is proof which should
convince every Harrisburg reader:
1. Alfred Lewis, retired engineer,
1714 N. Fifth St., Harrisburg, says;
"I have taken Doan's Kidney Pills
for years whenever I have had any
trouble from my kidneys and they
have always given satisfaction. When
I was running an engine, I was bother
ed a great deal at times by my kid
eys. Whenever I had any of these
attacks a few doses of Doan's Kidney
Pills always relieved me."
