The Contents of An Acid Stomach Should Be Neutralized

Medical authorities everywhere
are now practjcally agreed that
nearly nine-tenths of the cases of
stomach trouble, dyspepsia, indi
gestion, heartburn, sour stomach,
gastric catarrh, bloating, nausea,
etc., are caused not by a lack of
digestive juices or by imperfect
digestive organs, but to an ex
cessively acid condition of the
stomach.
Nearly everyone who has stom
ach trouble, they say. carries
about a f-'lasatul or more of this
powerful hydrochloric acid in
their stomach which is constantly
irritating and inflaming the deli
cate stomach lining, souring their
l'ood, creating gas on the stom
ach, delaying digestion and caus

frequently mistaken for dyspopsia
and Indigestion.

Scoutmasters to Be
Given Thorough Course
in Work of Organization
Information for a course in the
Scoutmaster' Siooi is be
ing forwarded from th National
Headquarters In New York City, to
the local council of the Boy Scouts
of America. This course is for the
benefit of the new scoutmasters and
for those who wish to take up the
study of the Boy Scout movement.
The training school will be In
charge of the Scout Executive J. 11.
Stine. Scoutmaster Garfield McAl
lister will assist the Scout Executive.
The purpose of the course is to
give a general knowledge of the fol
lowing subjects: "Aim of the Scout
Movement." "What Scouting Means,"
"Things Scouts Should Know," "How
to Become a Scout," "The Boy Scout
Organization," "Scout Oath," "Scout
Law," "Tenderfoot," "Second Class
and First Class Requirements,"
"Merit Badges," "Badges and Re
wards." "Knots Every Scout Should
Know" and the "Compass."
fical dlgestents, the acid in the
stomach should be sweetened or
neutralized with a little magnesia
—not the ordinary commercial
magnesia carbonate, citrate, oxides
or milks but pure bisuratcd
magnesia which can be obtained
from G. A. Gosgas or druggists
anywhere either in the form of
5-grain tablets or powder. A cou
ple of the tablets or a teaspoon
ful of the powder in a little water
right after eating will neutralize
all the excess acid in the stomach
and prevent t(s formation, wi'.i
soothe, cool and heal the sore,
burning and irritated stomach lin
ing and the stomach will then
eapily digest. Its meals without
pain or trouble of any kind.
Blstirated Magnesia, unlike most
forms of magnesia, is not used as
a laxative and is harmless to the
stomach. It is used daily by
thousands of "acid stomach" peo
ple who now enjoy their meals
with no more fear of indigestion.

Central Railroad Strike
May Be Long Struggle
Wilkes-Barre, Pa., Sept. 18. —The
eight hund.red men in the Ashley
shops of the Central Railroad of New
Jersey who struck yesterday met to
day and prepared for a long struggle..
The strikers have decided to hold out
for Increased wages and . seniority
rights.
The men walked out because they
allege officials .of- the company dis
criminated against union men and
refused to carry out the terms of a
verbal agreement.
C. E. Chambers, superintendent of
motive power, has made a statement
for the company in which he alleges
that he has solicited meetings with
the men and that they have refused
to confer. He denies all the charges
mu<)e by the strikers. No arrange
ments were made to-day for a meet
ing of officials and strikers.

N. W. SMITH
Reports ln railroad circles to-day
connected the names of two well
known officials as being slated for
a trip to France. One name men
tioned was that of N. W. Smith, su
perintendent of the Middle Division
of the Pennsylvania Railroad, at Al
toona, and the other, J. Barclay ,
l'isher, a former Harrisburger, now
superintendent of freight transporta
tion with headquarters ln Philadel
phia.
Local officials heard of probable
appointments to assist W. W. Atter
bury, vice-president now in France,
but know nothing as to any official
selection. It was said that both offi
cials named above were considered
good men for the work abroad. They
have long been recognized as organ
izers. The Philadelphia Ledger to
day says:
, May Bo More Than Two
'Two and possibly more high offi
cials of the Pennsylvania Railroad,
it is rumored ln. railway circles, have
been asked by the Government to
accept commissions as assistants to
|W. W. Atterbury, vice-president of
the company, who is in France ln
charge of transportation for the
American expeditionary forces.
"The rumor could not be confirm
ed or denied at the offices of the
Pennsylvania Railroad. It is thought
that Mr. Atterbury personally asked
for assistants in tho work of re
building the railway lines demolish

board Air Line freight clerks' strike,
In progress ten days, ended to-day
when the men returned to work un

cipally the wage question;

CAPT. J. BARCLAY FISHER
of France, and that he specified a
number of men whose technical and
executive ability would bo of special
assistance to him.
"A dispatch from Washington
hinjed that the appointment will be
made public from that city in a few
days. The railroad officials, how
ever, are apparently decided upon
the adoption of the same policy of
silence it employed when Mr. At
terbury's appointment was first men
tioned."
Well Known Here
Both officials are well and favor
ably known in liarrisburg. Super
intendent Smith in his official trips
visits this city frequently. Captain
J. Barclay Fisher, as he is known
here, began his railroad career in
liarrisburg, working hiß way up
from a clerk, and filling positions of
telegrapher, dispatcher and train
master. lie was later Superintend
ent of thp New York division.
lie was a lieutenant in the Span
ish-American War, serving under
the lato Captain Howard L. Calder
in Company I, Fourth Regiment.
Later ho was captain of Company
D, City Grays, this city, and was
considered an efficient military offi
cer.
Inquiries at Altoona brought the
I same answer as here and in IJhila
-1 dolphin. No information was given
i as to the probable appointments, and
• Superintendent Smith knew nothing
I regarding his probable appointment.
I "It was news to him,' he said.
of the Middle Division, who had
been on the sick list continues to im
prove.
The next meeting of the Friend
ship and Co-operative Club will be
held Thursday night September 27.
M. T. Robinson has returned from
Philadelphia where he was in con
sultation with Brotherhood officials.
Finds It Unwise to
Deposit Whisky on Corner
Without Any Guard
In these days of mounting p'rices,
it is anything but wise to deposit
one's supply of whisky by a lamp-,
post without guards and adequate!
protection. At least, such is the
opinion of John B.ady, who appear
ed before Alderman aLndls in police
court yesterday aft^'noon.
Brady claims Philadelphia as his
home. He had been working at the
aviation plant at Middletown, and
feeling rather under the weather,
came to this city for some medicine.
Brady's medical ad%'lser evidently
gave him the wrong prescription, for
bv the time he had taken about half
of the contents ut a quart bottle, ho
left the remainder of his medicine
together with most of his clothes
beside a lamp post.
Brady was quite humilated about
the whole matter, and told the Judge
there was a good job awaiting him at
Marietta. Judge Landis advised him
to waste no time in grabbing the
position.

cil spoke last night at a meeting of
