TWENTY-FIVE YEARS' EXPERIENCE To the person who finds it j necessary to go to an opto- | nietrist. the question natur • ally arises, "Who is the best?" During the twenty-live years that I have practiced Op tometry in Harrisburg 1 have lilted over twenty thousand pairs of glasses. In every in stance I have made a thorough scientific examination and fur nished glasses that have proved to lie right, and the patient received the very best service. My prices have always been reasonable, and my methods are strictly in accordance with the ethics of the profession. I am a graduate of a leading 1 'ptical College and have tak rn a post graduate course in • optometry and refraction. I have also had experience as an expert mechanic in several large factories where opt'cal -oods are made I make all '"laminations and tit the ulaSses personally. XO.

India- stion ar.d practically all forms • f stomach trouble, say medical au thorities. are due nine times out of t>i\ to an excess of hydrochloric a'cid in the stomach. Chronic "acid stom ach" is exceedingly dangerous and sufferers should do cither one of two things. Kither they can go on a limited and often disagreeable diet, avoiding foods that disagree with them, that irritate the stomach and lead to ex ■ ess acid secretion or they can eat they please in reason and make it a practice to counteract the effect of the harmful acid and prevent the for mation of gas. sourness or premature fermentation by the use of a little Bisurated Magnesia at their meals. There is probably no better, safer o more reliable stomach antacid than Hisurated Magnesia and it is widely used for this purpose. It has no di rect action on tile stomach and is not a digestent. But a teaspoonful of the powder or a couple of five-grain tab lets takf n in a little warm water with tlie food will neutralize the excess a. idity which may be present and pre vent its further formation. This re moves the whole cause of the trouble and the meal digests naturallv and healthfully without need of pepsin pills or artificial digestents. • Jet a few ounces of Bisurated Mag nesia from any reliable druggist. Ask for either powder or tablets. It never comes as a liquid, milk or citrate and in the bistirated form is not a laxative. Try this plan ar.d eat what you want at your next meal and see '1 this isn't the best advice you ever had on "what, to eat." G. A. Gorgas. —Advertisement. • !

The sea planes are substantially similar to the British dying boats and are oqulpped with two Liberty, motors, which provide approximately 700- horsepower to drive the machine.

Minor Motor Defect* Overcome In* this connection it was learned that engineers of the Aircraft Board have overcome the last minor defect j of the Liberty motors, having to do with the lubrication system.

BOWMAN'S—Fifth Floor West were received here yesterday with a feeling little short of amaze ment. There is some doubt in some quarters thut Chancellor Von Hert llng will have the audacity to make such a proposal, although the ru mor that the move is contemplated seems fairly well authenticated. The reception that such a proposal will receive is obviously apparer.. It has met with its answer in ad vance, so far as the United Btates is concerned, in the President's note to the Russian Congress of Soviets. This note was cabled to all the cap itals of the world and it is felt here that it would be little short of ef frontery on the part of Germany to suggest. In the face of Mr. Wilson's declaration, that the United States and the Allies should agree to turn over Russia to Germany lo lie dealt with as the German military author ities might dictate. There were, as a matter of fact, two significant developments that brought renewed hope to official Washington with respect to the Rus sian situation. Hope in Postponement The announcement of the post ponement until to-day of the Con gress of Soviets at Moscow dispelled all doubt as to whether President Wilson's note would arrive in time. It was felt that the leaders of the Soviets have had plenty of oppor tunity to consider the message fully before reading it to the congress.

Rarely have the German papers been so outspoken us in the present instance. They not only regard the Russian treaty as a great mistake, but denounce the peace with Ru mania in even stronger terms. The effect of these two treaties, they realize, has been to shut off all possibility of an early peace discus sion with the Entente Powers and the United States. . This apparently hus brought about a great feeling of depression in the Central Empires and reflects the point to which Ger man hopes had been raised by the peace speeches that were in progress when Germany began her ruthless march into Russia.
