Speedy Re-, lief For Acid Indigestion So-called stomach troubles, such as indigestion, gas. sourness, stom- • uch-ache and inability to retain food 1 are in probably nine cases out of ten. i simplv evidence that excessive secre tion "of acid is taking place in the; stomach, causing the formation of gas and acid indigestion. Gas distends the stomach and causes that full, oppressive, burning • feeling sometimes known as heart burn. while the acid irritates and in flames the delicate lining of the stomach. The trouble lies entirely T in the excess development or secretion J of acid. , . To stop or prevent this souring of the food contents of the stomach and i to neutralize the acid, and make it bland and harmless, a teaspoonful of bisurated magnesia, a good and ef fective corrector of acid stomch. should be taken in a quarter of a slass of hot or cold water after eat ng or whenever gas. sourness or aciditv is feit. This sweetens the stomach ar.d neutralizes the acidity in a few moments and is a perfectly harmless and inexpensive remedy to use. An antiacid. such as bisurated mag nesia which can be obtained from any druggist n either powder or tablet form enables the stomach to do its work properly without the aid of ar- | tiftcial dijtestents. Magnesia comes in several forms, so be certain to ask i for and take only Bisurated Mag nesia which is especially prepared; for the above purpose. G. A. Gorgas.' TJu |i— i—i Taylor ' | !

"Community singing will be one . of the features of this camp in order i to offset the war bread and short i rations of sugar. The singing will i be in charge of the camp quartet . .with Colonel Dietrich as leader.

Not only was control of American newspapers and magazines contem plated, but fostering of pacifist senti ment in certain colleges was accom plished. the investigators said. In this latter agitation. It was charged the late Dr. Hugo Muensterberg. of Harvard, and Otto Merkel. arrested lasi year. were the directing geniuses. . Directed by Ambassador von Benistorff and Dr. Heinrlch Albert, the German financial agent in the United States, the Teuton plan in cluded financial and commercial transactions for the benefit .of Ger many. Their movements urefully concealed, the German W agents bought cotton, wool and other com modities urgently needed in the blockaded Central Empires, and succeeded in making some ship ments through neutral countries, ac cording to the revelations. At frequent conferences which the German plotters held in New York it was stated, general directions were given also for bombing mu nitions plants, ships and railroad properties, under the immediate su pervision of Franz von Rintelen, now a federal prisoner under con viction of conspiring to destroy ships at sea. The Evening Mail Scheme Count von Bernstorff. former Ger man Ambassador to the United States, attended a conference here early in 1915 when six or seven persons discussed the purchase of the New York Evening Mail, in or der to bring about publication of "unbiased and truthful news" of the European war in an English news paper. Ludwig Nissen, former presi dent of the National Jewelers' Asso ciation. described this conference in a statement to-day, explaining that he had interested himself temporar ily in the proposal only "from the standpoint of pure Americanism in the application of the 'square deal.' " i The conference, which was held at . the home of Percival Kuhne. mem | ber of the New York, and Leipsis, ' Germany. banking house of Knauth. Xachod & Kuhne, had no definite re sult, according to Mr. Nissen. How- j ever, he was informed later by Dr. ; Edward A. Rumely, now under ar- | rest on charges involving the alleged purchase of the Mail for the Ger man government, Rumely had | acquired the newspaper with the fi nancial backing of a "very influen- j i Hal and rich individual." This indi- i ( vidual. Dr. Rumely later told Mr. : Nissen, has since died. \ Mr. Nissen admitted buying bonds 1 of the Mail from Dr. Rumely and asserted that the very fact that the securities had been "peddled around" in small lots had been an indication to him that the govern ment at Berlin "had nothing to do with the Mail." Cables Bring Ray of Hope to Roosevelts; Report Unconfirmed By Associated Press Oyster Bay. N. Y., July 18.—A ray of hope that Lieutenant Quentin ' Roosevelt may not have fallen to his death in a combat with a squad ron of German airplanes, was brought to Colonel Roosevelt and his wife last night in a cable message sent from Paris by Mrs. Theodore ■ i Roosevelt, Jr., in which she said the | report was "absolutely unconfirmed" j there.

His pranks at : the White House and school are af- j fectionately remembered by Wash- . ington. He was born here November, 1897, at the family home when his father was Assistant Secretary of the Navy in the McKinley administration. He was unmarried. The boy was a born naturalist. I with a special love for animal life, j Many are the tales told of his ea-iy i 1 c!;iys in the White House, when he ' kept the family and attendants in a state of anxiety over his strange pets, j which often escaped to wander! through the grounds or around the house. Birds, beasts, wild and domestic, j even reptiles, were included in the miniature menagerie the' child gath i ered from all parts of the country. ' When it was known the Colonel, so | far from being disturbed by the boy's traits, encouraged first hand studies in natural history, friends I and admirers in every part of the country contributed all sorts of strange pets to the White House collection. One of the prime favorites of I Quentin was a beautiful little pony I which had been given to Archie, his older brother, by Secretary of the Interior Bliss. Once, when Archie was ill, Quen tin became possessed of the idea his brother's recovery depended on see • ing the pony. Therefore, he man aged to get the little animal Ir.to | ; the private elevator in the White' House and took him to his brother's • bedroom on the upper floor. A pet snake was one of the lad's j : favorite possessions and it was >aidi he had more than once created panic j I in his school by producing this rep-' i tile. Quentin was a public school boy, 1 his father believing that was the true school of democracy. His schoolmates recall one day when the teacher was asking the jlass to tell the occupation of their fathers. At Quentin's turn he nonchalantly replied: "My father is just It" ORGANIST AT THEATER I Marietta. Pa.. July 18. —Miss Ger , trude Y.
