STOMACH TROUBLES [ARE DUE TO ACIDITY Tells Safe, Certain, Speedy Relief For Arid Indigestion So-called stomach troubles, such as r indigestion, gas, sourness, stomach \ ache and inability to retain food are .in probably nine cases out of ten, i simply evidence that excessive secre tioj; af 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 heartburn, while the acid irritates and inflames the (delicate lining of the stomach. The I trouble lies entirely in the excess de jQieiopment or secretion of acid. To stop or prevent this souring of | the food contents of the stomach and [to neutralize the acid, and make it j.bland and harmless, a teaspoonful of i bjsurated magnesia, a good and effec j tive corrector of acid stomach, should ! Jbe taken in a quarter of a glass of i s >hot or cold "water after eating or j I whenever gas. sourness or acidity is | 'felt. This sweetens the stomach and j neutralizes the acidity in a few mo- I Iments and is a perfectly harmless and ; {inexpensive remedy to use. t An antacid, such as btsurated mag- I ! nesia. which can be obtained from | jany druggist in either powder or tab flet form, enables the stomach to do ' fits work properly without the aid of {artificial digestents. Magnesia comes rln several forms, so be certain to ask {for and take only Bisurated Magnesia, f which is especially prepared for the iabove purpose. G. A. Gorges. A d-1 vertisement.

TUESDAY EVENING, U-BOAT MAKES GAS ATTACK ON COASTSTATION Six Men Overcome; U. S. De stroyer Sinks Hun Craft, Is Report Washington, Aug. Is seeking {o bring one of her favor ite brands of frlghtfulness direct to America's shores. A gas attack was made on the • North Carolina coast late Saturday afternoon. Six of the coast guard and lighthouse personnel on Smith Island, pear the entrance to Wil mington harbor, were overcome by the gaa but no deaths resulted, ac cording to a Navy Department state ment last night. The gas was generated from three large patches of oil, each more than an acre in extent, which the subma rine spread on the water. The gas was described by the Navy Depart ment reports as having about the same effect as the mustard gas which was used against the Allies in France. It was effective for about | thirty-five or forty minutes. Th,e gas was generated from the oil about forty minutes after the appearances of the patches were noted. This is the first time in the his tory of submarine warfare that such gas has been employed. The attack led naval officers to consider steps to meet it. It raised the question of equipping coast guards and crews of the sub marine chasers with masks. It was said at , the department last night that this subject would be given immediate consideration. Details of Attack Following is the Navy Depart ment's statement on the North Car olina attack: The Navy Department has re ceived a dispatch from the com mandant of the Sixth Naval District, Charleston, S. C.. stating that an at tack with gas was attempted on the North Carolina coast about 5 o'clock Saturday afternoon with the result of temporarily putting opt of business the coast guard station and lighthouse personnel on Smith Island. The report goes on to say: Ahnut forty minutes after the at tack three large oil spots, each more than an acre In extent, were ob served passing by Smith Island to the north. This oil, trom which the gas was no doubt generated, must have been released from a subma rine in the vicinity of the entrance to the channel with the hope that it would come lp with the tide, but the tide, fortunately, set along Smith Island. Report was made to Colonel Chase, coast artillery corps, Fort Caswell! N. C„ by Captain Willis, of the Smith Island coast guard, imme j diately after the effects of the gas were noticed. Six men were gassed, but no deaths resulted. The gas had the effect of mustard gas, Pnd was effective aboul thirty-five or forty minutes. The color of the gas has not yet been ascertained, and its ef fects on trees and shrubbery not yet determined. The entire matter will be investigated and full report made. The incident was reported by Colo ! nel Chase to the naval district com | mandant. : Smith Island is oft the mouth of | the Cape Fear river, near the en l trance to the channel to Wilming- I ton, N. C. j The first real encounter between |an American destroyer and a Ger | man submarine since the U-boats I began their raids on shipping in I American waters was announced yes terday by the Secretary of the Navy. Believe U-Boat Sunk Indications pointed to the sinking or serious damaging of a submarine operating off the Virginia coast, but the Navy Department entered no of ficial claim to the destruction of the enemy vessel. Secretary Daniels au thorized the following: "The Navy Department has re ceived a report that an American destroyer sighted an enemy subma rine about 100 miles east of the Vir ginia coast and dropped fifteen depth bombs on the spot where the Ü boat submerged. "The submarine was not seen again, but an oil slick appeared and two more depth charges were dropped on the spot." I Secretary Daniels said yesterday naval officers agree that at least two or more submarines are operating in American waters. He made this statement in announcing the report of the crew of the schooner Katie Palmer, which was sunk late Satur day afternoon in New England wa ters. Particular interest was attached to statements of the crew of the schooner, who were taken aboard the U-boat, to the effect that the German commander stated Vie was equipped to stay in American waters six months "if he desired." "Just Talking "Of course, if he could obtain supplies and fuel he might do so," said Secretary Daniels, "but it is the general view that he was just talk ing." Unbidden Guest Ejected From Trolley Car; Was Waiting For His Owner Car 62 8 of the Fourth and Sixth itreets line of the Harrisbirrg Rail ways Company was pretty well crowded and waiting in the Square to pursue its journey up town about 10.10 last night. Both doors were open. In violation of all the rules of the company and the Public Service Commission a passenger entered by the front door, unbidden and penni less. In the center of the aisle the unwelcome guest of the railways company stood waiting, looking this way and that, head in air, anxious, expectant and not a little recalcl trant. The conductor looked daggers while passengers smiled. Indeed, one of them whistled. Seconds fled and a car ahead moved forward. The passenger waited, now impati ent. Still there was no welcome, no moving aside to make room. There was a stir among the five centers and curiosity to know what would happen the interloper. The conductor glanced at the fare reg ister, then at the motorman, who stood smiling, read to start. "Get out," sniffed the conductor. The va grant stood unflinching: The conduc tor reached for the bell cord. At the ' same time the motorman left his post, beckoned to the fareless one to move, pointed to the door and, get ting no response, took the passenger by the back of the neck and shoved him into the unfriendly outside. A white and brown fox terrier, missing his master, had entered the car hoping to find his owner. He had tarried too long and the in exorable hand of fate had snatched him and claimed him for its own. Thar* wu no word to-day that owner and vagrant had found each lf> thar, BELL 1091—2850 UNITED HAIIKISBURC.
