Results That I.ast Arc What Appeal
to Harrisburg People
Kidney sufferers in • Harrisburg
want more than temporary relief.
They want results that last—
Results like Mrs. Moore tells
about.
Hers was a thorough test.
Four yeirs is a long time.
Doan's Kidney Pills have stood the
test and stood it well.
Why experiment with an untried
medicine?
People here in Harrisburg have
shown the way.
Read the story of Mrs. L. W.
Moore, 935 North Third street. She
says: "Ever since an operation a
year ago I have had trouble with my
kidneys. My back felt weak and
pained me almost constantly. My
kidneys acted irregularly and caused
4 me much annoyance. I felt all run
down and my nerves were in awful
condition. I used Doan's Kidney
Pills and they did me a waild of
good." (Statement given August 29,
1914.)
LASTING BENEFIT
On January 27, 1916, Mrs. Moore
said: "Doan's Kidney Pills cured
me of kidney complaint some time
ago. For about a year I have been
free from all kidney ailments."

TELLS DYSPEPTICS
WHAT TO EAT
Avoid Indigestion, Sour Acid Stom
ach, Heartburn, Gns on
Stomach, Etc.
Indigestion and practically all
forms of stomach trouble, say medi
cal authorities, are due nine times
out of ten to an excess of hydro
chloric acid in the stomach. Chronic
"acid stomach" is exceedingly dang
erous and sufferers should do cither
one of two things.
Either they can go on a limited
and often disagreeable diet, avoid
ing foods that disagree with them,
that irritate the stomach and lead to
excess acid secretion or they can eat
as they please in reason and make
it a practice to counteract the effect
of the harmful acid and prevent the
formation of gas. sourness or prema
ture fermentation by the use of a
little Bisurated Magnesia ut their
•neals.
There is probably no better, safer
or more reliable, stomach antiacid
than Bisurated Magnesia and it is
widely used for this purpose. It has
no direct action on the stomach and
is not a digestent. But a teaspoon
ful of the powder or a couple of five
grain tablets taken in a little water
with the food will neutralize the ex
jess acidity which may be present
and prevent its further formation.
This removes the whole cause of the
trouble and the meal digests natural
ly and healthfully without need of
pepsin pills or artificial digestents.
Get 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 bisurated form Is not a laxa
tive. Try this plan and eat what you
want at your next meal and see If
', this Isn't the best advice you ever
had on "what to eat." G. A. Gorgas

those shells are dropping near, there
is no need to be told about It."
In reference to the fighting. Shelly
says "We surely ara giving the Huns j
something to think about. You must
hand It to the Yanks. . I was never
so proud of the fact that 1 am an
American. The French, who are
old war veterans, marvel at the abil

Yanks are tackling the Huns. Our
boys do not lay much stress on
ceremony; they believe in action and
plenty of it. And, if for any reason j
the gun or bayonet falls they fall
back on the good old fist fighting. ,
The other day I saw a Boche who j
had a badly dislocated left shoulder, i
and whose face showed unmistak
, able signs of coming into sudden
contact with some hard object. A
French doctor asked him what had
happened to him. The Hun's face
was too badly mashed for him to j
spe ik very well, but he ,muttered j
'American,' and made several Jes
tures with his right fist. I do not i
know who the Amgrlcan was that I
