The band spent fifteen months in

Avolil Indigestion, Sour Acid Stomach,
Heartburn, Gas on Stomneh, Etc.
Indigestion and practically all forms
of stomach trouble, say medical au
thorities, are due nine times out of
ten to an excess of hydrochloric acid
in the stomach. Chronic "acid
stomach" is extremely dangerous and
sufferers should do either one of two
things.
Either they can go on a limited and
often disagreeable diet, avoiding 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 prac
tice to counteract the effect of the
harmful acid and prevent the forma-
I tion of gas, sourness or premature
fermentation by the use ot a little Bi
surated Magnesia at their meals.
There is probably no better, safer or
more reliable Stomach antlacid than
I RisurateU Magnesia and it is widely
used for this purpose. It has no
| direct action on the stomach and !e
not a digestant. But a teaspoonful of
the powder or a couple of five grain
tablets will neutralize the excess
acidity which may be present and pre
vent its further formation. This re
moves the whole cause of the trouble
and the meal digests naturally and
healthfully without need of pepsin
pills or artificial digestants.
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 see If this
isn't the best advice you ever had on

Y. W. C. A. Hostess House En
tertains Woman on Ger
man Territory
By Grace Goulder
(With the American Y. W. C. A.
Overseas.)
Cobl.-nz, Germany—(By Mail). —It
happened right here in Coblenz.
A big corporal came into the Y. W.
C. A. Hostess House and asked for
the director. Miss Ruth Woodsmall,
who comes from Colorado Springs,
Col.
"Could my mother stay here," he
began at once, trying his best to cov
er his excitement.
"Your mother," gasped Miss Wood
small. "How did your mother ever
get here?"
"Well, she isn't here yet. but if she
comes will you keep here?"
"Of course 1 will, but—"
I She didn't finish, for the boy had
smashed iiis cap back on his head and
was out of the door on a run.
The corporal's visit remained a
mystery for two days.
Then one evening just at dusk, a
little, white-haired woman dressed
exquisitely in black appeared in the
'. sitting room of the Hostess House
l and the corporal was hovel ing be
hind her, trying to be beside her and
back of her and in front of Iter all
at once. He was carrying her coat —
| a big fur one. With them were three
j doughboys, pals of the corporal. One
of them carried a woman's handbag
—evidently belonging to the little
white-haired lady. They tried to
keep in the back ground but their
eyes were glued on her face.
Everyone in the sitting room sat
at attention. There are no English
speaking men or women out of uni
form in the Third Army area. Yet
here was a woman in civilian clothes.
Mothers are unheard of with the
army. But this was e. mother,
everyone knew.
Together at I.list
They sat down in a corner. the
three pals on chairs in front of them
and the corporal and his mother sit
ting very close on the same bench.
She didn't seem to notice the dozens
of other people who were watching
her in the other part of the room.
She put her little, rather old hands
on the big shoulder of the corporal.
He was much bigger than she —
bulky in a thick army overcoat and
brawny as a soldier should be. She
tried to put her arms around him but
she conldnt. So she just sat there
I beside him, silently, looking up into
] his face and fondling his hands.
I He took his overcoat oft and walk
ed across the room to hang it up.
I She stood up to peer at him around a
i pillar, so that she could keep her
eyes upon him. Then he sat down
j beside her again, smiled at her and
j lier eyes as she turned them up at
him, filled with tears.
One of the pals stood up, coughed,
twirled his hat on one hand and then
the other.

HOW CAN I ESCAPE
THE PITFALLS OF
DISEASE THIS SPRING?
What Must I Do to Be
Able to Resist the
Many Ailments So
Prevalent in Sum
mer?
Nature's greatest transition is
the change from Winter into
Spring the passing away of
one season and a re-awakening
of new life everywhere.
Trees, flowers, plants of every
description, having consumed
all the vitality which was stored
up to carry them through the
dreary winter, bud forth with
new eifergy and blossom into
flower, preparing to grow and
accumulate new strength and
development.
But the human system has not
passed through the winter sea
son in a dormant state like the
trees and plants. You have been
called upon to expend energy
and vitality constantly. In fact,
there has been a greater demand
upon your strength to withstand
the rigorous winter than at any
other season of the year.
So that as spring approaches
—the most joyous season of the
entire year—very often it finds
our system so run down and
your strength so depleted from
the strenous demands of winter
that your vitality is at a low
ebb, and you are unable to enjoy
the beauties of springtime that
are so abundantly present on
every hand.

The Meeting
"Igist January my husband came to
Coblenz about his citizen papers. An
American soldier in Ralph's company
who was In the otflee heard his name
and asked him if he was any relation
to Ralph. He didn't tell him Ralph
was in Coblenz, but went after Ralph.
He didn't tell Ralph ills father was
here. When they met they couldn't

RUMFORQ
■ ■ THE WHOLESOME
BAKING POWDER
The weakened, run-down feel
ing of lassitude that seems to
have possession of you is some
times called "Spring fever" and
its symptoms are well known.
Your appetite has failed, your
energy seems gone, night finds
you all tired out, and that run
down, good-for-nothing feeling
seems to have full possession of
you.
The human body is just like a
piece of fine machinery, al
though few people give it as
much consideration. A locomo
tive is given a thorough over
hauling after each trip. Your
body has brought you safely
through the winter season and
the voyage has taxed your
strength. Very naturally, there
has been considerable wear and
tear which must be repaired.
Your system needs, first of
all, a thorough cleansing and
toning up to replace the natural
waste and wear. Impurities have
accumulated, and these aggra
vate your rheumatism, or make
your catarrh worse, or intensify
any skin disorder which you
may be afflicted with.
Very naturally, then, you are
ready to ask: "What am I to do
to put my system in tiptop shape
for the coming of springtime, so
that I will be in condition to
withstand the common ailments
so prevalent in summer."
Simply profit by the experi
ence of thousands of others, who
regularly every spring take a
long: time when I didn't know where
he was or how he was—l got in the
habit of thinking of him as he was
when he was a baby—l kept seeing
him as a baby and remembering the
way he felt when he was little.
Isn't that queer? And now look at
him—"
And the corporal tried not to see
the adoration in her eyes.
"Five years is a long time to wait
to see your boy," she murmured, and
kept here eyes on him. Again she has
forgotten the people around her.
The corporal cleared his throat.
"Tliis is why 1 asked you if you could
keep my mother, Miss Woodsmall. I
didn't want her to come unless she
had a good place to stay. All, e-e-r
—thanks awfully."
