LOGICAL DYSPEPSIA
TREATMENT
Importance of Eliminating Acidity and
Food Fermentation
During the past two or three years
reports have frequently .appeared in the
Press concerning tlie remarkable value i
of bisurateil magnesia as an antacid;
and its ability to promote normal,
healthy digestion by prev»nting food
fermentation and neutralizing danger
ous stomach acid has often been dem
onstrated. Until recently druggists i
could supply bisurated magnesia in
powder form only, from one to two tea- 1
spoonfuls of which, taken in a little
water after meals, almost instantly ;
stops all fermentation and neutralizes 1
acid, but sufferers from stomach trou- !
ble will be glad to learn that, after a :
long series of experiments, a leading'
firm of manufacturing druggists has i
now succeeded in producing a 5-grain
tablet which combines all the valuable
intacid properties of the ordinary bisur- i
ated magnesia In a very convenient i
form. This new tablet of bisurated j
magnesia can now be obtained of drug
gists everywhere and many physicians
arc already prescribing them instead
of the powder form. adv.
kovic, ot' Steelton, hopes to have an
nulled the divorce decree granted last
*Mav to his wife, Cilika, on the grounds
of desertion. A hearing in the ease
was held to-day.
The couple until last spring had not
lived togethei for more than eighteen
years. During that time the husband,
with a son, had lived in Austria, his fa
therland. He alleges he did not leave
his wife with the intention of deserting
her; that the separation was not ma
licious and wilful on his part, but, on
the other hand, was prompted by the
wife, who induced him to return to
their native land and take with him
their son, who, eighteen years ago, was
suffering fiom a disease of the eyes
which specialists here then believed
could not be cured. It was hoped to
find a cure in Austria, the father says.
Brajkovfc further alleges he was
prevented from returning to America at
a time earlier than last May by reasou
of the immigration officers refusing to
permit the son to land in New York.
The former hustband, in addition, as
serts he had no notice of the wife's in
tention to make application for a di
vorce, despite the fact that Mrs. Braj
kovic knew his place of abode at the
time she began the court action for le
gal separation.
Some time after the divorce was
granted, Brajkovic alleges, he wae
ejected from his wife's Steelton home.
L>ater t'he husband brought a damage
suit against Spiridon Fursioh, an inter
l>erter, who, he alleges, alienated the
affections of the wife.
The wife's attorneys, Wiekeraham &
'Motzgcr anil 0. G. Wickersham, say
they will show that the husbantl's
claims are groundless. Commissioner
L/eiby at the end of the oresent hearing
will submit the facts to Judge McCar
rell for decision. By agreement of
counsel the hearing to-day was contin
ued until Thursday next

FfiAZER NOW IN LEAD
FOR JUDGESHIP
Continued from First I'a|e.
morrow. In the larger counties, Phila
delphia and Allegheny for example, of
ficial figures are not expected for ten
days or two weeks. Election officers in
three Harrisburg districts were called
before Judge MoCarrell, with their bal
lot boxes this morning, and directed to
make return of the tally sheets w'hich
inadvertentlv had been placed in the
•box. Such was the case in the Sixth and
Seventh precincts of t'he Ninth ward
and also in the Third precinct of the
Eighth ward. The errors were not seri
ous ones. Thoy catiseff bait a few min
utes delay and the election officers were
discharged immediately after producing
the tally sheets.
The returns in sixty-two districts of
tthe county 'had been counted up to noon
to-day. f>fiat being about half of the
number of county polling places. Com
parisons made wTtoh unofficial figuros
printed in the newspapers showed that
Judge Kunkel gained seven votes and
.Judge!Frazer, -his o;iponent, gained throe,
leaving a net gain of four for Kunkel.
The official figures give Judge Kunt
kel ten fewer votes than set down in
the unofficial reports of the First pre
cinct of the Third ward, this city. In
the First precinct. Tenth ward, he
gained 18 over the unofficial "s figures
and he lost one in Conewago township.
Judge Frazer lost one in the Eighth
precinct, Ninth ward, gained three in
the First of the Tenth and another in
Conewago township.
Wonld Be an Election in 1015
Those who profess to know say that
Justice Stewart will relinquish his place
on the bench "before the Supreme Court
begins its sessions in Philadelphia next
month.
Asked this morning concerning the
story of Justice Stewart's resignation,
Governor Tener said he had no informa
tion at all regarding the matter, ami
consequently did not caro to say any
thing about it. It is generally be
lieved, and this comes from an undis
puted source, that in the event of Jus
tice Stewart's retirement, the loser in
the Supreme Judgeship race of last
Tuesday will be appointed to succeed
him, provided Governor Tener has the
appointing of such successor.
•Justice Stewart's term will not ex
pire until the first Monday in January,
1927, he having thirteen years yet to
serve after this year. In the event of
his retirement and the appointment of
a successor, the latter's commission
would be for a year, and there would
be an election for the place in Novem
ber, 191 a.
The retiring Justice was elected in
1906 and is now in his loth year. He
served through the war as an otlieer in
a Pennsylvania regiment, and in 1882
ho ran as an independent candidate for
Goveruor, dividing the Republican party
to such an extent that Robert E. Pr,t
tison was elected. He was at the time
a member of the Senate in which he
served until 1884. He was President
Judge in Franklin county from 188S to
1906, when he was tailed to the Su
preme Court bench.

National Guard Officers Will Probably
Chose Him Again as Colonel of 4th
On November 17, under military
regulations, an election for colonel ol
the Fourth regiment, National Guard,
will be held in Allentown by the
fleers of the regiment, and all indica
tions point to the re-election of Col
onel Christopher T. O'Neill, who fo;
fifteen years has commanded the resri
ment
Colonel O'Neill was superintendent
of the State arsenal in Harrisburg dur
ing the second administration of Gov
ernor Pattison, and for years has bets,
regarded as one of the most effieien
officers in the National Cuard. Thr
story, however, emanating from Allen
town, that as senior colonel in th"
Guard, Colonel O'Neill will be made l<
brigadier general by appointment o
Governor Toner before Christmas, ivi
said at National Guard headquarters,
to be entirely without foundation, a
the commission of none of the brig
adier generals expires before nex;
year, and there is no intimation thai
any of them arc going to resign. Ac
cording to Adjutant General Stewar;
there is nothing in the story whatever.
However, in the event of Colony:
O'Neill becoming a brigadier general.
Colonel Joseph B. Hutchison, of Ifur
risburg, chief of police, commander o!'
the Eighth regiment National Guard,
would become senior colonel, being
longest in commission next to Coloae.
O'Neill, and in time he, too, woiijd
probably become a brigadier general.
