PRACTICAL PRESCRIPTION
AGAINST STOMACH ACIDITY
Nine-tenths of all cases of stomach
trouble nowadays are caused by too
much acid. In the beginning the stom
ach Itself Is not diseased but if tills
acid condition Is allowed to continue,
the acid is very likely to eat Into the
stomach walls and produce stomach
ulcers whft-h may render a radical sur
gical .operation necessary even to pro
long life. Therefore, nn "acid stomach"
is really a dangerous condition and
should be treated seriously. It is ut
terly useless to take pepsin and ordi
nary stomach tablets. The excess acid
or stdmach hyperacidity must be neu
tralized by the administration of an
efficient antacid. For this purpose tne
best remedy Is bisuiated magnesia
taken In teaspoonful doses in a fourth
of a glass of water after each meal.
Larger quantities may be used if nec
essary as It Is absolutely harmless. Be
sure to rfsk your for the blsur
ated magnesia as other forms of mag
nesia make effective mouth washes hut
they have not the same action on the
stomach as the bisurated. —Adv.

STILL INSIST THE
BRITISHLOSTSHir
Official German State
ment That English

Sea Fight Adhered To
ANOTHER STORY
OF THE BATTLE
German Naval Officers Resent Sugges
tion That They Were Trying to
Avoid Battle When Rear Admiral
Hipper Changed Course of Vessels
Berlin, Jan. 27, Via London, Jan.
28, 3 A. M.—The British admiralty's
announcement that the battle cruiser
Lion was tewed back to England in a
damaged con: lit ion was received in Ber
lin us confirmation of earlier German
reports that in addition to the battle
cruiser which it was asserted had been
sunk, other British ships received seri
ous injuries.
The official German statement of the
entire loss of one British battle cruiser
is adhered to as positively as ever. The
destruction of the vessel is said to have
been clearly and unmistakably ob
served not only by the destroyer which
torpedoed it but also by the crew of a
Zeppelin cruising above the scene of
the engagement.
Gennan Destroyer's Dash
Toward the end of the battle, it is
said, a German destroyer mode a dash.
Whether the little vessel was alone or
with a flotilla could not be learned but
it was said it made its way between
the lines under cover of the smoke to
within torpedoing range and twice suc
cessfully torpedoed' the second cruiser
in the British line. This cruispr, it is
asserted, immediately fell out of line
and later sunk.
The first British cruiser was said to
have been seriously hit and the British
then, according to the accounts re
ceived', ceased the engagement aud
withdrew, being about seventy miles
from Helgoland.
The Associated Press has been unablo
to learn how many men were killed or
woundevl aboard an unnamed German
cruiser which was hit or the nature and
extent of the damage done. The infor
mation was given, however, that the
ship would soon be repaired and that
the damage would not injure her fight
ing capacity.
First German Ship Not Hit
Except for the loss of the Bluecher,
the Germnns suffered comparatively lit
tle, according to reports contained in
letter received here from participants
in the battle, despite the artillery su
periority of the British.
It is said that the first German ship
was not hit, but that the second ship
in line was struck on her armor belt.
The shell did not penetrate her hull,
however. The third ship of the line
was hit by a shell which caused some
damage and resulted in the only casual
ties in the squadron besides those
aboartl the Bluecher.
No losses are reported on board the
small cruisers or in the destroyer
flotilla. The German ships were from
120 to 140 miles northwest of
Heligoland when they sighted the Brit
ish. /It could not be learned under
what conditions the squadrons sighted
each other, but the engagement began
immediately at an extreme range of
12'/i miles aud took the form of a run
ning fight iu two lines, the British ships
being to starboard about four points
astern of the Germans.
Not Trying to Avoid Battle
German naval officers resent ihe sug
gestion that they were trying to avoid
a battle and point out that a number
of considerations may have influenced
Head Admiral Hipper to choose a south
cast course which would bring him back
toward Heligoland—namely, to secure
the advantage of the light and also the
wind which would blow the smoke
away from the targets and also draw
the hostile units within reach of the
submarines and perhaps of the German
fleet. The weather was clear.
The British ships had the advantago
of speed and could choose the dis
tance at which to fight. They kept at
a range of from nine to twelve and one
half miles, at which distance the fire
of the Bluc,'her's armament was in
effective. Her twenty-five centimetre
shells, naval officers assert, might have
reached an enemy's warship, but they
could do no damage. They add thut the
British concentrated their fire on the
Bluecher, which was the tail end ship.
She fell out of line about 12.30 p. m.
and was last seen surrounded by a
swarm of torpedo boats.
Saw Two British Destroyers Sink
Naval men add that a German tor
pedo boat in the vicinity of the Bluech
er saw two (British destroyers sink at
12.37 o'clock under the fire of the
Bluecher's guns.

LUTE WAR NEMRIMY
Continued From First P«(«.
Turks inflicted a defeat on the Russians
in the Caucasian region.
A great battle has developed in
Galicia, along a hundred mile front
skirting the Carpathians; this struggle
which is in pursuance of the new Aus
tro-German plan of shifting the weight
of attack from Central Poland to the
south, may mark a turning point in the
campaign in the east, and both the Rus
sians and Teutons attach the highest
importance to the outcome.
The Austro-German armies, if suc
cessful, would effectually cripple Rus
sia's drive at Northern Hungary. Thus
far there are no indications as to the
result of the fighting in this battle,
which probably is still in its prelimi
nary stage. An official statement from
Petrograd says merely that the battle
is developing on a large scale.
To the eastward, in Bukowina,
there is in progressing fighting which
is another phase of the Austro-German
movement to drive the Russians to
their own territory. Apparently the
Russian sweep across Bukowina had
been halted. The Russian report stated
that artillery engagements are in prog
ress, but gives no information as to
the outcome.
Meanwhile the struggle continues in
the north, along the Warsaw front. Re
peated German attacks were made, and
at one point, on the Bzura, the attack
ers broke through to the Russian
trenches. The Russian statement says
that later they were expelled at the
point of the bayonet.
In the west the Germans have re
newed their assaults in the neighbor
hood of Soissons where, recently, they
won a decisive victory. In Alsace the
fighting is less intense on account ot
heavy snows.
Territorial Integrity of China Secure
Tokio, .lan. 28. —The Foreign Office
issued a statement concerning the pres
ent negotiations between Japan and
China it is declared that these diplo
matic exchanges "contain nothing of'
a nature to disturb the territorial in
tegrity of China, or anything conflict
ing with the spheres of influence now
enjoyed 'by other Powers in China."
Protests on Delays in Cable Connections
Copenhagen, .fan. 26, Vi:i London,
Wednesday, .lan. 27, 12.30 A. M. (De
layed in Transmission).—The Danish
government is making representations
to the British government in the matter
of delays in cable communication from
Denmark to the United States. These
delays, which are Delieved to constitute
a detriment to Danish commerce, are
supposed to be due to the Bri'ish cen
sorship.
