DUETOACIDITY Tells Safe, Certain, Speedy IU|M. For Acid Indigestion so—eul'lad stomach troubleés, such as indigestion, gas, sourness,. stol - ache and inabllity to retain food; are in probably nine cases out of ten sim- ply evidence that excessive secretion of acid is taking place in the x‘nomfih, cansing the formation of gas and acid indigestion. Gas distends the stomach and causes that full. oppressive, burning feslihg sometimes known as heartburn, while the acid irritates and inflames the del- fcate lining of the stomach. The trou- ble lies entirely In the excess develop- ment or secretion of acid. To stop or prevent this souring of the food contents of the stomach and te neutralize the acld and make it bland and harmless. a teaspoonful of blsurated magnesia. a good and ef- fective corrector of acid stomach, should be taken in a quarter of a glase of hot or cold water after eating or whenever gas, sourness or acidity is felt. This sweetens the stomach and neutraiizes the acidity in a few mo- ments and is a perfectly harmless and inexpensive remedy to nee. An antiacid such as bisurated mag- nesia, which can be obtained from any druggist, In either powder or tablet form, enables the stomach to do its work proper!v without the aid of arti. ficial digestents. .

J. Brophy ctated on Tuesday evening, that he thought the epidemic to be waning as there was a perceptivle decrease in the number of new cases reported and also fewer cases of pneumonia. Dr, Brophy stated that he is of the opinion that the epidemic was at its height on Monday and from now on if the people will only use care the disease may be reduced to only a few cases within a short time. On Tuesday afternoon there was a meetipg "of the city officials and Health Officer Brophy to discuss the influenza epidemic. The policy of closing the schools was discussed but it was thought that the schools could be kept open as the epidemic was on the wane. The watchfulness of the teachers in noticing the health of the children will be a precaution. The teachers are instructed to keep watch of the pupils and at the first sign of any symptoms of the disease to send the ‘child to his home for treatment with instructions to remain there a week. These instructions also apply STORRS COLLEGE TO RUN AT HIGH PRESSURE Connecticut Agricultural College at Storrs opens the eighth of October, a week from next Tuesday. Tn view of mdre than double the usual number of advance applications, it seems cer- tain that the entering class will be three times .the customary enroli- ment. Supplement these with former students who are planning to return and the list grows te close to 400 siu- dents, as compared with an average before the war attendance of 200 or a little more. In addition, the war de- partment has asked the college to vir- tually double the combined number of hours devoted to military and class instruction. e % President Charles L. Beach has pre- pared for just such a sitvation by overhauling the mess quarters for op- eration on the cafeteria plan, rrovid- ing a separate dining room for wo- 1nen students, and getting the dormi- tories in shape to be used as bar- racks. Prof. Beach first notified the war department that Storrs could ac- commodate 400 men in che Student’s Army Training Corps and then took immediate steps to prepare for just the contingency that has arisen; ramely, twice as many students to get twice as much instruction or in other words running the college at about four times its normal capacity. Under an agreement with the war department the college has contracted to furnish quarters, mess, and in- struction to be paid for the gov- ernment. ‘ The war depariment con- tracts to provide uniforms, equip- ment, officers, and a private’s pay for every student inducted into the S.

Feather- man, both of Lebanon, were placed on trial on Tuesday morning here in the superior court before Judge William S. Case and a jury on the charge of theft of $932.50 from John and Emma M. Madley, husband and wife, of Leb- anon. The money, which the two accused are charged with stealing on June 26, was what they had paid to the Mad- leys earlier on that day when they bought the Madley farm. Attorney Arthur M. Brown was counsel for the accused and State Attorney H. A. Hull was assisted by Attorney Warren 'B. Burrows. Mrs. Madley was the first witness. She said that in the house she had two packages of money which she had saved up. One package contained $$200 done up in a cloth bag while the other contained $300 wrapped up in brown raper. These packages, witness stat- ed. she put in a tin trunk with a cover which had a lock to it. She stated that Dachis went up stairs in company with others while she was putting the money away. During the time that Dachis and the others were up stairs the witness went into another bedroom, waiting for them to go down stairs. Later she took the money out, wrapped it up in a green coat and put the bundie at the bottom of a clothes basket while she went out to deliver an order with her husband and told her oldest daughter Florence about the money being in the basket. Upon her return she took the money out of the basket and placed it in a brown bag together with $932.50 done up in ‘a white paper. This sum had been paid to her and her husband as the bal- ance coming to her for the sale of the farm. About 7.30-o'clock on the even- ing of placing the money in the bag she discovered the package containing the $932.50 had disappeared. Town Clerk Charles J. Abel of Leb- anon was called to the stand and tes- tified to drawing the deed conveying the property and to having seen money which consisted of seven one hundred dollar bills, four ties, six fives, and $2.50. Ubpon. objection by Attorney Brown, Judge Casc excluded the line of questioning upon which the state attorney began. to examinme the witness and Mr. Absl was not questioned further. Florence E.
