New Relief in Treating Heartburn i

By Herman N. Bun.desen, M. D. HKARTHI.'RJf la a very common condition during pregnancy. When it persists it tend* to lower efficiency and Interfere with a WCmtM’e morale. When it la severe and occurs at night it Interferes with sleep and thus I* v threat to health. According to Dr. Harold M. Wiley of Cincinnati, during pregnancy the enlarging uterus or womb forces the stomach out of its normal p>sitlot>. This Interferes with the emptying of the stomach. There is also a gradual lessening of the otrength of the stomach muscles. The uppei end of the stomach, wid the lower end of the esophagus whicn leads from the m uth to hhe stomach are affected by thlgi process. Thus stomach contents* can easily gain access to the lower part of the esophagus and produce the burning sensation wjilch Is known as itearthurn. This ialso may account for the fact that th* heartburn tends to occur mr»st often at night or when the patimt Is lying down Another Fsettor Responsible Another facte ff responsible for the heartburn irdiy be the lessened movemenu of the stomach during pregenant y. Normally, the stomach •mpties itself in about two hours, -paring pregns-nt y this Ume may

The union voted Sunday 1.197 to 797 to abrlIrate and the announcement was made that the walkout wan over. It brought Joy to residents of that area and was good news to the public generally. o o— The town of Berne may become a city during the next few months and elect a mayor and city council In 1917. Under a law enacted In 1935 this Is possible where a town has a population in excess of 2.000. The census of 1940 gave the population as 3,075 and unquestionably this has Increased the past six years. Attorney F. L. bitterer has given an opinion that the change can be made and the question is now under consideration by the officials and citizens of B"rue. 0 o—. State Senator Volt Eichhorn who has represented Adams, Blackford and Wells counties In the upper house of the General Assembly Ih>- past eight years spoke to a large crowd at headquarters, pledging himself to continue to work for the best Interest of all the people In his district. It was an enthusiastic session Indicating much Interest in the campaign and arousing the workers to increase their efforts for an old fashioned victory In Adams county. A number of meetings are scheduled over the county for the next ten days. o o More than one-fifth of the 10,000 manufacturing firms in Chicago and northern Illinois are engaged In foreign trade. Their products. their mail, their executives, travel directly from that area to the countries with which they do business. Chicago's airport Is a world port. Many of the transatlantic pilots live in the Chicago district and arrive home to tell their children of the lunch they ate yesterday in lamdon. Americans everywhere must stretch their current thinking to a realization of the International commerce so rapidly developing. o 0 Believing that most managements and unions work harmoniously together, and that the public needs to become aware of this, the National Planning Association next mouth will begin a study on the Causes of Industrial Peace under Collective Bargaining. Firms whose union relations have been peaceful and productive will be asked how they make such bargaining function when others cannot. The bulk of the investigation will be handled by a technical research staff, but supervision will come from prominent industrialists and labor leaders from both CIO and AFL.

This prepi aration has been shown to have a » I definite action In stimulating the i cotraction of the muscles of the , Intestine. Twenty women who complained of heartburn were given a supply . of the tablets and Instructed to ■ take one as soon as symptoms be- [ gan to appear. Complete relief oo . curred in 15 patients within 15 . minute* after taking one tablet. If the symptoms recurred as they often did during the day another tablet brought similar relief. Two of the patients reported partial relief. In the other three no lieneflts were obtained. In some of the patients who were often awakened at night with heart bum, taking a tablet before retiring helped to assure an unbroken night's sleep. Inasmuch as the amount of the drug administered is email there is little, if any, likelihood of any reaction as a result of 1U use. Furthermore, this drug in the dose used will not produce an interruption of pregnancy. The treatment is a simple one and is easy to carry out. it would appear that it 1* well worth trying by tbfjse women who euffer from heart bura durmg pregnancy. wr* » - *

She asked directly. "What la Vai Manley doing here?** A swift look of pleasure altered her father's face, but she did not see It; she was looking at the ring again. "Haven’t I explained sufficiently?" "No .. .• Mr. Wallace rose. He said easily: "My dear Abby! Surely It is obvious that Valentine is a charming young person and that 1 enjoy her companionship. She is intelligent; she has a quick grasp ... it has been a pleasure”—he smiled a little—"to . . . shall we say? . . . complete her education. Also, she has been most helpful to me. You, I may remind you. left me more or less stranded." She said stubbornly, and her eyes blazed blue, "Craig is perfectly capable of working on the book ... he always was." "Quite," agreed Wallace, "but he has other duties to perform." She said, "You—didn't like her; you said once she was not—the friend you would select for me." "I apologize," said her father. “I had seen little of her since her childhood.” He smiled at her. “Take the Jewelry," he said, "and we'll rejoin Valentine and Barry.” They had remained in the sun porch, Vai in a long chair. The striped skirt exposed her lovely long legs and her excellent ankles. Barry stood smoking by the flreplace. which had been filled with white birch logs. When Abby and Wallace had left them, Barry asked. "What are you up to, Vai?" "What makes you think I am up to anything?" He said, "Nuts to that, darling Why this sudden obsession with art? Surely, not for art’s sake?” She said warily, but smiling, T find it intensely interesting." Barry laughed. She amused him, even now, when he was annoyed and angry, for Abby’s sake. He asked, "Are you trying to marry my revered father-in-law?” The dark, vivid face did not change. She said lazily, “It’s an idea . . ." _ , "A fairly repulsive one," agreed Barry. "How flattering.'* She opened her eyes wide. She added, "Would you explain that? ... or maybe you'd better nut" It's an odd thing; there are women so female that a man can speak brutally and be understood Barry said. "It would be a quaint but not unusual form of gold-dig-ging" Her full mouth tightened, but her voice was under control. “Thanks, too much," she said. She sat up and looked at him. "See here,” she went on, "are you being nasty just for fun or arc you afraid that Abby will lose out? 6 "How like you,” he commented; “but as long as we are talking facts, no. I’m not afraid I don't give a hoot. I have enough money." *W she with meek •«-

I meet only married men. for the most part" "Don’t tell me that would deter you!" “Frankly, no," said Vai placidly, “but so far I haven't met one worth the effort, or the repercussions." She smiled and added, “Abby would be affronted, wouldn't she, If she realized that it’s your fault?" "Mine!" But he was not so astonished as he appeared and she knew it “Providing." she said lazily, “that I do bring it off.” She rose and came to stand by him. close. She wore a little perfume, not too much, of a heady sweetness. She said dreamily, “You have everything. you know . . . suitable . . . exciting and—as you just admitted—you even have money. But, unhappily, you weren't in love with me." Barry was not embarrassed. Vai might annoy or anger, but she couldn't embarrass him. He said. “No . . ." "You might have been," she said, "if Abby hadn't appeared at the swimming pool, all eyes and hair •nd irmocence." "I might" he said grimly, “yet ' I doubt that It would have endured as far as the altar."

Abby leaned back against him gratefully. . . , And Wallace, watching, spoke: “1 wanted Abby to have these trinkets . , . they are hers, rightfully, as Vai has already agreed.” Barry’s arm tightened about Abby. Wallace went on, without a perceptible break. “Vai will, of course, have her own jewelry . , . of a type more—suitable.” He put out his hand and took Vai's. “I am glad you came today. This seems as good a time as any to tell you that Vai and 1 are to be married very soon." ’ Someone said something, stifled. It sounded like “My God!” Craig had come in quietly and was standing by the door. Wallace turned. He said, “My dear boy, do come in ... not that this announcement can be much of a surprise to you.” Vai said, "No one looks particularly astonished or enthusiastic." “You can't,” Wallace agreed reasonably, "blame them. I am an old man, Valentine, and you are a very young woman." "History,* said Barry politely, "keeps repeating Itself. Congratulations, Mr. Wallace." Abby had not spoken. Her father said mildly, "That's handsome of you, Barry." He released Vai's hand and walked over to Abby. He asked, “And you, Abby?" He was shaken suddenly by her , resemblance to her mother. But there was more spirit here, more , stamina. She looked at him and smiled. She said, "No, I'm not ext actly astonished, father ... and I . hope you and Vai will be very . happy." I Craig made another stifled sound and went from the room. Vai looked after him, her eyebrows . raised. She said, "Craig seems upset.” She went over to stand by Wal--1 lace. She looked at Barry a moment and then bent to kiss Abby’s I cheek. "You don’t mind having me > for a stepmother, darling?” she ; asked. “No," said Abby and added, “I [ don’t mind anything."
