1ST STOP EATIflG AT ALL Some Gastric Juices Always Secreted Work Havoc on Empty Stomach.

"The trouble with most sufferers from Indigestion," says a well-known authority, "is that they go to work to starve themselves. They cut one item after another off their list until they svt down to mush. They don't reflect that the stomach still secretes gastric juices, and that these Juices must work on something." - Nor can they seem to tealiie how difficult It is to stimulate these juices to flow again, when, after

their strength has left them, it is necessary, for them to eat to live. The stomach that is unused to food will reject it-',. : The stomach needs food for the sake of its own habitual functions, as much as the blood and tissue . demand it. Gastric juices themselves with nothing normal to wor kon, net up fermentation and acidityi"-- Where food cannot be taken without distress, however, it is necessary to administer a neutralis

ing mixture, and antacid. Such a mixture can be made up at home as follows: Half ounce sodium phosphate, 1 ounce essence of sealmint. half teaspoonfur baking 'soda, with enough pure water to make eight ounces. .The dose is two teaspoonsful before each meal. It is said that this simple, inexpensive mixture will neutralize the severest cases of intestalnal acidity, so that a dyspeptic who takes it can eat without distress. And, after all, eating, accustoming the stomach to food, is the best cure for Indigestion. Against the need of it, this simple formula should he cut out and saved. Any druggist should make it up or furitsh 'the Ingredients at a cost of about 0 or-85 -cents; " "

The Hammond delegation secured that promise from Senator Bowser when they stormed his room last night and insisted on an interview. But even this is no guarantee that it will pass. The Hammond delegation is unanimous in giving Edward Simons of Hammond the credit for the splendid work he is doing in behalf of the Hammond court. They say lie is a power and that his efforts should meet with general approval. Speaking of the fight the Indianapolis Xews says: " At the conclusion of the hearing of the quadrangular fight the committee heard the claims of the delegation from Hammond, asking for an additional superior court. This hearing was cut short, as Senator Wood taid: "We understand Lake county's needs and know that both Hammond and Gary should have judges. There is no need of speaking further."
