OUR FORESTS IN DANGER Ottawa Journal) "One may but hope that for Can- ada's sake, for the sake of coming generations, Mr. Barnjum does not have to wait too long for converts to his preaching. For it is becoming increasingly apparent that our forest wealth is in real danger, facing 1 peril, that, unless it be grappled witt at once, may mean the end of our of Canada's greatest assets. No one who reads Mr. Barnjum's letter ir today's Journal can have much doubt of that. The real question is, what is the Government of Canada trying to do about it.?"" A monologue is a conversation he- tween a traffic cop and a motorist, ~--Louisville Times. Have You An Acid Stomach? When gas, pain and distress follow a good meal, it is an almost sure sign of "too much acid" in your stomach. Get rid of it now for it is dangerous. Ulcers are apt to follow. No matter how much acid is in your stomach, you can enjoy and re- lish your next meal without fear of after effects, if you have some Bisurated Mag- nesia handy to prevent the trouble before it starts. Try it. Eat whatever you like, in reason, and then take a little Bisurated Magnesia to neutralize the acid, sweeten vour stomach and protect the stomach lining. Doctors recommend Bisurated Magnesia-- thousands use it because it positively pre- vents stomach trouble or stops the worst attack in less than five minutes. Get a trial package, either powder or tablets, from vour druggist, use as directed, and indiges- tion and stomach troubles will go like magic. QUALITY COAL Phone 3060 MALLETT'S Luke Furniture Co.
