PETROGRAD BELIEVED OBJECTIVE OF TEUTON (Continued from Page One) would not mean a break between the al lies and Russia. Premier Lenine was chief advocate of the wireless sent from here announcing Russia's willingness to sign the German peace. Four other commissaries sup ported Lienlne.whlle lour opposed him. The opinion prevails here that Petro grad's fat's will b decided In a fort night. On the north the Finnish revolution Is under way ; on the west and southwest the Austro-Germana are advancing, while on the south, the Cossacks are threatening. This leaves Siberia and the Pacific ocean route the only one open for the envoys. The Russian armies are concentrated at Vitebesk under General Bonchbruye vltch to halt the German Invaders. Germans Near Finland Vitebesk Is a Russian province bor dering on Courland and Livonia. Its capital of . the same name lies about 260 miles east of Riga and 100 miles south of Petrograd.; . r?;v;v;".-;:? - " Commanders of the Russian army on the whole front have ordered demobili sation halted and wired the soldiers In Petrograd: v : - "Do your duty ; defend the revolu tion." The members of the left created a stormy scene In the executive council when they heard Lenine's report on the decision to announce Russia's willing ness to sign the peace pact. If the Ger mans spurn the offer, they said, there is certain to be a terrible battle; "If General . jHoffman continues the war, he will restore the nobles ana landlords and bankers," the Pvrada de clared. "We will fight to the last buUet and the last .man." The Bolshevik! sent an ultimatum to the Don Cossacks, ordering them to sur render. A desperate rifle battle fol lowed. The Cossacks retreated to Rost off (on the Don river about 25 miles from- its mouth), where they are being besieged. ' By an overwhelming majority the Bolshevikl and revolutionary Socialists of the left In the central executive com mittee voted to defend Petrograd at all costs. A mobilization of all workers Is being considered. Information was flashed to the Smolny institute that if the majority Socialists do not break with the German govern ment the independent Socialists will start a civil war. .The Germans have occu pied Hapsal Ca seaport on the Gulf of Finland 58 miles south of Reval) and arrested all the officials and members of the Soviet.

Acid stomachs are dangerous because much nrlrt irritates the delicata lin ing of the stomach often leading to gas tritis accompanied by serious stomach ulcers. Food ferments and sours creat ing the distressing gas which distends the stomach and hampers the norma functions of the vital, internal organs, often affecting the heart. It Is the worst of folly to neglect such a serious condition or to treat with or dinary digestive aids which have no neu tralising effect on the stomach acids. Instead get from any druggist a few ounces of Blsurated Magnesia and take a teaspoonful in a quarter glass of water right after eating. This will drive the gas. wind and bloat right out of the body, sweeten the stomach, neutralise the excess acid and prevent its forma tion and there is no sourness or pain. Blsurated Magnesia (in powder or tablet form never liquid or milk) is harmless to the stomach, inexpensive to take and the best form of magnesia for stomach purposes.
