Naturopathic Physician 1515 State Street GAS If you suffer with gas, you have many uncomfortable mo ments. After meals you burp. Your abdomen feels distended and full as a tick. You wish you had not eaten. Your food "repeats." You take anti-acid tablets. You try many reme dies. Nothing helps. You reach the point where even water seems to make gas. Your con stant question is, "What causes all this gas?" Many factors may be involved such m; 1. Overeating 2. Poor food combinations 3. Unbalanced diets with too many fermenting foods 4. Mucus In the stomach and bowels 5. Worry and nefvousness 6. Eating when not hungry or when tired 7. Lack of organic minerals,' vitamins and enzymes 8. Hurried meals If vou are a gas sufferer, It would be well worth your while to djswer what Our Natural Method of treatment ran do for you. Life is swell when you feel well Smith Blames (Continued from Pm 1) Hopes that the British were ready to go along on such a plan had begun to wane over the past weekend, however, partly as a re sult of French political develop ments and partjy because of apparent concessions made by the Reds to keep the Geneva la!kc gning. i The French development which dimmed the united front outlook was the installation of a new French government beaded by Pierre Mendes-France who prom ised a settlement in Indochina or his resignation within a month. Churchill Due Friday Churchill and Foreign Secretary Eden are due in Friday. Their talks with Eisenhower and Secre tary of State Dulles will be in formal and. aides indicate, . as secret as possible. The Indochina crisis is the No. 1 topic. Others include the organiza tion of a European Defense Com munity and atomic energy prob lems. U. S. officials said that the American government is still ur gently interested getting a united front of Allied European and Asian nations set up to halt Com munist expansion in the Indochina area. They think a conference would be useful to that end. , Flash Floods (Continued from Pace 1) The western Dakotas, eastern Wyoming and northwest Nebraska were a bit cooler, but to the west and south it was even hotter.
