SEIZED Al ALBANY
A lame automobile filled with
whiskey which was shipped bv freiuht
from Medford to Corvullis Inst Friday
niuht bv two unknown men, and from
which before shipment several huih
school boys stole several ounrts, is

ficers aUm? the line are hard at work,
and have been ever since the ship

shipped the booze.
The school students who stole
some of the Honor became intoxicat
ed the some niuht, and suved one bot
tle of whiskey to take with them to
attend a dance in Ashland last Sat
urday n:sht. and one of them became
so intoxicated thnt he was arrested
bv the Ashland police nnd was fined
in court there Monday.
It is known that the freutht ear in
which . the booie-fillcd auto was
placed was under the watchful eves
of two Southern Pacific detectives
all the wav from Grants Pass to Cor
vallis, they having learned of the
shipment from Medford through word
the authorities obtained from the lo
cal enrn.se nnd the stories told bv the
hit'h school boys as to where they ob
tained liquor. ,
The nuto was in Medford for ciabt
hours before it was shipped with its
contents clevcrlv caniouflntred. The

Edwin J. White, former, dairyman
at 322 East Main street, says: "I
was nearly laid up with an attack of
lumbago. It came on without any
warning and I thought, my back was
broken. I couldn't straighten up and
went about all bent over. A friend
advised me to take Doan's Kidney
Pills, which I did, and soon I was
able to get about. It required only
one box to fix me up In fine shape
and since then, I have never had any
trouble with my back and kidneys."

TRYliMAGNESIA FOR
It Neutralizes Stomach Acidity, Pre
vents Food Fermentation, Sour, ,
Gassy Stomach and Acid
Indigestion.
Doubtless it you are a .sufferer
from Indigestion, you have already
tried pepsin, bismuth, soda, charcoal,
drugs and various digestive aids and
you know these things will not cure
your trouble in some cases do not
even give relief. ;
But before giving up hope and de
ciding you are a chronic dyspeptic
just try the effect ot a little liltiii rat
ed magnesia not the ordinary com
mercial carbonate, citrate, oxide or
milk, but the pure blsurated mag
nesia which you can obtain from
practically any druggist in either
powdered or tablet form.
Take a teaspoonful of the powder
or two compressed tablets with a lit
tle water after your next meal, and
see what a difference this makes. It
will instantly neutralize the danger
ous, harmful acid in tho stomach
which now causes your food to fer
ment and sour, making gas, wind,
flatylence, heartburn and the bloat
ed or heavy, lumpy feeling that seems
to follow most everything you eat.
You will fiad that provided yon
take a little blsurated magnesia im
mediately after a meal, you can eat
almost anything and enjoy it without
any danger of pain or discomfort to
follow and moreover, the continued
ue of the blsurated magnesia cannot
injure the stomach In anyway so
long as there are any symptoms of
acid Indigestion. Adv.
