Is Dangerous
Physician Recommends the use' of Mag
nesia. Sufferers from indigestion or dyspep
sia should remember that the presence
of gas or wind in the Btoniach invari
ably indicates that the stomach is
troubled by excessive acidity.
Excessive acid causes the food to fer
ment and the fermenting food in turn
gives rise to noxious gases which diB
tend the stomach, hamper tha normal
functions of vital internal organs, causo
acuto noanncnes, and ny pressure ox the
pnuemogastic nerve often sets up pal
pitation of the heart. A neglected acid
stomach may be the cause of impaired
intestinal digestion which may in turn
cause a genoral run down condition duo
to the absorption of tortc, material into
the blood. To quickly dispel a danger
ous accumulation of wind in the stom
ach and to stop the food fermentation
which creates the gas, tho acid in tho
stomach must be neutralized and for
this purpose thore is nothing bottor
man piain oisiirntcu magnesia taken in
a little wnter immediately after meals.
This instantly neutralizes the acid,
Ihns stopping fermentation and tho
formation of gns, and enables the in
flamed, distended stomach to proceed
with its work under naturnl conditions.
The bisuratcd magnesia is obtainable
in powder or tnblet form from any
druggist; but as there aro several forms
of magnesia you should ask distinctly
for bisuratcd magnesia. Take a tea
spoonful of tho powder in a quarter
glass of water (or two of tho tablets)
after each meal.

Supreme Court Upholds Baker
County Circuit Court In
' Stalker Case
Tho rights of a plural wife to the
property of her husband under the laws
of the stnto of Oregon came in for re
view in the supreme court today in an
opinion hunded down by Chief Justice
Mooro in the case of K. Lucile Stalker
and others ugnins Alexander H. Stalk
er and others relative to a quarter sec
tion of kind in Pine Valley in Baker
county. The facts of the case show
that Emily E. Stalker was a plural
wife of Alexander fcStalker and both
were members of the Morman church
and were, in 1882, residents of Idaho
where their sons and daughters were
born prior to Junuary 1, 1883.
Mr. Stalker feared proscoution for
polygamy after the United States luw
was amended in 1882 and he determin
ed to nut away his extra wife. With
this end in view he bought a quarter
section in Pine valley for $700 and
put $:t00 worth of improvements on it
and left her there with her children
while he returned to Idaho and his
other wifo. He did not give her a deed
to tho land because he afterward said
ho feared she would become dissatis
fied and return to him in Idaho and
got him into trouble. He continued to
pay the taxes on tho land and it be
longed to him although his wife and
family lived on it up to the present
time. In 1910 his plural wife wrote
to him stating that she desired a. deej
so she might sell the land as it had
been rented and had fallen into a bad
state ot rennir. "This, she said,
"you will think is a big demand, but I
think, it is a small compensation tor the
many ars I was your willing slave
for you and your entire family.''
Stalkor replied that ho would furnish
he- with a deed and for her to send
him tho description to the proporty by
metos and bounds but before tho deed
was signed and while the matter was
pending the father received the in
formation that the place had grown in
value until it was worth $15,000 and
before the matter was settled he died
in 1012 and the plaintiff's mother died
a few mouths later in the snino year.

erty to tho children of the woman who
