The best form is Phillips Milk of Magnesia; one harmless, tasteless dose neutralizes many times its volume in acid. For 50 years the standard with physicians everywhere. Take a spoonful in water and your unhappy condition will probably end in five minutes. Then you will always know what to do. Crude and harmful methods will never appeal to you. Go prove this for your own sake. It may save a great many disagreeable hours. Get the genuine. Phillips Milk of Magnesia, the kind physicians have prescribed for 50 years. U I II juring him.

POLITICAL EOW REKINDLED St. Paul A political fued which arose over the appointment of a fed eral district judge, in which Attor ney General Mitchell and Senator Schaal have been the principals, was rekindled when the former returned to his home state to address the Min nesota bar association. Immediately after Mitchell's address, in which he praised Persident Hoover's course in making nominations of judges, a friend of the senator who was pres ent sought to have the latter given ten minutes "to make a reply." While a chorus of "no's" greeted this suggestion, the chairman of the meet ing ruled that it had adjourned and that the motion was not in order. Schall then announced he would make a nanswer in a statement. Mitchel made no direct reference in his address to the differences be tween the two men, which came about when Schall sought the ap pointment of Ernest A. Mitchel for a new federal judgeship in the state, which the attorney general opposed. Advertise regularly persistently, for that's the way to get results.

Louisville people are endeavoring to discourage the use of the lake by bathing parties, especially those who unfamiliar with the lake and its depth, for it has a great many of the deep holes where the inexper ienced swimmer would have a poor opportunity of getting out of the deep waters.
