"And that 'Bisuratèd' Magnesia taken after moai of my meals is the only thing that keeps me free from pain and discomfort, and I take it regularly. I often prescribe it par my patients, and have had very good results."

Bisurated Magnesia gives quick relief is that it in- stantly neutralises excess acid and soothes, bents and strengthens the inflamed stomach lining. Nothing could be simpler, saler or surer.

INDIAN CIVIL SERVICE

Future Of The New Regime

The vital 'need for maintaining the personnel and quality of the Indian Civil Servits wag'stressed by Lord Willingdon, the former Viceroy, when he presided recently at a meeting, at 'Caz- ton Hall, London, of the East India Association, which was ad- dressed by Sir James Crerar, formerly Home Secretary to the Government of India

The Government of India Act of 1935, said Lord Willingdon, had given to a vast continent a unique opportunity to work out its salvation as a willing partner in the Empire. But it was for the youth of "Great' Beltsin to see that it supplied an essen tia) ingredient in the administration of the country.

Whatever the prospective changes in Indian policy, the great tradition of administration must be maintained not only in re~. gard to peace and order but in the improvement of rural and urban Conditions. The Indian Civil Service of the future must continue to furnish its contribution towards curd and intelli- gent administration, without which no constitutional advance in, India could promote the happiness of her people.

The safeguards provided for the services in the Act of 1935 were és complete B.S forethought could make them, and no imperial ser vice offered better attractions both in status and in emolumenta. But It was the opportunity of a career which allowed a man to give the best that was in him in service of real value to India and the Em pire that should be stressed:

AIR FORCE MEN KILLED

Extraordinary Series Of Accidents

An extraordinary series 'di acel-" dents, resulting in the death of three Royal Air Force men, befell ecven machines of No. 102 Bomber Squadron on a flight from Aide- grove aerodrome, near Belfast, to Finningley RAF station, near Doncaster. last month.

The aircraft were all of the Hey- ford 'heavy night-bomber type.

Taking off from Aidegrove in the morning the squadron, flying in formation, crossed the English coast near Barrow-in-Furness without difficulty, but approaching the Pennines they met with rapidly deteriorating conditions, marked by beavy fog of a very cold type.

No man should enter the Indian Civil Service who did not appre- clate fully the very real difficult- les with which he would have to contend. But where those dim- culties were clearly understood, and where the candidate was.cons- cious of a real desire to serve in India, no obstacle should be put in his way and no effort should be made to dissuade him.

Sir James Crerar said that the success or fallure of the new re- gime in India would in large mea- sure depend upon the maintenance of public services adequate to their entarging responsibilities. In many respects the weightiest share of these responsibilities would de-

Reference to documents telegrams sent to the Court during the hearing was made by Mr. Jua Lice Lewis at the conclusion of the Tonypandy riot charges at Swan- sen Assizes last month.

"I never look at any of these documents," he said," and I want to say that for any person or body of persons to address communica- Eons to a judge regarding cases is most improper."
