Multiplied Service
As an answer on "How to 8ucceed" an .
Idea carried but religiously by the Egan-
house Optical company 1017 Texas ave-
nue probably gives th best formula of
all. It is "multiplied service."
At the time of opening his modest opti-
cal shop In Houston nearly eight years
ago. Mr. Eganhouse reasoned thus: "If
1 make the few customers I get go away
delighted with my Service and so en-
thused that they will In turn tell 'their
friends about it there can be no handicap
big enough to stop my growth to ultimate
success." '
Time has born out his theory In an
unusual manner and now his place of bus
Iness is the largest In the Southwest.
"Lens service" says Mr. Eganhouse
"to acquire complete satisfaction to the
wearer must first be ground from a cor-
rect and accurate formula which likewise
must be secured by a optometrical ex-
amination and measurement of the ey
focus that is scientifically accurate; when
the patient Is correctly fitted that Is not
all the lenses must be checked from time
to time as fhe eyes are always subject
to change. We make it a point to check
our customers lenses regularly and where
a change is necessary we make it without
charge."
This sort of service is the kind that goes
farther than the average and makes peo-
ple glad to recommend theh- friends to
this optometrist when glasses are needed

INDIGESTION
.DYSPEPSIA '
GASTRITIS
STOMACH ULCERS
Why Magnesia Should Be Taken After
t Every Meal.
A flushed face may be the first notice-
able symptom of indigestion but disre-
gard this warning and soon there is un-
mistakable pain for indigestion is a pro-
gressive ailment. At first the symptoms
may be relieved by pepsin bismuth or
soda but these things do not overcome
the xcessive acid In the stomach which
Is usually the underlying cause of the
trouble and consequently the acid accum-
ulates and the occasional attack of in-
digestion becomes. chronic dyspepsia. The
dyspeptic is always particularly liable to
gastritis and gastric ulcers in the stom-
ach are only too often the forerunners
of peritonitis stomach cancers and death.
For this reason physicians place much
Importance upon keeping the stomr-3h
free from harmful acid and are continu-
ously advising chronic dyspeptics as well
as those who only suffer occasional at-
tacks of indigestion to keep a little pure
blaurated magnesia handy' and to take a
teaspoonful In a little water after everyj
meal practically any aruggist can sup-
ply you with blsurated magnesia and all
stomach sufferers .are advised to get an
ounce or so and give it a trial. Care
should be taken to tell the druggist to
give you magnesia In the blsurated form
as other magnesia preparations while val-
uable as laxatives ana mouth washes are
not recommended for the correction of
stomach acidity. Advertisement
