In the sixteenth century, Richard of
Greitfenklan, Elector OF Treves, had q
monster cannon cast for HIM. 1t was

weight In 1899, the French took it
from Ehrenbreitstein and put it in the
arsenal Of Metz. After the Hundred
Days, when so much stolen property
was recovered, it seems 10 have been
forgotten. At any rate, it was left at
Metz, where the Germans of 1871 ex-
pected to recover it. In some myste-
rlous way, however, the great gun was
smuggied away to Paris, where it is
now, in the Museum of Artillery. If

Facts About Dyspepsla.

Dyspepsia is a weak stomach, made
weak by overwork, and, like a mar
made weak by overwork, it needs rest
needs repose ; but, as we cannot live
without eating, the necessity must be
met by giving the stomach as little work
to do rs possible, and that work should
be easy, just as we ourselves, in the
weakness of recovery from disease, in.
vite our strength back by doinc but lit.
tie work, and that which can be easily
done.
The cure of most cases of dyspepsia
becomes extremely simple, and very
certain, if these few first principles are
j~odiciously applied in any given case
to-wit give the stomach but little to
do let that little be of a kind which is
easily done, and let both be so arranged
that the stomach may do its work easily
and soon, and have abundant time for
rest. The work of the stomach is called
indigestion" and mean the process of
preparing the food for yielding its nu.
TRENT portions to the system, to give it
warmth, growth and strength.
AS q general thing, dyspeptics should
not drink anything at meals, because
there is q liquid in the stomach which
dissolves the food-in a sense, melts it.
If cold water is drank, it cools this
liquid, and it losses its power
Of melting the food, so to speak /; as the
cooler the water is, the less is it able to
melt the ice in it. Of course, every
knows that this comparison
is not critically true; butt conveys the
essential practical idea to the minds of
the masses.
