Condiments and Indigestion.

Cayenne pepper may be sele cted as a
typical example of condiment proper
ly so called. Mustard is a food and CON
diment combined; this is the case with
some others. Currying powders are
mixtures of very potent condiments
with more or less of farinaceous mate
rails, and sulphur compounds, which,
like the oil of mustard, of onions, gar
lie, etc., may have a certain amount Of
nutritive value.
The mere condiment lis o stim-
ulating drug that does its work
directly upon the inner lining of
the stomach, by exciting it to in
creased and abnormal activity. A dys-
peptic may obtain immediate relief by
using cayenne pepper. Among the adj
vertised patent medicines is a pill bear
ing the very ominous name of its COM
FOUNDER, the active constituent Of which
is cayenne. Great relief and Temporal
ry comfort are commonly obtained by
using it rs a "dinner-pill.' If thus used
only as a temporary remedy for an acute

over the food or stewed with it in
curries or any other wise, is one of
the most cruel of slow poisons
when taken habitually. Thousands Of
poor wretches are crawling miserably
towards their graves, the victims Of
the multitude of maladies of both mind
and body that are connected with
chronic, incnrable dyspepsia all brought
about by the habitual use of cayenne
and its continental cousins.
The usual history of these victims is
that they began by overlooking, took
the condiment to force the stomach to
do more than its henlthful amount of
work, using but little at first. Then
the stomach became tolerant of this lit
tie and demanded more; then more and
more, and more until inflammation, ul-
ceration, torpidity and finally the death
of the digestive powers, accompanied
with all that long train of misaries to
which I have referred.-From 1.-The
Chemistry of Cookery" by W. Mattieu

a New Anecdote of Alexander II.
Stephens.

Perhaps there never was a man so
frail in body, but so full of humor as
Alexander a.. Stephens. We had to
set up his great speeches before and
after the war, made in the old Capitol
OF Georgia, and he always wanted to
read his proof-sheets, not with great
success either. He was a bad spelIer
and o worse proof-reader. After his
famous speech in Milledgeville, just be-
fore secession, he got the writer to
bring him the proof-sheets to his room
in the Milledgeville Hotel. We found
him and his brother Linton alone. MI.
Alex. had a cane pipe-stem in his
mouth, the pipe resting on the water
stand, six feet to the front. As we en-
tered he politely beckoned MS to o seat,
and invited us to take q pipe, shorter
than the n he was putting at. After
a few preliminaries we remarked:
"Mr, Stephens, this is the granaest eff
fort of your life, but 1 can't see how
you and Nh. Toombs can be friends,
politically, any longer. I would be
proud to be able to father such speech
as yours; it would send me to congress-"
Said Mr.. Stephens in reply: Young
man, if you want to go to congress learn
to sing some good songs. 1t has been
my great misfortune to have no music
on my tongue. If I could sing songs
like 'Rack-back Davy, daddy shot q bar,
shot him in eye-ball, never touch a har,'
and old King Cole and 'Clar de
Kitchen etc, ETC., 1 could be president
of this probable disrupted nation" We
were so amused at the pleasantly of the
great man, and SO lost to business, that
we cut off an important paragraph on the
proof-sheet to light our pipe, and had to
get o duplicate. .

The Engineers Story Of the Brake.
man.
Chicago Herald

Chicago Herald.
Several years ago I was running q
fast express. One night We were three
hours behind time, and if there's any
thing in the world I hate it's to finish
q run behind schedule. These grade
crossings of one-horse roads are nui-
sances to the trunk lines, and we had q
habit of failing to stop, merely Stacking
up for 'em. At one crossing I had never
seen o train at that time of night, and
SO I rounded the curve out of the cut at
full tilt. l was astonished to see that
q freight train was standing right
over the crossing, evidently intending
to put a few cars on our switch. I gave
the danger whistle and tried to stop my
train, but / had seven heavy sleepers
on, and we just slid down the grade
spite Of everything I could do. Quick
or thanI can tell you the brakeman on
that freight train uncoupled n car just
back Of our crossing and ~signalled his
engineer to go ahead, which he did
sharply, but barely in time to let us
through. Ir fact, the pilot of my en-
CINE took the buffer off the real car.
Through that little hole we slipped and
lives and property were saved. Now,
that brakeman was only a common
railroader, yet he saw that situation at
q glance. There wasn't time to run
his whole train off the crossing, nor
even half of it-barely time to-kA~
one car length by prompt quick York.
He kept his wits about him as, I venture
to say, not n man in thousand would
have done, and saved my reputation, if
not my life. He isnow q division su.
p~erintendent on one of the best roads
in the country.

Increase Of Population in Germany.
The German. people. who we're onl

The German'people, who were only
%, 600, 900 in 1916, are now As, 500, 900,
and their present rate of increase is
greater than that Of any European race.
The population, which in france only
increases by 26 a year for every 10, 900
and in Great Britain by only 1O1, in
creases in Germany by 115, and this in
spite Of a vast emigration which, since
1916, has carried away 3, 500. 600, mostly
young adults. There is no sign of u s
pension in this rate of increase, while
there are signs that it is much to rapid for
the country to support. The vast, fiat.
sandy, wind-swept plain which makes
up so much of Northern Germany is
not fertile; the artisans, though most
Industrious, find it difficult to dispose of
their labor, and in 1882 the Prussian
officials discovered that the number Of
heads of families who must be exempted
from direct taxation because they were
earning less than Sl25 a year exceeded
1000, 600, and what was much more
formidable, increased with every year.

Bonny Nelly standing
At the open door,
Shapely shadow falling
On the sanded floor.
Young and fair is Nelly,
Yet her eyes are sad
Nelly's absent lover
Is a sailor lad.
Loving hearts will culver,
Though no tempest blow
Gallant ships have foundered
When the breeze was low.
Sailor lads are tickle,
Changing like the wind,
Nelly's lover far away
May d sweetheart find.
Nelly, fie! thus doubling
Sailor lads are true;
l can see n gallant bark
Abreast the pillows blue.
l can hear her anchor chain
Rattling ore her side
] see q sailor leap ashore,
O%utstripping time and tide.
Nelly, woman, hasten,
Put on your freshest gown,
A sailor lad is coming up
The road that's from the town;
He's looking for a place he loves,
a little garden stile,
A little homely cottage door,
A little ~lassie's smile.
Oh, faithful sailor laddie,
A king might envy thee;
For such a welcome home as thine
I'd gladly cross the sea.
