The Causes of Primary Dyspepsia.


The saliva gastric and pancreatic juices
and bile are produced in very large quanti-
ties, several pints of each daily. Of course,
they must be made from the blood, and,
being continually absorbed, the same fluid
is used over and over again after each por-
ton has done its appropriate work. There
fore, it is impossible for these necessary Sc
cretions to De made unless there is an abund-
ant supply of blood to the organs thus en-
ployed. Anything that interferes with the
blood supply will caues dyspepsia.
If the blood itself is thin and poor in
quality, everything made from it must be
correspondingly defective In this way,
then, a poor, insufficient diet, large losses Of
blood, profuse discharges las in consump-
ton, etc. J. the effects of such poisons as that
Of malaria, lead, mercury and Of specific
Diseases" act as causes of dyspepsia. Pro
longed mental work, with sedentary habits,
lack of bodily exercise, and of fresh air and
sunlight, by directing the blood to the brain,
lessen the amount sent to the digestive or
gans and cause dyspepsia Excessive anx-
iety, grief, worry or any absorbing emotion
acts in the same way. Fatigue OF the mus
cles by manual labor, if too prolonged or
excessive exercise in amount, produces SINH
lar results Diseases of the heart or lungs,
which seriously interfere with the passage
of the blood through the lungs and the tax
ing up there of the vitality essential oxygen
OF the air, produce dyspepsia in another
way. The blood is prevented from leaving
the digestive organs; the latter, instead of
producing natural secretion, pour out a
watery fluid that is useless so far as acting
upon the food is concerned, and grave di-
gestive troubles follow, not because there is
any disease of the stomach" but in conse-
quence of slowing OF the blood current,
which must be very brisk if they are to do
their full duty.-Cor. Globe Democrat

would make great speech on the occasion,
reviewing the history Of farming back to

time when bushy beard was the pride Of

CLOCKS IN THE ELEVATED STATIONS

A Skilled Man Cooks After Them All, and
They Keep Pretty Good Time.
A reporter sat in the Fifty-ninth Street
station of the Third avenue elevated road
the other day when a man came in and be-
gan to wind up the clocks He compared
the time with his watch and, after exchang.
ing a few words with the agent, boarded
train going down town
"That is the roads clockmaker," said the
agent HE has charge Of all the clocks in
all the stations on the elevated roads He
comes here every Tuesday, as on that day
he inspects and winds all the clocks on the
Third Avenue road They are eightday
clocks, and SO need winding only once
week. If the clocks get out of order he is
notified, and repairs them That keeps him
pretty busy.
HE is a first-class workman, as, indeed,
he need be, for it is a very difficult thing to
keep the CLOCKS on these stations correctly
regulated The vibration at the stations.
caused by the sudden jerkings Of the trains,
as they come to standstill or start away,
is enough to knock even the best clock out
Of killer. The amount Of vibration is differ
emit at the different stations, and, conse-
quently, it takes great deal of regulating
before you can get a clock to go right At
this station the vibration is often SO great
that find it difficult to keep my seat and
the doors and windows rattle as though the
station was coming down The vibration is
stronger than at the South Ferry station
where all the roads meet AT Christopher
Street station, on the Ninth Avenue road,
there is considerable vibration. l don't
know why there should be any difference,
but believe the Christopher Street station
stands On made ground, there once having
been a creek there
"The clocks we have are all very good,
and don't believe you will find one that is
more than a quarter of a minute out of the
way. There was one at South Ferry station
that was valued at $3.50, but it has lately
been removed to the general offices on Broad
way. When these clocks were first put in
the stations it was intended to have them
set by electricity. Each one contained
battery, and was arranged so that wire
could be attached The idea was to have
them all set by time ball st noon Why
it was not carried out don't know."-New

Though the ri h light which filed the morn
ing skies
Increase and fade into the depths of night,
We sin if We believe the radiance dies,
When, with slow steps, it leaves our COM
mon sight
Once to have seen is surely still to see,-
So when we speak of early hope as dead,
We take our hold of words but carelessly,-
Forgetful that on Hope the Spirit fed
And gained-in losing even the truth to be-
The present truth of self maturity"
All! still the heart signs on!-Then seek
again
Some larger light mid drifting clouds of
gloom
For surely something, say you, must remain
After Hopes death-some flowers grace
her tomb
Nay-tenderly-for she may not be dead,
But sleeping, charmed, until your life
kiss hers
Into the living Beauty which you fled
To place your love beside:-She ministers
Not as we do even to our dearest guest
For banquet as we may, hunger is still
A few honrs distant only her best
Comes last, and ends all hunger Where
fore fill
Thy heart with sorrow' Somewhere, it
must be
Thy pure, high Hopes touch Gods Desires
for thee
