fro DE CONTINUED
NATION OF DYsPspTlcs.

How the American People Have Degen-
Grated In . Century.
There can be no doubt that we are
becoming nation of dyspeptics. Our
forefathers, those hardy old pioneers
who conquered the wilderness, were
blessed with good appetites and sound
stomachs. They knew not pepsln or
the hot water cure. Rum was good
enough for them-rum and true re-
ligion, with casual witch burning as
an appetizer. Their degenerate de-
scendants, however, are chronic suf-
ferers from Indigestion. The slightest
indiscretion in diet brings train Of
tortures and sometimes terminates ia
tally, says the Chicago Herald.
Out at Duncan, o. T., for example,
one Frank Martin ordered and ate q
light lunch, the materials OF which
were eighteen fried eggs, three-quar-
ters of q pound of beefsteak, dozen
oysters, two or three fishes, five cups
of coffee and a sufficient quantity of
bread and butter. Soon after partak-
ing Of this light refreshment Mr.. Mar
tin remarked that he feared he had
eaten too much, although he did not
complain" Shortly afterward he be-
came extremely deceased. Thus we
may perceive the effects of luxury and
sumptuous living upon the descend
ants of the Pilgrim Fathers. Two hun
dred years ago Mr.. Martin would have
been lookedupon as light and fniclSy
eater.

CHAPTER vL-coNr1NuED.

Among the listeners was old Mr..
Lishy Flint, who lived near the En-
lows, and near where the Amersons
dwelt before they moved to town.
Once or twice month, on Saturday,
he came into town, and, after taking
toddy at Rachel's, walked and sat
about on the streets until it was time
for him to start upon his return home.
His chief boast was that he was law
abiding citizen, whose advice to every
body would be to keep out of disputes
of every kind except such as were
harmless in their possible conse-
quences, and when these were serious
to submit to reasonable compromises
rather than plunge or be plunged in
judicial litigation.
"And who would you put down for
the bad ones, Owen?" he asked.
"Well, now, Uncle Lishy," Carruth-
ers answered, there isn't, to my opin-
ion, there isn't what I'd call bad
person in the whole town-that Is,
among my acquaintance Of respectable
people, which is good deal extensive,
if say it. Now, for instance, there's
Mr.. Amerson-Wiley Amerson, / mean
that some people don't seem to think
30 very much of him, but in the deal
ings I've had with him he's been per-
feet square, and even liberl. OF course
he's man that wants whatever's done
for him done to his direction, but l
have frequent heard him say, when
I've been doing business for him in his
office, that he would like to know why
some people think not as well OF him
as he hope he deserve"
"Well, if Wiley Amerson would want
to have my opinion of a matter O. that
kind, / should tell him plain, like I
limited to him the day his father'swill
were proved, that people would think
more of him II he weren't so grippy in
his tradin', and special II he weren't so
satisfied with the holt he have on

prop'ty, to the excludin' of his brother

exact kind of will I'd have made if I'd
been in the old man Amerson's place;
but still the laws the law, as i under
stand it, in such cases, and if / hadn't
been laid up with the rheumatism I'd
have been obliged to swear, same as
you did, that l thought the old mans
mind sound as anybodys when he

"Of course, of course; and I'm not a
man to say break peoples wills that's
made celebrate, even If their minds is
predigiced; but it seem to me wrong
and not right for Wiley to not make nc
