JUST DEsPOTISM.
A Modern Ruler Who Will Recognize No Laws But Those of Nature.
 Something of Interest to All.

Were one to venture the assertion that within the borders of the United States are over 50, ,000, 900 despotic rulers. they would be thought insane, and yet, fguratively speaking, It is true.
 We will take one of them for example, the one in which you are most interested. This ruler does not sit on a gilded throne, re- splendent in the jewels of office. He is modest, and his name is "Stomach.''
 King Stomach IS a very quiet, inoffensive sort of ruler, so long as we treat him well and observe the laws of health. But let us once insult his dignity or oppose hls "rules and regulations' and we are put into the torture chamber and made to feel the wrath of his rebuke.
 Let us drop metaphor aud talk in plain, simple English. If we violate nature's minister punishment by suspending wholly or in part the digestive function. Every dyspeptic stands self-accused Of some indiscretion. Ignorance may be his excuse, but neither nature nor the state recognize this plea.
 The stomach is powerful organ, whose work it is to disintegrate and dissolve the food which we eat and thus fit it for ab- sorption. Whenever it Is taxed beyond it's powers or disturbed from some indirect cause it is in exactly the same condition that one's limbs are after ten-mile walk.
 We say they are tired, they need rest; so does the stomach, but you can't entirely suspend the stomach's work without starv- ing yourself any more than you can under take to rest the tired heart by causing 1t to stop.
 Were it practical for dyspeptic to give up eating and digesting food his misery would disappear, but such 6 thing we know has not been practical, at least up to the present time. Recently, however, pro cesses have been perfected whereby foods may be artificially digested outside of the stomach; in other words, that organ can be spared the work of disintegrating and dis solving our food.
 Paskola Is the new artificially pre.di. gested food. It's success thus far has been phenomenal, as is amply attested by the following quotations from few of the letters received from those who have ex- perienced relief in it's use. Not only does Paskola rest the stomach by providing the body with nourish ment in the manner in . dicated, but 1t aids the digestion of other foods, hence it is that the people who so willingly offer their testimonials have found themselves able to eat food which has heretofore caused them the most frightful distress.
 Under date of September 10 Mrs. L. P. Greenhaus of Myrtle Springs, Tex, says that she has been troubled more or less with indigestion for six years, and for the
 last year has scarcely been able te .st | about. About month ago she accident ts = | 5Ns a1otN -. OAS SA OA yaQ65s has
 began taking Paskola. me than ali tas ths

 doctoradpe of being cured until I com up1ced your food."
 John Fleck of Wilmore, Pa., tells us. under date of September II, that he, too. has been victim of dyspepsia for four or live years. He had no appetite, and it was only with difficulty that he could eat any thlng. For three weeks he had lived on four or five glasses of sweet milk each day, when he happened to notice one of our ad. vertsements in the daily press. He re-. solved to give Paskola a trial, bought a small bottle and used it according to direc- tions. He concludes: "After the very first dose felt decided improvement and my appetite began to return. I can now eat almost anything without distress in my stomach, and am able to walk around, feel ing better each day. firmly believe that had 1t not been for Paskola should be mum bered with the great majority that rest beneath the sod. I therefore unhesitat- 1ngiy recommend it to all who are afflicted with indigestion in any of it's forms.' U
