ACUTE DYSPEPSIA.
Sympathetic Heart Disease Often
Attends 1t.
The Modern Treatment Consists In Re-
moving the Cause.

(Fron1 TIE Republican, Cedar Rapids Lotro)
Mrs. V. Curley, who has resided in Clar-
ence, Iowa, for the past twenty-five years,
tells an interesting story of what she con-
siders rescue from premature death. Her
narrative is as follows:
t'For ten years prior to 1924 was a con-
slant sufferer from acute stomach trouble.
1 had all the manifold symptoms of acute
dyspepsia, and at times other troubles were
present in complications did not know

how careful ] might be as to the quality,
quantity and preparation of my food, dis

spondent and blue. Almost to the point OF
insanity at times, and would have been glad
to die. Often and often could not sleep.
Sympathetic heart trouble set IN, and time
and again 1 was obliged to cali doctor in
the night to relieve sudden attacks of suffo-
cation which would come on without q
moments warning.
My troubles increased as time wore on,
and I spent large sums in doctor bills.

almost constantly. During 1922 and 1893 it
was impossible for me to retain food, and
water brashes plagued me. was reduced
to skeleton. n consultation of physicians
was unable to determine just what did all
me. The doctors gave US as their opinion
that the probable trouble was liberation of
hope of recovery. One doctor said: ''All I
can do to relieve your suffering is by the use
of opium.
About this time a friend of mine, Mrs.
Samantha Smith, of Glidden, Iowa, told
me about the case of Mrs. Thurston, of Ok
ford Junction, Iowa. This lady said she
had been afflicted much the same as l had.
She had consulted local physicians without
relief, and had gone to Davenport for treat
u1ent. Giving up all hope of recovery, she
was persuaded by q friend to take DR..
Williams Pink Pills. The result was al
most magical.

elements necessary to give new life and
richness to the blood and restore shattered

tiles were now to ask him where
Schramn's effects were hidden? What
if they should demand the right to eX-
anime them? Morgan was no longer
simply a Subaltern officer, he was the
commander. pro tenn, of the big and
important post of fort Ransom, and
bound by every consideration to act in
conjunction with the civil officials in
the enforcement of law and in the aid
of civil process.
Even as he was pondcring over the
matter, horseman appeared in the
broad glare OF the sunshine on the bare
open space in front.
I'm looking for the post command
err" said he, and handed him tele-
gram. Morgan mechanically unfo1ded
it and read:
ITO the Sheriff, Latimer county.
Butteville. Commanding officer Fort
Ransom instructed to give every assist
ance in his power. You will be allowed
TO make all proper search"
This was signed by the adjutant gen
era1 of the department, and was pres
emily supplemented by another which
the operator at the post handed in. He
was in conversation with the deputy
sheriff at the moment, and. eXcusing
himself, Morgan opened and read:
Commanding Officer, Fort Ransom
Civil authorities report they are ham
pered in search for money stolen from
Paymaster Graves. Render every as
sistance and allow all proper investi-
CATION"
do you mean that your people think
any of this money is hidden here at this
post?" he queried.
''Well, sir, that's what some of 'em
say. Two of our officers will be out
here in a moment. 1 rode ahead while
they were jogging along in their bug
gy. They were here last night, and
Mrs. Hinkel was seen toting a box up
into the post just as soon as she heard
they were inqu;ring for her shanty."
Morgan turned away. Far out across
the winding ribbon of the road, twist
ing and tvvjning over the rolling sur
face of the prairie, he could see the
black dots in the light dust-cloud that
told of the rapid approach OF the Off
GERS OF the law. Officially he had no
knowledge of the whereabouts of that
box, nor even OF its existence; person
ally he had now every reason to be-
lieve that it was secreted under his own
roof. Confident of SchraInm's limo
cence, he had faith that nothing crimi-
mating could be found in Schram's be-
longings. But suppose that the box
contained papers personal and family
documents which dealt with nobody
business but his own What right had
they to turn his letters inside out. pos
sess themselves of his secrets, and
parade them in the columns of the
press, as paraded they certainly would
be? It was an embarrassing question.
what gave rise to the suspicion that
Schramm had left valuables in the
hands of Mrs Hinkel?'' he asked.

Rest and changed how glibly the
words fall How leaden they light on
the ear OF husband and father impov-
erished in the service and bound to the
WHEEL How was he to offer rest and
change to any of his brood? If rest
and change could have saved the life
of his beloved wife, how could he have
won it for her?
Eve given Constance soothing medi-
cine. Better not disturbe her tonight"
said the doctor, as he left; so Morgan
ventured not to bend over his sleeping
child, fearful of breaking the spell.
Yet at dawn, when the little battalion
of foot marched off to Butte, she was
up and at the window, importuning
him for latest news from the front.
Hours that morning he had to be at the
office, for dispatches were coming in
thick and fast, ordering ordnance
stores and ammunition sent hither and
yon, and up to noon nothing whatever
was heard from WiEthrop's command,
and the big eyes that questioned him,
when he came to kiss Comics white
forehead, we're trimmed with mourning
circles, as though already she believed
him gone a2d for him mutely wore her
weeds. At three p. m. came dispatch
from Rhett, SIX miles out from Pavgnee,

twelve: Report of killing OF officer
and orderly untrue. Lieut.. Thc2nton's
horse accidentally shot While scouting.
No otaer casualties heard OF. Win

Painted Lodge already
Morgan took this over home at once.
Mrs. Woods, bonny little army wife
and mother that she was, came from
Comics room, and to her he gave the
message. He would not permit anyone
to think he supposed bis child could be,
at her tender age, unduly Interested in
the fate Of any man. Yet he found
himself listening at the foot of tie
stairs. Would she cry out in relief and
Joy? No; whatsoever she might have
betrayed to him, Constance was on her
guard now. She was her mothers
daughter for pure grit" said he.
Connie is so glad it wasn't true, "
called Mrs. Woods, tossing the brown
paper down the stairs. ''Shc wants 20

her?"

FASTENED to his stock of arms and NUM-
lions OF war, thinking little OF them, 1T
must be owned-thinking little of any
thing just now but Connie. Not yet

son-bred girl, yet so like her mother in
her own girlhood, SO gentle. unselfish,

young fellow who had so suddenly LETT
them, and that it was known-noted

have taken all the trouble to send that
message telling of Thornton's safety?
Sorrow, trial. trouble of nearly every
kind had come to him during the last
year or SO, but this was something SO
utterly unlocked for. What could he
do? What should he do?

were merely returning on the trail OF
Col Winthrop's command Morgan
had read many a screed in similar
strain. It was what his own men We're
saying that aroused him to sudden in
terest
''Who was that red-headed chap was
out here last night asking to know
where was Schramm's trunk?" inquired
Private Geohegan of his comrade.
''Oh, he's wan of the sheriH's gang.
l miSremember his name. Sure the
quartermaSter sergeant told him
Schramm carried his trunk, like the
elephants, on the end of his nose. But
he said he knew he'd left box or
trunk in somebody's care-Mrs- HinL-
els, think. or the wife of some of the
sergeants. He was nosing around the
landresses' quarters half the evening""
WAS he? Did he get anything?'
He did. He got some important IN
formation. Mrs. Clancy torld him
she'd black his eye for him if he stuck
his red head inside the door, and while
she was entertaining the gentleman
Mrs. HinK,e ran up to the post with
box, and when she came back The teller
was talking about search warrant.
It's little of Schramm's they'd inG at
Ouid Hinkle's now. She's took it up 70
the officers quarters, whatever it is.
And then Morgan remembered the
eager voice IL his kitchen the night be-
fore, and Lots announcement that it
was Mrs. HiR5el who beg2ed to see
Constance, and a new light flashed
across his mind, Il new shadow fell
athwart his path. What if the author

equipments to be sent to distant com
mand. The glad June sunshine was
the mountain breeze was fresh and
bracing. The men were chatting in
low tones over their work, and the talk
was only of the robbery. Graves was
in town, in consultation with the civil
authorities. The local morning paper
had but two topics to discuss, the In
dian outbreak and the robbery. 1t had
but one theory: the Indians were the
malefactors in the first case, and the
soldiers in the second. That cowboys
or settlers, ranchmen or road-agents,
could be the real culprits was not for
an instant to be believed. Two soldiers
closely answering the description given
by Mr.. Lacy, the paymaster's clerk,
had been in town for several hours the
previous day, patronizing stables, sa-
looms and restaurants, and literally
supplied with money, had ridden away
as soon as details of the robbery were
being circulated about the streets, and
they were now lat 1arge'-that ex-
pressive term which is used by the
press when it desires to imply that the
party enjoying his constitutional
rights is probably fugitive from JUS
tice. The sheriff, with efficient
posses" was securing the country in
pursuit. Officials at the fort, profess
ing to doubt the evidence laid before
them, had refused to cooperate with
the civil authorities in securing their
arrest. and had insisted that the men

Here's the latest, Morgan. Schultz
and Schramm took dinner together at
Conway's restaurant, leaving their
horses at the Empire stable, and didn't
start until nearly three o'clock. The
sheriff has sent a posse after them.
He claims that Lacy's description of

''Blatherskite!'' said Morgan.
''Well, that isn't all. Rhetts got a

the connecting doorway. Cropping in

There seems to be regular process
carried on in the mind throughout its
whole existence by which ideas of
memory are converted into ideas of
conception If a poet writes two or
three hundred verses, very many of
the combinations of words, perhaps
whole verses, will be faithful copies of
what he has once remember and
which Invested of all the marks of
their origin have reappeared to the
writer as productions of his own
brain. In the same manner, in fancy
landscape, or in ground laid out by
man of taste, many of the combina-
tions are in all probability copies of
real scenes, which the person who in
troduced them could once have re-
ferred to some particular spot, but
have now become his own property,

former master-like domestic animals
which run away into the woods and
