DIGESTION AND WORK.
HOW SICK PEOPLE MAY SAVE THEIR
ENERGY.

1t is as hard work for some people to digest
their dinner as it is for normal man to walk
ten miles.
after dinner rest a while" This is an
old saying. IL means that if after eating
heavy meal you try to do hard work you will
exhaust all your energy, There will be none
left for your stomach. Your stomach needs
energy to work just as your leg or arm does
Sick people want energy. They seldom
have enough for their stomach. Their di-
gestion is out of order and they want to
know the reason. It's simple enough as we
have told it.
What they ought to do is to save their
stomachs from hard work until it is capable
of doing it, just as they rest their tired backs
by lying down.
This they can do by using artiicially di-
gested food. Shaker Digestive Cordial con
tains such food not only this, but it is
capable of digesting other foods in the
stomach.
Shaker Digestive Cordial affords nourish-
ment and creates new energy as soon as it is
swallowed. Ordinary food first has to be
digested Shaker Digestive Cordial while
creating new energy does not eXpend any.
1t gives the stomach no work to do. 1t will
make thin people fat Sick people are
naturally thin. Getting thin is a sign of
sickness person may be born thin, and
naturally remain so. Such one is not
necessarily sick. All Druggists keep it and
10 cent sample bottle may first be tried.

THE scHoMBURGH LINE.
Important Documentt Showing the Fallacy
of Englands Venezuelan Claim.

of Englands Venezuelan Claim,
LONDON, Jan. 3.-The special correspon-
dent of The Chronicle telcgraphs to his
paper the official correspondence, hitherto
unpublished, between the governments of
Great Britain and Venezuela during the
period between Novem 1910, when Sir
Robert Schomburgh was appointed com
missioner by the British government to
survey the western territory of British
Guiana, and April, 1872 when England
finally removed the boundary posts which
he had set at various points in that terri
tory to form the so-called Schomburgh
line
1t appears from this correspondence that
on Oct 3, 1871, Senor Fortique, Vcnezue-
Ian minister in London wrote TO Lord
Aberdeen, secretary of state for foreign af-
fairs expressing surprise at the erection
of British sentry box upon Venezuelan
territory, and urging the necessity oi en-
tering upon "a treaty of boundlries rs a
previous step to the ftxiatiou oi iuits
Lord Aberdeen replied to this ON Oct
2l, saying that he had recaiv, Mr. Robert
Schomburgh's report. ut upFpars, 10 d
Aberdeen continued, "thaJ Mr. Robert
Schomburgh planted the boundary posts
at certain points in the country he sur
veyed, and that he WA, fully aware that
the dcmarkation SO made was merely n
preliminary measure open to future dis
cussion between the governments Of
Great Britain and Venezuela"
Senior Fortique replied to this on Nov.
Is, asserting that "Mr. Schomburgh doubt
less overstepped his instructions by plant
ing at point at the mouth OF the Orinoco
several posts bearing the queens initials
and he has raised the British flag at the
same place with a show of armed force. +"
No reply being received, Senor Fortique
again, on Dec. 8, addressed Lord Aber-
deem, insisting upon the conclusion of a
treaty or the removal of Mr.. Schomburgh' 5
posts.
Lord Aberdeen broke the silence on
Dec IL, confirming the Schomburgh line
as mere preliminary measure, and OBJ
jecting to the removal of the posts, (which
afford the only tangible means by which
Great Britain is prepared to discuss the
boundaries. These posts were erected for
that purpose and not, as the Venezuelan
government appears to apprehend, as in
dications of dominion and empire on the
part of Great Britain"
The Chronicles correspondent in his dis
patch then quotes Lord Salisbury's dis
patch to Secretary Olney to the effect that
these posts were removed on the distinct
understanding that Great Britain did not
thereby abandon her claim, and continues:
"Observe that there is no word Indicating
the condition asserted by Lord Salisbury.
If the foregoing documents are genuine,
and the source excludes any suspicion to
the contrary then the Schomburgh line is
proved worthless as basis for any terri
torial claim"

PennsyIvania's Poverty.

HARRISBURG, Jan. 3-Funds are low at
the state treasury, and the revenues Of this
year Will have to be dipped into to the cx-
tent of nearly S3,OOO,OOO to make up the de.
fciency of the year just ended There is a
balance of over 100000 in the general
fund but the amount due Philadelphia on
the personal property tax rcturnable and
to state institutions will almost wipe this
out. The balance now is smaller by hun
dreds Of thousands than it has been at this
period for several years, but the state fiscal
authorities think the increase of revenues
on account of improved business condi-
tions will enable them to close the year in
good shape.
