A PEOPLE or FEW WORDS.

"Let your speech be yea, yea, and nay.
nay" says the Good Book, for whose
ever is more than these cometh of evil.
The Shakers abide by the spirit OF this
rulo, Their words are few, simple, sincere
and direct. They waste no energy in idle
talk; they use it In thinking and doing.
And whatever they do they do with their
might. They are content with nothing
short of tho essence and principle of the
things they investigate. They take pains
and are patient. And thus tho doors Of
many strange truths open to them. In
this way they discovered what may almost
be called the unity Of disease. A vener-
able Shaker says OF IT.; 1t Is said one
mans meat Is another mans poison.
That is but half the truth. Any mans
meat is any mans poison, under certain
conditions. Ii the grain never got further
than tho hopper we should never have
bread; and if bread never got further than
the stomach we should never have strength.
When the stomach Is torpid helpless and
ini1amcd the food lies In IL and rots This
fermentation produces poisons which may,
and often do, disorder every other organ
and function of the body This is indl-
gestion or dyspepsia, with many symp.
toms and DISCUSSES. Cure 1t and you cure
nine tcnths of your complaints" These
words We're uttered many years ago.
