Going into decline" How often do
we hear this expression. What does it
mean? 1t means that people are losing
flesh, growing thin, wasting.
The way to correct this condition is to
improve the digestion. The condition
arises from an inability to- eat and diges
food. In fact food does more harm thar
good because it fer1nents and putrefes il
the stomach, developing poisonous sub
stances which when absorbed cause va
rious disorders.
What is required is that the stomach
be made to perform its duties. The Sha

He Didn't Mind.

Andrew Lang, in the illustrated Lon
don News, gives an anecdote of Dean
Stanley's amiable simplicity. The dean
was invited out to dinner, and was
very late. When he arrived his collar
was unfastened, and the ends vibrated
like little white wings about the head
of cherub People could not but look
at him with curiosity during the din
ner, and at length, with due precau-
ton, his hostess ventured to ask him
If he knew that his collar had broken
adrift.
"Oh, yes!" said the dean. do you
mind?"
Not at all, said the lady
"Then / don't mind either" answer
ed the dean. "The button dropped off
while was DRESSING" and he contin-
ued his conversation.
1T was not" says Mr. Lang, "ab-
sence of mind, but unrlvalled presence
of mind that Stanley displayed on this
occasion. Any other human being
than he would have been at the point
of changing his shirt"

The ticket agent broke into laugh
the loud, coarse laugh Of rustic. II
resounded through the little empty sta
ton, and attracted the attention OF the
baggage-master and two or three truck
men who were standing outside, walt
ing for the south-bound freight. II
struck them all as huge joke, moth
ing more; and they gathered IN circle
about the poor, demented creature
guying him ruthlessly. The rural
temperament is sympathetic only in
certain cases. and this did not appeal
to them. They regarded 1t as a SORT
of free circus, with the mailman for
clown. Their victim was soon bounded
to absolute frenzy, and raved inco'
herently.
