Coyotes are reported near Santa

commissioners to take some steps to
exteFminate them. They are very
dangerous, seeming to be affected
with rabies, or something ,ery
similar to genuine hydrophobia,

Interesting Experience Of an Indian
opolis Gentleman.
lets

No trouble is more common or
more misunderstood than nervous
dyspepsia. People having it think
that their nerves are to blame and
are surprised that they are not cured
by nerve medicine and spring RENE
dies; the real seat of the mischief is
lost sight of; the stomach is the
organ to be looked after.
Nervous dyspeptics often do not
have any pain whatever in the sto-
mach, nor perhaps any of the usual
symptoms of stomach weakness.
Nervous dyspepsia shows itself not
in the stomach so much as in nearly
every other organ in some cases the
heart palpitates and is irregular; in
others the Kidneys are affected; in
others the bowels are constipated,
with headaches; still others are
troubled with accumulation of gas,
sour risings and heartburn.
