All of Savannah's delegates to the South
Georgia Conference returned home yester-

one that believeth." The most impressive
meeting of the conference however was
on Sunday night when the Memorial SER

ticularly so by the fact that among the
men mourned were two of the most prom
inent figures in Georgia Methodism for
several years, Rev. T. T. Christian and

An Old Theory
Exploded
Food not Digested in the
Stomach.
This Organ only Prepares it for Assimi
latiOn by the lntestines.

Until a few months ago the medical
profession, as we'll as the public at LARGE.
have always believed that food was
olgested IN the stomach; but thanks to
science, they are now enabled to follow
the whole process of digestion with their
own eyes from the moment food enters
the mouth until it is taken into the sys-
TEN, or carried off through the bowels.
Heretofore all remedies for the cure of
dyspepsia have been given with the idea
OF assisting the stomach to digest food,
and the discovery that this organ does
not digest 1t at all explains the cause of
their failure to cure the disease, and its
constant increase in spite of the thou
sand and one remedies used. Another
and equally important discovery was
also made that there are three distinct
kinds of dyspepsia, two of which require
different remedies, and the remedy for
one must be exactly opposite to that
of the other in character. For in
stance, acid dyspepsia requires an aka
line treatment; Indigestion an acid
treatment these combined and given
In one dose neutralize each other. con-
sequently, cannot be given together with
effect. The third and most dangerous
OF all, Intestinal dyspepsia) requires
germicide which must be harmless, and
yet strong enough to destroy the bacilli
which cause the disease. Understand
ing this and knowing that they possess
the only germicide which can be taken
internally without injury, (Hyomei)
the R. T. Booth Company have placed
on the market dyspepsia cure, and
the only one made which treats every
phase of the disease separately. That
it has been a success is shown by the fact
that they guarantee it j.; some
thing never done before, and
agree to return the money if cure is
not effected.
