An Old Theory
Exploded
Food Not Digested in the
Stomach.
This Organ Only Prepares 1t For
Assimilation by the Intestines.

Until a few months ago the medical
profession, as well as the public at large,
have always believed that food was di-
gested in the stomach; but thanks to sci
ence, 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 it at all explains the cause OF
their failure to cure the disease, and its
constant increase in spite of the thous-
and 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 Tor
one must be exactly opposite to that OF
the other in character. For instance,
acid dyspepsia requires an alkaline treat
ment; indigestion an acid treatment;
these combined and given in one dose
neutralize each other, consequently, can
not be given together with effect. The
third and most dangerous Of all Qntes-
final dvspepsia), requires germacide
which must be harmless, and yet strong
enough to destroy the bacilli which cause
the disease. Understanding this ana
knowing that they possess the only ger
macide which can be taken internally
without injury, HyomeD the R. I. 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 guaran-
tee it; something never done before, and
agree to return the money if a cure Is
uOt effected

WITH DEAD SISTERS CHILD

Penniless and with a 6-weeks' old
snotherless baby in her arms, Miss Anna
Olmstead arrived in Wichita Saturday
from Cincinnati, Ohio, in search of rela-
tives. The relatives had moved away
and Miss Olmstead, who is only 16 years
old, and her dead sisters baby were left
on the charity Of the city. She was di-
rected to the police station, where Major
Burr, city sanitary commissioner, made
arrangements for their boarding at the
City hotel until the county commission
ers could act. Yesterday afternoon Miss
Olmstead appeared before Judge Kirk Of
the city court and made a statement OF
her case. Judge Buckner was with her.
representing the Children's Home. After
listening to the young ladys pitiful story
Judge Kirk committed the infant to the
Children's Home, where it will have the
tender care it so much needs. Miss Ohm
stead left last night for Torrance, Kan,
where she has a cousin with whom she
will stay until able to get to nearer rela-
tives or find a way to earn livelihood.
Miss Olmstead's tender care and devo-
ter was worthy of the high praise given
her yesterday by those familiar with the
circumstances. In her statement TO Judge
Kirk Miss Olmstead said that she resid-
ed in this city a short time until last
April. when she went to Cincinnati to
live with her married sister, Mrs. Frank
Marsh, as both her parents were dead.
There was born to Mr.. and Mrs. Marsh
last October this baby. and five hours
after its birth the mother died. It was
fine baby boy and Miss Olmstead loved 1t
and her sister so well that she at once
resolved to stay with her brother-in-law
and keep the child. A few days after
Mrs. Marsh was buried, according to the
girls statement Frank Marsh left the
house and never returned. Before leav-
ing he gave Miss OlmsJead Sl2 and told
her that it would be sufficient for her
expenses until his return. When he did
not return Miss Olmstead became alarm
ed and started a search for him. but no
where could he be found. She then had
TO make arrangements to leave Cincin-
matt. for she had no relatives there.
Bundling up the little motherless babe
as best she could she left last Thursday
for Wichita, intending to make her home
with an uncle, Mr.. John Marsh, who she
said had always been good to her. She
learned Sunday that her uncle and fam
lily had moved to Los Angeles, Cal, and
she having no other relatives except a
cousin at Torrance. she was compelled
to make arrangements for the baby and
60 to her cousins home.
Miss Olmstead is-a very handsome and
apparently well educated young lady
and she illicted great deal of sympa-
thy yesterday. She said she would write
her uncle at Los Angeles, and try tc
make arrangements to live with him, as
she felt that she ought not to be out il
