go, he said, II shall try again, and the
next time l try I'll make sure work OF

Moved by the desire to be of some help,
ard also seeming a romantic story, the
reporter sought an interview. Here was,
peThaIs, case of unrequited affection. or
possibly remorse for some past crime.
Perhaps some ghostly Banquo would not

day and disturbed his sleep by night
The Interview was brief 1t began and
ended with one question and its terse

crime is in itself a disease. 1t is hard
for the hearty eating, sourd sleeping, hard
working man, who has a digestion, AS ne
says, like an ostrich" to find excuse
for mans mlsdoings ia the condition
of his stomach. But the man who has

exercised gives way, and harsh words eud

by this one disease alone sufficiently
emphasizes the necessity OF the care Of
the stomach in health, and its cure IL
disease. Dyspepsia affects both brain ani
body; 1t involves the nervous system and
produces irrltability Of temper, nervous
ness ard sleeplessness Just what posi-
bilities OF suffering are connected with
a diseased tomach may be gathered from
