An active mind, suffering from
overexertion, grief, trouble, worry of
household cares, demands from the
body greater amount Of fuel for the
vital fires than the digestive organism
can supply. 1t requires a certain
amount of vital force to operate the
human machine, and when all the
available supply of force is absorbed
by the overworked brain there is moth
ing left for the stomach. 1t is easy
now to understand why irritability
and dyspepsia have become almost
synonymous; why nervous person is
usually so very particular and capri
cious about food. It is an almost I'M
disputed fact that no marked progress
can be made toward the ultimate cure

entirely. Seeing how much benefit received
from the medicine, my husband, who suffered
from nervous dyspepsia and indigestion in a

was able to sleep but little. After using three

The grenadiers. the senior of British
regiments which compose the brigade
of guards, got it's name from the fact
that toward the end Of the eighteenth
century the men were armed with
hand grenades to throw among the
enemy. They had to be in the trent
of the fighting line; hence they gained
reputation for bravery and the name
Of the 'grenadiers." The badge Of the

Changes Of Clirnate.

Prot. Arrhenius, who has recent
" investigated the causes of secular
variations in the temperature at the
earth's surface, thinks that they are
more probably due to changes in the
amount Of carbonic acid in the atmos-
phere than to variations in the heat OF
the sun. If the amount of carbonic acid
that the air now contains were dimin-
ished little more than one-half, the
mean temperature all over the earth
would drop about eight degrees, which
would be sufficient to bring on another
glacial period. On the other hand, an
increase OF carbonic acid to between
two and three times its present amount
would raise the mean temperature Is
degrees and renew the hot times Of the
Eocene epoch. Youths Companion.

TATTooING OUT OF FAVOR.
The Berullon System of Identiacae
tion the Cause Of It-BecOm-
Ing Unpopular.

Warden c. c. McClaughrey, Of the
Wisconsin state prison, says that the
Bertillon system Of measurements is
away ahead of the achievements Of
Sherlock Holmes in the detection Of
crime. Under the direction of DIR. r.
G. Messer this system is well in hand
at the Waupun prison. 1t was devised
in 1880 by NJ. Alphcnse Bertillon, the
well-knownF French anthropologist, who
figured in the Dreyfus case, and was i'm
troduced in Paris in 1882.
The Bertillon system was first intro
duced in this country by Maj. Nc
Claughrey, father Of the warden Of the
Wisconsin prison. Maj. McClaughrey
was then warden Of the Illinois state
prison, at Joliet. Matthew Wilson Nc
Claughrey, . younger brother Of the
Wisconsin warden, installed the system
at the Waupun prison and at the cen-
trail police station in this city. For
manyyears he has been engaged in iden-
tifcation and detective work, complct.
ing his education as an expert in Paris
under M. Bertillon. Mr.. McClaughrey
was injured while installing the system
at the Wisconsin prison, convict who
was being measured striking him on
the head.
Since the introduction of the Ber-
tillon system there has been waning
of the tattoo fad. There was a time
when a tattoo mark was regarded a.
Indispensable by men who made law
breaking their business. They consid-
cred it sort of charm, and believed
that to certain extent the indelible
ink figures that adorned their breasts
OF. arms made them immune to arrest.
But that day has gone by. The clever
modern crook knows that the tattoo
is . hoodoo. Under the Bertillon sys4
tenn of registration Of the marks upos
a mans body it is . certain clew TO the
Identification Of prisoners.
"There is one peculiar thing about
tattoo marks" said member Of tho
state board of control recently. "Solue
time ago, when the board was hearing
prisoners at Waupun, took occasion
to ask every man who came before W
il he had any tattoo marks upon his
body. Most Of the men had, but
took notice that the real clever Grim.
inals had fewer marks than the bung-
ling fellows. I learned that most Of
the prisoners had been tattooed by the
same man. It seems that the fellow
made q practice Of securing short Jail
sentences in various places, and while
in Jail tattooed his fellow w-prisoners, ac-
cepting whatever amount Of money
they were able to pay. You'll never see
a flag design tattoo on real tough man.
For some. reason the. fellow who il
real vicious doesn't like to have the
national emblem pricked into his skin.
He much prefers an anchor or SER
