Leg gives For Women

The costume of the Pu Yuan Pen-jen
women in the Shan states is very strik-
Ing, consisting of cloth hood, an open
jacket and pair of short white trou-
sers reaching barely to the knee. But
the most important, though the least
noticeable, part Of their costume is
their colored cloth CATERS. These the
women are obliged to wear, as without
them it is believed they would be able
to fly away, leaving their husbands
and sweethearts sorrowful. This legend
recalls a custom of ancient Carthage,
where the unmarried women wore
metal leg gives, which were severed
only during the marriage ceremony.
The Akkas, also a Wont tribe, wear
similar CATERS, though l do not think
the same Importance is attached to
them. 1t is probably an emblem of
some old custom of which the true sig,
nificance has been forgotten. - Geo

CONDITION OF CROPS.
Weekly Summary Prepared by the
Agricultural Department..

l.
The following summary of crop condi-
tions has been issued by the Agricultural
Department:
THE droughty conditions in the Atlantic
Coast districts have been relieved by album
dant rains, which, however. came too late
to be of material benefit to many crops.
Drought continues in the Ohio and central
Mississippi valleys and portions of the
lower lake region. while excessive rains
have retarded work and damaged crops in
Nebraska, Minnesota, and the Dakotas.
Very general complaint of damage espe-
cially to fruit, by high winds along the
path of the tropical storm from the Mis-
souri, Valley over the northern districts
20 the eastward is reported. The contin-
ued prevalence of high temperatures has
been favorable for maturing crops.
While light to heavy frosts occurred in
the upper Mississippi and upper Missouri
valleys on the morning of the 18th. the
corn crop in those districts was SO far ma
tured as to be practically safe from in
jury, and although some damage from high
winds is reported from Illinois and Indiana,
the general conditions OF the week have
been favorable to corn. large part of
the crop has been cut in the States Of the
central valleys, and some husking has
been done.
Heavy rains have caused damage to
cotton in South Carolina, Georgia, Florida,
and Alabama. No Improvement in the con-
dition of cotton is reported from the cen
trail portion Of the cotton belt. except in
southern Louisiana. where as a whole the
prospects are somewhat better, while in
Texas the tropical storm of the Sth and 9th
completely destroyed the crop in the south
ern portion of It's path and damaged II in
the central and northern portions. Out
side of the storm area cotton made favor
able progress in Texas. although insects
caused damage in some localities. The re-
ports generally indicate that cotton is
opening rapidly and that picking is well
advanced and will be completed at a much
earlier date than usual.
Tobacco cutting. where unfinished, has
progressed favorably, nearly the whole of
the crop being now secured. Pennsylvania,
Maryland Virginia, and Kentucky being
the only States in which cutting has not
been finished.
'The prospects for apples have been
very materially reduced as result of the
damage caused by the high winds of the
past week. which blew the fruit from the
trees in large quantities in nearly all of
the principal apple producing States In
New York the reports indicate that prob
ably more than one-half OF the crop has
been blown from the trees
THE soil is generally in excellent con-
dition for blowing 3ad seeding. which work
has been vigorously pushed, except in the
States Of the Ohio and Mississippi valleys.

sown grain in Kansas. Nebraska. and
Oklahoma is already up'

THEORIES NBoUTFoop.
Also Fe,, Fact.oon the Same Sub

1ect..
We hear much nowadays about health
foods and hygienic living, about vegeta-
rianism, and many other fads along the
same line.
Restaurants may be found in the larger
cities where n meat pastry. or coffee is
served and the food crank is in his glory,
and arguments ard theories galore ad-
vanced to prove that meat was never in
tended for human stomachs, and almost
make us believe thatlo sturdy ancestors
who lived four score years in robust health
on roast beef pork, and mutton must have
been grossly ignorant of the laws of health.
Our forefathers had other things to do
than formulate theories about the food they
ate. A warm welcome was extended to
any kind from bacon to acorns.
A healthy appetite and common sense
are excellent guides to follow in matters
of diet, and .rixed diet of grains, fruits,
and meats is undoubtedly the best.
AS compared with grains and vegetables.
meat furnishes the most nutriment in
highly concentrated form and is digested
and is assmilated more quickly than yege-
tables and grains
DR.. Julius Remmson on this subject says:
Nervous persons, people run down in
health and OF low vitality, should eat meat
and plenty of it. If the digestion is too
feeble at first it may be easily corrected
by the regular use of Stuart's Dyspepsia
Tablets after each meal Two of these ex-
cellent tablets taken after dinner will di
gest several thousand grains of meat, eggs,
and other animal foot in three hours, and
no matter how weak the stomach may be,
no trouble will be experienced il regular
practice is made OF using Stuart's Dyspep-
STA Tablets, because they supply the pep
sin and diastase necessary to perfect di-
gestion, and every form OF Indigestion will
be overcome by their use.
That large class of people who come I'M
der the head Of nervcus dyspeptics should
digestion by the daily use of safe, harm
pepsia Tablets. COMPOSED Of the natural
digestive principles, pepsin, diastase, fruit
acids, and salts, which actually perform
the work Of digestion. Cheap cathartic
medicines, masquerading under the name
OF dyspepsia cures. are useless for indi-
gestion, as they have absolutely no effect
upon the actual digestion of food.
Dyspepsia in all its many forms is SIM
ply failure of the stomach to digest fooi
and the sensible way to solve the riddle
and cure the dyspepsia is to make daily
use at meal time of preparation like Stu
arts Dyspepsia TaSlets. which is endorsed
by the medical profession and known to
contain active digestive principles.
All druggists sell Stuart's Dyspepsia
Tablets at so cents for full treatment.
