IS OFTEN THE REAL CAUSE OF A SOUR TEN
That the condition of the digestive organs has a
marked effect upon the character disposition is
truism old the hills. Old Ben Johnson
wisely said, 1.-The pleasure Of living depends upon
the liver" and 1t is fact which none may dispute
that a sunny disposition more often results from q
healthy digestion than from any other cause.
Acid dyspepsia, commonly called sour stomach or
heartburn, is caused by slow digestion Of food;
instead Of being promptly digested and converted
into blood, bone and muscle. 1t lies In the stomach
for hours. fermentng and decaying, creating gases
which cause pressure the lungs and heart, short
breath and general discomfort and irritation.
Such half digested food is indeed poor nOurish-
ment for the body brain and nerves. and the result

aches and that depressing condition usually called
the "blues," but how quickly all these disappear
when appetite and digestion are restored.
Laxative medicines only irrtate the already irri-
tated stomach and bowels and have no effect upon
actual digestion Of food
The sensible course to follow Is to make use Of
simple natural digestives like Stuart's Dyspepsia
Tablets after meals until the stomach has chance
to recuperate.
The natural digestives which every healthy stom-
ach contains peptOnes, diastase and Hydro

Henry Kirkpatrick Of Lawrence, Mass. says:
''Men and women whose occupation preclddes an

Upon the recommendation Of the par
don board, the governor to-day issued
pardons to William Harris, tof Logan
county. convicted Of rape In 1895, and
sentenced to twenty years: Charles
johnson, of Lincoln county. convicted
OF murder in the second degree in 1898
and sentenced to slxyears. and Edward
yolgamot sent from Berkeley county In
June for one year for grand larceny.
The developments in the Harris case
show very conclusipely that the father
OF the girl alleged to have been raped
compelled the girl to testify. falsely
against the accused because he had q
grudge against him. and the girl has
confessed to the fact. 5
In the johnson case. II has developed
that he killed a man who threatened to
break up his family and did try to kill
him. The Volgnmot case developed
from the theft OF small amount Of
coal from a railroad company at Mar
tinsburg. which at best was only petit
larceny. In each Of the cases, the gov
ernor acted promptly upon the recon-
mendatlon OF the board.
