IN reality indigestion or dyspepsia is the
disease of all diseases. It makes other
diseases possible. 1t involves the blood
and the heart, lungs, liver, kidneys
every organ Of the body.
WEAK STOMACH WEAK MAN.
That uweak" stomach causes gem
eral physical weakness may easily be
understood. Food is the staff of life.
The source of all physical strength is
food. But before the body can receive
strength from what is eaten the food
must be digested and assimilated. To
convert the food eaten into nutrition is
the Office of the stomach and the other
organs of digestion and nutrition. When
tile stomach is "weak" the food received
into it is only partly digested and as
simulated the body loses its proper sup
ply Of nutrition and grows proportion
ately weak. The capacity of the stomach
in its normal health and use equals the
nutritive demands of the body. State
When the stomach scweak" its capacity
is reduced proportionately. It may be
that ten or twenty per cent. of the lutri-
wasted. That ten or twenty per cent of
iOSS hutIitiOh luuSl SilCA ICu
or twenty per cent. loss of physical
strength.
WHERE STRENGTH COMES FROM.
Physical strength comes from food and
from food alone. If man has enough
to eat and eats enough, there's no reason
why he Should not have a perfectly
nourished and healthy body. If he IS
not we'll nourished, If lie is losing weight,
then the stomach Is weak or diseased,
whether lie knows it or not. If he knows
he has stomach utrouble," then he may
be sure that the trouble will not stop
with the stomach, but will reach out to
other organs Of the body dependent on
the stomach for nutrition.

Number Of Democratic
Districts
Is Intended to be Re-
duced to Four.
The Gerrymander Offends Even
the Republicans.

Columbus, o., Nov. 13.-Now that
election Is over the politicians are
planning for the work of the Legisla-
ture, and naturally one of the most
interesting and important items In this
connection is the redistricting Of the
State
1t Is said that the plan which has
the approval of the leaders and all
Republican Congressman will take
Fairfield county out Of this district
and adding 1t to Grosvenor's district,
the Eleventh, In the place OF Ross
county, which is added to the Tenth
district. In place Of Fairfield county
with Its big Democratic majority the
Republican leaders propose to add
Delaware and Morrow, with CON.
bined Republicanmatirity of some 500
or 1000. This would make the capt.
tai district Republican, but still II
might be carried by a popular Dem
ocrat. This arrangement as to this
district has been agreed to by Con
gressmen Tompkns, Warrick and
Grosvenor
The other big change proposed Is IN
the Third district, which Is Demo.
cratic, like the Twelfth, when strong
candidate is running, but which, like
the Twelfth, is now represented by a
Republican. The plan Is to take away
treble and add to the district Warren
county, with Its strong Republican
majority. The Cleveland districts will
be so redistricted as to make both
strongly Republican, beyond any pos
sible doubt.
These proposed changes will give the
Republicans II of the 81 Congressmen
There are, however, a number of prom.
met Republicans who believe that ia
enact a bill to still further disfran.
chise the Democrats of the State
would be to invite criticism and pos.
sible defeat at the polls. The Demo
Gratis have about 100000 in the State
to possible $4,000 of Republicans
which would naturally entitle the
Democrats to 10 and the Republicans
to II Congressman. To reduce this
division to II to Is so manifestly
unfair that even Republicans oppose
It.

urbs, to discuss ways and means of
averting starvation imperial schemes
of national ACKNOWLEDGMENT are not
likely to be well considered by the
masses of the people, nor, for that
matter, by their representatives in the
Reichstadt.
Meanwhile the Agrariahs are press
ing for added advantage in the matter
Of protective duties which will further
increase the cost of living to the COM
mon people, and their insistence has
probably given the Emperor so much
annoyance that his threat was per-
fectly natural outburst Of impatience
at the Unsuitable rapacity Of the land
owning class, who have long needed
such a reminder that they are not the
only element of the population of Prus-
sla having rights which the Govern
ment is under obligations to respect.
The estimate Of The London Times cor
respondent that there are $4,000 I'M
employed artisans In Berlin alone pre-
sents very serious problem, and one
which It Is not surprising the Emper
or considers of great official and per-
sonal interest. Those who remember
the time when an army of unemployed
workmen fell in behind the relief
guard and marched the length of I'm
ter der linden from the Brandenbur-
ger Thor to the Schloss to make their
presence and needs known to tho EN-
peror In respectful and silent appeal,
will have no difficulty in understand
ing that a monarch not by any means
Indifferent TO the welfare Of his people
Just now has something to think about
besides schemes for making food dear
er. Hence the suggestion relative to
smashing things, which would nave been
extremely foolish If 1t had referred
to anything he proposed to do to the
nations which would not open their
doors wider to German manufacturers
while German doors are double locked
against their food products.
1t is not likely that the Emperor's
environment is favorable to clear think
ing on economic questions, but his nat
lral impulslveness will probably not
permit him to remain Indifferent to
conditions from which his people are
suffering; and If this view Of the case
Is correct, the solution of the problem
now confronting him may be the more
crcdltable to his heart than to his
Judgment in economic matters. Re-
forms which smash abuses are some
times necessary, but they are likely to
partake more of the character of the
method of President Dlaz in dealing
with the corner in Mexican corn than
Of progress along safe lines Of eco
nomIc development.

THE .. 5. STANDARD.
No Man Is Stronger Than
His Stomach.

The man who seeks to enlist in the
U. S. Army must be physically sound.
There Is minimum standard of height
and men under that standard, no matter
how healthy, will not be accepted. But
aside from height the requirement is a
sound physical condition, and this con-
dition depends in chief upon the health
of the stomach and its allied organs of
digestion and nutrition. Many a man
has been rejected by the medical ex-
aminer who appeared externally to
possess all the physical requirements of
a good soldier. But the examiner looks
below the surface. He knows when the
stomach is weak, and he knows also that
no man is stronger than his stomach.

discomfort rather than disease. But

THE NIMROD'S MISTAKES.

Some queer mistakes
The hunter makes
When in the woods he's cunning,
And oft his aim
At fanced game
Creates effect that's stunning.
Sometimes he sees
Among the trees
An object that is lodging;
'Tis quail that's large
He thinks, and charge
OF shot in cow he's lodging.
There's something black,
Like turkeys back,
And he's intent on gobbling;
He bangs away,
Then hears neigh,
And off a horse goes hobbling.
What seems to him
A pheasant trim
Appears, and he is shooting:
A squcal is heard,
Twas not bird,
But pig that there was roofing,
Mid wooded clumps
A squirrel jumps,
He thinks, and shot are flying;
Then comes yell,
Tor, sad to tell,
A chum for help is crying
Such queer mistakes
The hunter makes,
When he for game is cunning,
That people wise,
Now realize
The woods they must be stunning.

But If a "weak " stomach
makes a weak man that
weakness must be distri-
buted among all the parts
and organs which, taken
as a whole, make up the
physical man. The rela-
ton Of the stomach to the
physical organs is like the
relation of the corn to the
soil in which it grows. If
the soil abounds in the
nutrition which makes
corn, then the stalk is tall,
the leaves broad, the ears
heavy. If the soil is poor
or weak then the corn is
weak and it is weak all
over, in stalk, leaf and ear.
Every part of the corn
shares in the lack of nu-
tritive elements in the
soil. It's so with the
stomach. When it is
"weak and there is loss
of nutrition, every organ
shares that loss = heart,

The Potato Crop.

A short time ago the experiment sta
ton at Burlington sent out word that the
potato blight and rot threatened to do
serious damage in Vermont this fall.
Later reports from the same source say
that the fears of trouble were all real
lied, and that there has been In fact a
considerable amount OF loss already to
potato growers. The rot follows the late
blight and comes from the same cause.
Those who have late blight in their fields,
therefore, are bound to have rot; and in
all such cases special care ought to be
taken In sorting and storing the potatoes
for winter. The experiment station still
insists that proper spraying, backed up
by proper cultivation, will protect the
potato crop from these diseases. Con-
tinued experiments and practical field
tests covering a period of ten years, or
more, have proved this beyond the
possibility of doubt. Even now, In the
latter part of September, when most
potato vines are dead, and many fi4lis
of potatoes already dug, the experiment
station potato fields are as green aud
growing AS any time in July or August
and the potato experts claim that they are
making potatoes at the rate of % TO 30
bushels week for every acre. Wouldn't
II pay potato growers TO look into that
matter?
