A SOUR STOMACH
Is Often the Real Cause of Sour
Temper.

That the condition of the digestive
organs has marked effect upon the
character or disposition is a truism as
old as the hills. Old Ben Johnson
wisely said "the pleasure of living de-
pends upon the liver" and 1t is a fact
which none may dispute that a sunny
disposition more often results from
a 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, IL Hes In
the stomach for hours. fermenting and
decaying, creating gases which cause
pressure on the lungs and heart short
breath and general discomfort and ir-
ritation.
Such half digested food is indeed
poor nourishment for the body. brain
and nerves and the result is shown
in irritable tempers, unaccountable
headaches and that depressing condi-
tion called the "blues" but how quick
ly all these disappear when appetite
and digestion are restored.
Laxative medicines only irritate the
and have no effect upon actual diSes-
ton 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 stomach contains are pop
y. al a. nd
Tactic acids, and when any of them
are lacking the trouble begins; the
reason Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are
so valuable and successful in curing
stomach troubles Is because they con-
tain, in II pleasant concentrated tablet
form all these absolutely necessary
essentials for perfect digestion and as
sim!lation of food.
Henry Kirkpatrick, of Lawrence,
Mass, says: Men and women whose
occupation precludes an active out
door life should make it a daily prac-
tice to use Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets
after meals. / have done so myself and
know positively that l owe my pres
cnt health and viSor to their daily
use.
PROM the time | vas %, when l
graduated from school with broken
health from overworlt, until l was 81,
l scarcely knew what ii was to be
free from stomach weakness; l had
no appetite whatever for breakfast
and very little for any other meal.
/ had acidity and heartburn nearly
every day and sometimes was alarmed
by irregularty and palpitation OF the
heart, but all this gradually disap-
| pcarcd after | began using Stuarts
| Dyspepsia Tablets and I can eat my
| meals with relish and satisfaction
which had not known since l was Il
| growing boy"
The success and popularity of stu
arts dyspepsia Tablets is enormous,
| but it is deserved, and every druggist
! in the United states, Canada and
| Great Britain has Il good word for this

THE SOY BEAN.
Many Uses to Which This Oriental
Vegetable Can Be Put.

From the New York SUM-
or all vegetables of the pea ana
bean families. the most important IN
Japan and China is the soy bean. It's
remarkably high percentage of pro-
tein ga per cent? and of fat NI per
cent? attracted the attention OF Eu-
ropeans some twenty-five years ago,
Since that time 1t has been cultivateG
10 some extent both in Europe and
America, chiefly as a forage crop ana
as a fertilizer of the soil. Next to rica
the SOW bean is the most important
food staple of the Far East. 1t Is
eaten TO a small extent boiled like
other beans, but in China and Japan II
is elaborated into d variety OF pro-
ducts, all of which have high per-
centage of protein, and when eaten in
connection with the, chief staple food,
rice. which Is deficient in that consti-
tuert, helps to make a well-balanced
nourishment. Some of these products
are eaten at every meal and by rich
and poor alike, especially in the Jap
anese and Chinese interior provinces,
where sea food is not to be had. one
of the most important OF these pre-
variations is shown, and il is the only
one that has been introduced to any
extent into other countries, where 1t
is known as soy sauce. TO make 1t, a
mixture of the cooked beans with
roasted wheat flour and salt Is fer
mented for some years in casks with
special' ferment. The result is n
thick, brown liquid, having pungent
and agreeable taste.
There are also several varieties of
bean cheese. or similar products,
made from this vegetable, which are
very important foods. These are nat

from soy beans that have been boiled
for several hours until very soft, small
portions of the still hot mass being
