wrong man. 1t was that way when the
c, l.. of the Boarding house tackled n
miserable looking fellow boarder who
was tortured by dyspepsia. Hello
Smith," he cried. "aren't you feeling
well?" And Smith growled back: Its
none of your business how I'm feeling"
Talk about adding insult to injury!
What could be any worse than asking a
man who had suffering tamped all over
him, Aren't you feeling well?"
It's rather hard for the dyspeptic to
make a stranger to the disease under
stand just how much suffering dyspepsia
can cause. Words don't express it.
That terrible gnawing sensation in the
stomach is past description. Even after
you have recited the specific aches and
pains there are no terms to express the
cumulative and combined effects of them
all upon both mind and body.
DON'T CULTIVATE DYSPEPSIA.
That would seeem unnecessary advice,
yet it is a fact that in the main. peopl.
who finally become dyspetics seem to
have studied how quickest to bring on The
disease They eat irregularly. They eat
eat heartily when they are tired with a
days work and the stomach needs rest
instead Of exercise. In fact If they made
study of he Quickest way to dyspepsia
or disease of the stomach in general and
its allied organs of digestion and nutri-
ton, they could not practice more sue
cessful methods.
When dyspepsia once has its grip on
the stomach the man who has expert
mented with tablets and powders and
other palliatives without permanent re-
lief finds himself asking the question,
Am l ever going to be well again so
that l can eat with appetite and enjoy
ment?'
The one necessity to the recovery of
health is the cure of diseases of the
stomach and other organs of digestion
and nutrition. Tablets of soda, mint,
ETC.. will for the moment alter the con-
dition in the stomach. but they won't
alter the condition of the stomach itself.
These things are therefore merely pal
liatives. Not only do they not cure but
by affording Temporarily relief they lull
the victim into false security until he

Washington, July 26.-The past twenty
four hours probably have been the most
favorable to the States of the corn belt
since the existing hot wave began nearly
forty days ago. Rains, generally light in
amount, have fallen in Western Kansas
Western Nebraska, Southwestern Mis-
Gouri, Central Iowa, Arkansas. and a lit
tie in Oklahoma and the prospects seem
to be favorable for continuation tomor-
row OF more numerous showers in the
section covered by these States and Ter
ritories. On Sunday showers are looked
for in Northern Illinois and Northern In
diana. Still, there has been no general
rain of which the crops stand in so much
need and there are no immediate pros
poets of any.
On the whole the Weather Bureau Off
Gals here regard the situation as some
what improved. Incidental to the rains
the temperatures officially reported today
were somewhat lower than on yesterday
evening. However, they range from %
to 100 in the corn belt. Conditions will

hot with the possibility of relief from
