in reality indigestion or dyspepsia is the
disease of all diseases. 1t makes other
diseases possible. 1t involves the blood
and the heart, lungs, liver, kidneys
every organ of the body.
WEAK STOMACH WEAK MAN.
That vweak stomach causes gen
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
the 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
that normal capacity as equal to 100.
When the stomach is"weak" its capacity
is reduced proportionately. 1t may be
that ten or twenty per cent. of the lutri-
tive values of the food eaten are lost or
wasted. That ten or twenty per cent. of
lost nutrition must then represent a ten
or twenty per cent. loss of physical
strength.
WHERE STRENGTH COMES FROM.
Physical strength comes from food and
from food alone. If a 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 well nourished, if he is losing weight,
then the stomach is weak or diseased,
whether he knows it or not. If he knows
he has stomach 0trouble," 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.
DR.. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery
has restored lost health and strength to
thousands of suffering men and women,
because it cures diseases of the stomach
and other organs of digestion and nutri-

TIE U. S. 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
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 man
has been rejected by the medical ex-
aminer who appeared externally to
possess all the physical requirements OF
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.
Most people look upon indigestion as
a discomfort rather than disease, But

liver, lungs, kidneys, etc.
DR.. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery
cures diseases of organs remote from the
stomach when these diseases have their
origin in disease of the stomach and its
allied organs of digestion and nutrition.
In numerous cases men and women who
have taken vGolden Medical Discovery"
to cure disease of the stomach have been
astonished to find themselves cured of
diseases of heart, lungs, liver, kidneys
or other organs.

for three years with cold chills, palpita-
ton of heart, shortness of breath and
low spirits" writes Mrs. A. c. Jones, of
WATERFORD, Colleton Co., S. c. III could
not sleep, and really thought 1 would
soon die. Had peculiar roaring through
my head all the time. Was so emaciated

aunt induced me to try Doctor Pierce's
Golden Medical Discovery, which did,
only to please her, and six bottles cured
me. To-day am sound and we'll. Dur

stance for a shadow. Any substitute

But if a Uweak " stomach
makes a weak man that
weakness must be disHi-
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
Uweak and there is loss
of nutrition, every organ
shares that loss heart,

seven Stars In the Sky.
From the Chicago Chronicle.


In ancient Egypt the body Of Osiris was
always sealed up in an ark during the
month of November, because the people be-
lieved that the seven stars were seven
brothers, sailing their ships across the sky
and carrying with them the souls of the
dead. The people Of ancient Gaul also had
a superstition, believing that the angels and
the souls Of great men held a celestial fes-
tival on that particular night in November
when both the full moon and the seven
stars were on the meridian at-the same
time. The Hottentots of South Africa and
the Abipones of South America each claim
that the seven stars are their deceased
fathers and grandfathers. Cakes says:
Certain tribes in both Africa and South
America hold that the seven stars is (are)
their father fathers), and welcome ,fheir
return with festivities and much rejoicing
The ancient Mexicans also sacrificed hui
man being and kindled sacred fire (nade
of seven firebrandsl on his back when the
stars and the moon were on a certain me-
ridian together. The Pernvians also had
seven stars ceremonies, but without ssacri-
fee, at about the same time the Mexfcans
were carrying on their paganisttc rites The
ancient Druids believed the seven stars to
be boats which carried the souls to the
judgment seat Of the god Of the dead"
