FIFTH PAPER.

not entirely completed in the stom-
ach. The gastric juice does not
change starch into sugar, but the
process which began in the mouth
goes on in the stomach until the
contents become too acid.
Another item in stomach diges-
lion is temperature, which should
be about 3S degrees @. La the
case of eating ice cream, or other
foods Of an extremely low temper
allure, they must first be brought to
the same degree of heat as the
normal condition of the stomach
before digestion can take place.
The food, after it has been thor
oughly mixed with the gastric
juice, is called "chymo."
From the time food enters the
stomach until it has all passed out
the muscular coat of the stomach
is in action. The walls are in
contact except when there is food
between them, and this rotary
grinding and churning is constant
ly going on until the food is ex-
PEELED. From this will be seen
the necessity of rest for the stom-
ach, tho muscles of which tire the
same as any other muscles. AS
the food becomes liquid enough it
passes through what is called the
"pyloric orfice" into the duode-
mum; if it is not liquid enough it
is forced back and must undergo
the churning process once more.
The duration of stomach diges-
ton is from one and one-half to
five and one-half hours. Thus
salmon requires one hour, milk
two hours, while roast pork re-
quires five and one-half hours.
It will be we'll to speak here of
the effect Of alcohol upon diges-
ton. Authorities differ so widely
that it is impossible to determine
accurately. The fact probably is
that there is some truth in all of

The Honest and DiShOn
est Critic.

l can think of nothing more un-
pleasant than a not thoroughly
capable man in the thankless posi-
ton of critic of a literary society.
It is a place that calls for not only
the best scholar that the society
affords, but one who has the fac
ulty of grasping at once the main
features of a paper. The author
may have consumed hours and
possibly weeks of thought and
study upon paper, and concen-
trated the results of his labor into
five or ten minutes of reading
matter, and the critic is supposed
to get up, after hearing the paper
read, dissect it, and point out the
errors, if there be any, in either
thought, phraseology or delivery.
Now here I want to say word
in behalf of those critics who,
while honest enough, simply say,
"The paper was very good" In
nine cases out of ten the average
critic has nothing else to say. The
whole paper may jar on him and
he may not like it. But if be
criticises it as a whole he may be
called upon to point out in what
particular thought or paragraph
the paper is in error, and If he
feels that he can not do this, he
simply says, ut was very good"
and lets it go at that. But when
society has found man who
not only has the faculty of at once
getting at the pith of a paper, but
has the ability to express his
thoughts readily in direct and
fluent manner, such a mali is of
the utmost benefit and should be
held permanently in the position.
But there is an altogether diff
ferent critic whom we meet every
day, who is made up chiefly of
bonn ast and egotism, who criti-
cises others for the benefit of the
comparison to himself. Such a
man says of another, eyes, he's a
good fellow enough, but it's too
bad he's thus and So" The man
who criticises thus simply boasts

them, and that the effect of alcohol
varies according to the conditions
present. The first principle which
may be laid down is that alcohol
is not needed to aid digestion;
therefore what is the object Of
using that which is superfuous?
When the food has passed into
the duodenum, part of the small
intestine, still further digestion
ensues. The small intestine is
about p feet long, and opens into
the large intestine. The small in
testine, like the stomach, has four
coats, of which we will consider
two. the mucous and muscular.
The mucous coat Of the intes-
tine is arranged in folds; these
resemble the pleating of an ac-
Gordon with the exception that
single fold does not completely
encircle it, but varies in length,
some extending two-thirds and
others but one-third Of the dis
lance around. They are greater
in amount in the upper half than
in the lower half six hundred have
been counted in the upper where
only two hundred and fifty have
been found in the lower half.
This mucous membrane secretes
the intestinal juice and it is here
Joined forth and mixed with the
food. Its action has never been
fully determined, but it does
change both raw and cooked
starch into sugar, thus making it
soluble and in a condition to be
absorbed.
The food is also mixed with the
pancreatlc juice and bile, the for
mer secreted by the pancreas and
the latter by the liver. Each loses
it's own particular part in produc-
ing the chemical changes neces-
sary to bring the food to a liquid
state and in condition to be alb
sorbed by the blood.
The large intestine has no d.
gestive power, but has the power
of absorption and it absorbs the
liquids which are left from the
small intestine and carries the
waste product away. CLINIC.

HABITS OF A BOWERY BEGGAR.


The ingenious devices resorted
to by the panhandler to arouse
sympathy would be worthy of the
highest respect and admiration
were they applied to Legitimate
vocation, and even as they are
they provoke a sense of admira-
ton for the ingenuity displayed,
if not for the business in which it
is employed. The Bowery pan
handler is the greatest actor on
earth, and a facial expression or
attitude that cannot be assumed
by this class is really not worth
trying for.
There goes a man who has lost
a leg and an arm, whose face is
SCARED in a flightful manner,
one eye covered by green patch.
If questioned he will retail the
story of a terrible explosion in
which he became as you see him.
But in reality it is merely case
Of optical illusion. You see him
thus and SO, and yet you don't;
for this person is as sound of
wind and limb as corn fed hog.
But by the binding Of a limb or
two, the application Of paint and
mucilage on his face, you behold
a mere human wreck which only
an expert could detect as fraud.
Talk about an actors makeup,
whose audience sees him in COM
paratively dark house and at some
distance, being good! What
could be the term used for this
beggar's makeup, who displays his
hideousness in broad daylight?
The beggar does not make him
self up, but goes to one of the
several artists in that line whose
profession it is to paint realistic
sores and scars. It is absolutely
impossible to imagine how expert

"Laugh and Grow Fat"

Life is such a serious business
to the average mortal that an op-
portunity for hearty laugh is
more than welcome to most people.

politan daily, the Chicago Rec

s. ounces. Strictly speaking, there
are four coats to the stomach, but
for simplicity we will consider but
three. The muscular coat is COM
posed of three layers of muscular
fibres, which. fs-cn straight lines,
zoblique lines, al.I circular lines.
BY studying this construction it
will be easily seen how the stom-
ach obtains it's churning motion.
The submucous coat contains
the nerves and blood vessels and
these supply the nourishment to
the stomach. The mucous coat,
or mucous membrane, is the lin
ing of the stomach; it is soft and
velvety, and its employment is to
secrete the mucous found in the
stomach. This mucous is con-
stituent of the gastric juice.
'.Prior to the year 1922 little was
known about stomach digestion.
During that year a Canadian was
SO injured by the accidental dis
charge of gun that when the
wound healed there remained a
permanent opening which COM
municated with the cavity of the
stomach" says an authority on the
subject. Through the instrument
tally of this case, and by years of
patient research, DIR. Beaumont
and others have brought the
knowledge of stomach digestion to
its present high standing.
upon entering the stomach the
food is mixed with a fluid called
the gastric juice. This fluid acts
partially upon the fats in the food,
splitting them up into glycelin
and fatty acids, process which is

number will be of unusual inter-
est to all college men.

these men are without personal
observation. We have seen the
most revolving sores imaginable
produced by nothing more than
the judicious blending of red
yellow purple and green.
Not all beggars resort to painted
wounds; some infict the real
thing. By mixing creosote, lye OF
wood ashes with different materi-
ais and applying to the arm, a re-
pulsive sore is formed. This is
known to the profession as zig
GER" and if continued for any
length of time it results in NORTH
cation and gangrene, which means
the amputation Of the limb, and
in some cases death. But so great
is the loathing of work in the
breast of the Bowery beggar that
even this great risk is taken in
order to avoid it. At best, even if
the treatment is stopped in time,
it leaves hideous scar for life.
This method is generally re-
sorted to by the younger members
of the panhandle profession. OF
the man with the goggles and
patches, it is.needless to say any
thing. as he is common sight in
all cities. Then there is the we'll
dressed, clean looking man who
does the deaf and dumb act.
Members Of this class are general
ly we'll educated and in some cases
refined in habits and manners.
They work the offices of merchants
and the uptown districts. By
long practice, these beggars &C
quire the peculiar expression of
the deaf and dumb, and carry a
pad and pencil or talk with the
fingers. They are easily the most
prosperous among the beggar
fraternity, and in many cases sup
port wife and children in COM
fort, if not in luxury, on the pro-
ceeds.
So numerous are the Bowery
panhandlers that regular clubs are
formed of them. The clubhouse

of his own honesty. Perhaps the
very same man of whom he is
speaking is saying to some one
else of him, ooh yes, he's not
bad fellow, but I never could see
why he does this or that thing"

criticising the other to magnify
their own good qualities. D.

once a Bowery beggar, always a
Bowery, beggar. No greater ca
lamity can befall a Bowery pan
handler than to be compelled to
keep off that !horoughfare, and no
place else has the panhandler more
free play in plying his trade
Mickey in Buttons deigns not to
notice the panhandler's importu-
mites unless be proceeds to vio-
lence, which might in other places
be termed highway robbery. 1t
would surely be a miracle for a
visitor to navigate one block with
out aims being solicitated at least
five times.
Tho the panhandler plies his
vocation at all hours, he is most
frequently met with from dusk
till midnight, and he then extends
his business to include the for
hidden ground of the theatrical
houses on Fourteenth street, up
Broadway and Fifth avenue to
Twenty third and Forty-second
streets. But only the more am
bilious venture here, as the plain
clothes officer or Society Mug"
is ever casting a watchful eye for
the panhandler, and to fall into
the Society Mugs ready clutch
means a sojourn on Blackwells
anywhere from five days to six
months. But like all forbidden
fruit, the harvest to be CLEANED
is so rich that the temptation
sometimes overcomes the fears Of
confinement.
