Most Reverend Archbishop: The

a stranger. Every student recalls with
delight your visits to Notre Dame in
other years. They were looked for

How to Avoid Dyspepsia.

Probably eight out of ten people suf-
fer from dyspepsia more or less fire.
quently.
Well, nearly every one eats too fast.
Breakfast is bolted in order to catch
the train. Luncheon is gobbled up for
no other reason than that every one
else is doing the same. Dinner is
generally taken in too great hurry.
Now, no one who values health should
ever hurry over meals.
Take breakfast quietly, and never
mind the newspapers. Rest for few
minutes before rising from the table,
and walk leisurely to the station.
Don't hurry over luncheon, and let
it be something digestible and nour-
ishing. Take dinner very slowly. And
never drink tea or coffee very hot, or
water very cold.
If you follow these rules the
chances are ten to one that you will
, never suffer from dyspepsia.
If, through neglect OF these rational
precautions, you have got your stom-
ach into bad condition, the easiest
and most effectual way to restore it
is to wash it out before each meal.
You do not want stomach pump for
| this operation.
! All that is necessary is to dissolve
about dessert spoonful Of ordinary
salt in pint, or somewhat less, of
warm water, and drink it forty-five
minutes or an hour before meals. This
not only washes the stomach, but
tones it up. And one weeks trial of
the remedy will usually cure the
worst dyspepsia. OF course, when
the aimcnt is due to gastric ulcers OF
some such serious disease, home rem

tics, we find no less lamentable a
story. The following figures may be
safely allowed to speak for them
selves:-
"In 1901 the total amount Of land
under crops was 4,631,O51 acres, as
against 4,S1S3S1 acres in 1891. Dur
ing the decades grass land increased
! from 1O,29S,654 acres to 1857, ,233S
acres. Woods and plantations de-
creased from 311,554 acres to 3O9,741
acres; and turf bog, marsh, mountain,
ETC., decreased from 4,769,G77 acres to
4,710, 162 acres. The land under cereal
crops decreased from 1892 ,7G3 acres
to 1,317,576 acres; green crops from
1,191, ,426 acres to 1,O79,445 acres; and
flax from 1865 acres to 5,442 acres.
Only meadow and clover lands in
creased from 2,O59,529 acres to 2,17S
592 acres"
In ten years 1880 acres of land
have gone out of cultivation. Divid-
ed into farms of thirty acres, able to
support comfortably family each, we
find that great tracts of rich land
none else would feed King Bos-which
would under proper system of gov
ernment maintain 6,244 families-aln
giving each family an average Of fou1
persons, that would mean 24,976 peo-
ple-all this immense tract of land has
been allowed to fall into a condition
in which it is of no earthly use in de-
veloping the prosperity of the country.
Then the grass lands pure and sim
pie have increased at an alarming
rate. In ten years the huge total of
27S,59O acres have been added to the
dominions ranged over by the bullocks
and sheep. The total number Of acres
devoted to grazing at the present mo-
ment is considerably over ten millions
and a half, or more than half the ar
able land Of the country.
