RIGHT HAND OF MAN.
Some Things About 1t That Doctors
Cannot Yet Explain.

London Lancet
Whether Eve was framed out Of the
left side Of Adam. I dispute not: because
stand not yet assured which is the
right side Of a man. or whether there is
any such distinction in nature" Thus
Sir Thomas Browne and not a few per
sons are today in like case. II anyone
asks, How am I O. know which Is nv
right arm ?" IL is by no means easy to
give him an answer. At the Huxley
memorial lecture of the Anthropological
Institute which was delivered On Oc-

ing 10 the chair. Prof ID. J. Cunningham
the lecturer for this year. chose for his
subject Right Handedness and Left
Brainedness.' He pointed out how Il Is
evident that as far back as we can trace
mn ne was prefeTentially right handed.
thus DIT. r. Lehman Nltsche had ex-
amined the bones OF prehistoric men
from southern Bavaria and had found
that the ClaviCle and the long bones OF
the riEht upper limb were distinctly
heavier and more massive than the cor
responding bones OF the opposite side.
All the evidence at our disposal goes
to show that TiEht-handedness Is due "a

lion which had been picked up during
the lifetime OF the individual. it rested
upon some structural foundation which

Is a distinction I'm nature Of the right

most delicate manual actions are per
formed with one marked exception
namely, the lingering In the playing OF
stringet Instruments which are played
with a bow.
II, as Prof. Cunningham In referring
TO the crossing Of the motor impulses
says. 1t thus came about that the left
cerebral hemisphere controlled and reg
ulated the muscles Of the right side.
and its functionel superiority over the
right hemisphere was Indicated by the
subscrvient position which the left hand
held with reference 10 the right and the
manner in which all manual acts which
required precision and skill. all the
movements which specially required the
higher guidance oc the brain. were per-
formed by the right hand"-if this be so
how comes IL that the lingering OF q

the higher guidance OF the brain, Is al

SOUR STOMACH Acid Dyspepsia.
Now Recognized as the Cause of Sc
nous Diseases.

Acid Dyspepsia. commonly called
heartburn or sour stomach. is a form
OF Indigestion resulting from fermenta-
tiOn OF the food. The stomach beine
TOO weak to promptly digest IL. the food
remains until fermentation begins. fill
ing the stomach with gas. ari a bitter
sour, burning taste in the mouth IS or

comes chronic. and being aa every Iay
occurrence, is given but little atten-
tion. Because Dyspepsia is not imme-
diately fatal. many people 20 nothing
for the trouble
II is now well known among able
physicians that the whole constitution
is gradually undermined and weakened
that the nerves and Vita organs are
seriously affected by any form OF dys-
pepsia. This is plain. as every organ
every nerve in the body is nourished bv
the blood, and the blood IS replenished
from the food digested IL the food is
properly digested the blood is pure. the
nerves steady. but II supplied from a
sour, fermenting, deCaying mass the
blood Is vltiated. poisoned. and the re-
suit IS shown in sleeplessness. lack OF
energy, poor appetite. nervousness
Every trifie is magnifed and the dvg-
pepuc sees nothing but the dark side
of everything
Within a recent period a remedy has
been discovered prepared solely TO cure
dyspepsia and stomach troubles. II is
known as Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets
and It Is now becoming rapidly used
and prescribed as a radical cure for
every form OF dyspepsia.
II is not claimed to cure anything ex-
ccpt dyspepsia and stomach weakness
in its various forms. but for this IL ha,
been shown TO be unequaled. The emf.
nent specialists. Reed and O'Leary. have
recently stated that they considered
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets an unfaillne
specific for disorders or the digestive
organs, and the remarkable cures made

The Last Citadel.
IF our institutions should be assaiIed
and overthrown-no matter by whom or
in what way-whether by arbitrary
power. by corruption. OF by lawlessnesa.
the last citadel 10 be taken by the as
sailants will be our Incompatible ju-

That the court holds the unique 20
sition It does, that It is invested with
the extraordinary authority it Yields.
and that we have a judicial system which
Washington declared was the chief pIl-
lar OF the National Government. Is due
primarily TO the far-seeing statesmen OF
the Revolutionary period. Prior to that
time a few individual writer's like Mont
esquieu had expressed the thought that
the separation Of the judicial department
from other departments Of government
was essential to liberty.
But it remained for the American
people. in advance Of all other peoDIes

Independence of Judiciary.
'The experience Of more than a cen

independence Of the judiciary. and its

ments Of the Govern ment. or by popuIar
whim and passion, % declare the mean

Well-being Of the republic.
1t may be said-indeed. it has bcep
said by way OF Criticism-that the action
OF the Supreme Court has not always

members have often differed upon grave
questions Of constitutional law. such
