More Harmful
Than Alcohol
Overeating Worst Form
of Intemperance.

fyour food is undigested, you are un.
derfed, no matter how much you eat.
And the underfed man is, to the extent
OF the undertaking, crippled for the
battle of life. On the other hand,
there is such thing as overeating
The harm done by Indigestion caused
by overloaded stomachs exceeds that
from the increased heart beats caused
by the use of alcohol or whiskey.
Eat as much good food as you need
but don't overload the stomach. II
your stomach is weak it may refuse to
digest what you eat. Then you ought
to use a good digestant like Kodol Dys.
pepsia Cure, which digests what you
eat without the stomach's aid. This
rest and the wholesome tonics con.
tanned in -Kodol Dyspepsia Cure soon
restore health. You don't have to diet
Don't eat too much. That's harmful.
But eat enough and of sufficient varie.
ty. Kodol Dyspepsia Cure will digest
it. 1t quickly relieves the sensation
of fulness and bloating from which
some people suffer after meals. It
prevents belching and absolutely cures
indigestion and other stomach troub.
les. Equally good for children.

The Mystery of Life.

The Rev. T. R. Slocer, Unitarian
New York City,
1t is strange that when the deep
est experiences come and the most
intimate griefs knock on our door
and lift the latch and come in un.
announced, that their faces should
be yelled, and We do not know them
nor know their errend, nor trust it
when we see it, nor know what to
do with them now they have come?
They are part of the mystery of
life. So it behooves us to keep
the main-traveled roads.

West Union Record.
Farmers report that many of
their lambs are dying. Is it any
wonder when Republican lamb
buyers are offering Al cents for
lambsP The only wonder is that
they don't all die. The high pro-
lection on wool has caused the
price of that commodity to become
so low that it has made the lambs
all sick.

one place in it's Wednesday issue
to the proposition which Gen.
Miles submitted to the President
looking to a cessation of the

that the proposition was rejected
for the reason, as expressed, that
the war was over. A very satisfy
ing and sufficient reason, if true.
But in the adjoining coulmn of
hat same paper there is printed
a dispatch from Washington,
quoting Gen. Otis, saying that at
least $1,000 active soldiers will be
required there for many years yet
to secure peace, and that fresh
troops are badly needed at this
moment to maintain our authority
there. Thus we see our distingu-
ished contemporary contradicting
itself with SO much positiveness
that the question of veractity
takes on the aspect of an executive
misunderstanding Sentinel.
