ANTI-DYSPEPSIA DIET.
swedeH and NOrwegians Know Moth
Ing About the Indigestibie
Foods of Americans.

Dyspepsia would no longer be the
national disease in America if the peo-
pie Of this country would adopt plain
diet similar to that Of Norway and
Sweden. Gout is unknown among
Swedes and Norwegians, and the rosy
cheeks and clear compilations of the
young people of those countries are
the result of the simple food the chill
dren eat" the United States consul at
Bergen, Norway, says. "Hot rolls and
white bread are rarely seen in Sweden.
Knackbrode or hard bread is the stand
ard article of food. 1t is made of
ground oats and rye. There is no yeast
in the bread and it is rolled into thin
waters, which are baked and hung up
where they will keep perfectly dry.
Swedes eat this bread and drink milk
for two meals a day and have one meal
at which they eat meat and potatoes.
Sweets are almost unknown. Children
are allowed to eat candy only on state
occasions"

FARMvILLE, va, FRIDAY, FEBRUARY s, 1903

Many romantic stories are connected
with the mission at Altai, which are
sometimes enormously supposed 10
| pertain to that at Santa Barbara, Cal.
Purissima mission, at Lompac, which is
dated December s, 1887, three years
after his death, is said to be one Of the
II founded by father Junipero Sevra.
In 1911 it was nearly destroyed by an
earthquake. The Indians were super
stitious and it was found necessary to
rebuild it across the river. whose
abundant water supply had at first at
tracted over 1900 settlers TO the place.
The old building incloSed a space Of
400 feet square. The new one was much
smaller, and its settlement never num-
bered over / 800 people. Its 200 feet of
wide veranda still bears evidence of
carving and other ornamentation. Its
furniture was long since removed, and
reports of buried treasure have caused
excavations 20 feet deep TO be made
within the walls, to no purpose. The
recent earthquake has loosened the old
rafters and shaken the adobe walls,
thus Fastening the desolating work Of
time.
At Juarez (Paso del Norte), over the
Mexican line from FL Paso, Tex, is an
interesting old mission, in an interest
ing state Of preservation, being still the |
resort Of many worshipers. The altar,
confessional, pictures and statuary be-
long to a time and nation not our own,
but are interesting in the extreme.
Small, shiny, little Mexican boys may
always be seen outside the doorway
with bits Of dried leaves, said TO be
blessed and to insure great advantages
to the purchaser.
All through New Mexico and Arizona
the remains of old missions appear.
That of San Xavier del Bae ('Bae" be-
ing an Indian word for house) situated
about nine miles southwest Of Tucson,
presents many attractive features.
The architectural lines are very beau
H. and in its partial restoration great
care has been taken to preserve them.
One distinguishing Characteristic of
this building is that the walls are of
brick, rather than of adobe, but largely
resembling the latter in size. These
bricks are said to have been brought
from Spain and transported with great
abor to this point. The edifce has re-
emily been plastered, except the tower

These colds mean that your sys-

precede serious diseases like con-

dangerous.
We have found a remedy for all
sorts Of colds, coughs, that is not

Carelessness and Haste on fbe Part

This loss is not so much due TO theft
as to carelessness and hurry on the

that large hotel collects napkins.

names of almost all the other large
hotels in the country and Of names in
Europe. The spoon packed away with
the child's medicine by maid in Paris

Thus these little but costly things
travel about and defy safekeepng.
There is a great deal Of theft, Of
course. Servant women wrap table
cloths and sheets around their per-
sons, walters pocket forks, spoons,
knives and napkins, and bartenders
and their helpers carry Off bottles Of !

cause that makes it more difficult for |
theft to be practiced.

A Night Alarm.

Worse than an alarm of fire at night
is the brassy cough or Group, which
sounds like the children's death knell
and il means death unless something is
done quickly. Foley's Honey and Tar
never fails to give instant relief and
quickly cures the worst forms Of Group.
