Causes That Lead to Dyspepsia
Properly Called Catarrh
of Stomach

The reason for this is that dyspepsia
in a great majority of cases depends
upon catarrh of the stomach.
Catarrh of the stomach may have
been set up by an extension of the
catarrh from the throat or head
Catarrh of the stomach is frequent
ly produced by late suppers, indigesti-
BILE diet, rapid eating, drinking ice
water, use of alcoholic stimulants and
many other indiscretions. Peruna
cures all such cases of dyspepsia, sim
ply because it cures catarrh wherever
located.

American Federation of Catholic
Societies in Session in Detroit.
Detroit, Mich. Aug. 2.-Three hun
bred delegates were present to-day in
Light Guard Armory at the opening
session of the fourth convention Of the
American Federation of Catholic So
cieties.
The opening was preceded by a pom
tihcal mass at st. Mary's Church,
where Rev. Patrick OBrien of To-
ledo preached the sermon. He dis
cussed the conflict between the author
ity Of the church and that Of the state,
saying 1.-THE church cannot sanction
unjust or bad news.
at cannot sanction the law OF di-
vorce. because it is against the law
of God. The state has no right to en-
act the law of divorce. say it as a
citizen loyal to the government. The
church cannot sanction the present
public school system of the countryy
because 1t eliminates religion from the
teachings. / know that is an unpopu-
lar stand but we must make it, be-
cause we are right and the state is
wrong.
Though the number of Catholics in
this country is 100000. we have less
influence than some of the weaker
secte Why have we Catholics so lit
tie influence despite the fact that we
number 100000 voters? 1t is because
of our cowardice in expressing our
opinions. You must lay down a fight
ing programme for the future and car
ry It out"
At the afternoon session. Secretary
Anthony Matre of Cincinnati read the
following cablegram from Pope Plus
Y:
Plus has received the fiIial greet
ing Of the American Federation OF
Catholic Societies, and joyfully sends
his apostolic blessing"
Condo b. Pallen Of New York city
made an address on Christian Educa-
ton" What Catholics wanted. he said
was to have the government contribute
to the support of any religious schools,
whose standard in the secular branches
was found to reach that demanded by
the government.

but II Seems Certain.

Esopus, N. Y, Aug 2.-The rumor
that George Foster eabody. Of Brook
Ign, would be treasurer of the Ma
tional Committee was the only i'm
portant political topic attracting much
attention here to-day.
Judge Parker refused to comment in
any way upon the report. but it is be
lieved to be we'll founded and unless
some important change in the stua-
ton is made necessary by late develop
ments, the selection of Mr.. Peabody as
treasurer will be announced within
twenty-four hours.
It is known that during the three
hours conference between Judge
Parker and Mr. Peabody last Satui-
day practically every important aspect
of the Democratic situation was dis
Cussed.
II is still believed here that William
F. Sheehdn will be chairman of the
Executive Committee and that the FL

he is combining attention to his legal
business with a close cooperation in

No visitors of political importance

Byrd Printing Company, Foot & Davies
and the LaHatte Printing Company
of Atlanta. When the bids were read,
II was seen that Marshall Bruce and
the LaHatte Printing Company bids
were the lowest, and the others were
therefore out of the running, The point
was raised that the law prevented the
contract from being awarded to a nom
resident corporation, but the board did
not sustain the contention. 1t took the
services of an expert to decide between
the two close bids
The Nashville company was about
$500 lower than LaHatte but express.
and other charges taken into considera-
ton, it was held the LaHatte bid wouli
be the cheaper and the contract was
so awarded. The State Printing Com
mission is composed of Secretary Phil
Cook, Controller General w. A Wright,
and State Treasurer R. Z. Park.

Atlanta, Aug. 2.-When the doctors
turn against d board of health. it is
not surprising that it should receive
small sympathy from other sources.
Thus it was that the proposed appro-
priation of tho State Board of Health
of $4,000 struck a snag in the House
to-day, which caught and held it.
The chief opponents of the bill loom
ed up in the shape of DR.. Kelly of
Glascock, DR.. Hardman of jackson and
Or. Whitley of Douglas.
DR.. Kelly and DR.. Hartman intro.
duced an amendment cutting the an
preparation to $4,000 to be used for the
employment of a bacteriologist and
clerk.
Mr.. Slaton of Fulton made a stirring
speech in favor of the measure. an
pealing for some action in behalf of
the health of the state. DR.. Whitley
of Douglas said he was opposed to the
appropriation, because he did not think
it necessary. He wanted to know
why it was that the Committee on Hy-
gene and Sanitation had been asked
to engineer the Board of Health
through, and yet when money was
wanted, the lawyers of the House were
called on, and the doctors were ignored.

to soften it's rigors to a considerable
degree.

through.
