MUST WAIT A YEAR
Compromise Canon on
Divorce Agreed to by
Deputies.
(Bv the Associated PressD

Boston, Mass, Oct. 20.-By an
overwhelming majority a compromise
canon on the re-marriage of divorced
persons was adopted by the House OF
Deputies of the Episcopal General
Conference to-day, and if it is con-
Cured in by the House of Bishops,
the most important issue that has
come before present convention will be
disposed of for at least three years.
The compromise measure, like the ola
law, permits the re-marriage of the
innocent person in a divorce for the
cause of infidelitY. but further pro-
VdeS that no re-marriage shall be al
lowed within one wear of the innocence
of the applicant for re-marriage musl
De furnished in the shape of court rec
ords, and after the consent of the biSh-
OPP is obtained, a clergyman may re-
fuse to perform such a ceremony
without subjecting himself to cenSure
or discipline.
In the opinion of Francis a. Lewis,
of Philadelphia Il member of the
committee on canons who favored 10
re-marriage of any diVorC ed persons.
but who accepted the compromise,
the canon adopted to-day is so strict
that if endorsed by the bishops ii viii
practically put the church as he eA-
pressed it, "out of the divorce bust
ness"
Others, however claimed that they
saw loop holes" in it. The vote on
the passage stood:

A Pleasant, Simple. but Safe and Ef-
fcctuaI Cure for 1t.

Catarrh of the stomach has long
been considered the next thing to in
durable. The usual symptoms are a
full of blOating sensation after eating,
accompanied sometimes with sour or
Tatery risings, a formation of gases,
causing pressure on the heart and
lungs and difficult breathing, head
aches, tickle appetite, nervousness and
general played out, languid feeling.
There is often a foul taste i'll the
mouth, coated tongue and il the in
terror of the stomach could be seen it
would show a Shiny, inflamed condi-
ION.
The cure for this common and OBJ
stinate trouble is found in Il treatment
which causes the food to be readily,

to ferment ard irritate the delicate
mucous surfaces of the stomach. To
secure prompt and healthy digestion
is the one necessary thing to do and
when normal digestion is secured the

peared.
According to Dr. Earlanson, the SAT-
est ard best treatment is TO use after
each meal q tablet, composed of Di-
astase, Aseptic Pepsin, a little NuX.
