Stomach Heart
 Kidneys
Slaves of the
 Inside Nerves

Our lives. from moment to moment. depend on a set of tiny, delicate nerves which are so small that fifteen hundred of them could lie side by side in an inch. Ten times more tender and sensitive than the pupil of the .eyei
 Yet, night and day. unguided and un- seen, these little nerves must keep the stomach, the heart, the kidneys, in healthy action. For these organs have no power-no self-control The power is in the nerves. The nerves are the mas ters. The organs are their slaves.
 Understand first that we have two en- tirely separate nerve systems. When we walk, or talk, or act we call into play a certain set of nerves-nerves which obey our mental commands. That is why the arm can be raised or the mouth opened, or the eye shut, at the slightest desire. That is why your fingers can delicately pick up a pin one moment and hold a heavy hammer the next.
 But these are not the nerves we are to consider here. a
 It is the inside nerves that manage and govern and actuate the heart and the stomach. the kidneys and the liver and all of the vital functions You cannot con lfOl these nerves. by no supreme eHoTt of mind can you make your heart stop or start-nor can you even make 1t vary by a single beat a minute And so with the stomach and the liver and the kidneys and the bowels-they are automatic-they do their work at certain set speed whether you are awake or asleep-wheth- CT you want them to or not.
 It Is on these inside nerves that life and health depend. So long as these nerves perform their proper duties VIC are well and strong. When they fail, we know 1t by the inevitable symptoms stomach, heart liver, kidney troubles.
 Thus, we find that most forms of ill., ness are. after all. only symptoms of the real trouble-nside nerve trouble.
 For instance. indigestion. sour stomach, heartburn. dyspepsia and all stomach troubles-diabetes, Bright's disease and other kidney dlsorders-heart troubles, liver troubles, bowel troubles. nervous ness, fretfulness, sleepessness irritahil- ity-all of these ailments are due to this single cause. Painful, dsagreeable tc be treated as such They are merely out ward signs of inward trouble.
 There are different centers and branches of this inside nerve system (frequently called the Sympathetic Nervous System But each branch is so closely connected with the others that breakdown any where usually means breakdown every l where.

WILD DEER.
Raised Motherless Calf and Animal
 Jumps Like a Doe.

Shrewsbury CVt) Cor New York World.
 A calf lost last spring by John Wyman has been found back on Shrewsbury Peak living with a herd of deer. and refuses to return to civilization and to orthodox bovine habits. The animal, a Holstein,
 was missed one morning in May when 1t was about a month old, and three weeks later was reported by a fisherman
 who said he had seen it with a herd of deer near the western base of the monn- tain. Thee alf's motaher had been sold
 three days before it disappeared, and MT.
 Wyman was of the opinion that the little creature. which was fulied by the cows
 in the barnyard. sought companionship among some does that came down to the
 meadows to feed.
 Several days ago the farmer went up
 the mountain to mark out wood lot
 near the forested cone. He had finished
 his work and was eating his lunch when his attention was attracted by move ment in the undergrowth He remained
 quiet and in a few moments big buck passed within thirty yards of him. cross
 cd a clearing and ambled leisurely down
 the mountain. A short time later a doe
 followed and then another doe. Eventu
 ally six female deer passed. and then a
 well developed young Holstein COW. its COdt Sleek anu US nOTIS lOiS anu
 came into view It saw the man and stood
 stock still The report of the fisherman flashed over Wymans mind, and he start ed cautiously toward the cow He had branded his calf on the left side. and he finally got around where he could see
 her flank. There. sure enough was his herders mark.
 The animal seemed quite tame and the farmer got up almost close enough to put his hands on her before she bounded off into the woods. MT Wyman was anx- ious to regain his COW and next day took
 his hired man and a rope and returned up
 the mountain. He picked up the trail where he had seen the animal and few hours later came up with the herd close
 to the peak. The buck stamped and ran. but the hcifer and three of the does re-
 mained.
 A box of grain was placed in the snow an,, moose was stretched across the top. T,en the men. with one end of the rope in their hands. retired to distance and waited. First the does approached and nihbled the grain. Then the COW came forward and did likewise. When she got her head well down in the box the moose was pulled taut and the end of the rope wound around tree Instantly the hefer began to kick and holt. but she couldn't free herself, and after the does
 sect off the men set about setting her to the farm.
 This was serious undertaking, as the COW was strong and wild, but by coaxipg,
 prodding and pulling, they finally got her

This explains why stomach trouble de- yelops into heart trouble-why indiges- tion brings on nervousness-why diseases become complicated. It explains, too, why ordnar medical treatments are wrong-why medicine so frequentlyfais.
 For despite the discoveries of science, the common remedies of the day are de- signed to treat the organ, not the nerve the symptom instead of the cause.
 Don't you, though you may not know medicine at all, see that this is wrong? That it is mere patchwork? That while the suffering organ is enjoying it's tenn porary relief, the nerve that is really sick may be getting worse and worse?

 atter when we can come to an agree ment with foreign bowers. as to what shail be submitted to enter into arbitra- eioh treaties, for We have already when we ratlhed The Hagua treaty, with the various signatory powers, solemnly de- clared such to be our intention; and nothing Is gaied by reiterating our adher- ehce to the principles while refusing to pioVlde any means of making our inten- tion effective.

 Tn thss amended form the treaties contain nothing except such expression or barren intention and ideed as com pared with what has already been pro- Vided for it by The Hague arbitration treaty, they probably represent not a step forward, but slight step backward as regards the question of international arbitration.

 Senator Culom read the letter aloud during an executive session of the Sem ate today. It was received with a great deal of surprise and several senators asserted that the letter confirmed what they had claimed namely that the words treaty" and agreement were the es- sential points. They insisted that if the word agreement" instead Of treaty was used it would give the President full power to negotiate agreements without submitting them to the Senate.

pulsory arbitration, which was rejected by The Hague convention.
 On the subject of the Presidents in- ssstenee tha. the treaty shall not be amended so as to provide for the sub mission to the Senate of all matters to be arbitrated, Senator Morgan says:
 Tn other words the considerations which would most vltaly affect the character of our treaty relations with a foreign power, are 10 be judged and determined for us by the President with out the concurrence of the Senate"
 Continuing. Senator Morgan says that the treaty would be so understood by the other parties to the conventions and it is at least probable that they would be so interpreted by the President of the United States"
 Increases Executive Authority.
 The report argues that the provision of the treaties to submit questions O arr bitration by special agreement means that it will be a treaty made without the concurrence of the Senate. In other words this Is an attempt by treaty to delegate the treaty-making power to the executive department of the government alone. and by so doing. to alter the constitution of the United States
 Commenting on the fact that the pend- ing treaties are exact copies of an arbl- tration treaty negotiated between France and Great Britain. Senator Morgan charges that the Anglo French treaty Is an alliance between the two govern ments forming that convention, to reform The Hague treaty. So far as the action of this government Is concerned Senator Morgan says
 'The advice and consent of the Senate Is disposed of when the President chooses to conclude such agreements under the provisions of these conventions. and the plain constitutional rights of the people are ignored and destroyed. Such Is the effect that must result from the conven- tions now before the Senate. and, so far as can be seen, that is one of the real in- tents and purposes intended to be accom- plished by their ratiflcaticn.'
 The report reviews precedents that have been established as showing the com parative rights of the executive and the Senate in the matter of treaty-making
