THEORIES ABOUT FOOD.
Also Few Facts on the Same Sub
jeCt.

We hear much nowadays about
health FOODS ana hygienic living, ABOUT
vegetarlanism. and many other tads
along the same line.
Restaurants may be found in the
larger cities where no meat, pastry
or coffee is served and the food cram
is III has glory, and arguments and
tneoHieS galore advanced to prove
that meat was never intended for hu-
man Stomachs. and almost MAKE us
beneVe that our sturdy ancestors who
lived four-Score years III robust hearth
on roast beef, pork and mutton must
have been grossly ignorant OF the
laws of health.
Our foretatherA had other things 10
do than formulate theories about the
food they ate. A warm welcome was
extended to any kind, from bacon to
acorns.
A healthy appetite and common
sense are eXcenent guides to follow
in nwtters OF diet. and d mixed diet
of grains. fruits and meats is undOuDt-
eddy the best
AS compared with grains ana FeSt-
tables meat furnishes the most nutri-
ment in a highly concentrated form
and is digested and assimilated more
quickly tnan vegetables or grains.
Or. julius Remmson. on this sub
| ject, says: Nervous persons, people
should eat meat and plenty of it. If
the digestion is too feebre at first it
may be easily corrected by the reg
ular use of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tab
| let's after each meal Two of these
excellent tablets taken after dinner
will digest several thousand grains Df
meat, eggs or other animal food in
three hours, and no matter how weak
! the stomach may be, no trouble will
| be experienced if a regular practice is
made of using Stuarts Dyspepsia Tab
let's. because they supply the pepsin
| and diaStase necessary to perfect di-
gestiotn, and every form of Indigestion
will be overcome by their use.
That large class of people who
come under the head of nervous dys-
peptics should eat plenty of meat and
| insure it's proper digestion by the
daily use of a safe, harmless diges-
| tive medicine like Stuart'S Dyspepsia
Tablets, composed of the natural d.
gestive principles pepsin, diastase
| fruit acids and salts. which actually
| perform the work of digestion. Cheap
cathartic medicines. masquerading
under the name of dyspepsia cures
are useless for indigestion, as they
have absolutely no effect upon the
actual digestion of food
Dyspepsia in all it's many forms
| is simply a failure of the stomach tC
digest food, and the sensible way &c
solve the riddle and cure the dyspepsia
| is to make daily use at meal time of
a preparation like Stuart's Dyspepsia
! Tablets, which is endorsed by the
medical profession and known to con-
tain active digestive principles.

NOT FATAL DISEASE
instruction Better for
tuberculosis Than
Medication.

DR.. r. II. Lewis, editor of the bull
let;n of the North Carolina Board OF
Health, publishes in the October num-
Der which was issued yesterday, a
paper by DIR. c. p. Amber, of Ashe-
ville,' on 1.-THE Physicians Paramount
Duty to the Patient and Family in
pulmonary tuberculosis" DR.. Lewis
says it goes to the very heart of pre-
senting and curing tuberculosis.
One of the vibrant sentences of the
paper is: tuberculosis is not the ia
tai disease commonly believed.
Disgrace to the Profession.
DR.. Amber says:
1t is an unfortunate fact and dis
grace to our profession. both city and
country, that a large number of the
consumptives Living among us today
have been treated" for months, and
in many instances for years, before
the true nature of their malady was
recognized; that symptoms which
should have been recognized and
should at once have aroused suspicion
of tuberculosis. have either been ne
elected or attributed to other causes.
Thus, during the early stages of the
disease, by our own careleSSneSs, have
we, in thousands of cases, robbed the
trust ng patient of every chance fol
recovery while we piled him with
''tonics' and cough remedies"
Next to an early diagnosis, the most
important point for the physicians is
the instruction of the patient. So
long as the cowardly evasion of the
truth to the patient be continued by
our profession, we must expect to sec
the disease become more wide spread
The profession over the country is,
not as a rule, telling the patient the
truth.
1.-The day may come when we can
as successfully vaccinate agains, tub
erculoss as we do today against
smallpox
In conclusion, DR.. Amber says:
Tuberculosis is not the fatal dis
ease commonly believed.
while communicable, it can prac-
tically be made innocuous by the prop
er course on the part of the patient.
1.-THE chief cause of the large NOR
tality is late diagnosis"

MACHINE SHOP BURNS.
A Night Fire I'm Raleigh Eats up

Just about two o'clock this morning
fire destroyed the frame building on
west Cabarrus street known as the

The engine, the saw and other ma
chinery were destroyed, these valued at
about 5000. 1t is not known that
there is any insurance. The build

The adjoining house occupied by
some disreputable negro women
caught on fire and the roof was in
flames Quick work by the fire de-
partment saved the building, the ne
r~roes moving out their household
goods to the street.
The alarm of fire was first given
bv engines at the Southern depot and
then the city alarm sounded from box

DIVORCE JUDGMENT SET ASIDE.
Affidavit of Defendant Alleging Scri-
Gus Facts Causes Judge Cooke
to Strike Out Judgment and
Verdict and Issue Bench War
rant for Plaintiff.

In the Superior court yesterday.
Judge Cooke set aside the verdict and
judgment given earlier in the term in
the divorce SUIT of Willis Johnson VS..
Mary Johnson, on the ground of al
leged desertion by the wife, and issued
the case, whose whereabouts are at
present unknown.
This action was taken as the result
of an affidavit by the woman which
was read by her attorney, r. n.
Simms, Esq, and in which she charges
facts if true would render the plaintiff
in the divorce case liable to indictment
for perjury.
The AFFIDAVIT recites that Willis
Johnson and the afiiant, both of whom
are cotton mill operatives, were mar
ried several years ago and lived to-
gether for about year Just before
q chird was born to the wife the hus-
band left home and stayed away for
a long time, leaving his wife and child
without means of support; that he
afterwards came back and wished TO
resume the marital relation but that
affiant refused to live with him eX-
cept on his promise not to again de-
sert her, which promise the husband
refused to give. Later he brought &C
ton for divorce and the woman de-
clareS that she came to Raleigh to
answer at the october term OF court
and that. while here, she had a re-
Cancellation with her husband and that
they again lived together until his
second deserton of her, she claiming
that it was understood that the divorce
suit had been withdrawn. Afterwards
the husband. she alleges. sent for his
trunk by a friend whom he enJoined
enjoined not to tell his whereabouts.
She then, she says. took the trunk and
brought it to Raleigh herself and
sonught the plaintiff but could not find
him. While destitute in this city she
read in the paper that the divorce had
been granted.
Judge Cooke in setting aside the
verdict and issuing the bench warrant
stated that he hesitated to sign the
judgment since the testimony Of the
plaintiff was unsupported and on ac-
count of the admission of the plaintiff
that he had never furnished dollar
towards the support of his child
In the case of Virginia Cotton Mills
VS.. Textile Finishing Company, there
was judgment of non-suit.
The case of Leach VS.. Osborne, the
matter out of which grew the Osborne
libel suit against Leach and the News
and Observer went off the calendar
as compromised and settled.
The case of Hughes and Company
VS. Knott and Williamson, as to con-
tract for the sale of tobacco, is being
tried, the case having been sent back
for re-trial by the Supreme court.

Baltimore. Md. Nov. Slate re-

to the result of yesterdays election in
this city and State. With few pre-

That the lower house of the State
legislature will be Democratic, is con-
coded by Republican sources of in
formation. 1t will probably be made
up of fifty-three Democrats, three In
dependent Democrats and fortyfve
Republicans. The State Senate stands
Is Democrats and 8 Republicans. The
Democrats will therefore elect the
State treasurer and the board of pub
lie works will be Democratic. The
election of Padgett, Republican, as

had been doubt, is now conceded.

Jefferson City, Mo-, Nov. 8.-W. d.
Vandiver, State Superintendent of In
surance, tonight suspended the GER
tificates of authority of New York
Life Insurance company to do bus

The order gives as reasons for the
action that the Superintendent of In

the said company have been impaired
by the diversion of large sums of mon
cy for illegal and wrongful purposes
and that the further continuance of
the said New York Life Insurance
