Very few people are free from some
form of Indigestion. but scarcely two

Some suffer most directly after eat
ing, bloating from gas in stomach and
bowels, others have heartburn or sour
risings, still others have palpitation of
heart, headaches, s;leeplessness, pains IN
chest and under shoulder blades. some
have extreme nervousness. as In merry
Gus dyspepsia.
But whatever the symptoms may ne,
the cause in all cases of Indigestion IS
the same. that is the stomach for some
reason fails to properly and promptly
digest what is eaten.
This is the whole story of stomach
troubles in nutshell. The stomach
must have rest and assistance and

The debates in the Senate and House
on the subject of restricting the sale

posed to transform into States were
not taken in altogether kindly part by
some Of the people in those distant

Many of them thought Congress had
no right to impose restrictions on the
sovereignty OF a newly-admitted State
that would not apply to other States.

THE ABSURD AGE LIMIT.

One of the most illogical and unjust regulations ever adopted by any em- ployer was that which forbid the em- ployment or retention of men over forty
 years of age. The regulation was put in force by many of the railroads, hut
 some of them at least have seen the error and injustice of such fantastical ruling and have rescinded 1t. We no- tice that several of the largest railroad systems of the Northwest have aban- doned the regulation One of them. the Chicago and Alton. was the first to adopt the rule. but they now announce that they will employ half of the stan without regard to age. Two other large systems in Indiana will accept ca- pacity for service on it's face value" In the language of a contemporary. the notion that the worlds work of today can be as effectively done by men under 40 alone as by men under and men over 40 together. is essentially fantastical, since 1t ignores the value of experience and maturity of judgment. factors that always have entered and always must enter into the successful performance of any work that Is worth being done."
 There was neither sense nor justice in the ruling in the first place. There are probably positions in railroad service as well as in other employments where young men can render more effective service than old ones can, but on the other hand. there are old men whose matured Judgment and experience rem younger man would be- The age limit is irrational, and dropping 1t is sem sibla

A SETBACK FOR HEARST. The Brooklyn Eagle remarks:

Judge Holt has decided that part of the newspaper with which It is published and not in any sense maga- zine; also that it cannot possibly be zine pure and simple, no matter what the title. So Mir Hearst loses bis case, the court declining. to grant 2 mort. possession of the earth has not yet been Instituted. --:
 That movement was an exhibition of intolerance and gall which would hard ly be possible in any man but William R. Hearst. He has allowed the idea to get into his head that he is a great man and there seems no limit to his self importance. Without the great fortune left him by his father, he would never have attracted attention, but he has the idea that money can buy anything, and
 
 acting~Un that belief he makes himself ridiculous as well as obnoxious. The idea that the courts would aid him in an effort to prevent publishers all over the Union using the words American Magazine'' e''~could hardly have found lodgement in the brain of any other person. If he had gained this demand, it is not unlikely that suit for posses sion of the earth" would have followed
 The suit which has just failed was against the publishers of the late Frank Leslie's Monthly. The name has been changed to ''rhe American Illustrated Magasine,' and because Hearst pub fishes a newspaper with American" attached to it, he applied or an i'm junction to prev ent the Leslie publishers from using the word. An ordinary in- divIduaI would think that the word American cannot be copyrighted, or used by one publisher to the exclusion of all other publishers. but that didn't prevent Hearst from trying 1t. AL though he failed in that effort. he achieved some additional notoriety, and that Is what he thrives on.

LONG OR SHORT SCHOOL HOURS,

There is. and has been for some time, continuous and persistent agitation in favor of shorter hours for school children. The demand now is for only five hours a day. but if that should be granted and established, we doubt if it will long remain satisfactory and a still further reduction will be asked for. and probably granted. Shorter hours in school and more home study Is the fad.
 Occasionally. there is a good word on the other side, and one of the latest Is from a correspondent of The Outlook, who enters his protest against home study. After school hours" he writes, "a child should be free all the rest of the day. Such crowding only invites nervous breakdown" The writer says nothing of the proper length of the hours of study. but if all home study is to be abolished, 1t will naturally be found necessary to extend the hours at school. and this is what should be done. instead of continually shortening them.
 
 that long school hours are responsible for weakly children. We do not admit that the children of the present day have more vitality, mental or physical, than they did fifty years ago. conditions being equal Then. eight hours a day was not considered too long, but when | the school closed in the afternoon, all study was over for the day. except for few of the oldest pupils who were in no danger of being injured by a little study at night Eight hours day, with proper intermissions and play hours, would not be too much now. Then let the studies close with the end of the days session; let the books re- msin in the school house, and let the children be absolutely free till school opens next morning.
 | Does 1t ever strike any one that all this clamOr for shorter hours is entirely in the interest of the teachers and not of the children? If the teacher can i get their pay and only spend five hours out of the twenty-four in the school room. 1t Is easy for them, but 1t Is not easy for the child who has to carry home a load of books and study them when 1t ought to be resting, playing or sleeping. It is not easy for the parents and others at home who have to do nearly all the teaching for which the teachers are supposedly paid
