Breathing and Digestion.

The stomach lies just below the
diaphragm, and portion of the me-
chanlcal work of the stomach, the
mlngling of the food and the digestive
fluids, is performed by the diaphragm,
which, as it moves up and down,
kneads the stomach and it's contents.
and so greatly aids digestion. In or
binary breathing in a quiet person the
movements of the chest are so slight
as to be scarcely noticeable, and the
action of the diaphragm produces lit
tie effect; but by moderate exercise
these movements are greatly in
creased, more than doubled, and the
stomach is theoretically kneaded. In
this way, moderate exercise after eat
ing is beneficial. The practice of
breathing movements Is also very
helpful for persons who have slow
digestion. .
Exercise out Of doors is especially
helpful. Fresh air, and especially
cold air, sharpens the appetite, and
creates demand for food by burning
up the waste matters with which the
tissues are clogged, and preparing the
way for new material, which digestion
introduces into the blood.

Remarkable Cure of Dropsy by Dodd's
Kidney Pills.
/SedgWick, Ark, June 19.-The case
OF w. S. Taylor's little son is looked
upon by those interested in medical
matters as one of the most wonderful
on record. In this connection his faith
er makes the following statement:
Last September my little boy had
dropsy; his feet and limbs were swol-
len to such an extent that he could
not walk or put his shoes on. The
treatment that the doctors were giving
him seemed to do him no good, and
two or three people said his days
were short, even the doctors, two of
the best in the country told me he
would not get better. l stopped their
medicine and at once sent for Dodd's
Kidney Pills. l gave him three Pills a
day, one morning, noon and night for
eight days; at the end of the eighth
day the swelling was all gone, but to
give the medicine justice, Il gave him
eleven more pills. l used thirty-fve
Pills in all and he was entirely cured.

cts All Dead"

A physician recently related an Incl
dent which had come under his OBJ
servation showing the aversion a Ger
tain little fellow of entertained for
dead chickens. On being seated at q
table upon which was an uncarved
chicken, he cried out in evident dis.
tress, TITS all dead, mamma! I must
have hurried it, and he could scarcely
be persuaded to remain at the table
until the dead creature was carved
past recognition.
Children are naturally tender and
sympathetic, not only toward each
other, but also solicitous for the wei.
fare of the lower animals. The parents
of this child will probably congratulate
themselves when his tender nature be.
comes SO calloused that the sight of a
dead animal being devoured will seem
to him entirely consistent, and will no
longer excite his pity.
Many of the boys in the stock yard
districts of our large cities are further
advanced in education in this line, for
they consider it rare amusement to
torment the live stock before they are
unloaded from the stock cars. One
method is to poke them with redhot
irons until the animals give vent to
the most piteous outcries.
The barbarous custom of college
hazing is another manifestation of
this same spirit of cruelty, which,
when implanted early enough in the
child's mind and then carefully fos.
tered and cultivated, will invariably
IN due time produce a bountiful har.
vest OF undesirable fruits in various
shocking manifestations of human
cruelty.

Rev. E. M. Sweet, secretary Of

while the federation as an orgaui-

that the prohibition clause in the
Sequoyah constitution will cause
many Of the members of the organ
