A Definition Of sueeess.

How have the hypothetical scien-
lists and the exponents OF unbelief
benefited themselves or humanity at
large by sowing the seeds OF doubt
broadcast in the world? The real SCI
entists do not fall In this category. for
they are believers In the real sense OF
the word; they know too much, they
have seen too many mysterious mani
festations OF the Divine creative pow
er. Now, those who have disposed Of
the Bible and all evidences of inspira-
ton, have written a great many books
and some OF them have won what the
world at large lightly calls fame. Ac-
cording to the ordinary measures that
are applied In such cases. they have
been extremely successful. but real
success means the benefit OF human
ity in some form or other. II no such
benefits can be shown as the result OF
their labors. their success Is not equal
to that achieved by the direst poverty
and the deepest Ignorance. - Joel

Starchy food is not digested in the
upper stomach but passes on into the
duodenum, or lower stomach and in
testines, where. in healthy individ-
ual, the transformation of the starch
into a form Of sugar is completed and

But il the powers OF digestion are

be good, practical. common sense, to
discontinue the starchy food which is
causing the trouble and take a food
in which the starch has been trans
formed into a form Of sugar in the

This is identically the same form OF

preventative measures are far and

Does Golfers expect TO regain any
self-inflicted loss of prestige by de-
monstrating thru suits for damages,
that il can be more artful in eyading

Golfers can not dodge this public
