Stomach Abuse
Lecture to the Swell Guests of the
Hot Springs Hotels

The closing health lecture of the
subscription course arranged by the
guests of the fashionable hotels of Hot
Springs (Ark.) was delivered by one
of the most prominent physicians of
national reputation. He took occasion
to score the wealthy and people in gem
e-al on their mistreatment of the stom-
ach which is the fountain head OF
health. BY overeating and indulging
in foods of too much acid and too many
sweets indigestion is brought on which
eventually is responsible for 70 per
cent of diseases, especially rheumatism
and kidney disorders. He advised that
the first indication of dyspepsia or in
digestion be promptly relieved; the
symptoms being sour stomach, belch-
ing and sick headache.
For this purpose and also the ulti-
mate cure of dyspepsia he highly en-
dorsed what is known as the Pasteur
formula. This was given t. the audi
ence, who were told to copy it.
1.-TWO ounces Essence of Pepsin, three
ounces Syrup of Ginger, one ounce Ca
tandir Compound. These to be mixed
a. used in doses of from one to two
teaspoonfuls after each meal, also at
bedtime for the first week"
The ingredients obtainable from any
good drug store, and the doctor added
that with this treatment and usiag
common sense rules about diet a per-
son could easily regain normal diges-
tion and ward off serious complications.

one of the 300 employees got dollar.
out of $4,000 needed by the firemen

exhausted an hour after the treasurer's

ESTELLE CORWELL
SECURES DELAY
TRIAL FOR MURDER SET FOR
JANUARY 13
Securing Of Further Testimony Plea
of Defense in Argument Asking
Postponement-Prosecution
Opposes Move

Estelle Corwell, charged with the MUIR
der of George Bennett, appeared before
Judge Curtis d. Wilbur yesterday after
noon. Her attorney, H. H. Appel, argued
on petition presented several days ago
moving to have the hearing postponed
until the deposition of witnesses In Ari-
zona can be obtained.
Most of these witnesses are wanted
for the purpose of testifying to the char
acter of the defendant and Judge Wilbur
was reluctant to grant the delay for that
purpose alone unless the plea of the
defense was to be insanity. Attorney
Appel also claims to have certain evil
dence bearing directly on the murder
and wants time to secure the presence
in Los Angeles of William Desserie and
wife.
Deputy District Attorney Blair opposed
the extension OF the time for the hear
ing, arguing that the defense had already
had sufficient time and that the testi-
mony sought did not Justify further post
ponement.
Attorney Davis, Mrs. CorwelPs former
counsel, explained that the reason his
firm withdrew from the case was that
the parents of the defendant failed to
produce the money demanded as a guar
antee.
Judge Wilbur granted continuance Of
the hearing until January 13.

uuoise and diamond, and the other was

.pue. and the woman, in an almost faint

good will at the closing of the festivities

Bell Greeted LustiIy
Sheriff Hammel made brief remarks be-
fore introducing the grand worthy presi-
dent, Theordore A. Bell, who was greeted
with loud cheers. ~
Mr.. Bell challenged the right of the
former speaker in first complimenting the
ladies in such high terms and therefore
getting ahead of him in words of praise
But the speaker let 1t all pass with a
good grace and expressed his congratula-
tions to the local aerie who so kindly
entertained the high official members of
the order. He said In part:
II believe in judicious praise and that
much good is to be derived from 1t.
even among the Eagles. This order is
advancing by leaps and bounds, and 1t
stands us in hand to be careful who
we receive within its ranks. / shall do
all in my power to keep out of the order
all objectionable men who may attempt
to work within the confines of the order
for the sake of being carried along by
the aid of others more deserving.
Our. order is mostly made up of the
middle classes. and we all appreciate them
as worthy members. 1t is not the wealthy
people who affiliate with US in our fra
ternal work. We need the cooperation of
ell worthy men in our noble work.
1--WE should uphold and maintain the
good character of all mankind. l have
more fellowship for the prisoner or muir
derer than have for a man addicted to
the destruction of character"
After the address OF Mr.. Bell he was
greeted with many hearty handshakes by
the Eagles and the women present. The
evening closed with dancing.

Apt Pupils In Crime.

Commissioner Bingham of the New
York police intimates that he believes
that the enormous influx of immigrants
is responsible for the wave of crimes
against helpless women and girls which
has opened a new page in our. police an
nails Numerous offenses of the kind
have been traced to young men or
grownup youths born in Europe.
Where so many grave crimes are fas-
tened upon foreign born persons it is
natural that the people in their rage
should make the immigrant the scape-
goat in every case, whether the proof
Is clear or not
But it is reasonable to suppose that
the immigrant class should furnish
more than its normal average Of vicious
persons. Even with the best OF moral
intent in themselves the parents cannot
control their boys in this country as
they could at home Boys soon learn
to take advantage Of the larger liberty
or America. Unfortunately their first
school is the street, and the rowdies
they meet there find them apt pupils
The picture given them of life and OPP
portunity in this country is a glowing
one, and the upshot Of it Is that they
imagine they can have anything they
want If they simply take it, Forbidden
fruit is always attractive to the young,
and the newly landed immigrant would
be marvel if he withstood the tempt
ers who wayiay his path at every turn.
AS a rule, the boys who come over
here Of school age inherit the indus
trious and thrifty habits of their ia
theirs. The chance to earn money
takes them away from the haunts of
loafers and criminals. If reached by
moral influence before the time of Grim
inal awakening comes to them they
might be kept from ever drifting into
crime
