The Farmers Wife

Is very careful about her churn. She
scalds it thoroughly after using, and gives
it 4 sun bath to sweeten it. She knows
that if her churn is soul it will faint the
buttor that is made in it. The stomach is
q churn. In the stomach and digestive
and nutritive tracts are performed pro-
cesSes which are almost exactly like the
churning of butter. Is it not apparent
then that if this Stomach-churn is foul it
makes foul all which is put into it?
The evil of q foul stomach is not alone
the bad taste in the mouth and the foul
breath caused by it, but the corruption of
the pure current of blood and the dissem-
nation of disease throughout the body.
DR.. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery
makes the sour and foul stomach sweet.
1t does for the stomach what the washing
and sun bath do for the churn-abselutely
removes every tainting or corruptihg ele-
ment. In this way it cures blotches,
pimples, eruptions, scrofulous %swel1ings,
sores, or open eating ulcers n all
humors or diseases arising from bad blood.
If you have bitter, nasty, foul taste in
your mouth, coated tongue, foul breath,
are weak and easily tired, feel depressed
and respondent, have frequent headaches,
dizzy attacks, gnawing or distress in stom-
ach, constipated or irregular bowels, our

That the human soul has a material
vehicle susceptible of being measured and
weighed by human science is the con-
clusion of six years of experimentation by
Drs. Duncan, MacDougall and Syroul of
Haverhill and DIR. Grant of Lawrence,
Mass. The experiments in question were
conducted in a Massachusetts sanitarium.
and were kept an entire secret from the
outside world until definite results could
be shown. The essential point thus far
developed is that Immediately after the
heart has ceased to beat and at the mo-
ment when, in the usual phraseology, the
soul leaves the body" there is an appre-
ciable loss in the bodily weight which
cannot be accounted for by n scientific
deductions dealing with known physical
data.
Preparatory to the tests, the doctors
arranged a bed for dying patients on
scales SO carefully balanced that the
slightest deviation became at once appar-
ent. The experiments covered several
cases. including both men and women,
and in every instance the result was prac-
tically the same, showing a loss in weight
of from one-half ounce to an ounce with
in a few seconds after the cessation of
physical life. Ii was noted as an inter
eStlDg incident that while generally this
change occurred Immediately after the
heart had ceased to beat. in the case of a
phlegmatic man., slow of thought and &C
ton, the change was delayed a full min
ute after apparent death. The observa-
tions and notes were made by the physi-
clans separately, but careful comparison
showed them to be in substantial accord,
and all attempts to disprove the sound
ness of their conclusions have failed to
change the result. In connection with
these experiments tests were also made
with the lower animals, principally dogs,
the result in those cases being that no de-
Walton of the scales was perceptible when
the life departed.
While these experiments are not con
sidered conclusive by scientists, they have
very naturally aroused much interest
among psychologists and the general pub
