necessarily have been very strong To
make case. Two of the jurors stood
for conviction to the last and are re.
ported to have said that they still be.
lieve that the verdict should have been
against Haywood but that they finally
consented to a verdict of not guilty
rather than force a new trial by hung
jury.
The trial will be followed by some
good results and probably by some bad
results. 1t has shown up in pretty
clear light the alarming extent to which
questionable and even criminal methods
are resorted to in waging the war be-
tween labor and capital and it is well
for the people to know the facts in re-
gard TO these labor troubles that they
may realize the danger that threatens
our government from this source.
On the other hand the verdict seems
to have been received by the labor or
sanizations as great victory for the
cause of union labor. Such a conclus-
ion is unreasonable for the cause of
union labor was not on trial but. upon
hose who 80 regard the results of the
rial, il will have the effect of intensi-
fying their already bitter feelings to-
ward those with whom their interests

INTESTINAL INDIGESTION.
Its Symptoms and the Way 1t Should
He Treated.

Its Symptoms and the Way 1t Should
He Treated.
1t was formerly thought that the
stomach was the main organ of diges-
ton, and dyspepsia was supposed al
ways to have its seat there. But this
question has been much studied of
late, with the result that the stomach
has been found to be of little account
comparatively in the preparation of the
food for absorption. The most impor-
tant part of digestion occurs in the up
per part of the intestine, where the
food, after leaving the stomach, is
churned and mixed thoroughly with
the bile and pancreatic secretion.
Since, then, the intestine takes such
an important part in digestion, it is
natural to suppose that failure to
perform this function properly would
give rise to serious disturbances of
health, and such, i'm fact, is the case.
Intestinal indigestion is not uncom
mon affection at all periods of life
and is especially prevalent i'm children.
The chief symptoms are 1latulence, or
wind, more or less collie, diarrhea, or
more often constipation, or an alterna

alton.
The treatment is mainly through diet
but this will vary, of course, according
to age. In an infant the problem is a
difficult one. If the child is fed arti-
ficially all prepared foods containing
starch should be taken away, and
cows milk, modified as to the amount
of fat, sugar or casein it contains, ac-
cording to the physicians directions,
should be substituted.
If the infant is nursing the life of the
mother should he studied. for the state
of her health may affect the milk in
