In a general way, hunger may be

In general way, hunger may be considered a symptom of health, and its absence an indication of the ap- proach, at least, of disease Under normal conditions, the appetite is closely dependent upon the require ments of the system. The sensation of hunger is an exceedingly complex one, being dependent on and modified by the condition of nearly every tis- sue and organ of the body It is nat ural for the child to be always hun gry, because it is growing, making new tissue, and requiring g large SUD- ply of tissue-forming food, says the New York Weekly. With the very aged, quite the opposite condition ex- ists, as there is no actual rebuilding. Suitable nourishment is required sim ply to keep the machine going. Nor nal hunger is frequently interfered with by mental distress, the sight of unattractive food, unhygienic sur- roundings, excessively hot weather, overfatigue and most forms of dis ease. Even headache will generally render one indifferent to the most tempting food.

Jones, who was at that time governor of Arkansas, in which he called for troops from the State militia. The letter contained an affidavit for MT.

Jones had drawn up and he states that he will sign it and give the date when he issued the call for two regiments of the State troops, which date was April 25. As soon as the affidavit is signed by MT. Jones it will be forwarded to the Washing ton attorneys and they will bring the matter before the War Department.
