What to do
in Dyspepsia

Dieting has become a great fad in
America, and just as, years ago, we, as
a nation, over-ate, so now we are under
eating. The one is as bad as the other.
Man needs food and plenty Of it to sus-
tain life and to give strength to compete
in this busy world.
1t Is not, however, the fact that you
may eat too much that hurts you, but
that you don't digest what you eat.
And II that results In dyspepsia you will not
cure the trouble by cutting down your food sup
ply. II your digestive organs were creating the
proper amount OF gastric and peptic juices you
would have no dyspepsia, TO cure the disease
you must create an abundance OF these necessary
Juices.

Some Thoughts for the Employee.

1t is a well known fact that
business men are growing to de-
mand very much better work
than they did a few years ago.
Conseq uently if the work done
by their present help does not
measure up to the standard Of
their needs, they viii eventually
look for other help who will do
the work better, Strange as it
seem, they often offer to the
newcomers a larger compensa-
ton if the work, after a trial, is
done as they want it. This is
why many old operators are
obliged to resort to employment
agencies for assistance and why
less experienced operators with
systems well mastered and with
good educations walk in, demand
-and receive -better pay.
To win the larger measure OF
success, it is necessary for one
to adapt oneself to the require
ments Of those who instruct and
of those who employ, from the
time of entering school to the
close of business career. People
do not voluntarily help pupils OF
employees who do not help them
selves. The world always re
spects the man who respects
On the other hand,
is always a pleasure for an in
structor to push forward a pup
who works hard and does wei
the work assigned. 1t is ais
true that business men ar
equally anxious to help thei
employees who take an interes
in their work; they take a dc
light in having in their emplo,
individuals who do not watch tn
o'clock, individuals who do thing
without being everlastingly tolC
individuals who appear with

mote events are clearly causes of
such disappointments. For the
Boer War, so far as concerned
the world Of business, which
does not trouble itself with

thousand millions Of liquid

stupendous financial loss came
the war between Russia and

of capital disappeared forever
something like a billion and a
qparter of dollars. Then came
the San Francisco disaster.

eoMPERs ATTACKS TAFT.
Says Candidate Has Lost His Temp
DIGNITY and Good Manners.

Washington, Oct. "a CALLING fire Of
caustic denunciation Of Judge Taft
poured Saturda- night from Samuel
Gompers, president of the American
Federation of Labor. His firing to right
and left caught James S. Sherman and
Joseph G. Cannon.
Gompers' ire has been raised by re-
ports that Judge Taft has charged him
with making lying statements. He
charges the candidate with going from
bad to worse and with losing his
temper as we'll as his manners and
dignity and declares that he can not
meet the truth and justice Of labors
contention" but has "resorted TO the
we'll known policy of the pettifogger,'
and says that Taft evidently believes
that by accusing me he can excuse
himself from bad situation"
Gompers attacked the republican
platform and Taft's lti-injunction de-
lcision and said that Justice Gould OF
the district court recently cites the
Taft opinion in the injunction case
against Gompers brought by the Bucks
Stove & Range company. He declared
that the injunction prohibits every
body connected with the American
Federation of Labor from the right of
free speech and free press.

Another striking Indication of the
prosperity is the activity of diamond

the fair statements of their mo-
tiyes. In beginning to discharge
this duty as to their own recent
history the Southern people were
startled by the discovery that the
youths of the country were threat

AUl strife through the evil infu-
ences of sectional literature. His
tory books were complacently pre-
sented for adoption by school
boards, although infested with sec
tional unfairness. St at NJ n S
were printed in such books which
were but half truths, while truths
were so adulterated with errors as
to be no longer true and pure,
while paragraphs were adroitly
constructed SO as to carry conceal
ed the deadly dagger of misrepre-
sentation. 1t was evident that du-
ty demanded resistance to this cor
ruption of literature pretending
to be historical truth, and it is
gratifying to know that the effort
to strike down the pernicious evil
has been rewarded by considerable
success, but the strict exclusion of
all unfair publications must be Wig
orously- enforced and the books
themselves must be consigned to
the homes of patriotic Indignation.
Southern authorship is winning
high appreciation by the public.
The SoutK is rich in talent, ex-
perience and other wealth to enter
the fields of literature, where the
greater success only awaits the
greater endeavor to achieve it.
Glaring wrongs can be best reme-

their part in the literature refor-
nation. If the youth of the South |
shall not hereafter know the spIen-
did history of their own section
and the true value of Southern his

fault of their fathers. The fact is
lamentable that the passing of for
ty years has been required to sat
isfy the public mind that the broad !
generosity and not narrow ami
mostly should be the prevailing
spirit of American literature; that
praises and not obloquy, fair play
and not foul play, should distin-
guish signally and specially the
permanent narration of that nigh
ty struggle between the sections
which closed without the loss of
even one essential principle that
essened the rights and duties of
our people, our States and our '
General Government. {
