-raain thin, from temporamental rea-
sons. Probably in such cases nothing
can be done to change this personal
peculiarly.
But there are a large number OF peo.
pie who get thin, or remain thin, who
naturally would be plump and tieshy
but for some digestive arrangement
Thin people lack in adipose tissue.
Adipose tissue IL chiefly composed OF
fat.
Fat is derived from the oily constit-
uents of food.
The fat-making foods are called by
tho Psychologist, hydrocarbons. This
class OF foods are not digested in the
stomach at all. They are digested in
the ~duodenum, the division of b all
mentary canal inst below The stomach.
The digestion Of fat Is mainly, II not
wholly, the work of the pancrestic
Juice. This juice Is of alkaline reac-
ton, and is rendered inert by the addi-
ton Of acid. A hyporacidity of the
digestive fluids Of the stomach passing
down into the duodenum, destroys
the pancreatic fluid for digestive pur-
poses. Therefore, the fats are not di-
gestcd or cmulsified, and the system il
deprived Of its due proportion of oily
constituents. Hence, the patient grows
thin.
The beginning of the trouble Is q ca
.t0rrhal condition Of the stomach which
uses hyperacidity Of the gastrio
juices. This hyperacidity is caused by
fermentation of food in the stomach.
When the food is taken into tho stom-
ZACH, IL the process Of digestion does
begin Immediately, acid fermenta-
ton Will take place. This creates q
hyperscidity of the stomach Juices
which in their turn prevent the pam
digestion Of the oils, and the
results. y
A dose Of Peruna before each meal
hastens the stomach digestion. BY
hurrying digestion, Peruna prevents
fermentation of the contents of the
stomach, and the pancreatic juice is thus
preserved in Its normal state. It then
only remains for the patient to 20
amount OF fat-forning foods,
and the thinness disappears and piump-
ness takes Its place.

NEW YORK, May u.-Another YER

Josephn Engel on Saturday. when he
found the wife for whom he had been
searching fifteen years with another
husband ensconced in his place. was
then taken into custody ON a fictitious
charge. and in clearing himself Of
this brought about the arrest OF the
woman on a charge of bigamy. All
this happened in North Bergen, n. ).
Engel. who IS forty years old, says
that in 1854 he married Theckla Hader
now about thirty-siN, in Germany, but
TWO days after the wedding She de-
serted him. He traced her TO America
ana spent years of time and all the
money he had in a fruitless search for
her. Finally he obtained employment
in Connecticut. but recently lost his
position anC started of on the double
mission OF looking for work and for
his wife
He reached North Bergen Saturday
and was walking through Van burcn
street when he observed a woman wash

thing familiar about her and, moving
closer, he gave an exclamation OF JOY
and cried, '-rheCkla.' The woman
recognized him. but her greeting was

Thereupon he told his story and pro

the woman, who denied the story, but
eventually admitted the truth, saying
she had been forced by her father into
the marriage with lCngel, whom she
did not love, and had fed 10 America,
where she was married TO WiniSA
about six years ago. She was then
locked up on a charge of bigamy. and
