YOU'RETOO THIN,
Even Slight Catarrhal Deraneem<nks
cJ the .SfomacA Produce -deid Fer
nenkaiion Of tie Food
It's Stomach Cutu,7k

Some people are thin and always re-
main thin, from temperamental rea-
sons. Probably in such cases nothing
can be done to change this personal
peculiarity.
But there are a large number of peo-
pie who get thin, or remain thin, who
naturally would be plump and fleshy
but for some digestive arrangement.
Thin people lack in adipose tissue.
Adipose tissue is chiefly composed OF
fat.
Fat is derived from the oily constit-
uents of food.
The fat-malSing foods are called by
the physiologist, hydrocar bons. This
class OF foods are not digested in tho
stomach at all. They arc digested in
the duodenum, the division of the ali
mcntary canal just below the stomach.
The digestion of fat is mainly, II not
wholly, the work of the pancreatic
juice. This juice is of alkaline rcac-
tion, and is rendered inert by the addi-
tion of acid. A hyperacidity 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 dl-
gested or emulsifled, and the system is
deprived of its due proportion of oily
constituents. Hence, the patient grows
thin.
The beginning of the trouble Is n ca
tarrhal condition of the stomach which
causes hyperacidity of the gastric
juices. This hyperacidity is caused by
fermentation of food in the stomach.
When the food is taken into the stom-
ach, If the process of digestion does
not begin Immediately, acid fermenta-
ton will take place. This creates n
hyperacidity of the stomach juices
which in their turn prevent the pam
create digestion of the oils, and the
emaciation results.
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. 1t then
only remains for the patient to eat 4
sufficient amount OF fat-forming foods,
and the thinness disappears and plump
ness takes its place.

Amid this pandemonium. and with
the galleries In full control. Chairman
Lodge decided upon heroic action in
order again to make the convention
master OF its affairs. He ordered the
roll call of states to begin for the
vote on president. Such a call. under
such circumstances of intense con
fusion. has probably never before oc-
Cured in the history of national con
ventions. The secretary was power
less to make his call OF the states
heard above the deafening clamor.
Selling n megaphone he shouted the
roll OF states-Alahama, Arkansas
but his voice was swallowed UP In the
mad uproar. Gradually. however. the
curiosity of the multitude conquered
their enthusiasm. and they lapsed into
silence to hear the result of the roll
call
A hush OF expectancy hung over
the assembly as the call proceeded
Hasty summaries showed that Taft
was far in advance. When New York
was reached the Taft column totaled
427. Ohio carried the Taft total to
mate. Still the call went on until the
final result was announced by Chair
man Lodge:
For Theodore Roosevelt. 3 votes;
for Joseph b. Foraker of Ohio 1b
votes: for Charles w. Fairbanks OF
Indiana, 40 votes: for Joseph Cannon
of Illinois. 81 votes; for Robert La Fol-
lette OF Wisconsin, 25 votes; for
Charles f. Hughes Of New York. 63
votes: for Philander c. Knox OF Penn
sylvania. 6S votes. and William II. Taft
Of Ohio. 702 votes.

concluded his announcement. and with
one accord the cohorts of Cannon and
Knox and Hughes and the other
heroes, Joined in a common tribute for
the candidate of the party.
Sherman for Second Place.
The nomination for the vice-presi'
dency was not made until Friday
When the convention adjourned for
the day Thursday the situation re-
garding second place on the ticket was
decidedly unsettled, but before the del
egates met Friday an arrangement had
been perfected for the Taft delegates
to support Representative James S.
Sherman of New York as the running
mate Of the secretary Of war.
Three names were placed In nomi-
nation when the chairman announced
that nominations we're in order. Sher-
man was named as New York's choice
by Tim Woodruff. former lieutenant
governor Of the state; Gov Curtis
Guild of Massachusetts was placed In
nomination by Senator Lodge. and Ex'
Gov. Franklin Murphy of New Jersey
was named by Thomas N. McCarter.
Several brief seconding speeches were
made for each candidate.
When the roll call was begun 1t was
soon seen that Sherman was the popu-
lar choice of the delegates. When
enough votes had been cast to insure
his nomination Senator Crane OF
Massachusetts moved that 1t be made
unanimous and It was carried with
shout Of approval.
The usual motions OF acknowledg'
ment to the oficers Of the convention
ana TO the city in which It was held
were then passed.
