CHEAP GRAFT IN
CITY CLEANUP

The crematory department has
uncovered some cheap graft in con-
nection with the cleanup campaign.
Following an investigation which
consumed the entire day, one of the
teamsters who had been employed
was discharged. People are warn
ed not to pay any money to any
teamster who collects rubbish I'M
less they get regular crematory
receipt on crematory form. For
further protection it is best to call
up Main 1886 or Main $40 and leave
word of what rubbish is to be cart
ed away. In this manner the de-
partment can better keep check on
the Transfers.

Special Officer w. w. MINER is
being investigated by Police Chief

stories which have something OF a
scandal flavor. Minner is under the
pay of the wealthy men of Cannon

attending to those duties Minner
has strayed away from the straight

night two regular officers found
him with a woman. Chief Rice will
not give out the details of the case,
but says II reports are found to be
true he will take MINERS star

LONDON, April 22.-Sir Henry
Campbell Bannerman died this
morning at the age of u. The ex-
premier passed away peacefully.
Today pail of gloom is over the
islands. Sir Henry sacrificed his
life to the demands of his country.
Instead of taking care of his ply
steal condition he continued to per
form the strenuous duties of his
office until he was compelled to
take to his bed. His death will
probably be followed by a split in
the liberal party such as occurred
in the democratic party in 1896,
when Bryan was first nominated
The severance of the liberals into
a radical and conservative wing
will mean a return of the conserva-
tives into power. Campbell-Ban

Sir Henry entered parliament in
1868 and three years later became a
member of Gladstone's first admin

quently in every liberal cabinet. In
Gladstone's second administration
he acted as secretary to Ireland,

YOU'RE THIN.
EOen Slight Catarrhal arrangements
Of tie Stomach Produce Acid fe'-
mentatioN Of ill.,. Food.
IT. Stomach C0t0S7,h

Some people are thin and always re-
main thin, from temperanental rea-
sons. Probably in such cases nothing
can be done to change this personal
popularity.
But there are large number OF peo-
pie who get thin, or remain thin, who
naturally would be plump and fieshy
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-
ueuts of food.
The fat-malxing foods are called by
the psychologist, hydrocarbons. This
class of foods are not digested in the
stomach at all. They are digested in
the duodenum, the division of the ALI
mentary canal just below the stomach.
The digestion of fat is mainly, if not
wholly, the work Of the pancreatic
Juice. This Juice is of alkaline reac-
ton, and is rendered inert by the addi-
ton 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 di-
pested or enulsifed, and the system is
deprived of it's due proportion of oily
constituents. Hence, the patient grows
hin.
The beginning of the trouble is 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 q
hyperacidity of the stomach juices
which in their turn prevent the pam
creatic 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
S only remains for the patient TO eat a
S sufficient amount of fat-forming foods
= and the thinness disappears and plum
ness takes its place.
