greatest of all strikes made in the
-Four Mile country in the Orogrande
district, was made a few days ago by
A. C. Carpenter and Wisdom brothers
on a property located about 1000 feet

ledge was cut into at a depth of about
55 feet, and an assay taken across
the face of the ledge for a distance OF
two feet gave a return of $723.45 a

us Stomach CNtn11-h

Some people are thin and ALWAYS "a
main thin, from temperamentaI rea-
sons. Probably in such cases nothing
can be done to Grange this personal
popularity.
But there are a large number of peo-
pie who get thin, or remain thin, who
naturally would be plump and ieshy
but for some digestive arrangement.
Thin people lack in adipose tissue.
Adipose tissue is chiefly composed Of
fat.
Tat is derived from the oily constit-
uents Of food.
The fat-making 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 pancreatio
juice. This Juice is of alkaline reac-
ton, and is rendered inert by the addi-
ton OF acid. A h~yperacidity of the
digestive fluids of the stomach passing

the pancreatic fluid for digestive pur-
poses. Therefore, the fats are not di-
gested or emulsifed, and the system ts
deprived of its due proportion of oily
constituents. Hence, the patient grows
hin.
The beginning of the trouble is a 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 docs
not begin Immediately, acid fermenta-
ton will take place. This creates .
hyperacidity of the stomach juices
which In their turn prevent the pam
creatio digestion of the oils, and the
cancellation results.
A dose of Peruna before each meal
hastens the stomach digestion. By
h%urrying 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 q
sufficient amount of fat-forming foods
and the thinness disappears and plum
ness takes its place.

Deafness Cannot Be cured

Fact, About Firecrackers.

The greater part Of the almost $1,000
600 worth of frecrackers annually eN-
ported by China comes to New York. And
the United States stands next to China
In its use of them.
Thousands of Chinese men, women and
children work at the making Of fire
crackers, for there are no manufactorins
there, the work being lone by hand. They
receive only about S1.4O for making To-
600 frecrackers, laboriug from six in the
morning until eleven at night seven days
a week.
So a Chinese woman or child works
like a slave for two days to earn what
is spent on a few punches Of frecrackers
by the urchin bent on doing justice to the
Glorious Fourth.

DOGS IN BAGDAD.
Why They Do Not Loot the Food
Bazaars of the Town.


Bazaars of the Town.
Bagdad is alive with more or less
hungry dogs. How is it that such
packs of furies do not loot the bazaars
of the town? The explanation is as
simple as it is interesting. The Bag
dad shop fronts are absolutely open.
The goat and mutton carcasses are
hung where every dog that runs can
reach them. But time out of mind
the first glance of dogs eye toward
forbidden dainties has been visited
with the swift descent on him of a
cudgel or Il Ratchet.

strongly, but they would not go up
to it.
After time a Persian muleteer eX.

No sooner did he upset the water and
toss the viands on the ground before
them than the silky cared ones ran in
like Troians and made up in few
moments for a days fasting.
Accustomed to lap from the river,
from irrigational channels and from
sheets of surface water and reared
among people who do not use tables,
they had been taught by many buffet
to keep their noses out of cooking pots
and vessels of every description.
In Bagdad man and beast alike drink
of the great river. which also forms
the arterial common sewer of the city,
the place where clothes are washed
and the "Stvgian wave" into which is
dragged every beast of burden when
1t is not left to lie where it has fallen.

ePAsrURlNe WHEAT.
Little Injury From Stock In Fall end
Winter

Little Injury From Stock In Fall end
IS - Winter.
I The pastnring of wheat is an odd
practice about which opinions of prac-
teal men differ widely. The subject
has been studied during several sea-
sons by the Oklahoma station. In
farmers wheattield a number of plats
were laid out. fenced and provided
with gates. On two of the plats the
gates were closed and locked. and Cd
the others they We're left open.
Horses and cattle were turned into
the field in which these plats were sit
uated on Oct. "a. at which time the
wheat furnished considerable feed.
Up to about the middle of January the
pasturing was very fair About this
time the weather turned cold and snow
fell. and during the greater part of
February the weather was very cold
aud the ground covered with, snow al
err part of these two months little
wheat pasturing was available, and
the amount given the field for the sea-
son was lighter than usual The lat.
ter part of February the weather mod
Grated and the SNOW went off. and by
March | the WHEAT was making a nire
start To grow. On this date, March |.
the gates on the fall and winter DIS
tured patS were closed and no stock
allowed on the platS again. AT this
time the ground was Il little soft on
top. but not in condition to allow the
stock to damage the wheat mate
rally by tramping. and there was
some difference in the appearance Of
the pastured and the not pastured
plats. the former being covered With
considerably more growth. Heavy
rains fell March II and showers on the
18th. On April Is but little difference
could be seen in the growth on the
fall and winter pastured plats and
the not pastured plats and the
wheat in the field. In all these cases
the growth was very good. 1t is well
to bear in mind here that the pasturine
given the field was lighter than usual
and at no time was the wheat damaged
by tramping. and. aside from the rust
that attacked the wheat, the conditions
for growth were very favorable
throughout the season. From the
three years. trials the indications are
that where wheat is judiciously pas
tured in the fall and winter and the
stock removed in the spring by March
1 the yield of grain will be little if
any reduced.
