It's Stomach CntN,7h

Some people are thin and always re-
main thin, from temperamental rca-
sens. 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 flcshy
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-making foods are called by
the Psychologist, hydrocarbons. This
class of foods are not digested in the
stomach at all. They are digestcd 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 pancrcatic
Juice. This juice is of alkaline reac-
ton, and is rendered inert by the addl-
ton of acid. a hyperacidity OF the
digestive fluids of the stomach passing
down into tho duodenum, destroys
the pancreatic fluid for digestive pur-
poses. Therefore, the fats are not di-
gested or emulsifled, and the system IL
deprived of its due proportion of oily
constituents. Hence, the patient grows
thin.
The beginning of the trouble ia ca
tarrhal condition of the stomach which
causes hyperacidity of the gastric
juices. This hyperacidiiy is caused by
fermentation of food in the stomach.
When the food Is taken into the stom-
ach, II 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 PAN
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 pancrcatic juice Is thus
preserved in its normal state. II then
only remains for the patient 10 eat n
sufficient amount of fat-forming foods,
and the thinness disappears and plump
ness takes its place.

DIOCESE AGAINST SALE OF LIQUORS.

The 92nd annual convention of
the Diocese of North Carolina low
meeting in Raleigh declared for
prohibition. The Rev. E A Os.
borne, of this city, introduced the
following resolution which was
carried.
'Whereas o.. The State of North
Carolina is about to decide great
moral issue by au appeal to the
popular voice of the citizens, and
believing that the Christian forces
of the Commonwe ath should
unite i'll eradlcating all evil and
immoral influences which are
wrecking the lives and homes of
cur people.

"That this, convention Is op-
posed to the manufacture and

POSITION OF EP|SCOPAL|ANS ON LIQUOR.
Bishop Robert Strange Comes Out Strongly for State Prob
ton After Weeks of Thought and Prayer,

characterized it, should be turned
to the education of little children.
Money should not be a considera-
tlon whore a great moral issue is
involved. That the law was
sumptuary, he answered, by de-
hung sumptuary laws as those
that prescribed the cut of ones
garments and what he should eat
and not laws that prevented the
federation of a condition that
workedan injury to others. Taking
up personal liberty, ne said that
the only human species that en-
joyed libsrty was the savage who
roamed the Jungle; that wherever
civilization begun, there COM
menced an abridgement of ones
liberty when it resulted in the
hurt of others, Answering the
question that prohibition doesn't
prohibit and declaring this the
one point with which he con-
tended longest in making up his
mind Oh the question, he said
that while prohibition doesn't
prohibit, it decreases and removes
the temptation from the young
who have not contracted the habit.
There would be blind tigers, he
admitted, but the evil would be
reduced; especially was this true
of the negroes, "child race" as he
described them. The law prevent
ed the sale of liquor to a minor;
it should as we'll prevent the sale
to this child race, but this being
impossible, prohibition offered
the next best thing.
The Bishop also referred to the
baneful influence of the saloon in
politics and expressed the belief
that the closing of the saloon
would result in higher citizen
ship in that men would take an
interest ii the affairs of govern
ment and strive to see that the
law was enforced, The argument
that prohibition wouldn't
prohibit was a confession of weak
ness on part of men who had re-
sisted bravely the encroachment

THE CASE IN A NUTSHELL.

You can't have general whiskey
selling without making drunkards.
You will admit that, won't you?
If a man votes, May Goth, "For
the Manufacture and Sale of In
toxicating Liquors. therefore he
votes to make drunkards-that is
the effect and meaning and you
can't help it. You will admit
that, won't you? Well then
If you vote to make drunkards
some home mnst furnish boys to
be these drunkards. And the
point is
Are you willing for that home
to be yours?
If you are, then you can COLI
sistently vote against prohibition;
if not, we do not see how you can.
Certain 1T is that when King
Alcohol comes for new victims
it wonld be a fairer thing and
more natural thing for him to
turn to homes where votes we're
cast to welcome him to the State;
and most of his victims this next
generation will come from such
homes.
A vote to make drunkards-and
then not to be able to add pro.
vision or amendment saying,
provided, however. that this
curse shall not fall on my own
SOM
Isn't it a serious responsibility?
We think it is, and we want you
to think about 1t seriously.-Pro-
gressive Farmer.

Salisbury, N. 9.

SALISBURY, N. q.
Dear Sir:
Yesterday I received two COM
munications from the League. In
reply to No. 1, let me say I am
not in charge of any congregation.
1t was merely incidental that l
introduced Mr.. Price at speak
ing at a school-house near my
home, when | took occasion to re-
quest friends and neighbors to
vote for prohibition next month.
I have taken little active part in
the present temperance work sim
ply because [ have had no occasion
to do SO in my present retired life.
Several weeks ago I heartily com
mended my pastor for preaching
a sermon i'll which he urged people
to vote for the prohibition meas
ure. All during my active minis
try I took a bold positive stand
for temperance, aud upon occa-
siou, for prohibition. Being now
in private life, and not being call
ed upon for special advocacy Of
the cause, 1 have not felt it a
duty to put myself forward in the
work. But you can rest assured
that the cause has my hearty
sympathy and also such support
as I am in position to give.
In reply to your communication
No. 2. I want to say: First, Il
your request for a letter for publ
cation is based on a suppositior
that I am actively engaged as 6
pastor, this you see is mistake
Second, If you desire such letters
from me any way please let mt
know and you shall have it.
You are at liberty to use thi
letter any way you deem fit.
am sorry a false report has beer
in circulation as to my stand il
the matter. I knew nothing O
such report till you informed me
1 cannot imagine how it go
started. Yours sincerely,
B. S. BROWN.
