1t would scarcely be consistent

represented by Luther Rosser, OF
Atlanta. and Messrs. Haygood &
Cults, of Fitzgerald. The case was
a hard fought one and consumed
two days in trying. That the
plaintiffs attorneys worked hard
goes without saying and the verdict
they secured of $4,000 damages
for their clients, emphasizes their
ability.
Especially able was that part of
the case handled by Mr.. Reid. He

Once inzawhile we strike statement
that goes to the center of things like q

In circular No. II of the Indiana ex:
pertinent station the writer says:
Whenever great progress has been
made in milk production the pure bred
dairy sire has been employed to bring
it about. In 20 herds studied by the
writer there was an average Of 2,O96
pounds of milk and sc pounds of but.
ter fat per COW, per year, in favor Of
grading up with aspure-bred a. dairy sire.
This amounts, in herd of 40 cows, to
$3.50 greater annual returns than from
scrubs
How true, everlastingly true, those
words are. 81
# Who ever heard of a community Of
farmers that made progress in dairy.
Ing where they used the scrub bull or
even the dual purpose bull?
Everything is at a standstill In such
communities. III
Who ever heard of farmer becom

made Increasing profit every year, who

The thing has been worked out so
1lsly many times and In so many hundred

still there are farmers who really

The French. said an ethnologist,

YOU'RE TOO THIN,
Even Slight Catarrhal Derangemenh
Of tile Stomach Produce Acid Fer
mentaffon Of tie Food.
It's Stomach Cutu7yA

Some people are thin and always re-
main thin, from temperamental rea-
sons. Probably in such cases nothing
can be done to C fange this personal
popularity.
But there are a large number of peo-
pie who get thin, or remain thin, who
naturally would be plump and feshy
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 bv
the Psychologist, Hydrocarbons. This
class Of foods are not digested in tho
stomach at all. They are digested in
the duodenum, the division Of the ali
Eentary 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-
gested or emulsified, and the system is
deprived of its due proportion of oily
constituents. Hence, the patient grows
thin.
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 does
not begin Immediately, acid fermenta-
ton will take place. This creates a
h~yperacidity of the stomach juices
which in their turn prevent the pan"
create digestion of the oils, and the
evacuation 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 eata
sufficient amount of fat-forming foods,
and the thinness disappears and plump
ness takes its place.

The LARGEST Clock,

The largest clock in the world has
recently been added to the wondrous
sights of New York, the Giant City.
While this clOck-a real old-fashioned
Seth Thomas, is a faithful timepiece
to the people Of New York, yet it is
located on the factory Of Colgate &
Co. at Jersey City, N. J.. In this it
has the distinction of serving the peo-
pie of two states. The tourist from
across the ocean will find the hour of
his return clearly set before him as he
passes up the North river to his land
ing place. The small office boy of the
downtown section may peep out OF
the windows, across into another
state, to learn when quitting time
comes around.
The dial of this gigantic clock will
be forty feet six inches in diameter,
and will be made Of yellow pine
boards six inches wide, spaced three
inches apart. The minute hand meas
ures 20 feet from the end Of the hub
to the tip, and weighs, with the coun-
ter balance, $40 pounds. The hour
hand is Is feet in length and weighs
500 pounds without the counter bal
anc The numerals on the dial are
five feet high and 80 inches wide.
The speed of the hour hand measures
three feet ten inches in width, while
that of the minute hand is two feet
eleven inches. The point of the min
ute hand travels every minute %
inches, while in a week it covers
three and two-thirds miles.-Bennett
Chapple, in National Magazine.
