S. O. s.

The Continental code is more largely
used by ships. possibly because there arc
more foreign bottoms than American,
The Continental is much slower ihln the
Morse. and some American telegraph op-
orators say that the foreigners are not
so apt ut learning the Morse as Amcri-
cans are at learning the Continental,
20 that all telegraph operators who work
the wireless at sea must be equipped with
the Continental, and those who UNDER
stand the Morse also have Just that much
tho better of 1t.
The Continental operators assert that
their code is the more accurate because
there are no space letters, such as C. l., o..
Space letters 10 some operators. especial
ly noviccs, are confusing. and sometimes
amusing and ludicrous errors occur The

There Is any number of other words sub

the use of the Continental, which has its
dots and dashes together without inter-

that respond with sufficient promptness
to prevent the fatal issue (Where ply

In cases where patients have from

Constipation
and Appendicitis
The Latter Usually Caused BY The
Former, Which, In Turn, Has It's
Origin In Intestinal Indigestion.

Chronic constipation is "A disease
which is about as prevalent as dyspep-
sla and Indigestion. Nearly every one
suffers from it occasionally, but there
are millions Of people who endure it
habliuallv. and who are accustomed 10
resort to the use Of laXatives aud ca
thartIcs daily.
Many people seem TO have dcvcl-
opcd perfect mania for taking pills.
and instead OF trying To ascertain the
latent cause of the disease, and rcmov-
ing 1t by appropriate treatment, they
are content TO continue the reckless
nsc of laxltlyes, apcricnts, drastic ca
shaTtlcs and violent purgatives. until
finally inflammation Of the bowels oc-
ours, which reaches the appendix. and
The result is appendicitis.
In investigating aud tracing the
causativc factors of constipation and its
frequent sequel, appendicitis, il has been
noted Ivy physicians that the majority
of cases were preceded and accompanied
by long standing CASTRO intestinal in.
digestion.
The idea that appendicitis is brought
on By foreign bodies. such as seeds, etc,
becoming lodged in the appendix is an
exploded theory. 1t is now definitely
known that constipation is the most pro
life cause Of this dread disease, while
the constipation itself is previously in.
laceous dyspepsIa-thc inability TO di-
gest starches--so the relation between
cause and effect is readily seen and
appreciated
The absurdity of attempting 10 cure
constipation by the use of physic should
bc apparent TO every one, Laxative
drugs and powerful purgatives will
never cure disease Of this sort. and
those who make frequent or regular use
OF them Will, sooner or later, set up an
Intiammatory condition Of the intestinal
system.
a person with flrst-cIass digestion
Will never be annoyed with chronic con-
stipatlon. and when this trouble does
exist, instead of slugging the system
with pills, liquid laxafives, candy ca.
