eFaI Assembly

In the course Of an article in the Phila-
delphia Ledger on the Personnel Of the
Delaware Legislature" James 5. Cham
bers. Jr.. a well-known writer and an OBJ
server of Delaware politics, says in part;
Delaware legislators are paid s. per day
for their services and the session Of the
Legislature is limited to 50 days. Two
years ago bill was passed increasing the
pay TO $40 per day. To make the bill a
law it is necessary TO pass two Legis-
latures. But no member in the present
body has had the temerity TO call up the
ball. The wave of temperance in the
state has resulted in keeping all liquor
dealers out of the Legislature. The near

Lavender addressed a large and enthus- iastic crowd of voters in opposition to the proposed constitutional amendment. Capt. J. P. Harris one of the best citizens of Bibb county, presided at the meeting. About 100 men and several ladies were present and the sentiment was almost unanimous against the proposed amend ment. w. T.

SENTIMENT IN
 NORTH ALABAMA

Decatur, October 14.-(Special.) )-Today Buffalo Birs show was in the city and many people from Morgan, Lawrence, Madison, Limestone and Cullman coun- ties were here, and from what these men say 1t would seem that Morgan Lime stone, Cullman and Madison counties will give heavy majorities against the adop ton of the amendment, but nearly all agree that Lawrence county will give a. majority for the amendment
 o. F. Wright, of near Moulton, Law renee county, said this morning: .1n my opinion Lawrence county will go for the amendment, but as for me I am opposed to it. I never was drunk in my life, and do not favor saloons, and never have, but I am opposed to the amendment be- cause if it should be adopted it would but be a step towards the enactment of ex post facto laws, and such would be the very death of our liberty and our democratic form of government. MT. Wright is one of the leading citizens of the nelghborhood in which he lives. He extensively, and keeps up with the times.
 In this end of the state there is much opposition to the adoption of the prohibi- tion amendment on the grounds that IS Is a political measure of Governor Conner, and many people here say they have had enough of Comerism In Alabama.

Painful Dyspepsia
A Form of Indigestion Caused by Gas. tric Irritation from Undgested
 Food in the Stomach,

No kind of dyspepsia is better marked than that known as painful Indigestion ,, and it Is also a very common affection Pain, generally of a dull character. is felt after meals. and along with the pain. soreness at the pit of the stom- ach often exists, and In some cases the soreness is permanent. The spot in the middle line of the body, immediately be low the breast-bone
 It often extends upward under the bone which consequently feels sore on pressure or the tenderness Is felt toward either side. This tenderness Is commonly asso- ciated with an unpleasant feeling of heat ia burning sensaton''-as 1t Is termed by some persons There is also "gnaw. ing and dragging" 8s well as various other anomalous sensations complained of after taking food. and generally within an hour after eating.
 As might be supposed the intensity of the symptom is proportionate to the uuan- tity and quality of the meal. When the stomach is empty. a sensation of craving or emptiness gives most trouble This often causes a false appetite. which, by inducing the person to eat heartily ag- gravates the sufferings. Thirst generally causes much annoyance: heartburn; wa ter-brash, acdity, nausea and headache are not infrequent attendants. The tongue Is usually coated and from mere inspection of this organ the condition of the stomach can often be correctly told
 It Is a common error with persons who suffer from stomach pain caused by in- digestion and gastric irritation, to use such drugs as chlorodyne. Hoffman's Ano dyne, and other pain killers" for it's re- lief Such treatment Is a great mistake While these drugs afford temporary re. lief to the dyspeptic pain. they have no effect whatever In removing the cause.

All of the irritation of the stomach-lining and stomach-nerves as the result of the un- digested food lying in that organ and undergoing fermentation and decompo- sition, is quickly done away with
