The stomach, like all the other or
gans of the body, is subject not only
to various forms of organic trouble
but also to many kinds of functional
disorder, or neuroses.
In these nervous disturbances of the
stomach, pain may be just as severe
and the list of symptoms just as long
and as trying as in true organic dis
ease, and 1t is often impossible to con-
vince the victim that he is not suffer
ing from some terrible local disorder
calling for immediate operation.
The stomach Is usually a somewhat
abused organ. 1t works hard, gen.
orally overtime, and often at tasks
extremely distasteful to it, Small
wonder, then, that it sometimes goes
on strike.
When 1t decides to do this, the
weapons 1t controls with which to boy
colt and intimidate the rest of the
system are most efficient. In times of
normal health we are no more con-
scious of the tremendous commotion
and toll going On in the stomach than
the passengers on sunny deck are
conscious of the trials of the engine
room below them; but when the
stomach has stood all 1t is going to
for the present, it telephones the
brain to that effect, with the imme-
date result that the whole conscious
ness is flooded with the misery re-
sulting from its rebellion.
The visible signs of this rebellion
are myriad. Among the most usual
of them may be mentioned nausea
and vomiting, eructations that are
sometimes so acid that the very
throat is scalded, disagreeable sensa-
tions after eating, that range from
discomfort to agony; and naturally in
time a general rundown condition"
of the system.
When it can be proved that this
state of affairs is traceable to abuse
Of the stomach, the treatment be-
comes a comparatively simple matter;
but in many cases of so-called merry
Gus dyspepsia" the trouble will be
found to be fault of the nervous sys-
TEN, the stomach itself showing no
sign of disease, but simply suffering
from faulty nervous control, just as
any other organ of the body may.
This diagnosis, however, will be of
little comfort to the patient so long
as his stomach is made the vicarious
culprit for the guilty nervous system.
When the troubles arise from causes
that can be easily controlled, such as
improper food, hasty eating. irregular
meals, insufficient mastication, the
cure lies largely in the hands of the
patient himself.
The small boy who heard his father
pronounce a eulogy on a statesman,
said, Father says Mr. Blank has in
telligence, tact and honesty, and also
abdominal courage" This is a form
of valor far too prevalent, and is the
kind that should be tempered with
discretion.

B. & o. MACHINISTS STRIKE.
Eight Hundred and Fifty Men Object to
Piece Work in Shops

BALTIMORE, Md, June "a gen
eral strike of machinists in all the shops
of the Baltimore u Ohio railroad has
been ordered, taking effect at 2 p. NJ,
today.
This action, it was stated at the ma
chinists' headquarters, is the result of
the introduction of the piece work sys-
TEN. About $50 men employed in shops
at some thirteen or fourteen points along
the road are affected.
For the present, the strike is not ex-
pected TO spread to the blacksmiths and
boilermakers. 1t is understood these
crafts Will await a conference with the
company's officials, June IA, for the pur-
pose of considering a new joint schedule
covering working rules for all Organiza-
tons which are members of the BaIti-
more 4 Ohio department of the Amer
lean Federation of Labor.
The chief points in the new schedules
are provisions for a 9-hOur day and an
hourly rate of wage which virtually
means abolition of piece work.

AccOmm odatin~.

Some years ago. says a Boston law
yer, "a man in Nantucket was tried
for a petty offense and sentenced to
four months in Jail. A few days after
the trial the judge who had imposed
sentence, in company with the sheriff,
was on his way to the Boston boat,
when they passed a man busily en-
gagged in saving wood.
THE man stopped his work, touch
ed his hat politely and said, Good
morning, your honor
THE judge, after a careful survey
of the mans face, asked:
Isn't that the man 1 sentenced to
Jail few days ago."
Yes replied the sheriff, with some
hesitation, that's the man. The fact
is, judge, we-er-we don't happen to
have anybody else in Jail Just now.
so we thought it would be a sort of
useless expense to hire some one to
keep the Jail four months just for this
enc man. So I gave him the Jail kew
and told him it would be all right if
he'd sleep there O. nights "-Harper's
