Intestinal Indigestion
A Form of Dyspepsia Usually Result
ing From the Inability to Digest
Starchy Foods

There are a great many persons who
are victims of what is known IS in
testinal Indigestion. a disease which is
due TO the fact that the starchy foods
are either partially digested or not di-
gested at all. and the result of this
trouble may be either an obstinate con-
stilpatlon or persistent diarrhoea
This Inability to digest starch fs
called 'amylaceous dyspepsia" a dis
ease which is much in evidence Ameri-
cans are notoriously poor digesters of
stareh, and as starchy foods. such as
potatoes, rice. bread, etc, are digested
entirely in the small intestine, and not
IN the stomach proper, as is generally
supposed. II can be readily seen how
Intestinal indigestion will usually pro-
duce diarrhoea.
In the small intestine the pancreatic
Juice acts upon the starches and ordi-
narlly, in q state of health, possesses
the power of converting them into
grape sugar and dextrine. Starch must
be so transformed before it can be OF

as unchanged starch. it either passes
through the alimentary canal, and
proves useless burden to the system,
because il resists absorption. or 1t

The Franklin new air-cooling system
is more efficient and reliable than any
water-cooling system.

The Franklin air-cooled engine is the most
efficient and economical of all automobile en-
gines. The Franklin has held the worlds
economy record for years, and in July last
1910 Franklin at Buffalo n. Y, set a new
mark, bettering Our previous worlds record by
81 per cent In this contest the Franklin out
did the nearest of its twenty competitors by 80
per cent.
The Franklin is economical and reliable all
the way through. 1t does not strain and rack
itself: there is not the deterioration and the
rattle and noise which develop in other auto
mobiles.
AS to the new cooling systenI-its success is

The Franklin air-cooling system for 1910 is
the sensation of the year. 1t marks an import
ant era in automobile history.
1t removes every objection, real or fancied,
that ever existed against air cooling, and places
air cooling in the unchallenged lead.
Our air-cooing system isN simple and posi-
tive The engine cylinders have vertical
f1anges Around each cylinder close to the
fanges is sheet metal air jacket open at the
top These jackets with their continuous base
and the engine boot form air tight compart-
ment At the rear of this compartment is the
suction-fan engine hy-wheel This fy-wheel
fan draws the air in large volume through the
air Jacket down around each cylinder. The air
that passes one cylinder does not pass any
other cylinder. Each cylinder is individually
cooled, and each has an equal and large supply
of fresh air The front fan formerly used is
dispensed with.
Compare our air-cooling system and the
water-cooling system with its many mechanl-
cal elements and complications. Our system
cannot fail to work There is nothing to get
out of order On the other hand the water
system with its fan, pump, radiator, soldering,
Joints and piping is subject to disablement,
leakage and freezing. And see the saving IN
