Constipation And
 Appendicitis
The Latter Usually Caused By The Former, Which, In Turn, Has It's
 OrIuin In Intestinal lndiuestion.

Chronic constipation is a disease which is about as prevalent as dyspepsia and indigestion. Nearly every one suffers from 1t occasionally, but there are millions of people who endure 1t habitually. and who are accustomed to resort to the use of laxatives and cathartics daily.
 Many people seemed to have developed perfect mania for taking pills, and in- stead of trying to ascertain the latent cause of the disease, and removing it by appropriate treatment they are content to continue the reckless use of laxatives, aperients, drastic cathartics and violent purgatives, until finally inflammation of the bowels occurs, which reaches the ap- pendix and the result is appendicitis. In Investigating and tracing the causa- tive factors of constipation and it's ire quent sequel, appendicitis, it has been noted by physicians that the majority of cases were preceded and accompanied by a long-standing gastro-intestinal indiges- ton.
 The idea that appendicitis Is brought on by foreign bodies such as seeds, etc, be- coming lodged in the appendix, is an ex- ploded theory. It is now definitely known that constipation is the most prolific cause of this dread disease, while the constipa- tion itself is previously induced by in- testinal indigestion, or amylaceous dys- pepsia-the inability to digest starches- so the relation between cause and effect is readily seen and appreciated.
 The absurdity of attempting to cure con stipation by the use of physic should be 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 inhamma- tory condition of the intestinal system.
 person with first-class digestion will never be annoyed with chronic constipa- ton, and when this trouble does exist. instead of slugging the system with pills. liouid laxatives. candy cathartics etc use A remedy which will cure the eastro- intestinal indigestion, and you will find that the constipation no longer bothers you. and with it's removal. the risk of de- veloping appendicitis will be reduced to the minimum.
 sTITARTS DYSPEPSIA TABLETS have been the means of curing numerous cases of constipation, by first curing the in testjnal indigestion. They digest every kind of food, a single grain being capable of digesting 5000 grains of alimentum and in addition to pepsin and other powerful digestives. they also contain diastase. which converts starch into sugar. and readily cures amylaceous dyspepsia and intestinal indigestion.
 If you are suffering from dyspepsia. constipation, and. in fact, indigestion of any kind, don't run the risk of getting appendicitis but strike at the root of the trouble-the original cause-by using Stu arts Dyspepsia Tablets, which win uufck ly rid you of all functional disorders of the alimentary tract.
 Secure a box of this digestive remedy from your druggist for 5oc and send your name and address to the F, A. Stuart Co, 15o stuart Bldg. Marshall, Miah., A~~> 1<.. n&1uu>

 Mitchell Is Pleaced.
 Judge J. J. Mitchell, chairman or the tax commission, is back from attendance upon the North Alabama presbytery at Anniston. He Is greatly pleased with the way Dr. J. w, Stagg has taken hold or the school for boys of the church, and predicts that he will make it wonderful success. The statement of Dr. Stagg that the school was to raise men, not molly ooddles, is in line with the convictions of the judge, who is not in sympathy with much of the milk and mush talk about games of late years.
 Railroad Men to Meet.
 Stockholders of the South and North Alabama railroad will meet in Montsom- cry November 1T in the office or the company, the purpose being, accordir< to notice, to elect directors for the ensuing year land for the transaction C4H any other business as may properly come be- fore said meeting' The call is signed by J. T. Walker, secretary. Incident to this call 1t will be recalled that. as a result of suits by minority stockholders, the intention of the Louisville and Nash vile to take over this line has been in- definitely deferred.
 Close Railroad Point.
 The Alabama railroad commission VIII hold, according to the present outlook, that the effort to force the Louisville and Nashville road to sell joint rate tickets over its line from Montgomery to Anniston, Oxford and Talladega, IS not in line with justice in this particu- lar case, but it's ruling must not be taken, it is thought, to make precedent Or to indicate that the commission surrenders any of It's rights to enforce joint rates. However, 1t Is thought that the road may be instructed to make the rate or fare the same over It's lines as over the Southern connection att Calera. In other words the ruling would seem to comply with the idea that the Louisville and Nashville ought not to be forced to glvo business to another road that 1t can carry and also that the road ought not to collect more than 1t would cost to make the trip on the two roads.

This was the statement made
today by the Rev. Walter G. Du
Moulin, an Episcopalian rector,
who is being sued by his wife in
San Francisco for a divorce. The
charges made by his wife are that
he was too attentive to other
women in the parishes in which he
was the head of the church and
that he asked her to pose for a
picture of a nature repugnant to
her womanhood.
"Wife Caused All Trouble"
my wife was the cause of all
of the trouble we experienced In
my parishes" said Du Moulin.
"She was always jealous of women
members of the church, whether
married or not, and was continual

of her conduct l was asked to re-

Her charges of my intimacy
with women parishioners are alb

"Since my wife has made such
sensational charges against me,

circumstances such as might cause
her some embarrassment"
Continuing, Du Moulin said:
