A LiTToRAL DEFENSE CORPS.

Recent developments suggest the
thought that the time may have ar
rived for the creation of Iittoral de-
Tense corps as a distinct branch OF
the military establishment. The
strength OF the movement to exclude
the marines from naval vessels and
confine their functions to the guarding
OF navy yards and bases seems to
have became apparent even to che
marines themselves. says the New
York Tribune. The Tribunes Wash
ington bureau reports that the COM
missioned personnel Of the marine
corps seriously contemplates asking
congress to transfer the entire corps
to the army. with the hope Of finding
there more congenial surroundings.

Is Sure
Stomach Guide
. Barometer Which Never Fails,
Though Seldom Believed.

Taste is tho direct guide to the
stomach: and the taste buds are con-
nected by the nerves with the stom-
ach itself, so hat they represent its
health or disorder. If the stomach or
it's juices are out of tone. the blood Is
fermented by q change in the alkaline
or acid condition, and these reach the
mouth both directly and indirectly.
1.-THE taste buds are in the tongue.
and are mounted by hairlilte projec-
tons called papillae; they cover The
surface of the tongue.
when you taste these buds rise up
and absorb the liquid: inform the
nerves; the nerves tell the stomach. and
the food is acceptable or not, just as
the stomach feels"
The above remarks on taste comes
from an eminent authority n SIM
ply explains why when one smells cook
ing or sees food one thinks he can
ear. but when he tastes he learns the
stomach is out of business.
To the person who cannot taste
alright, who relishes no food and sim
ply forces himself to eat, Stuart's Dys-
pepsia. Tablets hold the secret of en-
joyable eating, perfect digestion and
renewed general health.
Most men wait until their stomachs
\ ~ completely sickened before they
think seriously of assisting nature.
When your taste for food is lost it
is a certain sign the stomach needs
attention. Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets
cure such stomachs. They restore
Sweetness Of breath, ms gastric
juices, enrich the blood and give the
stomach the strength and rest neces-
sssy to general duty.

FISHING BY TELEPHONE.

Consul Louis Goldschmidt, Of Nantes.
France, makes the report that a use for
the telephone in fishing has just been
invented in Norway. A microphone.
the role of which consists in simplifying
submarine sounds. is shut up in a thin.
watertight steel box and kept in con-
slant communication by metallic wires
with a telephone receiver installed on
the fishing boat. 1t is stated that with
this apparatus the fisherman is always
informed of the approach of fish. More
over, it is said that each kind of fish
gives in the instrument a particular
sound. Thus the arrival of herring is
signalized by a sort of whistling; tho
Goldfish announces its arrival in the
neighhorhood by Il sort of gr~unting.
