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 as in
testinal Indigestion, a disease which is
due to the fact that the starchy foods
are either partially digested or not dl-
gested at all. and the result of this
trouble may be either an obstinate
constipation or persistent diarrhoea.
This inability to digest starch Is
called "amylaceous dyspepsia" a dis
ease which is much in evidence. Amer
leans are notoriously poor digesters of
starch, 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, it can be readily seen how
intestinal indigestion will usually pro-
duce diarrhoea.
In the small intestine the pancreatic
juice acts upon the starches and or
dinarily, in a state of health, possesses
the power of converting them into
grape sugar and deXtrine. Starch
must be so transformed before 1t can
be of use to the animal being. Re
naming as unchanged starch it either
passes through the alimentary canal
and proves a useless burden to the
system because it resists absorption,
or it causes intestinal indigestion, the
food products becoming acrid through
putrefaction. which often sets up a
catarrhal Inflammation of the intes-
tine, resulting in diarrhoea.
In a complaint Of this character
many persons use paregoric, Squibb's,
bismuth and tannin to relieve the di-
arrhoea. all of these remedies being
powerfully astringent. and they stop
the trouble suddenly, locking up the
morbid sccretions. throwing the toxic
intestinal poison back on the system
and often causing death through auto
intoXicatiOn.
STUART'S DYSPEPSIA TABLETS
contain among other powerful diges-
tives a substance called DIASTASE,
which thoroughly digests every par
ticle of starchy foods in the small in
testine and prevents the possibility Of
intestinal Indigestion, no matter how
excessive may be the amount of food
eaten.
These tablets also contain CALCI-
I'M CARBONATE. which is a mild
though effective sub-astringent, and
which relieves and cures the diar-
rhoea by easy stages. 1t does not act
with such suddenness as would cause
poisoning of the system, but on the
contrary, by it's antiseptic properties,
all toxins, intestinal germs and poi
sons. always present In intestinal in
digestion and diarrhoea, are destroyed.
Not only are the starches digested
by the use of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tab
let's. but through the action of other
ingredients they contain albuminous
foods like meat and eggs are also di-
gested Thus they cure indigestion Of
any kind. Buy a package from your

plant Against Fellow Workman,
Charging Him with Battery

Deputy District Attorney Arthur
Veitch yesterday issued a complaint
charging Bert Banneman with battery
on the person of H. L. Hughes, who
was treated at the receiving hospita!
for a laceration of the scalp.
According to the story of Hughes,
the accused and the complaining wit
ness are employed on the new federal
building, now in course of erection. Sew
eral days ago, it seems. Banneman
complained that other workmen were
using his hammers. Later he missed
one of his tools and accused Hughes
Of having 1t. This was denied by the
latter, and as a result of the dispute
Hughes, it is asserted, was pushed
from narrow ledge to the ground
eight feet below and then struck on
:he head with three-pound hammer
which he declares was thrown by
Banneman.

RELIEVING THE
DISTRESSED ONES
Associated Charities Work for
Past Two MonthS-Some
ImpostorS Found.

The work Of the Associated Charities
for the past two months is summarized
by Mrs A. {. Jordan, the manager, as
follows:
There have been twentv-nine new ap-
pGcatiOns for relief. twenty-five of
which were in October. Six of these
were single men-fve white men. more
or less sincere in their requests for
employment, but apparently more in
terested as to meal tickets and cloth
ing, and one Hawaiian, who was beg
ging on the streets, although able to
work, and admitting the ability to earn
$3.50 day.
There were ffty-seven recurrent
cases, the majority Of whom are week
" benefeiaries. Twenty families were
supplied daily with milk. -Four persons
were sent to the hospital on S. F. S.
beds.
Eleven persons were directed to EN-.
ployment, some proving satisfactory to
their employers, others the reverse, and
from several no report was received.
Mr.. lsenherg gave employment, on his
Wa1alae ranch, to nineteen ear-old
Porto Rican boy, who looked rather
promising. just one day he trod the
path of industry, then skipped.
Transportation was secured for three
persons-to Kauai, to Korea and to the
Coast
Expenses were paid for three chill
dren at Kawaiahao Seminary. A stove
was procured for one family, and other
assistance given to keep the blind
father from begging from house to
house, as he had been doing for months,
occasionally going to Kauai to reap
the harvest there. The public is eau
toned against giving to this man, as
relief is given from this office.
clone Observer wrote in last Sun
days paper of a Porto Rican family
in Kakaako, in great straits The fam
lily referred to is Portuguese, and has
been receiving help for a year and
half from the Associated Charities and
the Portuguese Benevolent Society, as
well as, more recently, from the Kaka-
ako Mission. The head Of the family,
who left on the last Alameda, has
never provided we'll for his wife and
children, on account of his drinking
habits and general shiftlessness. The
mother, being quite inefficient as far
as any earning capacity is concerned,
and having the care of several young
children, the entire charge of the fam
lily will now come upon the community,
until the man sends for them, as he
has promised.
In the two months, there have been
353 calls at the office, and the manager
has made forty-one visits.
The boys Of the West Virginia gave
the Associated Charities 800 of the
proceeds of their minstrel show, which
will be great help in the matter of
relief, as will Mr.. Irwin s generous
donation of $1,000.
The sum of $693.45 has been expend-
ed for relief.
The following persons have kindly
donated clothing, for which the man
ager returns thanks: Mrs. Peterson,
Mrs. Walbridge, Mrs. Dillingham;, Miss
Schaefer, Mrs. Wolfe, Mrs. A c. Wall,
Mrs. F. Anterior, Mrs. Tenney Peck,
Mrs H. Mist, Mrs. A L. Castle Rob
ert Mist and Ralph s. Hosmer.

Legislators Not Low.

Gentlemen, cannot believe that any
of you are so low as to bear any such
murderous intent against an innocent
life, the only man. who holds a SYS-
TEMATIC TREATMENT which is un-
disputable, the ONLY CURATIVE
TREATMENT for those UNFORT
INNATE PEOPLE OF OURS at MOLO-
KAI. He was not to blame for the
WRECK of the former LAW, for the
LEPERS. He gave his evidence as to
his own Independent knowledge of the
Disease and that is what he was asked
to do under OATH He could not do
otherwise. He could not tamper his
honesty, or his dignity of the College
he is a MEMBER of, for the sakes of
these prejudiced physicians who have
mislead the COMMUNITY for years,
for the sake of the Almighty dollar.
DR.. Atcherley has this treatment for
the lepers, and is only too willing to let
the world have it free of charge as soon
as he has fully demonstrated the
CURE of his PATIENTS. " He dare
not give it now, for it can be readily
seen by the strong attack against him
for this treatment, that he would never
be given the CREDIT, should those in
power get the knowledge of the
TREATMENT. doctors Wayson and
Brinkerhoff)
humbly beg that Gentlemen, you
will take up my pleadings for this in
vestigation at once, and cause the
production of the body of DR.. AtcherIev
before you, with as little delay as pos
sible, and therefore save his life from
being destroyed by his enemies in the
attack.
