SENTENCES BOYS
TO GO TO CHURCH

PITsBURG. Nov. 1.-THE sentence Of
the Court is that you three boys attend
church eevry Sunday, that you get work
and keep It and that you report 10 me
on the second Saturday Of March, bring
ing a report from your pastors" said
Judge Josiah Cohen in the Criminal
Court.
This remarkable sentence disposed OF
the case OF three young men-John Rus
sell, Charles SkeleslSy and James Jen-
kins. whose ages range from is to 20
years. They pleaded guilty 20 having
broken into a store in swissvale.
After hearing testimony Judge Cohen
said that he was convinced that the
defendants were not habitually bad. but
that a little more church training would
probably be Of some benefit; at least fl
would prove more corrective than a
term IN a reformatory.
He cautioned the boys AGAINST regard
ing the sentence as a joke and promised
that n they could not show a good re-
mort Of their conduct he would send
them TO prison.

Intestinal Indigestion
A Form Of Dyspepsia Usually Resulting
From the Inability to Digest
Starchv- Foods.

There are a great many persons who
are victims OF what is known as in
testinal indigestion, n disease which IL
due 10 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-
stipation or a persistent diarrhoea
This inability TO digest starch Is
called "amylaceous dyspepsia" a dis
ease which Is much I'm 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

supposed. Il can be readily seen how

Harvard Doctors Combat the

monia Drs. Floyd and Lucas made an
extract OF those lighting white blood

recovered and only five died. This
gives a mortalit yof 1872 per cent. fol

Il is asserted that, although the whit
corpuscle extract thus far has beei
lapplied only 20 pneumonia cases. ther
is no apparent reason why its us
should not be extended to practicall
