There is a process known as meta
boIfsm going on constantly in the
body, and by which the tissues are
built up, and after having served their
purpose in the physical economy, are
torn down and cast off.
So long as the due relation between
waste and supply is maintained, nutrl-
tion and the various functions of the
body are continued. But after middle
life and in old age there comes time
when waste exceeds supply and when
the various elements which constitute
the different fluids, tissues and organs
no longer hold their due proportion.
and the principle of life itself becomes
enfeebIed the body no longer having
power to assimilate new material as il
once did.
As old age creeps on. all the func-
tions gradually fail. especially those
of digestion. absorption and assimila-
tion. and the system being deprived of
it's full quota of nOuriS hment, slowly
wears out. If the nutritive and di-
gestive processes of old people could be
maintained unimpaired. life could be
prolonged almost Indefinitely
There are many old persons in whose
stomachs the gastric FUNSTON is almost
entirely suspended. When this trouble
occurs, the problem is, how to digest
the food and get along without the
natural stomach juices. There is but
one way to overcome the effects of this
condition, and that is TO supply arti-
ficially to the stomach q powerful di-
gestive substance to take the place of

of the advantage of obtaining control

The opposition springs from the price.
which many of the city officials regard
as too high Spring Valley now has a
capacity of 35,0OO0O0 gallons a day.
Its latent possibilities are a matter of
some doubt President Bourn believes
he could eventually develop 125,000,000
gallons day The city's engineers
hold no such opinion. Lake Eleanor
will give $4,000, 900 gallons daily. The
combined source will reach close to
100. 00O.O 900 gallons "a day. When
needed the Hetch Hetchy dam will be
built and 100000 gallons more will
be added to the daily supply. This
would give San Francisco a supply for
many years to come.
Mayor Taylor declined somewhat
firmly to comment on Spring Valley
latest offer. Supervisors Jennings and
Johnston spoke of its Importance. but
were unwilling to go on record beyond
that until they had studied the subject
further.
II regard the offer as of the very
highest Importance" said City Attor-
ney Long. "A good and plentiful water
s1Ipply is the first essential for a city.

but it may be safely assumed that he
is not the first choice of the great ma

necessarily imply any active opposition

rather that the present leaders Of the

more or less thought to the availability

years.

ratify the candidacy of one of its for

than favorable mention among the

The bonds amount to $17,S59,000. There
are 2S0,000 shares of stock of the par
value of $50. "A sale at $35,000,000
