POISON IN STOMACH Dangerous Gases Arising From Un-
 disested Food. Endangers Lives.
 Digestit Destroys Stomach Gases.


 Thousands of people all over this broad land are being slowly poisoned. They eat rich foods, drink strong drinks, keep late hours. Food lies undigested In their stcmachs, causing poisonous gases to arise from masses of fermenting food. These gases slowly poison the blood, deaden the nerves, weaken the heart. clog the brain until the whole system is affected.
 Digestit relieves the stomach almost instantly by digesting all the food that the overburdened stomach cannot handle alone. 1t not only digests this food, de- stroys all poisonous stomach gases, but creates healthy appetite-makes the stomach hungry for more. Digestit is a natural remedy. It makes the stomach digest it's food in a natural way and as- simulate the strength of this food to the famished body.
 Digestit cost 50c a package at drug gists. or by mall prepaid from w. l.. Brown Company. Jackson. Miss.

WILL BASEBALL SPIKES CO.?
Ban johnson Says Question VIII Be
Seriously Discussed at American
League Meeting.

The American league at its annual
meeting in December will take up Sc
riously the matter of abolishing spikes
from the pharaphernalia of the dia-
mond
President Johnson made that state
ment in discussing the probable prob
lens which will be tackled by the
league magnates this winter. He said
it was hoped a suitable substitute for
the spike now in use on the shoes OF
players would be discovered and
agreed upon. for the purpose of elm
mating at least a portion of the acci-
dents which have marred the sport
during the last season.
Expert manufacturers of sporting
goods and inventors have been busy
for several years endeavoring to solve
the problem of the Objectionable
spike, but without success, as the de-
mand has not been considered press
ing These efforts have been doubled
as a result of several serious acci'
dents which occurred this year, and
the belief has become fixed that those
accidents could not be avoided in any
way except by the abolition OF the
spike.

Plan Moving Platform Under Broadway

Seaman tells the public service
commission that the continuous belt
conyeyor has been found to be the
cheapest aud speediest mechanical
contrivance in factories and ware
houses. and he believes the same
principle can be applied to rapid
transit The idea is to have a con-
tinuous moving platform, equipped
with seats. moving at IL miles an
hour The passenger will first step
on a platform going three miles an
hour. then to an adjoining one going
six miles an hour. then to the next
one going nine miles an hour. and,
lastly. to the endless moving plat
form.
The local subway trains, Seaman
says, never average more than 10
miles an hour and do not go more
than u miles an hour in rush hours
and their limit is 22.500 passen-
gers an hour The expresses, he
says. can carry only $4,000 an hour.
Surface cars, he says. make only
three miles an hour in rush hours,
and never more than eight miles an
hour. As against this, he says, the
continuous moving platform will
carry 73500 passengers an hour all
