SAND CURE FOR INDIGESTION.
Millionaire Believes He Has Discov'
cred Certain Remedy.

CAMBRIDGE. Mass, September d.
That the ultimate cure for indigestion
has been discovered is the belief of Will
liam A. Graustein, millionaire head of a
milk firm.
Graustein had been victim Of indiges-
ton for years. On the advice Of ply
stefan he procured some common building
sand, sterilized it and took a spoonful of
it three times day. In six weeks, 1t Is
said, a cure was effected. Dozens Of his
friends have tried the same treatment
with what was declared to be favorable
results. Now whenever Graustein feels run
down or has any work in hand requiring
.'sharpened' faculties he reaches into his
desk and takes spoonful of his panacea
from q we'll filled vial.

pleasure to speak for him If l could in
dorse the policy for which he stands;
but he has chosen to make the liquor
issue the paramount issue and makes
his appeal on that question.
In spite of the fact that the last demo-
cratic state convention voted down dec
laration against county option by vote
of 63S to 202. he says that he will veto
county option bill if passed, and in
spite of the fact that the state conven-
ton indorsed the o'clock closing law by
vote of TO to 1913, he announces that
he will sign a bill repeating it If such a
bill is passed.

Applies to All officials.

The order applies as forcefully to d.
rectors Of various state institutions who
serve without pay as it does to those
who receive salaries. The directors are
given absolute charge Of the institutions
to which they are assigned. and the gov
ernor believes that they should attend
the meetings Of the boards and famil-
iarize themselves with the workings. of
the institutions so that they can be man
aged successfully and economically. II
they cannot give the necessary time to
the management Of the institutions. then
the governor believes that they should
resign 30 that others who viii attend to
the duties can be appointed.

Defeats Would Destroy Him.

To enter contest with Taft for the
nomination and be defeated would de-
stroy him utterly.
To appear at the psychological moment
as the champion and the savior of Taft
would crown him hero among heroes.
Col. Roosevelt undoubtedly believes, it
is argued. that a word from him would
still all opposition to Taft's denomination.
That he intends to say that word is the
belief expressed. But he intends to say
1t at the moment it will do Roosevelt
most good. II Col. Roosevelt believes
that whatever tide is now running against
Taft is likely soon to turn. it is declared.
he may be expected to make his pro-
nouncement at an early day, probably at
Saratoga If the setting seems propitious.
If he believes things are going to get
considerably worse for Taft before they
start to mend. it is expected he will de-
lay his declaration until such thine. as
would enable him to take to himself the
fullest measure of credit for the mend
ing.

The declaration of Mr. Bryan. which
was not unexpected. is regarded as mild
IN tone and partly apologize. He testi-
Ses to the long personal and political
friendship between Mr.. Dahlman and
himself and says he is forced to take
he position he does with regret
Mr.. Bryan said he had nothing TO add
% his former statement, which in part is

nent In favor of the election of Mr..
Dahiman. His position on the liquor
question makes that impossible.

Trust Missionary's Integrity.

..They know that in times of trouble the
missionary is their best friend. no mat
ter how much they may have abused him
in times of prosperity. They know that he
will always do what he believes to be for
their best good, even though there may
be difference of Judgment as to what
is the best thing. In the midst of orien-
tal duplicity the missionaries have es-
tablished a reputation for speaking the
truth At first this was one OF the Sc
verest puzzles to the Turks in the dealings
of the missionaries with the government
They could conceive of no reason for
telling the truth under such cfrcum-
stances, so that they were completely mis-
It is the policy of the missionaries to
make the natives do everything for them
pastors relieve them of much Of their
labor except supervision. But at the same
time the missionary must drive new
stakes and pillow new ground and plant
new seeds all the time to extend his
sphere of influence. And he travels about
for this reason, holding religious serv-
ices in the native languages and draw
ing believers together until he gets
enough material to start a church.

every Sunday in three different languages

Support Their Own Organizations.

Most of them are self-Supporting. Some
times the newly organized congregations
get a little help from the United States
at the start but the great majority of
native converts pay more for their rell-
gion and make greater sacrifices than do
the Christians Of the United States. For
example, thirteen out of twenty-seven
churches in the central Turkish mission
are not only entirely self-supporting, but
contribute substantial aid to weaker
churches in their neighborhood. In the
entire Turkish empire last year the ma
tive churches paid ffve-sixths of all the
expenses Of education. worship and CHAR
ity.
The board pays the salaries of the mis-
sionaries, but the effort Is to bring the
native churches to a condition OF pecuni-
airy independence, for the reason that 1t
stimulates their pride and their ambition;
it gives them confidence and se1f-respect,
which, as everybody knows, are the
strongest elements in the formation OF
national as we'll as individual character
Notwithstanding the extension of the
work the amount of money contributed
by the United States for the support OF
native churches has been growing small
er every year. I picked up report the
other day which showed that whereas
| the board contributed SJ,5S5 to assist
native churches twenty years ago,

Vital Need Cited.

Every congregation ought to have

| is not necessary to explain the advan-

times as important for a native conSre-
CATION in Turkey to have its own house
of worship as it is for congregation In
the United States, and for the same rea-

cial ability to provide its own house OF

There are about $50 American mission
| aries in Turkey today, and each has a
l district like the diocese Of an Episcopal
bishop, with a dozen or twenty churches
under his care. He visits them regularly,
advises with their pastors, superintends
their schools and exercises a paternal au-
thority over the people. They consult

THE SEINE RISING. SLOWLY.
Deputies and Senate Vote S4,000,000 to
Aid Sufferers

Paris, Feb. 1.-THE Seine rose only a few
inches during the night, and the hydro
graphic authorities predicted to-day that
the high level which should be reached to-
morrow would be about eight inches less
than was expected The Chamber of Depu-
ties unanimously voted to-day the 100000
for the aid of the flood victims which had
been asked by the Cabinet, and the Senate
unanimously concurred with the lower
house.
The vast financial scale of the relief
plans may be judged from the fact that
the government contemplates loans
amounting to $4,000, 900, 10 per cent of which
Will be on personal security and the bal
ance on real estate. The cost OF the guar
