The Annoyance
of Fiatulence
Many People Are Annoyed With Gas
In The Stomach and Jntestjnes,

Many People Are Annoyed With Gas
In The Stomach and Intestines.
Flatulence is due to the presence of
gas in the stomach and intestines,
which often rolls about, producing
borygmi, or rumbling noises in the in
testinal system, and causes the victim
Of this trouble considerable embar-
assment, when such noises occur
while in company.
An analysis Of gas from the ston-
ach shows that it consists to great
extent of nitrogen and carbonic acid
1t is therefore probable that some Of
the gas in the stomach consists sim
ply of air which has been swallowed
although for the most part, the source
of flatulence is the gas given off from
the food in the abnormal processes OF
decomposition
In cases of chronic gastric catarrh,
the secretion of gastric juice in the
stomach is deficient, the food is ,di-
gested slowly, and fermentation oc-
ours with the evolution of gas.
Swallowed air. however, plays a
more important part in causing fiatu-
lence, or gas in the stomach and in
testines than is generally supposed,
and while food may be swallowed
without carrying air into the stomach
with it, fluids. especially those Of a
tenacious character, such as pea-soup,
appear to carry down great deal
Flatulent distension of the intes-
tines occurs when large amount Of
gas or air. either swallowed or evolv-
ed from the decomposition of food,
escapes from the stomach into the in
testines through the pylorus. The
enormous distension Of the intestines
and dilatation of the stomach with
gases, and the rapidity with which
such flatulence occurs, has long been
a puzzle to medical men, and has led
some to think that the only possible
explanation thereof, is rapid evolu-
ton of gas from the blood.
In the treatment of gas in the stom-
ach and intestines. charcoal Is con-
sidered by most physicians as the
leading and most effective remedy.
Carminatives, or medicines, such as
peppermint, cardamon, sodium bicarb,
ETC.. which expel the gas from the
stomach in large volumes through the
mouth, are resorted to by some peo-
pie, but their use is disagreeable, and
the frequent expulsion Of gas through
the mouth most annoying, and after
taking a remedy of this kind, one Is
compelled to remain out of company
the rest of the day on account of the
continued belching of air.
STUARTS CHARCOAL LOZENGES
do away with the necessity Of under
going the disagreeable experience Of
belching or expelling stomach gases
through the mouth, by completely alb
sorbing every particle of gas or swal-
lowed air in the stomach, and also in
the intestinal system, which prevents
collie, and over-distension with &C
cumulated air.
These wonderful lozenges should be
used for all cases of f1atulence and de-
composition of food in the stomach,
as well as for bad breath resulting
from catarrh, decayed teeth or stom-
ach trouble

druggist for 25 cents, and send us

1.-THE most stirring event in Chinese
missions was the Boxer massacres OF
1899 and 1900, in which 1888 Prote.
slant missionaries and their children
were slain, and about fifty Catholic
missionaries, with 5000 native Prote.

the most striking scenes in the mis-

in August. 1894. they ragged for two
