The Stomach Cannot Rest.

It is mistake to suppose the stomach
can rest and thus recuperate and by this
means dyspepsia is cured. The digestive
process begins in the mouth and does not
end until the food has reached the in,
ftestines. The salivary glands in the
mouth, the stomach. lower stomach, liver,
spleen, etc., take part in the digestive
process. This process is going on con-
tinously. Think of resting the heart or
the lungs for few minutes, or any other
organ. Pepsin pancreatin, etc. do not
rest the stomach, they digest the residue
of food weak digestive system cannot
digest and thus relieve the body of irri-
tating acids or gas. Rydale's Stomach
Tablets contain just enough Pepsin, and
Pancreatin TO do this. They also con-
tain many vegetable tonics and stimulants
for the digestive tract. Rydale's Stomach
Tablets cure dyspepsia the only way it
can be cured. Ask us about them. Eli
T. Reynolds.

The Farming Commissions Meeting
At La plata.

The commission on farming which was
appointed by Governor Cro.hers, and
which will shortly hold q meeting at La
Plata, IS charged with the consideration
Of momentous subject. It is becoming
more and more necessaryathat the yield
Of the farm lands per acre should in.
crease. The average yield of wheat
70 the acre in England is nearly three
times IS great as II is in America, and the
land there has been cultivated thousand
years. By doubling the yield per acre
the profit Of the farm increases. This Is
true not only of wheat but of other crops.
BY intelligent farming, by farming as
good as that IN England, the wheat crop
Of the United States could be doubled
without any proportionate increase in the
cost Of production and there could easily
be produced q surplus of 900, 900, 900
bushels for export. This will come in
the near future. People are beginning to
realize farming is scientific business.
Never was there a time when so much
study was devoted TO It as at present, and
the result will be an increased profit in
farming along with an increase in the
food supply,
The meeting of Governor Crothers'
commission will be held in Southern
Maryland. where better methods of farm.
ing are needed. It would be an enduring
benefit if the commission could not only
interest The Maryland farmers in more
scientific methods of farming, but could
attract someof the good farmers of the
Northwest. who are leaving the United
States for the frozen fields of Canada.
The farming commission has great
ieid TO cultivate, aud it should be aided
and encouraged by all coed citizens
The staple crops are all selling well and
the time is appropriate for increasing the
interest of farmers in their Calling

'.Uncle Joe" Sat On Top OF powder
KeG.

According to newspaper report from
Washington, Speaker Cannon escaped by
only the breadth of hair being thrown
out of the chair of the Speaker in the
closing hours of the session which has
just ended. This has just become known.
It was known on the last day of the ses-
sion to only very few men. The air
was tense with expectation in the House
the last afternoon and evening. The
wise ones among the regulars, among the
insurgents and among the Democrats
were looking for something to explode.
And it would have exploded had some-
body touched the trigger. 1t that case,
in all probability, "Uncle Joe" would not
now be speaker and the Head of the
House would either be vacant or some
younger and newer man would have
taken his place.
All the quiet was on the surface. One
of the insurgent leaders had already pre-
pared in his pocket aresolution declaring
the chair Of the Speaker vacant He had
consulted only a few of insurgent colleag-
ues. But he knew that if the proper
psychological moment arrived, almost the
whole insurgent strength and the whole
Democratic strength would unite for the
resolution.
Had Speaker Cannon. in his closing
speech, attacked the insurgents add crit
icised them as he has in past speeches.
the resolution to throw him out of the
Speakers chair would have instantly
been sprung. The member who had It In
his pocket was waiting and hoping the
speaker would invite fight by using in
temperate language about insurgency.
This insurgent leader knew that If Speak.
er Cannon made the opening for reso.
luton to oust him, such resolution
Would go through. He reasoned on the
other hand that if Speaker Cannon
breathed peace. then the House would
not be in mood to oust him and it would
be useless to try 1t.
Everybody knows what happened.
Speaker Cannon was in forgiviug mood
He made speech to which no one could
take exception so far as the personal ref
erence IN it were concerned. And be
continued as Speaker.

What of the Future.

There are questions that we of the
great civilized nations are ever tempt
cd to ask of the future. Is our time
of growth drawing TO an end? Are
we as nations soon TO come under the
rule of that great law of death which
is itself but part of the great law of
life? NoEe can tell Forces that we
can see and other forces that are
hidden or that can but dimly be APP
pretended are at work all around us,
both for good and for evil. The
growth in luxury, in love of ease, in
taste for vapid and frivolous excite
ment, is both evident and unhe llthy.
The most ominous sign is the iimi-
mutton in the birthrate. and the rate
of natural increase, now to a larger
or lesser degree shared by most of
the civilized nations of central and
western Europe. of America and Aus
tralia; a diminutton so great that If
II continues for the next century at
the rate which has obtained for the
last twenty-five years. all the more
highly civilized peoples will be sta
tionary or else have begun to 20 back
ward in population. while many of
them viii have already gone very far
backward.
There is much that should give US
concern for the future But there is
much also which should give us nope.
