The Annoyance
 Of FIatulence
Many People Are Annoyed With Gas
 In the Stomach and lntestines.

 F7atulence is due to the presence of eas in the stomach and intestines, which joften rolls about. producing borborygmi, r Or rumbfing noises in the intestinal sys- tenn, and causes the victim of this trouble considerable embarrassment when such noises ooour while In company
 An analyBis of gas from the stomach shows that it consists to a great extent of nitrogen and carbonic acid. It is there fore probable that some of the gas in the stomach consists simply of air which nas been swallowed, although for the most part the source of fiatulence is the gas aiven of 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 digested slowly, and fermentation occurs with the evolu- ton Of gas.
 Swallowed air, however. plays a more impoytant part in causing hatulence, or gas in xhs stomach and intestines than is generally supposed. and while food may be swallowed without carrying air into the stomach with 1t, fluids. especially those of tenaceous character, such as pea-soup. appears to carry down a great deal.
 T1atulent distension of the intestinss OOGQIU V air, either swallowed or evolved from the decomposition of food, escapes from the stomach into the intestines through .he , pyloYus The enormous distension of the intestines and dilation of the stomach with GAses, and the rapidity with which sudh natulencs occurs. has long been q puzzle to medical men. and has led some to think that the only possible explana- tion thereof Is rapid evolution of gas from the blood.
 In the treatment of gas in the stom- ach and intestinss, charcoal ir considered by most physicians as the leading and most effective remedy. Carin!uatives. or medicines, such as peppermint, carda- mom, sodium. bicarb. etc. which expei the gas from the stomach in large vol tunes through tho mouth, are. resortsd to by some people, but their use is dis agrseatie, and the frequent expulsion of gas through the mouth, most annoying. and after taking . remedy of this kind one Is compelled to remain out of compa- ny the rest of the day, on account of tho continued belching of air.

 These wonderful loxengss should be used for all eases of natuleace and ce- composition of food in the stomach, as ws1l as for bad breath resulting from ca tarrh, decAyed teeth. or stomach trouble.

SHARP SLUMP IN
 COTTON PRICES Decline Of Four Dollars a Bale Occurs In New Orleans SMALL FRY CLOSED OUT Several Factors Cause the Drop, Principal Among Which Are Weak ness In Stocks and British
 Politics.

New Orleans, January 5.-One of the most sensational declines ever seen on the local cotton exchange took place this afternoon when, within less than an hours trading, there was a break of 7s to s4 points, or about $4 bale, in active deliveries.
 The decline came without any warning. Around the middle of the session prices seemed inclined upward and actually made an advance of to 10 points over yesterdays closing. From this level there was a perpendicular drop amid the widest excitement and extremely heavy trading, in which holders of long cotton were closed out by the score.
 Selling by bearish interests in New York and Liverpool served to start the decline and weakness in Wall street and the unsettled condition of English poll tics brought 1t to a climax. As the de- cline progressed stop loss orders on the long side were caught adding to the great volume of offerings.

 MT. Hitchcock, however, was quite cer- tain, it is said, that whatever deter imitation might be reached by the Pres- ident respecting federal patronage would affect not merely the postoffioe depart ment but also all branches of the gov- ernment.
 Representative Madison of Kansas ex- pressed view on the matter to which several of his associates subscribed. He said:
 I've insurgents, as we are called, are not against Taft, or his policies. We are unanimously, believe. in favor of every leading reform to which the President and the republican party is committed. For instance, I am in favor of postal savings banks, conservation of natural resources, regulation of Injunction, re- form of federal court procedure, govern ment regulation and control of industrial and carrying corporations, the publication of campaign funds and other reforms. Most of the other insurgents are for these same things.
 Committed to Principles.
 ''It is all slanderous to say that we can be swerved from the course of supporting these reforms by the withholding of any official patronage by anybody, or be in- duced to support this or that proposition by the offering of official sop of any kind We are committed to the principles which have enumerated because we be- lieve they are right and not because the President or anybody else is for or against them.
 "It is not the insurgents of the house but men like Aldrich and Cannon whom the President will have to induce to sup port his policies The insurgents are for them already and have been all of the time''
 Representative Norris of Nebraska and Representative Hayes of California said they approved MT. Madison's statement,
 MT Hayes said it was the independence of the representation in Congress for which he was contending that he stood before the body. The insurgents are discussing the desirability of holding an early meeting and making an effort to as- certain from President Taft the party stand.
 There was no apparent significance in the cdntroversy on either side today ex- cept numerous conferences between in surgent republicans from the House and the senators from their states regarding the policy they are to pursue in the flu ture.

FORTUNE CLEARED
BY "JOCK" DUGAN

4 L. E"
Ney York, March 14.-Has anybody
seen Dugan?
Not little Johnny. Dugan. famous In
song and story as the man who stole
McCartXs wife. blltslittle Eddie Dussn
who Is. going TO ride August Belmont's
horses on the local race tracks this
summer. 8s
Dugan Isl headed east. but presum-
ably he has stopped OFF somewhere to
count his money, for the youngster has
succeeded In harvesting up some
100000 in regular money, and so far
neither moth nor rust nor bookmakers
have corrupted it, and Eddie is going
to let his new. employer plant it in one
OF the Belmont banks, for the Jockey is
preparing not for an ordinary rainy
day, but for a, regular rainstorm which
sooner or later overtakes ali knights Of
the pigskin. who are inclined to take on
weight. Dugan. hopes that when the
time does come for him to quit riding
the 100000 will have doubled.
Eddie is the premier jockey of Amer
lea, and he is even thinking of going
abroad and showing some OF the Eng
lish boys the latest styles In riding win
ners. This winter he has been plotting
a large percentage Of the first-past-
the-post horses at EneryviIle. and Au-
gust Belmont thinks that the 1s-year-
old rider will be a big help to the Bel
mont animals in the east.
The reason for Dugan's brilliant sue
cess on the turf Is very simple, when
the little fellow tells you that he loves
the sensation of race. riding for his own
pleasure. The fascination of the turf
has taken hold of the clever pilot, and
he goes about his work with a deter
mination and earnestness that is really
more a recreation than STERN money
making occupation.
Though dame fortune is. smiling on
Dugan now in all her brilliancy, there
was time that the messenger boy was
treading a, thorny path on his way to
success. He had to work hard to learn
the art of handling Thoroughbred.
When Eddie was serving his appren-
ticeship days he very often DISCOURAGED
his admirers by his ungainly saddle
work, and at least two stable owners
passed him along the line after coming
to the decision sthat he never would
amount to anything as jockey

EVOLUTION OF
The AUTOMOBILE

Regarding the automobile, the one
great conspicuous fact is the rapid de-
velopment which the comparatively
new vehicle has made in the direction
Of universal serylceab ility In this re-
spect, 1T ranks next to the telephone
among the very modern invention.
We are not SD aking of tt automo-
bile as it appears today. The handsome,
easy going carriage that he's done so
much to increase mans working cap
acity and pleasure taking capacity.
From the tentative and almost timid
machine that ventured forth hardly
more than a dozen years ago 1t has
become a popular vehicle desired and
appreciated by all those who are ac-
customed to take advantage of every
new mode of comfort and convenience.
In the pioneer days the French
manufacturers had things quite their
own way and excellent progre-7 is
still being made abroad; but the most
remarkable evolution of all has been
made here In the United States AS
late as five years ago. twice as many
cars were brought into the country
as were shipped out. Nowadays Amer
leans are exporting fully Ave times as
many automobiles as are being import
ed. AS for valuation the imports for
the first ten months of 1909 showed a
total Of about $2.50O.00O, while the ex-
ports showed an, agg -egate value of
nearly $6,750,000. Last year about 95,-
900 cars were produced in the United
States by the so-called licensed man
ufacturers. while IL is estimated that
at least 10000 more were In the out
put of other manufacturers The H.
censed manufacturers make the tre-
mendously impressive report that the
gain In production last year over that
of the year before was 1870 per cent
That circumstance Of itself furnishes
striking evidence of the rapidly in.

ity OF the automobile and of the equal

turers to supply a fast -expanding de-
mand.
