Hunting In Russia.

Nearly all the dogs used in hunting
wild animals In Russia not only attack
but endeavcr to devour their quarry
With the borzoi and gontscho it is en-
tirely different. at an early age they
are put into training with old and ex
perienced dogs. so that they soon learn
how to properly attack their adver
sary. They are slipped three at time
after a single wolf. When one Of the
dogs gets nearly side by side with the
wolf he makes one bold squirt and
with the fore shoulder strikes the wolf
so that be is knocked over or else
grips him by the neck. Each Of the
other dogs, coming up, strikes the
quarry in the same manner as he tries
to rise. finally pinning him to the
earth. so engaging him until the hunt
er arrives, The sportsman then either
kills the animal or takes him alive
the latter being much more exciting

DYSPEPS Ia
Catarrh Of the Stomach
Are you satisfied sOifh your stomach?
Haze you experimental all you care
to-? Would you really like Relief?

1t is safe to say that, in an assem-
blage of one hundred people, seventy
FIVE per cent of them have some stom-
ach trouble. Of course, the individual
is to blame, generally speaking. The
stomach is one of the most abused
organs in the human body, not be-
cause the average individual desires to
injure himself, but because, in ignor-
ance of the laws of health, he commits
errors in diet that promote acidity and
inflammation of the stomach.
The common and easily recognized
symptoms OF stomach trouble are loss
of appetite, food is distasteful, later
vomiting and pain, pressure on the
surface over the region of the stomach
is unbearable on account of the ex-
IRENE soreness resulting from the in
fammation. There is apt to be bad
taste in the mouth, with dryness of
tongue and more or less fever. In
some cases dizziness and headache are
noted, and there is a burning thirst not
easily satisfied by drinking cold water.
1t is only step from these described
conditions to the chronic stages, when
the fever g-ows less but the mucus
accumulates rapidly and the digestive
fluid is diminished so that the food
lies for hours in the stomach, undi-
gested, and decomposes into gas and
certain other irritating and poisonous
bodies.
Constipation generally follows, with
swelling of the stomach and abdomen,
and the victim becomes weak, nervous,
depressed and exceedingly miserable.
At times there are attacks of pain,
nausea or sickness at the stomach.
The attacks may occur frequently or
weeks may elapse between them. The
constipation may be interrupted by
spells of looseness of the bowels and
the discharge of gas. OftentimeS when
the accumulation of gas is pronounced,
the pressure is so great as to cause pains
in the heart and the victim Immediately
fears some organic heart trouble. As
climax to the difficulty that originates
in the digestive organs, the victim is
poorly nourished, loses flesh, grows
weak and pallid, becomes listless, in
different and low-spirited; in short, he
becomes a Chronic old dyspeptic" as
the common saying goes.
If you have pain in the stomach,
loss of appetite, what you think is
dyspepsia or indigestion, bad taste in
the mouth or foul breath, sick headache,
catarrh, gas, gnawing sensation, nervous
ness, heartburn, bloated feeling, then
