Run Around Like Dog to be Well.
Tribune

Chicago Tribune.
Because the lower animals never
know the pains Of Indigestion. Dr..
Meunier, the famous stomach special
ist Of Paris has discovered a new
cure for this dreaded ailmeHt. Dr..
Meunier's advice to his patients is:
Get down on all-fOurs. Run
around the room like a cat or dog"
Dr. Meunier does not claim this
treatment will cure all kinds of stom-
ach trouble, but he does claim it will
cure several kinds of indigestion. He
recommends it especially for 'stom-
achic ptosis''-that is. the stagnation
Of a mass Of food in the stomach.
The new "all-four" method agitates
the stomach and gives it a sort Of
massage which enables it to perfo n
it's duties.

BALANCE KEPT BY NATURE
Increase Of the Human Race Seems to
Be Regulated by Wars and
Other Devastations.

Every year, according to scientists
who attempt to keep the general rec
ords, at least 100000 human beings
are born on this earth and 60,000,OOO
or 100000 die. This indicates
daily birth rate Of about 100000 and
q death rate Of 100000. The daily
increase in population therefore Is
about 10000. The total population OF
the globe is estimated at 100000, 600.
The ravages of war do little to I'M
pede the increase. Far more effective
have been the upheavals Of nature.
The Franco-Prussian war killed about
10000 in seven months. The death
roll of the Russo-Japanese reached
about 100000. A single earthquake
(1737, in India) has been estimated to
have caused 100000 deaths. The IA
talities of the Messina earthquake in
1908 cannot have been far short OF
100000. A tidal wave in 1896 drowned
$1,000 persons in Japan, causing a
greater loss of life than the whole
war with China in 1894. The earth
quake In Japan in 1903 is said to have
killed 100000 people. The Lisbon
earthquake in 1855 destroyed $4,000
human lives, while 10000 were lost in
the same year in earthquake in Per-
sia.
