YOUR HEALTH
Sub-acidity of the stomach.-II.
By ANDREW F. CURRIHR. ND.

No organ of the body gives peo-
pie more trouble and distress than
the stomach, though it also gives
much pleasure and satisfaction.
Its troubles range from the sim
plest dyspepsia to the serious ulcer
and the fatal cancer.
Especially after maturity, when
people are constantly indulging in
all sorts of improprieties in eating
and drinking, is the stomach prone
to be rebellious and refuse to submit
to maltreatment.
The stomach is at work so many
hours out of the twenty-four, 1t is not
strange 1t should give out and show
Its exhaustion by disease.
All kinds Of food pass into this
organ, but it digests only the pro.
teids or albuminoids
The mucus secreted by its glands
gives moisture and slipperiness to
the food mass, and the nydrochloric
acid and pepsin digest or liquify it.
These substances may be in ex-
cess. they may be deficient, and in
rare cases they may be absent.
Sub-acidity, or hypochylia, means
there is not enough Of them for
digestive purposes, just az in SUPER
acidity there is too much.
Sub-acidity Is less common than
super-acidity, occurs oftenest with
those who have some kind Of nery.
ous disorder and is unattended by
Inflammation or gastritis.
1t comes and goes and alternates
with periods when there Is too much
hydrochloric acid.
This fact is determined by ex-
animation af the contents OF the
stomach removed when digestion ia
at its height.
Connected with sub-acidity is n
condition known as "atony" Of the
stomach; which means that the mus.
eular coat is more or less paralyzed
and does not contract and churn its
contents about. which is an essen
tial part OF the digestive process
The conditions causing sub-acidity
may continue until. at length. no
acid at all is secreted, which would
mean that some OF the tubules which
produce gastric Juice have atrophied,

The fighting around Ypres yesterday was fierce and
continuous After tremendous artillery battle the in
fantry was hurled at the allied armies at several points
but no gains were made. 1t is claimed heavy toll of
human lives is being TAKEN and that the German losses
are such that the German preponderance of manpower
is rapidly passing away When it does it is gone forever
for just now the German armies are at their strongest
with the empire combed to provide every available man.
Germany is stalking her all this drive and if she fails
it will then be defensive for her and one which
before long should wear her out When the war is carried
onto German soil there will be sudden end to it for with
losing fight before them the German people will not
stand for further sacrifices.

under average conditions there will be of the biggest
orchard crops the country has ever known Continued
dry weather during the polinzaon has insured heavily

attended to by kind old Dame Nature she might vary the
program proftably by sending little rain. The winter
has been ideal for wheat and the growth is such as is
seldom seen even in the Willamette valley at this time of
