FLATuENCE OR GAS

Almost every patient is troubled
with intestinal and stomach gas.
Hundreds Of people are dying each
day from the mechanical effects Of
this gas pressing against their
hearts and other vital organs.
Many functional and chronic disor-
ders are . result Of the continual
irritation from food fermentation.
There is . small amount Of air or
gas present in the alimentary tract
1t oil times. It is the excessive
amount which causes painful symp-
toms. Many pains in various parts
Of the body sometimes far removed
from the digestive organs are only
reflexes from intestinal pains from
stretching BY gas.
Many patients have the odd habit
Of unconsicously swallowing air with
their food or 1T the same time that
they imagine themselves belching. I
have examined many patients under
the X-ray who, not having any gas
in their stomachs would begin belch-
ing. Immediately I could see them
swallowing bubbles of air which
soon filled their stomachs and
caused unpleasant symptoms. This
is simply bad habit which must be
corrected.
Any inflammation Of the stomach
or intestinal tract will produce gas
even when one is not eating. Pa
tients who correct their diet some
times wonder why the gas does not
Immediately disappear, but it often
continues to form until the inflam-
nation has subsidized and digestion
takes place normally. Overeating,
bad food combinations, eating too
rapidly, eating when tired, drinking
too much with meals, eating too
often. using indigestible foods, and
the use Of foods which are gas
forming in themselves are also
causes Of this trouble.
After all these bad habits have
been corrected, it sometimes takes
several months to eliminate most of
the gas-forming bacteria which are
in the intestiney for the purpose of
breaking up food materials that
have been used in excess or in bad
combinations. One who lives on an
ordinary Olet may n0rDOr mlll1OnS OF
these harmless bacteria whose pur-
pose is to bring about changes in
food which would otherwise be
poisonous.
It is well for one afflicted with
flatulence to taboo all onions, garlic,
chives, cabbage, turnips and condi-
ments, and to select suitable diet
to which they will adhere strictly
until they have overcome their
trouble. Those who use restricted
diets where q smaller amount of
food is used will often be surprised
to notice that they have more gas
than they did before while eating
carelessly. This is because the small
amount Of food does not entirely use
up the digestive juice, and the re-
suit is that gas is formed when the
excessive acid fluids Of the stomach
pour into the intestines and are neu-
tralized by the alkaline intestinal
juices.
Doctors should use the X-ray as
an aid to the diagnosis of all diges-

Washington, July 24.-This is one
year when all the smart political
writers and nearly all the dumb
political writers are shaking their
heads and saying that this election
will be horse race Of which no man
can forecast the outcome.
And you can't prove anything else
by this writer, either.
Already DR.. Hubert Work has an
nounced that prosperity will be the
Hoover campaign keynote and that
experience has proved that you can't
ever trust the Democrats with pros
perity.
Experience hasn't proved anything
Of the sort, Of course, but q great

be that on November's first We'd

that the "full dinner pail" cry was

Meanwhile. Smith will undertake
to offset that. He will parade q
choice assortment Of manufacturers.

other millionaires. The list is

Raskob, chairman of the finance
committee Of General Motors. Bus
mess may prefer Hoover. but it
doesn't distrust Smith.
The prosperity boiler is mentioned
first only because it has figured in
SO many election campaigns before.
The trouble with doping this election
is that not only will all the old de-
Gliding factors figure this. year, but
also q great troop of ne = ones.
This, for instance, is tine first
time the middle west has threatened
any such revolt against tho G.. o. p.
and the first time the Solid South
has threatened to maze trouble for
the Democrats. Common opinion
now is that neither section will live
up to the expectations of the calam-
ity howlers, but that's not certain.
Smiths biggest ascot is his chance
to carry New York ard contiguous
states; his biggest handicap is his
religion. He is the first Democratic
candidate with q chance to carry
New York since Grover Cleveland

modification may be reco, ccd IN his
tory as the thing which decided the
election, but it's too early now to tel!
how the issue is going to work.
This year the Democratic party
isn't starting under any financial
handicap. Glenn Shaver left it with
money in the bank and Smith can
have all he wants for the campaign.
Most other Democratic candidates
for the last 80 or 40 years have been
forced to wonder at times whore
they were going to &c. carfare. The
new order Of things Will help con-
siderably.
Campaign management may also
tell. In the preliminary practice, the
Hoover managers have done a Ger
tain amount of fumbling. They'll
probably get over that, but cam
paign managers generally have
something the matter with them.
Smiths managers may even plan
to sing and shout him into the White
House, realizing that it might be
done for Smith where it wouldn't
work for Hoover. In the campaign
OF 1840, the Wings had no business
to beat the Democrats, but they par

THE FIVE-DAY WEEK
(nnluth Hnra1dl

President Green Of the American Federation of La
Dor, speaking Wednesday before the Wisconsin State
Federation reminded his hearers that the great organ
ization he represents is committed the policy of
general five-day working week.
That five-day working week. which was 50 startling
and looked red when it first proposed becomes
more toerabe. and looks less red, the longer it is
studied.
This country recently has seen the phenomenon Of
thriving industry and general prosperity coupled with
much unemployment.
The plain: Labor saving Devices ma
chimes doing the work of ncn, have made it possible
to do the nations work with much smaller working
force. In addition, increasing numbers of women at
work, married women, have reduced the number of
jobs open to men.
This process has not even yet reached its maximum,
but it will continue. Fewer and fewer men will be
needed as more and more cunning machines are de-
vlsed by which one man can do the work of many.
The five-day week is verv logical answer to the
problem thus created II the nation can do all the work
1t needs in five days, why work six AMI why. at the
cost OF increasing unemployment and discomfort, pile
up increasing wealth which will do mo-. harm than
good?
This change will not come Immediately. ::or will it

New milestones OF progress being recorded with
such rapidty that the general disposition is to take
things for granted.

Of new convenience. It is another milestone in
progress.

pleased because there is to be reduction in the gas
rate and taking it for granted because things Of this
kind have become commonplace.

The practical engineer had good deal to do with it.
He is the who made the plans and turned his brain
to solving the natural obstacles involved.
He is the best forgotten in America the world
