digestion. Strauss has shown that
even when there Is entire absence
of the salivary secretion there is
no disturbance of starch digestion.
There is no evidence whatever to
show that if starches are eaten
there is any difference in the
amount of secretion of gastric
juice. Furthermore, the acid Of
the gastric juice helps break
UP starches and prepare them
for intestinal digestion. Fermen-
tation is not caused by undi-
gested starch but by bacteria. And
the bacteria which would cause
fermentation in the upper part Of
the intestines are destroyed by the
hydrochloric acid of the stomach.
If that isn't stimulated to secre-
ton fermentation might really re-
suit.
Logical Argument
Logically it might be argued that
if the premises of this fad were
true, the stomach with it's acid
medium simply interrupts the con-
tinuity Of alkaline digestion from
the mouth to the intestine. The
answer to this, which the origina-
tors Of the theory apparently never
thought Of, is that people who have
no stomach digestion develop per-
nicious anenia.
."Let your mind alone" is James
Thurber's answer to all the new
tangled psychology. Let your di-
gestion alone" is the answer to
such fads as this.
That's the way the bear wore
it." was the answer the old man
made to those who advised him to
turn the fur of his bear laprobe
towards his body. That's the way
nature made it," is the answer to
trying to change the digestive
system. :.
"But why do these people get
benefit out Of it il it's no good?"
is the question that always comes
up. NV friends, if this same group
were to have explained to them
with equal FEASIBILITY and fervor
the idea that all their ills would
vanish if they ate nothing Dut
kangaroo tail soup, they would get
just as much benefit.

He therefore decided that, as
the spade finesse would be taken
to West, it was better to postpone
that try until he had endeavored to
find out where the club K was To-
Gated. He Immediately played the
club A and followed with a low
club, which west won with the K.
A heart was returned and East's ]
allowed to hold. A third lead Of
that suit was won with the A.
There was now no danger in TAX
ing the spade finesse, for, if West
held five originally, East had no
more to return and, if he held one
more, each opponent held only
four. The diamond return was won
with the A and the set up clubs
and spades cashed.

KILLING HIS HAND

GETTING a re-entry out Of the

Gterately abandoning the chance

CITY COURT ACT
 TO BE PRESENTED
Passage of Uniform Law Would Affect JurisdiC=
 ton of Local Tribunal

Passage of the uniform city court act which will be presented by a committee of the State Bar asso- citation to the general assembly of 1889, would have great effect upon the jurisdiction of the Waterbury court.
 Under the act, courts in towns one-fourth the size of Waterbury would have greater jurisdiction than that invested at present in the Wa terbury court.
 At the present time the Water bury city court is empowered to hear civil matters involving not more than $500. In criminal matters it may impose sentence not to exceed six months in addition to 8 fine of $200 plus costs.
 Under the Set-up as suggested by the bar association committee, courts in towns of 25,000 popula- ton and over would have civil jur- isdiction up to $1,000; and crim- inal jurisdiction up to a fine of $500 and year in jail.
 Courts in towns of less than 25000 population would have civil jurisdic- ton up to $500 and criminal juris- diction up to $250 fine and a six months jail sentence. The set-up at the present time is too incon- sistent to be acceptable, according to the bar association. Numerous large city courts have less juris- diction than their much smaller neighboring towns.
