If you belonp to tho great army of suffer
ers from tndlKcstloti you can rcallzo what a
national calamity it is that three-fourths
of tho American people are iu tho same
ranks.
It Is easy enough to moralize on what
brought about this terrible condition, high
lltlng, poor living, fast eating, improper
eating, worry, strain and a host of other
things. Hut tho grcatquestlon is, What aro
wo going to do about it and how aro wo
going to overcome its terrible effects?
couldn't Live without one.
Tho whole trouble lies in the stomach,
that's plain enough. IJut we can't afford to
remove tho stomach and wo can't afford to
let it bo destroyed by disease. It ls tho
most importatib'orgati of tho body and wo
couldn't II vo without it.
The stomach prepares the food for making
th blood that nourishes every organ and
tissue of the body. Without good, rich
blood the heart becomes weak, tho luntfs
break down, tho liver becomes choked and
tho kidneys are strained beyond endurance.
Thero Is no disease, except the conscqucnco
of injury, that is not directly caused or
aggravated by disorders of the stomach.
We Must Give it a Rest.
But what arc we going to do when the
etomach is completely tired out and can no
longer digest food? Wo must not allow our
bodies to become saturated with tho poison
ous materials formed liy tho fermentation
of undigested food that would be followed
by serious nnd probably fatal results; and
we must not wreck the nervous system by
the torture of Indigestion. We must give
the stomach rest. But how sue we going to
doit?
eie wig t Ditii ir.
We can stop eating. Soma people have
been forced to do it for awhile, and a few
havo dellberatoly tried to do it. A few
years ago ono man voluntarily wont without
eating for forty days and nights; but at the
end of that tlmo bo was little moro than
skin and bones.
Tbe oilier Wij.
It is evident that we can't llvo without
food and wo can't main tat ti good health any
length of time on half rations. When the
stomach is weary and refuses to work, wo
must devise some plan besides starvation to
give it a rest. Thero is only ono other way,
and that Is to do tho stomach's work for it.
There are a great many preparations that
can be taken immediately after eating that
will aid tiie digestion of food. Homo of
them help digest starchy foods, such as
bread and potatoes and cereals; others help
digest albuminous and nitrogenous foods,
such ns eggs and meat and cheese. Most
of theso preparations uro good as fur as they
go, but tlio y do not go far enough. Nature
demands a generous nnd varied diet, and
BVEttVTiiiNO wo cat must bo thoroughly
digested. Partial digestion may relievo for
a time, but it cannot euro dyspepsia.
The ceraraei sense Method.
To absolutely euro dyspepsia and restore
the digestive organs to health, wo must
give the stomach complete rest and gl vo tho
body a plenteous variety of good nourish
ment mid at tho same time supply recon
structive materials to bo used lu repairing
tho worn out structures.
To deviso a method of accomplishing
theso things has been a perplexing problem,
and Its solution marks a new era lu tho
treatment of dyspepsia.
low It wis Aeetipltsliel.
Hv Intricate experiment nnd laboratory
work it was found possible to combine, ia
exact proportions, all tho dlgcstants natural
ly used in tho digestion of tho various
classes of foods and to unlto with them tho
organic substances required to build up the
exhausted tissues.
Theso investigations wero especially con
ducted for tho purposo of devising a prep
aration which by its presence In tho stomach
nnd alimentary tract, would completely re
lievo the digestive organs from -work by di
gesting whatever class of foods might b
eaten.
Record Seems Renirkalle.
Tho result has been moro than It nt Drat
seemed possible to accomplish. The prepar
nt Ion formed on these principles, knowu aa
Kodol Dyspepsia Cure, has been used by
many thmisandsof dyspoptics, and In every
caso it afforded almost instant relief, ana
itacontinuod uso never failed to bring about
complete recovery, even In tho worst canea
nftcr everything elso had failed. Thla
record seems romarkahlo; but it Is only
a natural result of tho composition and
properties of this preparation.
It Digests what Yih Car.
Konot DTsrKrsiA Ctmrc digests what yon
cat and allows you to cat all thogood, whole
some food you want. If you nro suffering
from Indigestion you will bo surprised at tho
speedy relief It, will give you. If your casa
is of long standing It will require a reason
able tlmo to effect n cure; for Naturo cannot
replace worn out tissues with now ones by
magic. Hut when, by the use of this prep
aration, the stomach Is given absolute rest,
and abundant nourishment and reconstruc
tive materials furnished) recovery is certain
and permanent.

around the ureat chain of lakes,

Hut modern snuff taking as exemplified In

cotton mills Is nn entlroly different mutter.
Tho ordinary man or woman of ili'imly
huliltB rnnilfit regard any feature of It but
with feelings of repugnance.
Tilt re are four methods of using snuff
ndopted by tho working women and girls of
this country. They are dipping, rubbing.
and tho middle Rtatos claim tho greatest
chrwlng and bcnurlng. Dipping is practiced
moatly m the south, whllo New Knghtnd

! Chewing is a custom that only the uriso
, plilsticated and tho amatour Indulge In,
while scnurltirt Is also In great vogue In tho
eastern stutes. Tho dipping process Is very
i simple. Hy menus of a piece of card or
I paper a plnrh of snuff Is taken from the
! cn or paokago nnd dipped Into tho mouth,
to find n lodging plnco between tbo lower
j lips and tho gums Hero It Is manipulated
Into u ball and allowed to rest In Its place
I until its Htrcngth has been entirely o.
trnrted, when It Is ejected.
Hubhfng consists of tho dipping, with tho
! addition by the manipulator of a chewing
process, which helps to extract tho strength
, and flavor from the ball sooner than tho
dipping (done. Scouring Is the method most
In use In these mills, whero cotton waste Is
j easily obtainable. The mill girl or woman
i takes n small quantity of tlio material,
j moistens it slightly with oil of winter

the lips and gums,
In different sections of Now England tho
choice of flavors varies, Sometime) tho
manufacturers use u strong flavoring, and
then tho hublturil users of that particular
kind are satisfied to dispense with their
own chhonces. Spirits ot camphor, oil of
wlutergrei'ii and otl of peppermint nro all
popular, und then tho flavoring Is Incor
porated Into tho mnHH nnd uotd at tho samo
price ns Its consumption Increases.
Mho uso of tlio flavored snuff Is said to bo
confined largely to women, as men ad
dloted to the halilt-and they iuu few
prefer tho Ht.'onger varlotlts. Those who
aro fighting the practice In Now Kimlnud
uio htrong In their condemnation of tho
effects nf tho snuff used In this way on tho
health of tho female operatives, They say
that Its use dulls the senses of the victim
almost as completely ns would opium or
other narcotic, If Ibis bo true it Is it cheap
form of dissipation, for 6 cents worth of
spuff is generally enough to last or sev
eral days.
