It. The fact, If true, le neither exceptloual
or atrange.
Very many men, and especially men ot

tact that their digestive organs ars their
malnatay. The hastily bolted breakfast,
the murried business lunch, the heavy and
elegant dinner, the very late and not too
hygienic supper these, with tha addition
of .extreme and continued mental etraln,
overtax tbe vital forcea and collapse oe

CALLS UP QUESTION OF SUBSIDIES
Claim Made that Great Britain Is !Sot
Getting Her Full Share of the
Atlantic Trad, for Lack
' of This.
LONDON. July 8. Lord Braasey, liberal.
Initiated a discussion on naval matters
in the House of Lords today, during the
course of which he deplored the fact tbat
Great Britain had lost tbe place It once
held with Ita mercantile marine. The ques
tion on aubsldlea he thought must depend
on tbe actionof the other powers. All the
naval powera of Europe gave liberal eub-
sldies. while President Roosevelt and for
mer Secretary Gage had recommended this
policy. It waa contrary to British policy
to foster Industries by bounties or protec
tion, but to pay for a reserve of auxiliary
vessels would certainly be to. the publlo
advantage.
Lord Belborne, the nret lord of the ad
miralty. In the courae of a reply referred
to the Atlantic ahipplng combine. He said
It seemed to blm that the balance waa
one of disadvantage to the combination,
because It necessarily placed very large
Dowera In tbe banda of a tew men. Tbe
government disclaimed any sort of Jealousy
of the Americana. They had an American
marine of their own and they had a per
fect rla-ht to a full ahare of the Atlantic
trade. It waa to British Interest that they
ahould have It. It ahould not be an aimoat
British monopoly. On the other hand
Great Britain oould not afford to see Itself
squeesed out of the Atlantic trade. Tbe at
titude of the government, mereiore, was
not one ot hostility, but of anxiety, and not
until they had formed an opinion or tbe
whole aueatlon could they wisely and fairly
enter Into agreementa with one party or
another. It would never do to rely In the
event of war on the merchant ahlpa ot other
natlona for the purpooo of Erltlsn .carry
in trade. Great Britain had fallen be
hind in reard to vessela of high apeed
becauae It had not given heavy subsidies
like other natlona. The expense of ao large
a aubaldy policy waa eo Insidious that in
hla opinion the aubaldlilng of commercial
corporation ahould and must be confined
to a limited number and for a apeclal and
definite ouroose. While merchsnt cruisers
ki their nroner Dlace in lime oi war,
they could never be aubatituted for naval
.miners nor would tbe possession oi mer
chant cruisers even diminish the ship
building vots for the navy.
