Sand is the latest euro £pr indigestion ami other internal troubles. The new cum (the 'Express' says) was discovered bv Mr John Fitzgibbon, the president of an. iron company in Muncie Indiana. In the words oi the patent medicine advertisements, he had been a sufferer from indigestion for years, but two or th've doses of washed sand made him a new man. He told his friends of his discovery. Most of them jeered at him as a ehank, but two of his fellow victim* from dyspepsia gave his cure a trial. Nov,' they, too, declare that they are curedj and never felt better in their lives. Mr Fitzgibbon says that whilo he takes his sand baked some people find it more efficacious raw, and if baked sand does not suit thorn ho declares they should try it mr-boiled. "Before I took the baked sand cure," he says, "I was nervous, generally run down, and subject to violent attacks of stomach trouble, which made me worthless at mv desk and ft nuisance to my friends and my family. If there is anyone in the- world who feels better than I do these days, or cjjn stand more work and he pleasnnter about it than myself, I'd like to set a look at him. The- sand I 1130 is the common ordinary oaiid with tlie dirt picked' out."
