FARLY RISING BY LAW.
Si r Robert Pea roe, ALP. for Leek, rallied amusement in the .1 louse of Commons one tiny last month by inl reducin'; a “Bill to promote the'earlier use of daylight in certain months yearly,” ami for other purposes relating thereto. The purpose, in effect, is to make people rise in the -summer actually at 6 a.in., while they think it is 7.20 a.m. Thus daylight will bo gained, expense of illumination saved, and tune found, especially for workers, for exercise between leaving work and sunset. No alteration is considered necessary in winter. The plan is to advance standard time on each of four Sundays in .Anvil by twenty minutes and to put it back on four Sundays in September by the same time. Ibe Pill makes the change occur at 2 a.m. on Sunday, so that people in .England would ‘ alter their watches on going to bed on Saturday evening. It as claimed that tho saving of daylight will lie: —During April, 2d hours; Mav. Juno, July, August, 1(M hours; September. 23 hours; total, 210 hours. “11l artilicial light alone, said air Pearce, “that (-dieme will save at least £2,000,000 yearly. It entirely the suggestion of Air A\ dliam AVI Heft, tho builder, and it has tho endorsement of scientists such as Sir Robert- .Hall, ilia astronomer and such men as Sir Clnrles Owens and Sir Alexander Henderson m the railway world. I soo nothing whatever revolutionary in tlie idea. It as merely applving to Great Britain the longitude of elsewhere. One -has already to alter one’s watch when travelling on the Continent, in Ireland, or in America.”
Yes sleep will sometimes euro n headache, but why depend on such a slow, uncertain and inconvenientay when Stearns’ Headache Curo will do it in a few minutes, without incou venionco ?—Advt. ALL ARE UNITED In saying that for all Stomach Troubles there is no remedy like Dr. Sheldon’s Digestive Tabules. Price, fad per ‘tin. Obtainable ai> A. VY. J. Mann’s, acont, chemist. PERFECT HEALTH. A good stomach Keeps every parr of the body in perfect condition, and Disease cannot break in. Dr. Shelden’s Digestive Tabules are a natural remedy for all disorders and weaknesses of the stomach. They possess exactly the same properties as the gastric juices and other digestive fluids of the stomach. They actually do the digestive work of the stomach, and enable that organ to rest, recu per ate, and become sound and healthy. They act In a mild, natural manuer, and cause no disturbance m the digestive organs. They prevent any fermentation of the food, which causes sour stomach. .Dr. Sheldon’s Digestive Tabules instil health into every part of the human body. They compel perfect digestion of the food and perfect assimilation of the food nutriment. Every organ of the body is kept in repair, and good health necessarily results. At the same time the stomach, being relieved of its work, gets well And strong. Obtainable at A. W. J. -Mann's, agent, chemist-. Chronic coughs are best treated by Stearns’ Wine which, by strengthening the system, enables it to throw them off. It does more good than cod liver oil, and tastes as good as fine old port.—Advt. INDIGESTION. (By “ Cured.”) ‘Food must be eaten in sufficient quantity, and must be digested, and be converted into blood. Nature makes this one of her most imperative laws of life. During the process of digestion food is entirely changed in composition by the action of the juices of the internal organs through which it passes. 11l the mouth it is thoroughly mixed with the saliva. Then it is swallowed, and enters the stomach, where it is acted upon by the gastric juices, and becomes partly liquefied. From the stomach it passes to the smaller intestine—which is about 13 feet in length —and there certain portions of the food are liquefied by the bile and other juices. The food thus made fluid is in a condition to be absorbed into and bo come a constituent part of the blood The indigestible portion of the food is discharged into the larger intestine, whence it is in turn expelled from the body together with other refuse matter. Just as certainly as that it is necescary to life that food must be absorbed, so, likewise, is it essential that the blood must be in a condition to absorb the food. .Torpidity of the liver is the chief cause of nearly every case of indigestion, and when the liver is torpid the kidneys are generally sympathetically affected. The blood, which should be transformed, cleansed and filtered b'y the kidneys and liver, then contains uric and biliary poisons, and is therefore a feeble absorbent of nutriment. This condition of the blood reacts upon the nervous system of the digestive organs, and prevents the flow and alters the quality of the. digestive juices. The entire nerve energy of a person suffering from indigestion is weakened, owing <o the contaminated condition of the b. od, and the general feeling of menta; and physical depression, which is experienced during an attack of dyspepsia, is due to this cause. The blood must be continuously purified by the action of the liver and kidneys, or good digestion cannot be expected to occur. Many sufferers from indigestion ob tain temporary relief by eating predi gested foods or taking medicines, such as pepsin, which act as digestives in the intestines. A course of such treatment merely encourages a slothful action of the digestive organs, and causes them to become gradually weaker and less capable of performing their duty, just in the same way that a person who takes little or no exercise becomes incapable, to any demand for Other sufferers irritate the digestive organs into temporar) and abnormal activity by taking purgative medicines so frequently that presently the stomach and ir istines refuse to act except under su. . irritating stimulation. The only rational and permanent cure for indigestion is to create such a condition of the blood that each corpuscle becomes hungry for food, and ready and eager to absorb it. The digestive secretions will then respond to the demands of the blood, and the stomach and intestines will perform their work as a matter of course. When the blood is laden with uric and biliary poisons it cannot adequately absorb food, and makes but a feeble attempt to do so. ■ ? " Warner’s Safo Cure is not a purgative medicine. It permanently cures indigestion and dyspepsia, simply because it restores the liver and kidneys to health and activity, so that the blood naturally becomes free from uric and biliary poisons, and ravenous to absorb nutriment freely. Nutriment is then conveyed by the blood to the nerves throughout the body. The nerves of the digestive organs being properly nourished, the organs are in a condition to do their work efficiently. Nature is merely aided in her efforts to preserve a balance in the manifold and complex processes of waste and renewal by which life is maintained. In addition to the regular 5/- and 2/9 bottles of Warner’s Safe Cure, a concentrated form of the medicine is now issued at 2/6 per bottle. Warner’s Safe Cure (Concentrated) is not compounded with alcohol, and contains the samo number of doses as tho §/- bottle 96 Warner’s Safe Cure.
