And eating is simply perfunc
tory done because it must be.
This ia the common, complaint of
the dyspeptic.
If eating sparingly would cure
dyspepsia, few would suffer from it
long.
The only way to cure dyspepsia,
which is "difficult digest'on, is to
give vigor and tone to the stomach
and the whole digestive system.

Bail's Family Pill are the best.
lae barber shop, during his bl I milieus,
which lasted for seveu years, has man
aged his business entirely by touch and
bearing.
One would think that even customers
of lougest staudlng would hesitate be
fore golug to a man who could not see,
but Mr. Max has uot only not lost auy
of bis old customers, but has added
many new ones to bis trade since be
lost his sight.
Mr. Max Is a young-looking, pleasant-faced
man, who carries out his ap
pearance In his disposition. lie was
quite ready to describe the way la
which he carries on his business in
spite of his great handicap.
"I can tell whereabouts In the shop
my men are and what they are doing,
just as easily as though 1 were look
ing at them all," he said, good-naturedly.
"I know them all by their step, and
when they move I can tell where they
go. Every man, as you know, has an
individual walk. Just as he has an In
dividual temperament, and as the differ
ent barbers In my shop walk about the
marble floor I know whether it Is Jim
my, who Is nervous, or George, who l
slow and very careful. It Is. of course,
easy to tell whether a man's hair or
beard Is being cut, the ring of the
shears being very different In each
case.
"I can tell when a man Is being
shaved by the scrape of the razor, and
sometimes I know whether the beard is
a stiff or a soft one.
"When a man Is having an egg sham
poo I hear the egg shell cracked and
the egg beaten and I hear the customer
go to the fountain afterward to wash
his head.
"This may seem a little farfetched.
j bnt everything done In a barber shop
I has some very characteristic sound,
and If you had been In the halr-cuttlng
! business as loug as I have you would
i recognize these movements and sounds
j as I do.
j "I can tell Just about what the day'a
1 business has been and what we ought
to have made. My daughter is the
i cashier, and when she is away I make
the change myself. I can tell nil the
coins by the feeling, but, of course. 1
do not know one bill from another, and
I never attempt to make change for
anything but a II bill."
