Tuesday morning about 9 o'clock
Mr.. J. M. Sheppard's store-house,
situated in the forks of the Mount
Pleasant and Hampshire turnpikes,
just outside of the corporate limits,
was totally destroyed by fire. The
house was occupied at the time by
Alb Addison, as grocery store.
Some one passing there at that hour
discovered the flames issuing from
the cellar, and the alarm was given
Being outside of the corporation, the
fire company did not respond, and
the fire had its own way. About a
year ago the building, which had
stood on this same site for more than
a quarter of a century,was set on fire
in pretty much the same manner
Mr.. Addison was fully insured OF
his stock, but Mr.. Sheppard had nc
insurance on the building. 1t is be
lieved that this fire was the work o
an incendiary.

THEY RIDICULE IT.
Many People Ridicule the idea of DIN
Absolute Cure for Dyspepsia
ahd stomach Troubles.
Ridicule. However, Is Not Argu-
ment, and Facts Are Stub
born Things.


Stomach troubles are so common and in
many cases so obstinate to cure that people
are apt tolOok with suspiciOnon any remedy
claiming to lie a radical, permanent cure
for dyspepsia and indigestion. Many such
pride themselves on their acuteness in
never being humbugged, especially on med
icines.
This fear of being humbuggcd may be
carried too far; SO far, In fact, that many
persons suffer for years with weak dgcs-
ton rather than risk IA little time ana
money in faithfully testing the claims OF a
prcpa ration so reliable and universally
used as Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets.
Now, Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are
vastly different in one important respect
from ordinary proprietary medicines Tor
the reason that they are not secret patent
medicine, no secret is made OF their 1ngre-
dents, but analysis shows them to contain
the natural digestive ferments, pure aseptic
pepsin, the digestive acids, Golden Seal,
bisnuth, hydrastis and nuX. They are not
cathartic, neither do they act powerfully
on any organ, hut they cure indigestion on
the common sense plan OF digesting the
food eaten thoroughly before it has time
to ferinent, sour and cause the mischief
This is the only secret of their success.
Cathartic pills never have and never can
cure indigestion and stomach troubles he
cause they act entirely upon the bowels,
whereas the whole trouble is really in the
stomach.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets, taken after
meals, digest the food. That is all there is
to it. Food moi digested or half digested
is poison, as il creates gas, acitlity, head
aches paipitation of the heart, loss Of
flesh ana appetite and many other troubles
which are often called by some other
name.
They are sold by druggists everywhere
at 90 cents per package. Address Stuart
