The Howard Association.

Editor of The Times:
Sir,--Many Of your readers VIII imagine
on reading the recent paragraph ABOUT
Mr.. William Tallack-whO supplied IT.
that the object OF the Howard Association
IS to obtain a more lenient treatment for
prisoners. Ii Is quite the reverse. Inc
object appears TO be TO uphold the strict
rules of Sir T.. Ducane. which are Sc
riousy endangered by the late report
OF a Departmental Committee. l may
remark that these Ducane Rules appear
TO be the real source of our new Prison
Rules. as lately published in the DuDln
Gazette Why they were adopted in Ire
land lust at the time when they were
becoming discredIted in England cannot
say, but any one who wishes 70 carry
out the real principles OF John Howard
should join the Humanitarian League IN
stead OF the Howard Association.

HOT WEATHER DYSPEPSIA.
Thousands Suffer from 1t at This
Season Oft Year.

Hot weather dyspepsia may be recog-
nized by the following symptoms: De-
preston of spirits, heaviness and pain in
the stomach after meals. loss of flesh
and appetite, no desire for food, bad taste
in the mouth, especially in the morning,
wind in stomach and bowels. irritable
disposition, nervous weakness, weariness,
costiveness, headache, palpitation, heart
burn. 1t is n mistake to treat such trou-
bles with '.tonics." blood purifiers -
"cathartics," pills" because the whole
trouble is in the stomach. 1t is indiges-
t!op or dyspepsia and nothing else.
All these symptoms rapidly disappear
when the stomach il relieved. strength
ened, and cleansed by Stuart's Dyspepsia
Tablets. They should be taken after
meals and 4 few carried in the pocket to
be used whenever any pain or distress is
felt in the stomach They are prepared
only for stomach troubles.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are en-
dorsed by such physicians as DR.. Harland-
son. DR.. Jennison. and DR.. Mayer, be-
cause they contain the natural digestive
acids and fruit essences which. when TAX
en into the stomach cause the prompt di-
gestiOn of the food before 1t has time 10
ferment and sour, which is the cause of the
mischief
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are pleasant
to take and unequaled for invalids. chill
dren and every person afflicted with i'm
perfect digestion. 1t is safe TO say they
will cure any. form of stomach trouble eN-
cept cancer of the stomach.
Nearly all druggists sell Stuarts Dys-
pepsia Tablets full sized packages at 81
cents. A book on stomach troubles and
thousands of testimonials sent free by
