That Common Trouble, Sour stomach,
Now Known 20 be the Cause OF Serious
Diseases.
Sour Stomach" is the common name
for acid dyspepsia, and because II is a
common everyday trouble with many
people. they have come to look upon 1t
as OF little consequence, as Affecting
the general health. Nevertheless, the
most serious diseases have their begin
ming from this very condition. II Is
caused In the first place from weakness
OF the stomach which, instead OF
promptly digestlng and di5posinB OF the
food, allows II to lie in the stomach Tor
hours fermenting. causing gas, sour
rising In the mouth, heart burn. head
aches, oppression, dependency, dulI-
ness, etc.
The blood is thin. Impure, and clrcu-
lntion poor simply because 1t Is replen-
Ished from this mass OF fermenttng,
half digested food. This condition Of
the stomach cannot continue very long
without deranglng the nervous system.
the kidneys. heart, liver or lungs.
Which ever is weakest VIII break down
first.
Pure blood. strong nerves and mus
cles, firm healthy flesh can only come
from wholesome food well digested.
not reach the cause OF the mischief.
The stomach is the point 10 be looked
after. The safest and surest way TO
cure uny form OF indigestion Is to take
after each meal some harmless prepa-
ration which will OF itself digest food.
There is an excellent preparation Of
this kind composed OF vegetable es-
sences, pure pepsIn. Golden Seal and
fruit salts. sold by druggists under
name OF Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets
aud these tablets taken after meals
assist digestion wonderfully because
they will digest the food promptly. be-
fore II has time to ferment and sour.
aud the weak stomach relieved and
assisted in this way soon becomes
strong and vigorous again.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are Supe-
rior to any secret patent medicines be-
cause you know what you are taking
into your stomach, They are sold by
druggists everywhere at 30 cents per
package, IL

II 10 hard to recall ut once play
which has been produced in Wheeling
which combined in the same degree
beautiful story. picturesque stage set
tings and strong cast as did Augustus

opkra House last night for the first
time in Wheeling. The house was PACK.
cd hbstnlrs and down. every seat being
sold, and the number OF faces seldom

ture OF the gathering. II was realiy
great Dramatic event In wheeling
history.
All Inc close OF the third act Mr.. Frank
q. Bangs, the veteran actor who taxes
the leading role OF Col. Preston the old
Alabama planter, was recalled several
times. and finally made speech. when
showed that he was quite as much OF an
orator rs an actor, which is q rare com.
bination. He said the company claimed
10 be doing the greatest work yet to-
ward bringing the north and south to-
Eether. or showing them that they were
together; the play wus u sermon, ana
its text that there is no longer section
alism In America, but II Is one great
nation. He was heartily npplnuded.
The story Is a beautiful one. Without
scenery and with poor company OF ac-
tors Il would mako good impression.
The scenery, besides, Is so natural and
so rich that Il would make even poor
play succeed; while the cast Is 80 strong
that IL would be able TO entertain and
please even 10 the drama was weak.
The combination Is as pleasing as It Is
rare.
OF Mr.. Bangs II need only be said he
has lost none OF his old fire and fineness,
Mr.. Miller as Col Moberly reminded
every southerner in thc audience OF
people they have met Mr.. Kelly as the
squire makes a unique character and
real one. too. Mr.. cambridge carries
the part OF Capt. Davenport 80 natural-
~ that one forgets he is Mr.. Bainbridge.

keeps the audience alternating between
tears and laughter pretty steadily.
BY special arrangement the COM
pany cancelled its date for to-day and
will repeat the performance at the matt
