SUPERIOR MERIT.
Remarkable Curative Properties of
New Remedy for Indigestion
and stomach Wea kness. :

Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets, new pFepar-
alton for the cure of dyspepsia aud the
various forms of indigestion and stomach
trouble, o ives its great success n cure for
these troubles to the fact that it is prepared
for disease and weakness of the stomach
and digestive organs only and is n OF recon-
mended or advised for any other disease
1t is not a cure e-all, but for any stomach
trouble it is undoubtedly the safest, most
sensible remedy that can be advised with
the prospect of permanent cure. 1t is
prepared in tablet form, pleasant to taste,
composed of vegetable and fruit essences,
pure pepSin and Golden Seal, every one of
which act effectively in digest ing the
food eaten, thereby resting and invigorat-
ing the weak stomach; rest is uature's cure
fer any disease, but you cannot rest the
stomach unless you put into it something
that will 10 its work or assist in the d.
gestion OF food. That is exactly what
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets do, one grain
OF the digestive. principle conta ined in
them will digest 5000 grains of meat,
egg, or similar wholesome foods. They will
digest the food whether the stomach is in
working order or not, thereby Douishing
the body and resting the stomach at the
same time. and rest and nourishment Is
natures cure for any weakness. In persons
run do wn In flesh and appetite these
tablets build up the strength aud increase
flesh, because they digest transforming
food which the weak stomach can not do:
they increase the flow Of gastric Juice and
prevent fermentation, acidity and sour
watery ,risings.
.stnart's Dyspepsia Tablets can be found
at all drug stores at 80 cents per package.

SATOLLPS PLANS NOT MADE
He Does Not Know When He Will
Take His Departure.
While His Recall Is Admitted, No
Verlficatton of FalcOniO's Appoint
nient Has Been Received.

Cardinal sa,olli, when seen by Times
reporter last night, admitted the truth of
the published reports that he had been
relieved of his labors i'll this country, but
expressed himself as being una ware of
the appointment Of his successor.
When asked what course he would pur-
,ue relative TO his departure from the
United States, lie replied that it would
be several mouths before he would leave
this country, and that lie had made no
plans for the event.
The report that Monsignor Falconio has
been designated by the pope to succeed
Cardinal Satolli as apostolic delegate to
tile United States cannot be confirmed ut
the papal legation here.
Dr.. Rocker, secretary of the legation,
said yesterday that Cardinal Satolli had
permission to go to the coDsistOry, which
takes place on tile Goth instant, but had
decided TO remain here, as the pope de-
sired him 10 do SO. While nothing is
known here regarding the appointment OF
his successor, it is generally understood
that the cardinal will remain in this
country until lis successor arrives.
