aRUEGRY As A HUNTER. .

That is the condition of those, ut meal
time, whose digestive organs are eperformIng
their natural and healthful functions. But
on the other hand suppose their appetites
are rendered capricious by the taunts of
dyspepsia. Nerves, blood. muscle and brain
may demand ever so much of the tissue
building and cnergiZing properties of food,
but the stomach has no power to prepare
them for the system. Millions of thin, pale
aud worried looking people remember the
delusive hopes of recovery they were led to
indulge in by the broad claims of some pat
ent cure-all and how their air castle ended
in disappointment.
Something to relieve the enfeebled diges-
tive organs is what most dyspeptics require.
This is wonderfully well done by Stuart's
Dyspepsia Tablets the most perfect remedy
known; simply a scientific certainty. Sim
ply performs the digestive operation while
the diseased organs rest and recuperate,
soon enabling the stomach to properly di-
gest the strongest foods. Then the patient
may follow the dictates of appetite without
danger. In all cases of stomach trouble
nature needs help, not stimulants. This is
the common sense way in which allsuccess-
full physicians treat such troubles.

AMOS RUSIE HAS NO CASE
His Appeal Did Not Warrant a
Meeting Of Leagus Directors.
President Young Sends His officinl
Notice to Mr.. Freedman-Mnst
Deal With New York Club.

New York, May 2s.-Amos Rusie in his
fight against the New York Club has re-
ceivcd serious setback. Acting upon tile
advice OF his attorneys in Indianapolis, the
big pitcher some time ago appealed to the
National Board for his release from the
New York Club on the ground that he had
been unjustly fined,
AS tile National Board has no jurisdiction
in the case, Rusie was compelled TO turn to
the Leagues board OF directors. When
he took thisaction 1T was currently reported
that the League would discipline the presi-
dent of the local club by setting the player
free.
Andrew Freedman has received official
notice from N. E. Young, president of the
National League, that lie mad declined TO
call a meeting OF the directors, and that they
had subsequently advised him that Rusie' s
appeal did not warrant such meeting or
any official consideration. AS the League
has refused to act, Rusie's only hope is to
capitulate or quit the game.

ing. According to a Georgia paper, she
owns handsome estate of ! 900 acres,
which she cuitivates with great skill
and success. Upon it she conducts a
dairy, stock farm, a cannery, pre-
serving establishment, a vineyard and
wine distillery and piggery Each of
these Is prosperous to high degree.
The owner is public spirited and ex-
hlbitS her products at every fair and
exposition. She began this work in 1888
and in seven years has carried off nearly
100 prizes. She ascribes her success to a
good education and careful reading. She
makes special study of the application
Of science, particularly chemistry, to
her fields of industry and utilizes every
new idea which appears.

The greatest attraction of Hyde park
is one which LOndoners and most visit
ors fail to discover and appreciate. 1t is
4 unique and subtle charm whose mean
ing only those can know who have fall

verdure in the world set i'll the very
center of great city. Boston Common
is but garden compared with il, Cen
trail park may soon be hsnmed in by
New York's teeming millions, but not
yet. Hyde park is grateful refuge Of
silence in the midst of turmoil Only
upon its outer borders does the restless
mob infringe. Within, away from Rot
ten row, away from carriage drive and
fashionable promenade, there is always
rest, tranquility, silence no, not si-
lence, but i'll its place the thing which
is the mysterious charm of the spot
Find a seat upon bench in the midst
Of the wide, sweeping, open green where
the eye sees only grass and trees, with
no sign of the vast city ON any side. Sit
for a few moments and listen-listen,
and there Will come to your ears the
most wonderful sound in all the world.
1t is the voice of Londcn-an ever
changing, inarticulate, pregnant solil-
oquy. One day it will be the gentle
murmur Of a sea shell. Again it is the
harsh grinding of the mill of the gods
crushing human grain beneath its upper
aid neither millstones. The mighty but
distant reverberation is sometimes a
triumphant harmony, sometimes a minor
hote, melancholy and despairing. The
myriad tongued voice which comes from
the east is suIlen, protesting, enduring /;
that from the west is a careless chorus
Of pleasure and prosperity; that from
the north is hopeful strain of patient
progress; that from the south is a ca
dence of struggle and sorrow, and the
whole is a symphony of human life, ma
jestic, inspiring, infinitely pathetic
Nowhere save in this spot does the
greatness of London impress itself upon

It Stands on the Banks of the Nile Not
Far From Cairo.
Tho oldest of all the obelisks is the
beautiful one of rosy granite which
stands alone among the green fields ON
the banks of the Nile not far from
Cairo. 1t is the gravestone of a great
city which has vanished and left only
this relic behind. That city was Beth
shemes of Scripture. the famous Oh,
which is memorable to all Bible readers
as the residence of the priest of On,
Potipherah, whose daughter Asenath
Joseph married. The Greeks called it
Heliopolis, the city of the sun, because
there the worship of the sun had its
chief center and its most sacred shrine.
1t was the seat of the most ancient uni
versity in the world, to which youthful
students came from all parts of the
world to learn the occult wisdom which
the priests of On alone could teach.
Thales, Solon, Eudoxus, Pythagoras
and Plato all studied there; perhaps
Moses too. 1t was also the birthplace Of
the sacred literature of Egypt, where
were written on papyrus leaves the orig
inal chapter of the oldest book in the
world, generally known as 1.-The Book
of the Dead, giving a most striking
account of the conflicts and triumphs of
the life after death, a whole copy or
fragment of which every Egyptian, rich
or poor, wished to have buried with
him in his coffin, and portions of which
are found inscribed on every mummy
case and on the walls of every tomb. In
front of one of the principal temples of
the sun in this magnificent city stood,
along with a companion long since de-
stroyed, the solitary obelisk which we
low behold ON the spot. 1t alone has
survived the wreck of all the glory of
| tire place. 1t was constructed by User
| tesen /, who is supposed to have reigned
| $500 B. c., and has outlived all the dy-
nastic changes of the land and still
stands where it originally stood nearly
A. centuries ago. What appears of its
