DANGER IN SODA.
Serious Results Sometimes Follow Its Excessive
 Use.

Common soda is all right in its place and indispensable in the kitchen and for cooking and washing purposes, but it was never intended for a medicine, and people who use it as such will some day regret it.
 We refer to the common use of soda to relieve heartburn or sour stomach, a habit which thousands of people practice almost daily, and one which fraught with danger moreover the soda only gives temporary relief and in the end the stomach troub1e gets worse and worse.
 The soda acts as a mechanical irri- tant to the walls of the stamach and bowels and cases are on record where it accumulated in the intestines, causing death by inflammation or peritonitis.
 Dr. Harlandson recommends as the safest and surest cure for sour stomach (a'cid dyspepsia) an excellent prepara- tion sold by druggists under the name of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets. These tablets are large 20 gIlain lozenges, very pleasant to taste and contain the nat ural acids, ,peptonas ard digestive ele- ments essential to good digestion. and when taken after meals they digest the food perfectly and promptly before it has time to ferment, sour and poison the blood and nervous system.
 Dr. Wuerth states that he invariably uses Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets in all cases of stomach Arrangements and finds them a certain cure not only for sour stomach but by promptly digest ing the food they create a healthy ap- petite, increase flesh and strengthen the aetion of the hslart and liver. They are not aathartic, but intended only for stomach diseases and weakness and win be found reliable in any stomach trouble except cancer of the stomach. All druggists sell Stuart's Dyspepsia. Tablets at 90 cents per package.

 Montgomery, Oct. Estate Examiner Foster has filed the following report of his examination of the affairs of the of flee of the late County Tax Collector Mitchell, of I4auds.dale county:
 q have, agreeable to your orders. ex- amined the books papers and accounts of the late " T. Mitchell, tax collector of Lauderdale county, Ala, from 1892 to 1897, inclusive.
 T find all money collected by him for ths use of the state duly reported and paid into the treasury except the taxes on a raise by the board of equali- zation of $2.OO5 dollars for the year 1896, this raise. by an error of the assessor was charged to MT. Mitchell as $205. He is therefore due the state and county the taxes on the difference between their valuation which, with interest to date added, amounts to $192S, of which SHOP is due the state and $S.26 is due the county.
 ''I further find that at the time of Mr. Mitchell's death he had not settled in full with the county; in fact there is a balance of s46.1O still due on the taxes of 1896.
 ."The county officials were, of course, aware of this matter and informed me that the amount will be shortly paid in full"
 MT. Mitchell was ill for many months before his death and his failure to close his accounts up to date was due, it is stated, to this cause. The money is in the bank to his account, and will be paid over to the county as soon as his executor feels authorized to do so.
