A Penalty Clause Added.

A section, numbered thirteen, was added
TO article thirteen, of the police regulations,

provides that any person or persons violat-
ing any Of the provisions Of the article,
shall, on conviction thereof in the police
court, be punished by fine of not less

CATARRH OF THE STOMACH.
A Pleasant, Simple, But Safe and
Effectual Cure for It

Effectual Cure for 1t.
Catarrh of the stomach has long been
considered the next thing to incurable.
The usual symptoms are full or bloatiDg
sensation after eating, accompanied some
times with sour or watery rfsings, for
nation of gases, causing pres sure on the
heart and lungs and difficult brea thing;
headaches, tickle appetite, nervousness and
a general played out, languid feeling.
There is often a foul taste in the mouth,
coated tongue, and if the interior of the
stomach could be seen il would show
Shiny. infiamed condition.
The cure for this common and obstinate
trouble is found in Il trea tment which
causes the food to be readily, thoroughly
digested before it has time to ferment and
irritate the delicate mucous surfaces of
tile stomach. To secure prompt and
healthy digestion is the one necessary
thing to do, and when normal digestion is
secured the catarrhal condition will have
disappeared.
According to DR.. Harlanson the safest
and best trea tment is TO use after each
meal a tablet, composed of Diastase, Asep-
tic Pepsn, little NUx, Golden Seal and
fruit acids These tablets can now be
found at all drug stores under the name
of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets, and not be-
ing a patent medicine can be used 18th
perfect safety and assurance that healthy
appetite and thorough digestion will follow
their regular use after meals.
Mr. n. j. Booher, of 2T10 Dearborn St,
Chicago, III, writes: "Catarrh IS q local
condition resulting from neglected cold
in the head, whereby the lining mem
brane of the nose becomes inflamed and
the poisonous discharge therefrom passing
backward into the throat reaches the
stomach, thus producing catarrh Of the

for me for three years for catarrh of
stomach without cure, but today l am the

feeling. 1 have found flesh, appetite and

In my visits among the people in Tas-

many Testimonies TO the truihfuness Of
the work OF God. Many received the
message with kindness, inviting us to
call again. travelled some with Elders
vii lam Harvey and {. A Orme, on my
long journeys and we were made well
come in almost every town we visited.
When we were not able TO get assist
ance from the people OF the parishs S,
we visited the min sters and in almost
every instance were received by them.
In some instances we would be amused,
at the way these men would turn the
scriptures; they would be allowed TO go
certain pace without interruption, then
they would be asked questions regard
| ing some OF the statements made; they
would make some sort Of an answer 10
hide up the truth, then the pure testi-
mony would be given them. Some
asked II we were not afraid to meet
these men, and they were told that we
reJoiced when we had a meeting with
them. We were gwen shelter by every
| minister, but one, whom we asked,
They all were very anxious to know how
long we were going to be in town, and
what we intended Going. In some in
stances we were only passing through
the place, and needed shelter as nigh
overlook us; they were much relieved
when we told them we were not going
to do anything as yet, but promised
