The trocha IS strongly fortified line

Mr. Charles Posion. OF Savage. s.. G.
confirms what has been said by a lady Of
Sumter as to the virtues OF horaN for the
protection Of meat from the attacks OF
dies. etc. Having noticed, he says. MT.

that score. he submits the following APP
proved recipe for the information or all
concerned:
"Vhou the meat y ready 20 hang up,

method. and are never troubled with

Dee hot or cold. and just how strong it

point. however IS that This witness con-
firms the testimony of our fair Sumter

manhood ignores the eenuest and most
beautiful graces Of her sex; and. usurpns
the place Of the man, wastes her own
proper dominion and lightens her hold
on the affection and service OF man. A
mannish woman IS as m0nstrous a thing
as u womanish man.
The lady-love was the star of knight
hood. What the Virgin Mary ana tho
holy women Of the early Church have
done for the world. God only can est-
mate. We know that the purity and
dignity of mans love for woman have
advanced with advancing civilization,
and as n mans love f., so IS he. Degrade
and sensualize his love, and You imDrute
him. Lessen his sacred reverence for
woman, and you tighten his whole char
acter. 1t was one of our great philoso-
piers, as well as poets, who gave us
those beautiful lines:
"An thoughts, all passions, all delights.
Whatever stirs this mortal frame,
Are all but ministers Of love-
And feed his sacred frame"
Don Qulxote was the soul Of knight
hood; his being was saturated with ro-
nance, with mighty endeavor, with grand
achievement, and with human glory The
virus Of personal ambition mingled with
his magnanimity, and made him do all
sorts OF absurd things. Personal vanity
will make fool of any man who enter
tains and INDUCES It. His history IS
looking-glass for the human mind. The
old man was perfectly right in his de-
votion 10 womanhoOd, no knight was ever
more gallant. But Undertaking his gall
lantry he made his mistake. There was
a spark of honest human love in the
choice OF his Dulcinca. She had been his
sweetheart I'm days gone by. and the
ashes Of his early love were still smoul-
dering. The light Of that love kndled
into the fame Of his knightly devotion.
He gave himself up. heart and soul and
body, TO the service OF an ideal. His ideal
was an idol the work OF his poisoned and
crazed Imagination, favored and colored,
more or less, by loves young dream. a
life of pure warm, and Heaven-blessed

Nature has but one way TO increase
flesh. strength, and yg0r OF nina and
body. and that IS through the stomach
by wholesome food well digc5ted. There
Is no reason or common sense IN any
other method whatever.
People are thin. run down, nervous,
pale. and shaky in their nerves, simply
because their stomachs are weak.
They may not think they have dyspep-
STA, but the fact remains that they 90
not eat enough food. or what they eat is
not quickly and properly dige5ted os it
should be-
Or. Harlandson says the reason IS be-
cause the stomach lacks certain dige5-
tive acils and pcptOncs, and deficient
secretion OF gastric juice.
Natures remedy in such cases is TO
supply what the weak stomach lacks.
There are several good preparations
which will do this. but none so readily
as Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets, which are
designed especially for an stomach trou-
blos. and which cure all digestive weak
ness on the common-scnse plan OF fur
nishing the digestive principles which the
stomach lacks.
Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets give perfect
digestion. First effect is to increase the
appetite. and increased vigor, added flesh
pure blood. and strength Of nerve and
muscle is the perfectly natural result.
stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets IS the
safest tonic known. and win cure any
form Of stomach trouble except cancer
