large number of ''Watchers. There
have been but few larger audiences of
late years, filling all the seats but a
few of those near the pulpit. The bell
toled out the old year solemnly, and as
the dial passed the hour of twelve, the
sexton rang in the new year jOyously.
With the coming and going of
Christmas and the glad spirit which
has pervaded society, many have not
turned kindly sympathetic ear to the
poor and those shut in by sickness and
i'll health, and some might think they
had almost been forgotten. Not so.
The kind and keeping hands of our
Kings Daughters, worthy and esti-
mable organization, were full of mis-
siOnary work during the holidays and
in these rounds about town, many sad
hearts were filled with Christmas
cheers and gladness. That "charity
begins at home" is fully shown, when
over 150 were remembered The poor
children about town were given each a
box of candy and to the older ones pre-
visions and the like. TO the "Shut
ins," flowers and fruits were distribu-
ted. 1t was indeed gracious act and
one highly commendable to this band
of missionary workers.

necessary to follow fundamental princi-

done.

THEY RIDICULE IT
MANY PEOPLE RIDICULE THE IDEA
OF AN ABSOLUTE CURE FOR
DYSPEPSIA AND STOMACH
TPOtIRI Eo
Rid.cuIe, However, is Not Argument and
Facts are Stubborn Things.

| Stomach troubles are SO common and
IN many cases SO obstinate to cure tina;
| people are apt 10 look with suspicion on
any remedy claimed TO De radical, per-
manent cure for dyspepsia and indiges-
| ton. Many such pride themselves on
their acuteness in never being humoug-
ged, especially on medicines.
This fear of being hunfbugged may be
carried too far; so far, in fact, that many
persons suffer for years with weak diges-
ton rather than risk little time and
money in faithfully testing the claims of
preparation so reliable and universally
used as Stnart's Dyspepsia Tablets.
Now Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are
vastly different in one important respect
from ordinary proprietary medicines for
the reason that they are not secret
patent medicine; no secret is made Of
their ingredients, but analysis shows
them to contain the natural digestive
ferments, pure aseptic pepsin, the digest
i've acids, Golden Seal, bismuth. bydcastis
and nuX. They are not cathartic, neither
do they act powerfully on any organ,
but they cure Indigestion on the common
sense plan Of digesting the food eaten
promptly, thoroughly before it has time
10 ferment, sour and cause the mischief.
This is the only secret Of their success.
Cathartic pills never have and never
can cure Indigestion and stomach trou-
Dle5 because they act entirely upon the
bowels, whereas the whole trouble is
really in the stomach.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets, taken after
meals, digest the food. That is all there
is 10 il. Food not digested or half di-
gested is poison as it creates gas, acidity,
headaches, palpitation of the heart, loss
of flesh and appetite, and many other
troubles which are often called by some
other name.
They are sold by druggists everywhere
at 90 cents per package. Address Stuart
Co., Marshall, Mich, for book on stom-
ach diseases or ask your druggist for it

erty in order to avoid. law suit.
Paddy told DR.. Cave that Dawson fell
the first shot and Dawson says thnt
both shots were fired to mis- back. He
said that he could think Of no earthly
reason why Shea should shoot him, and
that he would like to die and get rio
of his misery. While Dawson was talk
ing Mrs. Shea came in and he called On
her to prove that he never said that he
intended to kill Paddy Shea, and she
answered that ne mad said so withour
cause. AIRS. Shea came with some lem
onade and other refreshments and Daw-
son would talk no more.

Policeman Reeder. The witnesses for
the prosecution took up the greater part
Of the day. in fact no testimony was in
