Small precautions often prevent great
mischiefs. DeWitt's Little Early Risers
are very small pills in size, but are most
effective in preventing the most serious
forms of liver and stomach troubles.
They cure constipation and headache
and regulate the bowels.

G CASE DECIDED.


This morning Judge Stotts rendered
a decision in the matter of the compen>
sation of w. 4. Robins, who was guar
dian of Mrs. Maggie for three and one
half years. The court decided that for
the first two years of the guardianship
MI. Robins services were worth 81. 900
a year, as he had much to do and the
estate was very vexatious to manage.
After that time, however, the court de-
cided that the estate was not so diff
cult to look after and the compensa-
ton for the remaining one and one-halt
years vas placed at 81. 800 a year. In
his report Mr.. Robins claimed 81, 900 a
year for the entire time of his guar
dianship. He was allowed by Judge
Scott $4,000 on his salary at the rate
of 1000 a year. But the present dec!s-
ion allows him that salary for the first
two years only.
At the present time there is due Mr..
Robins at the ratio fixed by the court,
SO 800, which was ordered paid. In re.
gard to Mrs. Nagel's property, the bust
ness was settled by Judge Stotts' decis-
ion. Mr.. Robins was discharged as
guardian and Mrs. Nagle' property
transferred to her name.-Sun-Leader.

The game which will be played on
the university campus next Saturday
promises to be one Of the most interest
ing ever witnessed in this city. The
Capital Athletic club Of Cheyenne
the championship Of the state;
by what right no one seems to know;
and yet they challenge the second elev,
Ell of the state university and insist
upon the first eleven keeping their
hands off. If they are the champions Of
the State of Wyoming they should not
bar any players or team within its
borders. But first eleven or second
eleven, The Republican proposes to pin
It's faith to the university boys and
neXt Saturday will find us roofing for
the second eleven. The boys are made
of good stuff and have had pretty fair
training, hence a good game may be
looked for.
The capital team is the same team
that defeated the Fort Russell boys last
week. and the glory of that victory has
excited them into the belief that they
can just clean up everything upon Wy

THEY RIDICULE 1T.
MANY PEOPLE RIDICULE THE
IDEA OF AN ABSOLUTE CURE
FOR DYSPEPSIA AND
STOMACH TROUBLES.
Ridicule, However, is Not Argumen,
and Facts are Stubborn Things.

Stomach troubles are so commo and
in many cases are so obstinate to cure
that people are apt to look with sus-
picion On any remedy claiming to be
a radical, permanent cure for dyspepsia
and Indigestion. Many such pride
themselves on their acuteness in never
being h~umbugged, especially on med
icines.
This fear OF being humbugged may
be carried too far; SO far, in fact, that
many persons suffer for years with
weak digestion rather than risk a
little time and money in faithfully
testing the claims of a preparation so
reliable and universally used as Stuart's
Dyspepsia Tablets.
Now Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are
vastly different in one important res.
pect from ordinary proprietary medi-
cines for the reason that they are not
4 secret patent medicine, no secret is
made Of their ingredients, but analysis
shows them to contain the natural di>
s~estive ferments, pure aseptic pepsin,
She digestive acids, Golden Seal, bis
muth, hydrastic and nux. They are
not cathartic, neither do they act pow
erfully on any organ, but they cure in
digestion on the common sense plan
If digesting the food eaten promptly,
thoroughly before it has time to fer
ment, SOU and cause the mischief.
This is the only secret Of their sue
cess.
Cathartic pills never have and never
can cure Indigestion and stomach
troubles because they act entirely upon
The bowels, whereas the whole trouble
s really in the stomach.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets, taken az
ter meals, digest the food. That is all
here is to it. Food not digested or
half digested is poison as 1t 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 every
where at so cents per package. Address
Stuart Co.. Marshall, Mich, for book on
stomach diseases or ask your druggist
for it.

profit, and that's the closing chapter of
my part of the story"
These statements, coming from the
principals in the December wheat deals,
have caused much comment in board of
trade circles. Will Joseph Letter make
profit in the round 1000, 900 bushels of
wheat which have been placed in his
hands by the provision man? is now the
question. The report is going the rounds
that the whole affair was productive of
results indicating a big Armour-Leiter
combine. In many minds this rumor
was given credence. The manipulation
of the local market by Letters agents
pulling the wires from the Liverpool
end was recited over and over This
idea howeevr is ridiculed by the major
ity of traders. Some members of the
board say that Letter has secured 5,000,-
900 bushels of the cereal. Others place
the figures as high as 100000, while the
more conservative are willing to admit
that half the latter amount is nearer the
correct estimate.
Mr. Letter assrts that just so much
Of this will go abroad as the foreign mar
ket calls for, if they pay him his price"
Some folks on the board think l can't
transport grain eastward by rail with
out loos, do they?" said Mr. Letter.
well, possibly they can't, but I am
willing to play out my end of the game
along my own lines, and I may differ

Thus, with choice terseness, does P.

the closing days of one Of the biggest
wheat deals that has marked the history
of the board of trade.
Joseph Letter, his opponent, is just as
calm and confident in his expressions as
