DANGER IN SODA.
Serious Results Sometimes Fol-
low 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 medicine,
and people who use 1t 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 is
fraught with danger; moreover, the
soda only gives temporary relief, and
in the end the stomach trouble gets
worse and worse.
The soda acts as a mechanical lrri-
tant to the walls of the stomach and
bowels, and cases are on record where
1t accumulated In the inteetines caus-
ing death by Inflammation or portion
tits.
DR.. Harlandson recommends as the
safest and surest cure for sour stom-
ach (acid dyspepsia) an excellent pre-
paration sold by druggists under the
name of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets.
These tablets are large 20 grains loz-
enges, very pleasant to taste and con-
tain the natural acids, peptones and d.
gestive elements essential to good d.
gestion, 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
stomach, but by promptly digesting the
food they create healthy appetite,
increase flesh and strengthen the &C
ton of the heart and liver. They are
not a cathartic, but intended only for
stomach diseases and weaknesses, and
will be found reliable in any stomach
trouble except cancer of the stomach.

er a dnigent inquiry among the cotton men
along Bay street yesterday nothing could
be learned of the proposed movement.
Several of the factors hooted a the. idea
of doing business at Brunswick 1t is said
that there is no cotton offered for sale at
that port, therefore there is no field for
buyers there. Neither is there any induce

Savannah exporters have frequently in
past seasons, bought blocks of cotton, in
the interior and had it shipped through
Brunswick when they could set advan-
tageous freight rates to desired foreign
ports, but an Office in Brunswick would
not be an advantage when they can do the
same business at Savannah without ad-
