Colonel Childress, which appeared in The
Post of this morning, The success OF the

in December than the Texas coast country
The suggestion of a Pioneers Day is ono
which should be carried out to the full ex-
tent.
Houston is the principal railroad center

Resolved, That, therefore, and for the
further object herein referred to. this meet
ing commends the memoir most cordially
to all Confederate Veteran camps as be-
ing worthy OF place in their archives. to
De read by their children and thiljren's

rest way, as well as that most accountable

DANGER IN SODA.
serious Results Sometime Follow
Its Excessive Use.

Common soda Ia 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, u habit
which thousands of people practice almost
daily, and one which is fraught with dan
ger, moreover. the soda only gives tenn
porary relief and in the end the stomach
trouble gets worse and worse.
The soda acts aB mechanical irritant
to the walls of the stomach and bowels
and cases are on record where 1t accumu-
lated in tho intestineS, causing death by
inflammation or peritonitis.
Dr. HarlandsCn recommends as the safest
and surost cure for sour stomach (acid
dyspepsia) an excellent preparation sold
by druggists under the name of Stuarts
Dyspepsia Tablets. These tablets are large
20 grain lozenges, very pleasant to taste
and contain tho natural acids, peptones
and digestive elements essential to good
digestion, and when taken after meals
lhey digest the food perfectly and promptly
before 1T has time to fermeut, sour and
poison the blood and nervous system.
DR.. Wuerih states that he invariably
uses Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets In all
cases OF stomach arrangements ana finds
them certain cure not only for sour stom-
ach. but by promptly digesting the food
they create healthy appetite Increase
flesh and strengthen the action OF the
heart and liver. They are not cathartic
but intended only for stomach diseases
and weakness and will be found reliable
In any stomach trouble except cancer OF
the stomach. All druggists sell Stuart's
Dyspepsia Tablets at 90 cents per pack
age.

stomach weakness and their cure mailed
