THEY RIDICULE IT.
Many People Ridicule the idea of
an Absolute Cure for Dyspepsia.
RfdfcuAe, However, Is Not ArSumem emit,
and Facts are Stubborn Things.

Stomach troubles are so common, and
in many cases SO obstinate to cure, that
people are apt to look with suspicion on
any remedy claiming to be a radical
permanent cure for dyspepsia, and indf-
geStion. Many such pride themselves
on their acuteness IN never being hum
plugged, especially on medicines.
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 DyS-
pepSia Tablets.
Now Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are
vastly different in one important re-
Spect from ordinary proprietary medi-
cines for the reason that they are not
a secret patent medicine-no secret is
made of their ingredients-but analysis
shows them to contain the natural di-
geStiVe fermentS, pure aSceptic pepSin,
the digestive acids, Golden Seal, bis
Tnuth, hydraStic and nux. They are
not cathartic, neither do they act pow
erful1y on any organ, but they cure in
digestion on the common sense plan of
digesting the food eaten thoroughly be-
fore it has time to 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-
bles, 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 to it. Food not digested, or
half digeSted 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 every
where at so cents per package. Ad-

GOOD DIGESTION.

The New Discovery, Sfuart's DyspeP

Many people suffer from dyspepsia

out of sorts, peevish, do not sleep Wen.
do not have a good, keen appetite, DO
not have the inclination and energy Tor
physical or mental work they once
had, but at the same time do not feel
any particular pain or distress in the
stomach. Yet all this is the result
of poor digestion, an insidious form or
Dyspepsia which can only be cured py
a remedy specially intended to CURE
it and make the digestive organs act
naturally and properly digest the 1000
eaten. Bitters, after-dinner pills ana
nerve tonicS will never help the trou-
BILE; THEY DON'T REACH IT. The
new medical discovery DOES. It IS
called Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets and
ton. It CURES because it thoroughly
digests all wholesome food taken into
the stomach. WHETHER THE STOM-
ACH IS IN GOOD WORKING ORDER
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets, by digest
ing the food instead of making the
worn out stomach do all the work,
gives it much needed REST and
CURE of dyspepsia is the natural re-
suit.
When you are nervous, run down and
SleepleSS, don't make the common mis-
take of suppoSing your nervous system
needs treatment and fill your stomach
with powerful nerve tonics which make
you feel good for a little while, only to
fall back farther than ever.
Your nerves are all right, but they
are STARVED, they want FOOD.
Nourish them with wholesome, every
day food and PLENTY of it, well di-
gested, and you can laugh at nerve
tonics and medicine.
But the nerves will not be nourished
from weak, abused stomach, but when
the digestion has been made perfect by
the use of this great remedy all nerv-
Gus symptoms disappear.
Who ever heard of a, man or woman
blessed with a vigorous digestion and
good appetite being trouble with their
NERVES?
Good digestion means a strong nerv-
Gus system, abundance of energy and
capacity to enjoy the good things OF
life.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets will GER
tainly set your stomach and digestive
organs right; they can't help but do it,
because they nourish the body by di>
costing the food eaten and rest the
stomach.
You get NOURISHMENT and
REST at one and the SAME time, and
that is all the worn-out dyspeptio
NEEDS to build him up and give new
life to every organ and an added zest
to every pleasure.

GOING TO BED hungry
It Is All Wrong, and Man Is the
Only Creature That Does It.

The complete emptiness of the stom-
ach during sleep adds greatly to the
amount of emaciation, s1eeplessness ana
general weakness SO often met with.
There is perpetual change of tissues in
the body, sleeping or waking, and the
supply of nourishment ought to be
somewhat continuous and food taken
just before retiring adds more tissue
than is destroyed and increased weight
and vigor is the result. DR.. W. T. Cat
hell says: 'Au animals except man eat
before sleep and there is no reason in
nature why man should form the excep-
ton to the rule
If people who are thin, nervous, and
sleepless would take light lunch OF
bread and milk or oatmeal and cEea m
and at same time take a safe, harmless
stomach remedy like Stuart's Dyspepsia
Tablets in order to aid the stomach in
digeSting it, the result VIII De a sur

general vigor. The only drawback has
been that thin, nervous, dyspeptlc peo-
pie cannot digest and assimilate whole
some food at night or any other time.
For such it is absolutely necessary to
use Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets, because
they will digest the food, no matter now
weak the stomach may be- nourishipg
the body and resting the stomach at the

DR.. Stevenson says: II depend almost
entirely upon Stuart's Dyspepsia Tab
lets in treating indigestion, because it
is not a quack nostrum, and I know just
what they contain, combination or
vegetable essences, pure pepsin and fruit
salts, and they cure Dyspepsia and

DANGER IN SODA.

Hts ExcesSiv We Use.
Common soda is all right in its place

for cooking and washing purposes, but
it was never intended for a medicine,
and people who use it as such will some
day regret 1t.
We refer to the common use of soda

habit which thousands of people prac-
tice almost daily, and one which is

The soda acts as a mechanical irri-

ORIENTAL WOMEN WORKERS
None Can Surpass Them in Making
Tapestries and Carpets

The somewhat popular conception Of
the Oriental woman Is rather erroneous.
1t Is that of one who Is destined to life
Of utter luxury. Yet the simple truth
is that the large majority Of women in
the east work quite as hard for their
daily bread as do their sisters in the
west-aye, even harder, for, as a rule,
married women in the west are support
ed by their husbands, whereas, in the
east, married women are, as a rule, con-
strained to support, not only themselves.
but also their husbands and children.
This statement applies especially to
the thousands Of women in Turkey, Per-
sia and other countries of the Orient,
who make living as weavers. The
whole civilized world appreciates their
handiwork, for none can match them
in making tapestries, carpets and other
gorgeous products Of the loom. This is
the age OF machinery. but no machine
has yet been invented which can do the
marvellous work of these Oriental weav-
efs. Yet many OF these women work for
pitiful wages. After cleaning and pre-
pairing the wool and shaping it into q
lovely piece of tapestry, all they receive
is the equivalent OF from shillings to
shillings a week. The woman who can
| earn francs is considered Croesus,
and her husband esteems her SO much
that he never dreams of beating her.
The money is always paid to the hus-
band, and he invariably appropriates 1t.
They are very womanly, these weav-
ers. OF gossip they are fond, and while
| they are at work their tongues are con-
stantly going. Perhaps this is one rea-
son why they have so obstinately re-
fused to herd together in factories. where
the constant whirr of machinery. not to
speak of the surveillance OF a foreman.
would very probably compel them to
keep silent. In order to fashion first
class carpet or piece Of tapestry. the
weaver must not only have memory
which will prevent her from making the
slightest mistake while copying the de-
sign, but she must also possess lively
imagination and thoroughly developed
artistic sense. For the first -class weav-
er does not copy. she creates. She in
vents her own designs, she combines the
various tones, she chooses the dyes anu
shades, and, finally. she obtains those
effects which seem so charming to us OF

with little cluster of pale blue ostrich
feathers. The bodice in this instance
should be principally of velvet over soft
folds of pale blue tulle, with feather
trimming in the same shade arranged
as epaulets and a cluster of feathers
at one side. If a sufficient quantity of
the velvet is not in a condition to make
the principal portion of the bodice, de-
signs in cream colored lace might be
applied on it, which would make the
dress look still more fashionable and
handsome.
Black velvet gowns are even mora
