In the World of Art and Letters.

AS result of the development of our
public school system and the cheapenipg
OF books. there has grown up a large
class of men aud women who seek
broader education, or desire to extend
tkeS. knowledge along special lines.
: neir duties in life. or lack of means,
exclude them from the universities. The
Cosmopolitan Magazine has undertaken
the task of bringing liberal education, in
ITS broagest sense, within the reach of
of those who have the aspiration, but
are deprHed of the opportunity. roctor
Andrews, late of Brown University, has
undertaken the Presidency of the Co.'S
mopolitan's educational movement. The
work, thus began. is not intended to
take the place of regular university
work, but to supply gap in educational
facilities. Those who are really in search
of knowledge will fird direction and aid.
II can dc nothing for those who haye
not the desire to study. An intending
student sends to The Cosmopolitan, New
York, his name, occupation, previous
courses of study, studies desired to be
pursued, objects and purpose for which
course is designed, and the number of
hours, daily or weekly, study which can
be given. No charges of any kind will
be made to students.

FOR THE BABY.
A Hint to- Every Father
and Mother.

A Valuable Hint to- Every Father
and Mother.
There are two kinds of babies in the
world; the kind who have too little
nouriShment and the kind who have
too much.
The first kind of babies starve be-
cause their stomachS are too weak to
digest the amount of o. necessary
for their growth and healthful de-
velopment and the other kind are over
fed with the result that the delicate
stomach and intestines are infiamed,
and as every mother knows, thousands
of infants die yearly when warm
weather begins, from stomach and
bowel disorders.
Opiates, soothing syrups and cathar-
tics, however mild, are not what is
demanded. Go to the root of the
trouble, assist the child'S digestion.
give the little stomach the aid neces-
sary to thoroughly and promptly d.
geSt it's food and the little one will
thrive and grow and gladden. the
mothers heart.
To give perfect digestion to the
child it is only necessary to give in a
pleasant form the harmless digestives
contained in the well known tablets
sold in drug stores under the name of
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets. Stuart's
Tablets contain no so called drugs,
but are composed of pepsin, pure
aseptic, fruit acids, starch digestives
and are put up in loZenge form, with
sugar Of milk, very pleasant to the
taste and have been used for years
as the safest, best remedy for any
form of indigestion and stomach
troubles in adults, out recently many
remarkable cures have been made III
the cases of weakly babies who failed
to grow and thrive as they should.
~ Buffalo
who ~despaired of the life of her babe
was so delighted with the results from
giving the child these tablets that she
vent before the notary public of Erie
county, N. Y, and mad the following
affidavit:
Gentlemen-Stuart's Dyspepsia Tab
lets were recommended to me for nv
two months old baby, which was sick
and puny and the doctors said was
suffering from Indigestion. 1 took the
child to the hospital, but there found
no relief. A friend mentioned the
Stuart Tablets and I procured a box
from my druggists and used only the
large sweet lozenges in the box and
was delighted to find they were Just
the thing for my baby.
I feel justified in saying that Stuart's
Dyspepsia Tablets saved my child's
life. Mrs. w. T. Dethloff.
Subscribed and sworn to before me
this 18th day of April, 1897.
Henry Karis,
Notary Public in and for Erie County,
N. Y.
For babies, no matter how young or
delicate, the tablets will accomplish
wonders in increasing flesh, appetite
and growth. Use only the large sweet
tablets in every box. Full sized boxes
are sold by all druggists for 80 cents,
and no parent should neglect the use
of this safe remedy for all stomach
and bowel troubles if the child is all
ing in any way regarding it's food OF
assimilation
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets has been
known for years as the best
ton for all stomach troubles whether
in adults or infants.

attacked 1T. The people there ESCAPED
into the hills, where they hid all night
in the darkness. The Blanford place
was also looted and burned. The mob
then proceeded to the Catholic mis-
sion, but by this time the soldiers had
been summoned and they dispersed
the rioters. The next day five women
and Mr.. Bianford were taken away on
a boat.
