DANGER IN SODA.
Serious Results Som metimes Follow
Its Excessive Use.

Common soda is all right in its place
ana indispensable in the kitchen and
for cooking and washing purposes but
it was never intended for a medicine
and people who use it as such will some
day regret it.
We refer to the common use of soda
to relieve heartburn or sour stomach a
ha bit which thousands of people prac-
tice 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 irri-
tant to the walls of the stomach and
bowels and cases are on record where it
accumulated in the intestines, causing
death by Inflammation or peritOnitis.
DR.. HarlandSOn recommends as the
safest and surest cure for sour stomach
(acid dyspepsia) an excellent prepara-
tion sold by druggists under the name
of StuarTS Dyspepsia Ia bIetS. These
tablets are large 20 grain lOZenges. very
pleasant to taste and contain the nat
ural acids, peptCnes and digestive ele-
ments essential to good digestion. 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 invaria bly,
uses Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets in all
cases of stomach arrangements and
finds them a certain cure not only for
sour stomach, but by promptly digest
ing the food they create a healthy ap-
petite, increase flesh and strengthen
the action of the heart and liver They
are not a cathartic, but intended only
for stomach diseases and weakness
and will be found reliable in any stOm-
ach trouble except cancer of the stom-
ach All druggists sell Stuart's Dys-
pepsia Tablets at scots. per package

Sends "a Letter to the Governor.

u the
LINCOLN, May 29.-(Special Telegram.)-
The Board of Public Lands and Buildings
this evening made a report to the governor
of its findings in the DR.. Fall case. In its
letter to the governor the board says: Our
apology for troubling you in this matter
must be found in the fact that in a few
weeks you, by virtue Of the law passed last
winter, will be in charge OF the management
of this institution, and the board will cease
TO have anything to do with it In that re-
spect." The report says: IN our oninion
the welfare of the institution, and that is
all we desire, demands that whatever execu-
tive action shall be taken in the matter shall
be taken by you and not by us" Then, after
a long review of the case. using 900 words
to recite what has already been before the
public, the board finally sums up the mat
ter as follows:
Our conclusion upon the whole case is
that he has repeatedly violated the law. al
most without exception disoDeyed the orders
Of the board, held its power and control over
the institute in contempt and that the best
interests OF the public service demand that
he be removed from his position as superin-
tendent."
The report is signed by all the members
Of the board.
