good wholesome food and use the tablets
before and after each meal and the result
will be that the food will be digested no
matter how bad your dyspepsia may be,
because as before stated, the tablets will
digest the food even if the stomach is
wholly inactive. To illustrate our mean
ing plainly, if you take 1,S0O grains Of
meat, eggs or ordinary food and place it
in temperature of IS degrees, and put
with it one of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets
it will digest the meat or eggs almost as
perfectly as if the meat was enclosed
within the stomach.
The stomach may be ever so weak yet
these tablets will perform the work of
digestion and the body and brain will be
properly nourished and at the same time
a radical, lasting cure of dyspepsia will
be made because the much abused stomach
will be given, to some extent, much
needed rest. Your druggist will tell you
that of the many remedies advertised to
cure dyspepsia none of them has given so
complete and general satisfaction as
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets and not least
in Importance in these hard times is the
fact that they are also the cheapest and
give the most good for the least money.

CHURCH NOTICES.
ILLINOIS CONVENTION.

Official Notice.-AnnuaI Session at Earl
Vile, Sept. $3.50.
The Sixtieth Annual Session OF the
Illinois Universslist Convention will be
held at Earlville. September 2Sth. 10Th
and 30th. 1897.
Each parish is entitled to two lay del
egates and for every twenty five families
above the first twenty-five contributing
to parish expenses, an additional lay
delegate. No parish should fail to elect
delegates and parishes should be care
full to select those who will attend the
session.
The meeting this year will be more
han usually important. Besides the
questions of local interest to the church
delegates will be chosen to represent
Illinois in the biennial session of the
General Convention to be held in Chi
cago in October.
Several questions demanding the best
thought of the ablest men in the church
will be up for consideration in the ses-
sion of the General Convention.
Universaliets of Illinois must first
consider these questions in their state
convention. A large attendance will
add to the interest, enthusiasm and i'm.
portance of the occasion. An attend
ance of one hundred. who pay full fare
going, will make it possible to secure
excursion rates for the return.
In view of these considerations and
of the fact that this is TO be the Sixtieth
Annual Session there should be large
and enthusiastic gathering.
1t is expected that the annual session
of the Young Peoples Christian Union
will be held in connection with the con-
vention.
The Universalist Women's Associa-
ton of Illinois will also hold it's annual
meeting some time during the session
1t is the duty of delegates to attend.
and they will not neglect their duty.
Universalists not delegates are urged to
come and see and hear. Earlville is on
the main line of the G. B. & @. r. r., is
easily accessible, and the people there
invite and expect large attendance.

The time is past when it is necessary to
go abroad for musical educ ition, except
as foreign study shall be added to the
completion of thorough foundation work
at home. This is evidenced by the not
able successes that have been achieved
abroad during the past year by the grad
yates of the New Engla Conservatory
OF Music, which prove beyond question
the value of the instruction given by this
institution.
The American musician should receive
his Training at home. Then if he
wishes the seal of foreign commentator,
he may reasonably expect to secure 1t on
account of the thorough preparation that
he has received, which is so much better
adapted to his needs than similar work
abroad could possibly be-
The engagement of George w. Chad
wick as musical director of the New Eng
land Conservatory is fitting recognition
of American musicianship. That Ameri-
cas- greatest composer should control the
musical destiny of it's most renowned Con-
servatory is a condition the American
people will be quick to appreciate

and have at the same time attended to
other duties. believe any energetic per-
son can do equally as well, as l have had
very little experience. The Dish Washer
is just lovely, and every family wants one
which makes selling very easy. 1 do no
canvassing. People hear about the Dish
Washer, and come or send for one. 1t is
strange that a good, cheap washer has
never before been put on the market.
The Iron City Dish Washer fills this bill.
With it you can wash and dry the dishes
for family of ten in two minutes with
out wetting the hands. AS soon as peo-
pie see the washer work they want one
You can make more money and make it
quicker than with any other household
article on the market. 1 feel convinced
that any lady or gentleman can make from
$40 to $l4 per day around home. My sis

ERNEST HENDRICK.

ERNEST HENDRICK was born in Bowling
Green, Missouri, November a. 1873 De-
parted this life April 10, 1897, at the age
of 90 years, months, and 16 days. He
was the eldest of two sons born to John
and Elizabeth Hendrick, who are members
of the Universalist Church at Ashley, Mo.
Their hearts are very much wrapped up
in their children, and this was great be-
reavement to them. Life to them is sad
dened, but the heavenly life richer with
this new treasure added to it. May their
hearts find comfort in this faith. Ernest
was married to Miss Jessie A. Barnes of
Topeka, Kansas, April 10, 1897 There was
given them but four brief, blissful months
of married life; and to her, there now re-
mains a sacred memory, and the hope of
future immortal companionship.
He had chosen the law for his profess
sion, and had just entered upon his life
stricken down with that dread disease,
the Typhoid fever. His illness was but
bief, and then he passed over with
words of deep affection for all who were
near and dear to him. His body was
brought to Bowling Green for interment,
and there at the old home in the presence
of a very large concourse of relatives and
friends, and neighbors, was held the last
services, which were conducted by Rev
John Hughes
Young Ernest Hendrick was choice
and noble character, and well beloved by
all classes both at Bowling Green, and in
the new home at St. Joseph, where he
had settled for the practice of his profess
sion. He had the happy faculty of win
hing the respect and affection of all with
whom he came in contact, and seldom do
we see more marked expressions of love
and esteem for him In his youth he be-
me a member of the Episcopal church
in Louisiana, Mo. and in respect for that
the Episcopal burial service was read at
his grave. III.
