The Best Place to Buy Groce
Reflections of a Bachelor.

When a woman really loves a man she
can never admit to herself that she is dis
appointed in him.
The enmity which an old maid has for
men in a married woman is generally di-
rected against the moths.
Women may point the finger of scorn at
man, but when it's woman they go up
close and poke her with it,
When girl wears a cheap dress, she al
ways let's on to the other girls that she
spends lot on what they don't see.
The average girl never gets more than
one chance to get married, because she's
always so afraid she won't get any more.

not touched a drop of liquol other than

IF any one thing is more gratifying
than another to me it is the real sim

the men under contract to engage in a

sole annoyance caused by the pubIi-
cation lies in the fact that I should be

DANGER IN SODA.
Serious Results Sometimes Follow It's
Excessive Use.

Excessive Use.
Common soda is all right in its place and
Indispensable in the kitchen and for cooking
and washing purposes, but it was never in
tended for 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, q ha bi
which thousands Of people practice almost
daily, and one which is fraught with danger;
moreover the soda only gives temporary re-
lief and in the end the stomach trouble gets
worse and worse.
The soda acts as a mechanical irritant TO
the walls o the stomach and bowels and
cases are on record where It accumulated in
the intestines causing death by inhamma-
ton or peritonitis.
Dr. Harlandson recommends as the safest
and surest cure four sour stomach (aoid dys-
pepsia) an excellent preparation sold by drug
gsts under the name Of Stuart's Dyspepsia
Tablets. These tablets are large 20 grain
lozenges, very pleasant TO taste and contain
the natural acids, peptones, and digestive
elements essential to good digestion, and
when taken after meals they digest the food
perfectly and promptly before it has time to
terment sour and poison the blood and
nervous system.
DR., Wuerth states that he invariably uses
Smart's Dyspepsia Tablets in all cases OF
stomach arrangements and finds them Ger
tain cure not only for sour stomach but by
promptly digesting the food they create a
healthy appetite, increase flesh and strength
en- 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
