THEY RIDICULE 1T.
MANY PEOPLE RlDlcuLe THE IDEA
OF AN ABSOLUTE CURE FOR
DYSPEPSl' AND STOMACH
TROUBLES

Stomach troubles are so common and
in many cases so obstinate to cure
that people are apt to look with sus-
picion on any remedy claiming to be
radical, permanent cure for dyspepsia
and indigestion. Many such pride
themselves on their acuteness in never
being humbugged, especially on medi-
cines.
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 little
time and money in faithfully testing
the claims of a preparation so reliable
and universally used as Stuarts 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 ana
lysis shows them to contain the natur-
al digestive ferments, pure aseptic
pepsin, the digestive acids Golden
Seal, bismuth hydrastis and nux.
They are not cathartic, neither do they
act powerfully on any organ, but they
cure indigestion on the common sense
plan Of dgesting the food eaten
promptly. thoroughly before 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
troubles because they act entirely upon
the bowels. whereas the whole trouble
is really in the stomach
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets, taken af-
ter meals, digest the food. That Is all
there is to it. Food not digested or
half digested is poison, as 1t 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 80 cents per package. Ad-
dress Stuart Co., Marshall, Mich, for
book on stomach disease or ask your
druggist for it.

BEAUTY IN MATURITY,
A Woman Is at Her Best Lnte in Life.
Some Notable Examples.

From the Chicago Chronicle.
The physical beauty Of women should
last, growing more and more mellow,
until the end. That the beauty of wo-
men, like that of men, should be de-
termlned from the standpoint of ad-
Nanclng maturity cannot be disputed.
1t is absurd to claim that the ripe,
rich beauty of forty is less attractive
than the budding immaturity of sweet
sixteen. When women live in harmony
with natures laws each stage of life
las its own charm. The fullness of
beauty does not reach it's zenith under
the age OF. thirty-five or forty Helen of
Troy comes upon the stage at the age
of forty. Aspasia was thirty-six when
married to Pericles, and she was a bril-
liant figure thirty years thereafter.
Cleopatra was past thirty years when
she met Antony. Diane de Poictiers
was thirty-siX when she won the heart
Of Henry II. The king was half her
age, but his devotion never changed
Anne of Austria was thirty eight when
described as the most beautiful wo-
man in Europe. Nine. De Maintenon
was fortY-three when united to Louis,
and Catharine of Russia was thirty
three when she seized the throne she
occupied for thirtyfive years.
Mile. Mar was most beautiful at
forty-five, and Nine. Recamier be-
tween the ages of thirty-five and fifty
five The most lasting and intensr
passion is not inspired by two-decade
beauties. The old saw about sweet six
teen is exploded by the truer know
ledge that the highest beauty does nos
dwell in immaturty. For beauty does
not mean alone the fashion of form and
coloring as found in the waXen doll
The dew of youth and a compleXlo,
.of roses are admirable for that period
but a woman's best and richest years
are from thrty-siX to forty. 1t is al
arrant error for any woman to regard
herself as passe at any age, if she
grows old gracefully.

THE MARKETS.
Wall Street Review.

New York, Nov. 16.-Today was an
other remarkably dull day on the stock
exchange. The only spurts of activity
were due to manipulative manouvres
on the part of the professional traders.
These were notable manifest in Con-
solidated Gas. which jumped up and
down the price scale a point at time
all day, but always at a level below
last nights price. The decline extend
to aja points at one time, but cover
Ing at the close left the stocks net loss
only fractional. The weakness of the
stock and of other local gas stocks
is due to fears of a failure OF plans
alleged TO have been in contemplation
for the amalgamation of local gas
companies, others of which were weak
In sympathy with Consolidated Gas.
Sugar continued to lead the market
in point of activity and its strength
during the day helped the general
strength of the market. Total sales
were 19j3O0 shares.
