is 1T A TRIFLE ?
That Common Trouble, Acid Dys.
pepsia or Sour Stomach.
Now Recognized as a Cause of Serious
Disease.

Acid dyspepsia, commonly called neart-
burn or sour stomach, is Il form of indi-
gestion resulting from fermentation OF
the food, The stomach being too weak to
promptly digest It, the food remains until
fermentation begins, filling the stomach
with gas and bitter. sour, burning taste
in the mouth is often present. This con-
dtion soon becomes chronic and being an
every day occurrence Is given but little
attention. Because dyspepsia Is not i'm
mediately fatal. many people do nothing
for the trouble.
Within a recent period a remedy has
been discovered prepared solely to cure
dyspepsia and stomach troubles. 1t Is
known as Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets and
Is now becoming rapidly used and pre-
scribed as q radical cure for every form
OF dyspepsia.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets have been
placed before the public and are sold by
druggists everywhere at 80 cents per pack
age, 1t is prepared by the Stuart Chemi-
cal Co, Marshall, Mich, and while 1t

RAILROADS
Almost Monopolize the Atten-
ton of Vermont's Law
makers DIT Montpel-
ier Tuesday.
4 C. Y. REORGANIZATION BILL
Indebtedness of the Road Provided Tor
-BilIs Introduced incorporating Rut-
Nand Canadian Railroad Company
and ChampIuiu Construction
Company Probable Route
of Rutland Extenson.
Q'rom Our Staff Correspondent

Montpelier. oct. 25.--rhe gauntlet has
been thrown down. The unsecured cred
itcrs of the Central Vermont have appear
ed to show their hand and have shown it.
1t came as u surprise in the form of Il bill
introduced i'm the House this afternoon, Il
bill framed by Vermont lawyers and franz
cd In Ncrmonts interests and 1t seems
the general belief here Tonight that no
Ncrmontcrs will DE found opposing 1t. The
appearance of the bill enhances the gem
eral interest In the railroad fight, which
is now ruby preCipitated. 1t was the first
bin to appear this afternoon, and Orrico
Ballard Of Georgia was the man TO intro
duce it. 1t cannot be called exclusively Il
Vermont bill, because the National Bank
OF Redemption of Boston is Interested and
there are rumors that Ogdensburg and
Lake Champlain parties are not a little
concerned in the project.
In fact 1t now appears that the Central
Vermont property Is not the most undesir-
able IN the State and other people would
pc glad To get II on more favorable terms
,han those offered ly the Grand Trunk.
This new bill Is one that provides for
every dollar of Indebtedness or else puts
all creditors ON equal terms. 1t is not II
freeze OUT but proposes to open the
property to competitive bids in case 1t is
necessary to sell It under foreclosure pro-
cecdings. Another feature is that 1t pro-
poses to keep all lines from controlling
the road and making it for ever Il dis
tinct road with independent traffic ar
raugements.
Another interesting feature Is reversing
the rights Of those who have gained prior
ity in the accumulation by knowledge
gained by having been directors in the
management for years past To cpito-
miZc the bill-it is placing upon the Ner-
mont legislature the res possibility for
deciding between the interest of honest
creditors aud the interest of foreign
corporation which ignores the rights Of
large proportion of said creditors. There
are rumois that the Boston x Maine
would not allow the property to be Swal-
lowed up by the present holders of the
first mortgage bonds If the Legislature
would open the way but this has not ma
terialized in a definite proposal.
one thing seems certain and that Is that
the whole matter is to be placed before
the lawmakers in way which will enable
them to safeguard ;hc interests of YER
mont and \crmCuters
