NO FAITH CURE
ABOUT STUARI'S OYSPEP-
STA TABLETS.
They Cure Stomach Troubles
and Indigestion Anyway,
Whether You Have Faith in
Them or Not.

Mere faith will not digest your food
for you, will not give You an appetite,
will not increase your flesh and strength
en- your nerves and heart, but Stuarts
Dyspepsia Tablets will do these things,
because they are composed of the ele-
ments of digestion, they contain the
juices. acids and peptones necessary 10
the digestion and assimilation of all
wholesome food.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets will digest
food if placed in jar or bottle in water
heated to 90 degrees, and they Will do II
much more effectively when taken into
the stomach after meals, whether yon
have faith that they will or not.
They invigorate the stomach, make
pure blood and strong nerves, in the
only way that nature can do it, and
that is. from plenty of wholesome food
well digested. Ii is not what we eat,
but what we digest that does us good.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are sold by
nearly all druggists at 80 cents for full
sized package, or by mail from the +.

What a snipe Did.

Last Sunday afternoon a couple
Of Texarkana clerks started out to
call upon their lady friends. They
both carried silk umbrellas, for the
evening was a threatening one, and
they did not wish to get wet.
One of these clerks is an ever
lasting smoker and on this occasion
he had his cigar smoked down to
the stage where it no longer goes
under its original name, but takes
on that of the "snipe.
The young men arrived at house
number one, where they were to
make their first call, and while one
of them was tugging at the door
bell, the other one with the snipe
was arranging the umbrellas
against the window on the gallery,
and taking parting Whit at the
snipe, he thought how nice it would
be to leave the partially smoked
stump on the window and when
they retired he could regain it and
have several more whiffs from the
seductive weed.
He placed the lighted stump or
the window sill just sa5ove the um
brellas, and by this time the dool
bell had been answered and they
we're bowed and giggled into tht
parlor. They had not been ther,
long before the alarm of fire wa
sounded in front of the house ant
on going to the gallery, they behel,
their silk umbrellas IN a brigh
blaze which were thrown int
the yard and we're soon quickly con
sumed.
The gentleman's half smoke
cigar had rolled off the window si
into one of the sun shades an
caused the destruction. This show
what a snipe can do when 1t is de
posted in the wrong place on wait
ing orders.

BRYAN IN NEW YORK.
He Started West Monday-Confer-
ence With Eastern Leaders.

New York, December ll.-For
the first time since the 1896 elec-
tion, VIM. ]. Bryan set foot today
on New York City pavements. He
came from Washington and regis
tered at the Bartholdi He had
nothing to add to his statement of
last Tuesday on the question of ex-
pansion. He thought those men
who had enlisted for service only
during the war should now have the
opportunity to ret urn to civil life,
if they desire to do so.
81 hope Congress will devise some
plan, he said, "by which the army
OF occupation can be separated
from the regular army, in order
that the volunteers may be at once
relieved from duty.
Everyone is in faver of recruit
lug our army Of occupation for SER
vice in Cuba, Porto Rico and the
Philippines. Even such plan as
that would require a SPECIAL act OF
Congress in order to relieve the
volunteers.
Colonel Bryan lounged on a couch
while he talked.
81 am here today merely to at
tend to a little personal business
l shall return to Washington somt
time tomorrow, and on Monday
shall start on my journey to Ne
braska.
81 have every reason to believe
that the silver issue is stronge
; than ever, and that it will continu
to grow until it sweeps all before it
The money issue and opposition t.
trusts are growing in public favor.
News of the presence of the dis
tlnguished visitor spread rapidly
and soon he was besieged by oil,
friends who stood by him in th
campaign of 1896.
Political friends of Colonel Bryal
said privately that he was here t.
consult with certain members o
the Democratic National Commit
tee, in whose friendship he has un
bounded faith. They said that
conference would take place tomor
row.

SIS, 600, 600 Lost on Horse Races,

1t is stated that a man won and
lost $5, ,0O0,O on horse races, For
twenty years he kept at it, and
most of the time he was successful,
At last fortune turned against him
and today he is penniless. Gambling
is a good deal like neglect of health,
1t can be kept up a long time but in
the end it is disastrous. Fortunes
are harder to restore than health,
The first step toward winning back
lost health is to restore the diges-
tive organs to a normal condition.
For this purpose Hostetter's Stom-
ach Bitters is far ahead Of anything
else. This remedy is specific for
indigestion, dyspepsia, fever, ague,
nervousness and sleeplessness. 1t is
wonderful tonic. Druggists sell
it everywhere.
