No trouble is more common or m misunderstood than nervous dyt1 sia. People having it think tha. nerves are to blame and are sI peea that they are not cured by ne ned- icine and spring remedies; .14 real seat of the mischief is lost hE sEht of; after. /
 Nervous dyspeptics oft< do not have any pain whatever ip. the stomach, nor perhaps any ofntlneHusuaI symp- toms of stomach " Asness. Nervous dyspepsia shows tsei1 not in the stomach as in 4/ariy every other Or gan; in some ases the heart palpi- tates and is 7 lreguhr; in others the kidneys are Effected; in others the bowels are Eonstpated, with head aches; still/ otheE are troubled with loss of fAesh ald appetite, with ac- cumulatvon of gas, sour risings and heartbV6rn.
 MIA. " Sharper of No. e1 Pros pect/ St., Indianapolis, Ind, wrifes as folJo6ws: "A motive of pure gratitude ny<ompts me to write these few lines 1egardi1g the new and valuable medi- i >cine, Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets. I have been sufferer from nervous dys- pepsia for the last four years; have 1 used various patent medicines and other remedies without any favorab e fesult. They sometimes gave tempo rary relief until the effects of the med icine wore off. I attributed this to my Isedentary habits, being a book keeper with little physical exercise, but I am glad to state that the tab lets have overcome all these obstacles, for I have gained flesh, sleep better and am better in every way. The above is written not for notoriety, but is based on actual fact.
 Respectfully yours,

 It is safe to say that Stuart's Dys- pepsia Tablets will cure any stomach weakness or disease except cancer of the stomach. They cure sour stom- ach, gas, loss of flesh and appetite, sleeplessness, palpitajion, heartburn, constipation and headache.

Dromedaries That Smoke Cigars

Dromedaries are said to be partic-
ularly fond of tobacco smoke, and can
be made to do almost anything while
under it's influence. Travellers, it is as
serted, rely more on tobacco smoke
for their control over these huge
beasts than anything else. When
travelling on Ion journeys, the drome-
DIARIES are in many cases required to
travel night and day without rest, and
they are kept up to their task by smok-
ing cigars. The driver carries trlan-
gular piece of wood, which is pierced
at one point like a cigar holder. This
is inserted in the mouth of the animal
the cigar being lit and pressed into
the hole. The dromedary closes it's
eyes and puffs away through its nos
trils until the cigar is burned away.
The indulgence appears to refresh it.,
and the keeper has no difficulty in per-
suading the animal to plod onward
without any further rest.
