DIR. WURTH'S OPINION
OF THE NEW DISCOVERY IN MEoI-
CINE.
A Remarkably Successful Remedy for
Dyspepsia, Indigestion and
stomach Troubles.

DR. Wurth, in commenting on recent dis
coveries in medicine, said: There is none
which is certain to be so valuable and
far-reaching in benefit as Stuarts Dys-
pepsia Tablets, the new stomach remedy:
l say far-reaching because people little
realize how important a sound stomach
and vigorous digestion is to every man,
woman and child
Indigestion is the starting point of CON
sumption, heart disease, Bright's disease,
diabetes, nervous prostration, liver
troubles Why is this so? Simply be-
cause every nerve, muscle and tissue in
our bodies is created and nourished from
the food we eat If that food is, by rea-
son of weak stomach, compelled to lie
for hours q sour, fermenting mass of
half-digested food, it poisons the blood
and nervous system, creates gas which
distends the stomach and bowels, causing
pressure on the heart, lungs and other
organs and seriously impeding their
action.
He says further, the point to direct at
tention IS not the nerves. nor heart, nor
lungs nor kidneys, but the stomach, the
first cause of all the mischief.
The remedy to use for Indigestion and
weak stomach is not some cathartic but
d remedy which will digest the food in
crease the flow of gastric juice, absorb
the gases, and Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets
viii accomplish exactly this result in any
case of stomach trouble, because these
tablets are composed Of the digestive
acids, aseptic pepsin, Golden Seal and bis
muth, pleasant to taste, and not being a
patent medicine, can be used by any one
with perfect safety l believe Stuart's
Dyspepsia Tablets will cure any form of
indigestion and stomach trouble except
cancer of the stomach.
Fun size packages of Stuarts Dys-
pepsia Tablets are sold by druggists at
SO cents or by mail from F. a. Stuart Co.,
Marshall, Mich. A book on stomach dis
ease, together with thousands of testi-
monials, will be sent by addressing above
or call on your druggist for them.

A LIBEL ON CREAM OF TARTAR
BAKING POWDERS.

A restrictive law against alum bak-
ing powders, such as is enforced in
some western states, would be a boon
to the people Of this state Physicians
say that the danger from alum baking
powders is greatly augmented of late.
Manufacturers have adopted various
tricks to disguise these powders, not
hesitatlng to guarantee them as made
of cream of tartar, and as they are sold
at a lower price than a pure cream of
tartar powder their use is spreading,
particularly among the people who can
least afford to use unhealthful food.
Housekeepers should be on their
guard against this danger to their
food Alum powders are almost always
low priced But they are well known
to be detrimental to health Many
boards of health have published the
names of the alum powders in order to
warn the public against them In
England their sale is forbidden by law.
The very highest authorities condemn
their use. Dr. s. w. Johnson. for in
stance, professor of chemistry al Yale
College, says: Bread made with a
baking powder containing alum must
yield a soluble alumina salt with the
gastric juice, and must, therefore. act
as q poison, / am decidedly of the
opinion, says the professor, that the
manufacture and sale Of such baking
powders ought to be interdicted with
heavy penalties"
1t is well known that these so-called
CHEAP" goods are made from alum or
the very cheapest materials. They cost
but four or five cents per pound TO
produce, though they are generally sold
at about rs cents per pound. The great
profit in them causes their sale to be
pushed by their manufacturers-an
by some not over ScruDulOug grOcars
