DEMOCRATS ARE WISE.
DR.. Brandenberg Says 1t Doesn't Pay
to Be Too Greedy.


DR.. c. w. Brandenberg of ATarysville,
who was the Democratic candidate for
congress in the Fifth district in 1894,
believes, with Ex-Governor Click, that
a demand on the part of the Demo-
Gratis for places on the Populist state
ticket would cause more of a disaster
than a blessing to the fusion forces"
DR.. Brandenberg said:
This action, from a Democratic
standpoint, in my judgment, would be
almost suicidal. It would demOralize
the present anicable arrangement Of
affairs and 1 think it would be likely to
upset the plans now made, and if car
ried out, viii re-elect the present state
ticket. Were the PopuHsts to consent
to such recognition of our party,
think the members of their own party
would, to some extent repudiate it.
This is a condition which would be
deprecated, as it would very likely en-
danger the success of the entire ticket.
The Democrats should I think, stand
by the present state administration
and endorse the ticket for reelection"

Was a Natural Result of Atmos-

the meteorological prophet, says that
the Fort Smith cyclone was but the
natural outcome of the condition of the

on those days.
Rev. Irl Hicks claims credit for hav-
ing forecasted the disturbances center
ing in Fort Smith several days ago. He
calls attention to a forecast for Jan
uary, made by him some time ago,
which was as follows:
"A reactiOnary storm period will CEN
ter on 9Th to 18th, moon being on the
celestial equator on her swing south
ward on the 18th. Look out for a very
sharp cold wave to press close behind
these reactionary storms, reaching eV-

A Hundred Reasons

Can be given why Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are the best and most effectual cure for any form of indigestion,
 They are in Tablet form which re- tains their good qualities indefinitely, While liquid preparations become stale and useless with age,
 They are convenient, can be carried in the pocket and taken when needed. They are pleasant to the taste.
 After each meal dissolve one or two of them in the mouth and, mingling with the food, they constitute per- most sensitive stomach.
 They digest the food before it has time to ferment, thus preventing the formation of gas and keeping the blood pure and free from the poisonous pro ducts of fermented, half digested food.
 Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets make the complexion clear by keeping the blood pure.
 They increase flesh by digesting flesh-forming foods.
 Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets is the only remedy designed especially for the cure of stomach troubles and nothing else.
 One disease, one remedy, the success ful physician of to-day is the special ist, the successful medicine is the med icine prepared especially for one dis ease
 A whole package taken at one time would not hurt you, but would simply be waste of good material.
 Over six thousand men and women in the state of nfichioan alone have been cured of indigestion and dyspepsia by the use of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tab lets.
 Sold by all druggists at 50 cents per l package.

Valuable Paper Read By Judge Bald

Valuable Paper Read By Judge Bald
 win at Fourth Church, Hartford.
 Hartford, May 5.-Judge Baldwin of the supreme court read a valuable pa per on Objects Served by the Eccle- siastical Society" at the semi-annual meeting of the Hartford conference in the Fourh church last evening, Judge Baldwin traced the origin of the society as coming from the old New England idea of the town caring for the church in its business relations, by taxation upon the assessed valuation of the community, and said that it had come to take sort of middle ground as a corporation invented to serve the church. The power of taxation of members, he thought, still remained in the society, but it had not been re- sorted to. The value of the society as a balance in the carrying forward of the work of the church itself was pointed out in the fact that the church was made up of all ages, men, women and children, and was more likely to be carried away by emotion than the society which was made up of grown men who could not, in their meetings, transact any business unless it had been distinctly stated in the warning or call. Professor Williston Walker of the Hartford Theological seminary read a paper on Some Aspects of the Re- ligious State in Connecticut in 17S9," which was an interesting review of the awakening of the churches to new spiritual life in the closing decade of the last and the opening decade of the present.
