Gives Some Valuable Hints Regarding the
Care of the Health While Travelling.
Mr.. R. W. Wincherdon. a commercial
traveller from Birmingham, whose JUS
mess keep him almost constantly oii ono
road, relates in the Sunday News the uaA-
gers to health resulting from constant
change of residence and the way he over
came the usual injurious effects.
He saws: One thing people traveiing
cannot very well avoid IS the constanJ
change in water and food; the s6onlach

For several years | suffered more or
less from Indigestion, sour stomachs,
beod.ches distaste for food, often no ap-
netite GAS on the stomach and the usual
nnnleasant effects of imperfect digestion.
Nearly every travelling man has his ia.
vorite remedy for different troubles and
tried all of them with Indifferent re-
suits. Finally on the train between
Pfttsburg and Philadelphia one day,
overheard a conversation between two
ladies, one of whom had suffered severely
from Indigestion and stated she had been
completely cured by a remedy which
she called Stuart's Dyspepsis Tablets;
remembered the conversation because it

town I inquired at the first drug store
and bought package for fifty cents. and
from that day to this 1 have never been
without them. They are pleasant tasting
tablets, not secret patent medicine but
composed of vegetable essences, pure pep
sin, fruit salts and Golden Seal; being in
tablet form they never lose their good
qualities like a LIQUID medicine would.
but are always fresh and ready for use.
1 carry box in my pocket continually,
and whenever 1 see any symptoms of In
digestion take one, also one after each
meal. and for year and half l have
not lost day by reason of poor health
and can eat anything and relish what /
eat; my digestion is absolutely perfect
as far as can judge from my feelings,
and although there may be other stomach
medicines just as igood as Stuart's Dys-
pepsia Tablets, do not know what they
are. Certainly for people who travel
they are far ahea1 of.any liquid medicine,
as hey are so convenient, they can be
carried in the pocket and used whenever
needed.
1 believe they are sold by all druggists
at 80 cents. and believe anyone who will
try them will agree with me that for in
digestion and stomach trouble Stuarts
Dyspepsia tablets are unequaled.

1t seems a sho1t-sghted policy for a
State or city to appropriate less than the
amount needed to carry on the public
schools. Yet hat is what has been done
in New ork city, as will be seen by read
ing the paragraph from Town Topics on
the 7th page, while in Georgia the finance
committee OF the house has reported in
favor of cutting 500, 600 from the public
school fund 1t is said that reduction
of appropriations is necessary in Georgia
because Of the concealment of so much
should the education of the children be
neglected because of the meanness of the
tax dodger? The Democratic Atlanta
Journal raises it's voice in protest, and
calls attention to these words in the plat
form Of the last Democratic State conven-
ton: ''The people of Georgia, without re-
gard to race, color or previous condition,
are indebted to the present system of pub
lie schools, and we believe that the State

than it has been in the past in dealing
with this very important department OF
public service" But there is not, Oh
rather should not be, any politics in this
question The schools and school funds
should not be at the mercy of selfish poll
ticians, who care nothing for education,
the basis of good citizenship, and who,
perhaps, know nothing of its value.
