DR.. WURTH'S OPINION
OF THE NEW DISCOVERY IN MEDI-
CINE.
A Remarkably Successful Remedy for
Dyspepsia, Indigestion and Stom-
ach Troubles.

DR.. Wurth, in commenting on recent
discoveries in medicine, said: There is
none which is certain to be so valuable
and far reaching in benefit as Stuart's
Dyspepsia Tablets the new stomach
remedy; I say far reaching, because
people little realize how important
sound stomach and vigorous digestion
is to every man, woman and child.
Indigestion is the starting point of
consumption, heart disease, Bright's
disease, diabetes, nervous prostration,
liver troubles; why is this SO? Simply
because every nerve, muscle and tissue
in our bodies is created and nourished
from the food we eat. If that food is,
by reason of a weak stomach, COM
PEELED to lie for hours, a sour, ferment-
ing mass of half digested food, it pois-
ons the blood and nervous system, ere
ates gas which distends the stomach
and bowels, causing pressure on the
heart, lungs and other organs and SER
iously impeding their action.
He says further, the point to direct
attention is not the nerves, nor the
heart, nor lungs, nor kidneys, but the
stomach, the first cause of all the mis-
chief
The remedy to use for indigestion
and weak stomach is not some cathar-
tic, but remedy which will digest the
food, increase the flow of gastric juice,
absorb the gases, and Stuart's Dyspep-
sia Tablets will accomplish exactly this
result in any case of stomach trouble,
because these tablets are composed of
the digestive acids, aseptic pepsin,
golden seal and bismuth, pleasant to
taste, and not being a patent medicine,
can be used by anyone with perfect
safety. I believe Stuart's Dyspepsia
Tablets viii cure any form of indiges-
ton and stomach trouble except cancer
of the stomach.
Full size packages of Stuart's Dys-
pepsia Tablets are sold by druggists at
90 cents or by mail from F. A Stuart
Co, Marshall, Mich. A book on stom-
ach diseases together with thousands
of testimonials will be sent by address,
ing above or call on your druggist for
them.

 The Stock Market.

New York, Aug. 8.-The stock market to-day underwent one of the processes which is usual in @ strong advance. Even where the general trend of prices is upward for a long period the move ment is very rarely uninterrupted. Halts and reactions are normal pro- cesses even in a storng market and are to be looked for even in the continuance of favorable conditions. There was such a halt for a time to-day and it looked as though the reactionists had gained the upper hand. Profit taking began from the start in some of the recent favorites and held them back even while the rest of the market was ris- ing buoyantly on the outside orders which had come into commission houses during the Sunday interval, The vol ume of these orders was large and in dicated a growth of confidence by the outside public in the value of securi- ties. But the disposition to take profits on the strength of this outside demand caused a feeling of doubt in the minds of room traders, and the rumor got in- to circulation that the large moneyed interests which bought stocks last week were selling out. The professional bears thereupon rushed to sell at about the time when the accumulated commits sion house orders had been executed The bears were also inclined to take a skeptical view of the reported accept ance by Spain of the terms of peace and they had a detailed report in clr- culation that new questions were open ed up by the reply which endangered the whole negotiations. This was be- fore the receipt of the reply in cipher by the French embassy at Washington, but it was effective in causing a reac- tion in spite of the strength of Spanish securities in Paris on peace prospects. Earlier gains were wiped out in prac- tically all cases, the market falling be- low Saturdays level. At this point every large block of stocks began to be taken again and berore the close there was almost complete recovery. A number of the industrials, notably Tobacco Leather pref, the malting stocks and the stocks of some of the iron and steel companies showed con- spicuous advances. The late movement
 
 of the market is likely to beget the sus- picion that the reaction was looked up- on complacently by the moneyed men who have assumed the leadership of the market. The speculative outlook has become so clearly bullish that the market was becoming filled with weak ly margined accounts based on paper profits. The volume of stop loss orders dislodged served to show that con- siderable bull following of this descrip- tion was shaken out by the day S movement. The latter trading showed decline in animation and a slightly yielding tendency in prices.
 The pressure of funds for investment In securities paying fair rate of inter- est and reasonably safe gave continued strength to bonds to-day. Total sales $4, oOo OO0.
 The new government 3s when issued showed a decline of 1s in the bid price. Otherwise there was no change in gov- ernment bonds.

ONE MANS START IN BUSINESS

ONE MANS START IN BUSINESS.
 Of all the curious starts In life of which self-made men are apt to boast. the most extraordinary one is that which furnished the basis for busi- ness from which a statiouer in this city derives a comfortable income. He does not tell the story himself but it comes from an old acquaintance whose verac- ity is beyond question, The successful business man of to-day was once a col lector for mercantile house, and made as high as thirty or forty calls per day on delinquent customers. He always borrowed a lead pensil from each one, and never returned it unless asked to do so. Of course, no suspicion attach ed to him, for forgetfulness in regard to lead pencils is recognized as a hu- man failing. One of every three he se- cured was long enough to pass muster as a new pencil, and after he collected one thousand in this way he secured a contract for furnishing lead pencils to a country school. One of the advan- tages of his bid was that he offered to supply pencils already sharpened. He now maintains a commodious station cry store, and his contract department fiourishes. hes.-Philadelphia Record.

ch1ef'S wives had prepared our morning meal, and after eating I borrowed horse from the old chief and rode out toward the scene of the hunt I was much too late to join in the chase. By the time I reached the plateau on which the buffalo had been discovered the herd had been run and the survivors were gone, but the sagebrush plain was thickIy dotted with the huge forms of the slain to the number of several hun dred, and now the hunters, the women and the boys were busy skinning them and cutting up the meat Here and there a couple of men were quarreling over the ownership of a fat COW, which both claimed to have shot. But these disputes were seldom serious, and gen. orally ended in a division of the meat. In the old days, when the bow and ar row was the only weapon used, these quarrels seldom occurred, for each Indi- an had a mark on his shafts.
 Many of the hunters, having pointed out to their women the animals they had killed, now began to ride slowly toward home. They had done their share of the work. They were very happy over their success, and nearly every one who passed called out that he would send tongue over to the chiefs lodge for me. Not a little interested in watching the women cut up the buffa- To, although I had seen them at such work many times, I rode out along the line of chase, which extended several miles. The women were in very good humor, too, that morning, and laughed and ioked with each other while tbav worked. There is nothing so conducive to contentment as goodly store of pro- visions.

Chester Chagriued.

The Republican papers Of the
Seventh district have been using as a
battle cry that of "Charge Chester.
Charge. On Stanley. On" We have
often wondered what Chester is to
charge, and what is to be the manner
Of his charge. We hear that he made
a charge upon the supposed faithful
at Harper, Monday of this week and
was in almost every instance repulsed.
Chester started down the street with
that self satisfied air for which he is
so noted, looking his prettiest, aud
approaching good Republican he
put on his give me your vote smile
and extended his hand; the Harper
merchant Imply wrung his hand and
hurriedly passed on to attend to some
urgent business not pertaining to
politics; another Republican hove in
sight and bumped into Chester before
seeing him and he retired hurriedly
without seeing the winning smile and
extended hand. an oversight of course.
On down the street Chester charged,
and from the look Of the street he
must have succeeded in routing friend
and foe alike, and there were none on
that whole street $50 poor as to do
him reverence. He stalked majestic
ally alone to the, Patterson House, anc
awaited the coming OF his former ad.
mirers, but alas and alack they did
not main each other in their hurry TO
reach his august presence; they lid
not arrive in droves and when the few
did 90 80 see him it was rather to
demand an explanation than to yield
homage to their once leader. An I'm.
washed Pop, who had not the finer
sensibilities Of Captain Phillip, of the
Texas, or did not realize that Chester
was politically dying, passed among
the Republicans and suggested that
Mr.. Long wanted some thirty OF bis
staunchest former friends to meet
with him az banquet at the Patter-
son House, and that with good cheer
and good beer, he would explain to
them just why the postOffice at Har-
per had been disposed OF as it had,
and strange to say, the Republicans
with one accord became wroth and
swore with might and main that
they would see Chester in the place
where the Spanish LANGUAGE is largely
spoken, or the place where the greater
part Of the Spanish navy is located,
before they would meet with him to
hear any kind Of an explanation.
And it is thus in every hamlet In the
Seventh district, where there are
postOfflces, and hungry Republicans;
and who shall say that Chester the
Valiant and Chester the Beautiful, is
not reaping richly OF the whirlwind
which he had so lavishly sown. -

been removed when the park was
thrown open. The injured ones are
