PECULIAR P0IS0NS.
Generated In the Human Body.
The Result of Imperfect Digestion of
Food.

! The Result of Imperfect Digestion of
Food.
Every living thing, plant or animal,
contains within itself the germs OF
certain decay and death.
In the human body these germs of
disease and death (called by scientists
Ptomaines). are usually the result of
imperfect digestion of food; the re-
suit of indigestion or dyspepsia.
The stomach, from abuse, weak
ness. does not promptly aud thorough
" digest the food The result is q
heavy, sodden mass which ferments
(the first process of decay poisoning
the blood. making it thin, weak and
lacking in red corpsucles; poisoning
the brain. causing headache and pain
N the eyes.
Bad digestion irritates the heart,
causing palpitation and bringing on
disease of this very important organ.
Poor digestion poisons the kidneys,
causing Bright's disease and diabetes.
And this is so because every organ,
every nerve depends upon the
stomach alone for nourishment and
renewal, and weak digestion shows
itself not only in loss of appetite and
flesh, but in weak nerves and ruddy
complexion.
The great English scientist, Huxley,
said the best start in life is sound
stomach. Weak stomachs fail to di-
gest food properly, because they lack
the proper quantity of digestive acids
Qactic and hvdrochloric) and pepto-
genie products; the most sensible
remedy in all cases of indigestion. is
to take after each meal, one or two of
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets, because
they supply in Il pleasant, harmless
form all the elements that weak stom-
achs lack.
The regular use of Stuart's Dyspep-
STA Tablets will cure every form of
stomach trouble except cancer of the
stomach.
They increase flesh, insure pure
blood, strong nerves, bright eye
and clear complexion, because all
these result only from wholesome food
well digested.
Nearly all druggists sell Stuart's
Dyspepsia Tablets at 80 cents full
sized package or by mail by enclosing
price to Stuart company, Marshall,
Mich. but ask your druggist first,

ARE COMING OUR WAY
Enthusiastic Observations of a
Citizen As to How Things
Are Moving Here.
CITYs PROSPECTS ARE THE BEST.

Levee and Reservoir Growing Achieve
ments OF Many in the Past Five Years
What Seems Most Needed Now is New
Theatre and a Centrally Located Depot
For Az the Roads.
The people of Rock Island will
have occasion TO be proud OF the ac-
mplishments of the present council
in the matter OF the new levee and
reservoir, and particularly in the i'm
portant precedent that has been but
recently established by the same
council in preserving to the city that
which has been improved, as in the
levee, for instance. " Thus spoke a
representative citizen in conversing
with an ARGUS representative this
morning on the advances Rock Island
has made not only in the past year.
in substantial Improvement and de-
velopmeut, but in recent years. Said
the citizen, continuing: Look at
what we have been doing in the past
five Years alone. Aside from carry
ing on and extending our system of
street Improvements, we have broad
ened out, we have that new court
house, we have got our postoffice
''iANll4-r bAt 4bI--SbuSuI w OOiiucH
office, and now we have the levee. the
reservoir, two new bridges and the
Hennepin canal assured, the arsenal
improving and increasing. few more
new business blocks and prospect of
more, and what more do we want?
What We Need Most Now.
IN tell you what we need now
a union depot, u new theatre and
city hall. Then we will be fixed. A.
1T is We are pretty well off for city
Of our size, but we DO need particu-
larly centrally located common de-
pot and theatre. Unless am great
" mistaken we will get these two lat
ter advantages before another year
rolls around

The Massachusetts Metaphysical College
Rev. Mary Baker q. Eddy. the dis
coverer and founder of Christian
Science, has Just completed the exam
ination of a class of about seventy of
the active workers in Christian
Science mind healing, To confer on
them the degrees of the Massachu-
sets Metaphysical college as healcrs,
and teachers of this system of medi-
cine-whose only crowned head is di-
vine sovereignty. whose only priest is
the spiritualized man. Most of those
present were the students of her stu
dents. Nearly all of them had had
several years experience and marked
success as healers.
Their present fields of labor are as
follows:
Riverside, Cal; Salt Lake City,

to have died because of the Christian

care of an NJ. D., but inasmuch as he
was not recovering under that Prac-

to try Christian Science. He did not,
