man, who makes his influence felt where
ever he goes. He is good conversation

In the second part of the entertainment,
the famous Junior" minstrels covered
themselves with glory and black paint.
The solos rendered by Messrs. Hunter,
Fenton, Elberson, Tidswell, Troth and

grand cake walk brought down the house.

presented in which little Freddie Norcross
and Edna Troth represented Uncle Sam

is due Edward Troth for the success of the
last half of the programme. At the con
clusion of the exercises many friends of

A Hundred Reasons

Can be given why Stuart's Dyspepsia
Tablets are the best and most effectual
cure for every form of Indigestion.
They are in tablet form, which retain
their good qualities indefinitely, while
liuuid preparations become stale and use
less 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 a perfect digest
i've, absolutely safe for the most sensitive
stomach.
They digest the food before It has time
to ferment, thus preventing the fOrma-
ton of gas and keeping the blood pure
and free from the poisonous products of
fermented. half digested food.
Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets make the
complexion clear by keeping the blood
pure.
They increase flesh by digesting flesh
forming foods.
Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets is the only
remedy designed especially for the cure
of stomach troubles and nothing else.
One disease, one remedy, the successful
physician of today is the specialist the
successful medicine is the medicine pre-
pared especially for one disease.
A whole package taken at one time
would not hurt you, but would simply be
a waste of good material.
Over six thousand men and women in
the State OF Michigan alone have been
cured of indigestion and dyspepsia by the
use of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets.
Sold by all druggists at SO cents per
package.
