HORSE SENSE.
Daily Demonstrations Given, a
Seventh and X Streets.

There is a horse employed in hoist
ing bricks and mortar on a platform
to the top of the Capital Hotel build
ing at Seventh and K streets, and the
old fellow displays remarkable intel
ligence.
The horses station is on the Seventh
street side, 100 feet from the corner,
where the elevator Is located. When a
wheelbarrow load has been placed on
the platform a man gives three blasts
on a whistle Then the old sleepy
looking horse slowly turns toward K
street and starts up the grade. He
knows Just how far to go and stops ex-
actly when the elevatorhreaches the
top.
Then he waits until the empty wheel
barrow is placed on the elevator, when
the man at the top again gives three
chirps of the whistle, and the horse
turns about and goes back to the start
ing-point, allowing the elevator to de-
scend. Nobody goes near him all day.
but he goes through his task from
morning till night, governed only by
the whistle and his own horse-sense.
No matter how many bystanders may
whistle and try to rattle him, the old
horse stands there with his head down
and apparently asleep, until the chirp
Of the right whistle is heard.

just a. Easy to Form as Any Other.
We do not deliberately form our pet
habits, but they are unconsciously ac-
quired and grow as we grow, and by
the time we learn they are hurting us.
we find them too strong to be easily
broken
Then why not form a good habit, a
habit which will counterfeit the many
bad ones. in other words contract the
questionable habit of being always
well.
The best health habit to get into is
to have and keep a vigorous stomach;
if you have healthy digestion you
can drink your beloved coffee, smoke
your favorite brand OF tobacco with lit
tie or no harm; the mischief begins
when these things are forced upon the
faithful stomach without any assist
ance.
Form the habit of taking after meals
some harmless but efficient digestive
which will relieve the stomach of so
much extra work.
Nature furnishes US with such d.
gestives, and when they are combined
in such a pleasant preparation as Stu
arts Dyspepsia Tablets, they give the
overworked stomach just the neces-
sary assistance to secure perfect di-
gestion without any of the harmful eff
fects of cathartics and similar drugs.
The habit of taking Stuart's Dyspep-
STA Tablets after meals is as necessary
to the weak stomach as food itself, and
indeed to get the benefit from food
eaten, nothing better and certainly
nothing safer can be used.
Many families consider Stuart's Tab
let's as essential in the house as knives
and forks.
They consist entirely of natural di-
gestive principles without the effect or
characteristics of drugs; they have no
cathartic action. but simply go to work
on the food eaten and digest it.
Take into account your bad habits
and the expense they entail and then
invest 80 cents in box of Stuart
Dyspepsia Tablets and see If your di-
gestion for the next month is not vastly
improved.
q Ask the clerk In any drug store the
name Of the most successful and popu-
lar stomach remedy and he will say
''stuart'A''
