INTENSE SUFFERING
FROM DYSPEPSIA AND STOMACH
TROUBLE.
Instantly Relieved and Permanently
Cured by Stuurt's Dyspepsia
Tablets.
4 New Discovery. But Not n Patent
Medicine.

DR. Redwell relates an interesting ac-
count OF what he considers a remarkable
case Of acute stomach trouble and chronic
dyspepsia by the use of the new discovery,
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets
He SAYS, The patient was man who
had suffered, to my knowledge, years with
dyspepsia. Everything he ate seemed TO
sour and create gases in the stomach. lie
had pains like rheumatism in the back
shoulder blades and limbs fullness and
distress after eating, poor appetite and
loss Of flesh: the heart became affected
causing palpitatiou and sleeplessness at
night
i gave him powerful nerve tonics and
blood remedies, but to no purpose. As an
experiment ] finally bought 80 cent pack
age of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets at
drug store and gave them 10 him. Almost
immediate relief was given and after he
had used four boxes he was to all appear
ances fully cured.
There was no more acidity or sour,
watery risings, no bloating after meals,
the appetite was vigorous and he las
gained between 10 and Y pounds in weight
of solid healthy flesh.
Although Stuart S Dyspepsia Tablets are
advertised and sold in drug stores, yet l
consider them a most valuable addition to
any physicians line of remedies, as they
are perfectly harmless and can be given
10 children or invalids or in any condition
of the stomach with perfect safety, being
harmless and containing nothing but fruit
and vegetable essences, pure pepsin and
Golden Seal.
Without any question they are the
safest, most effective cure for Indigestion,
biliousness. constipation. and all derange-
ments of the stomach, however slight or
severe"
Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets are made by
the F. A. Stuart Company of Marshall,
Mich and are sold by druggists every
where at so cents per package

The Castle Square Opera Company be-
gan its third season of opera in English
at the American Theatre on Monday
night, before an enthusiastic audience
that packed the popular playhouse to hear
the first performance in English in Amer
lea OF Wagner's die Meistersinger." This
creditable ambition to place the great
ompos before the people, in the lan-
guage of the people and at prices within
the reach Of the people. was magniicently
realized. The performance scored a pop
ular success, both principals and chorus
being called before the curtain again and
again, testifying to the fact that the au-
dience was grateful for the opportunity
to hear the music in a language that
would enable them to ompare the words
and music of Wagner. which, to a proper
understanding of his works, are ~insepara-
ble. Long before the final curtain fell
the triumph Of the evening was assured.
The production was well staged and in
every detail showed the application of

honors of the evening with the former

night Mr.. Sheehan, Miss Hardy and Mr..

cipaI roles, made pronounced hits.

will be noteworthy because of the reap
pearance of Miss Grace Golden, after an
absence of one year. There is little doubt
that she will at once re-establish herself
as one of the most popular favorites OF
the Castle Square Opera Company. In
the role Of Juliet she will find an espe-
cially suitable medium for the display OF
her great vocal and dramatic gifts. Mr..
Sheehan will be the Romeo, and the re-
mainder Of the cast will be as follows

The Governor laughed at the reports
put in circulation to the effect that he
had been shatlbily treated by the New
York committee of arrangements for the
Dewey celebration and that his staff had
not received tickets to the grand stand.
THAT report is utterly without foun-
dation.' said his Excellency to the re-
porter. II never was treated better at
any celebration and all the members of
my stan were provided for. The arrange
ments were the most perfect I have ever
known.
Governor voorhees, received a long let
ter from Captain Chadwick, of the nag
ship New York, in which the Captain
states that the naval officers of Samp-
sons fleet propose making the presenta-
.tion of the diamond studded sword to
the Admiral, to be held in this city on
the 18th inst, a gala affair by turning
out in full numbers. dressed in special
full dress. The Captain also suggested
holding the presentation later In the day
instead of noon, n Governor Voorhees,
will probably act upon the suggestion.
Among the officers whom Captain Chad
wick states will tbe present are Rear Adj
miral Higginson, Captain Brownson,
Rear Admiral Philip, Rear Admiral
croninshield, Lieutenant Blue. Lieuten-
ant Usher. Lieutenant Winslow and Com
mander Wainwright.
The Governor yesterday received q Tor
