Thc Courts

A Georgia justice Of the peace, re-
lates Case and Comment, once took
upon himself to charge q jury as fol-
lows Gentlemen, this Ia a case which
has been tried by me before, and de-
cided In favor of the defendant" AS
the jury took the hint and found for
the defendant, Just as the justice had
done before, although the evidence was
overwhelmingly In favor of the plain
tih, the higher court refused to let the
verdict stand. 1t also commented as
follows.
"a justice of the peace Ia generally
a man of consequence In his neighbor-
hood, He writes the Wills, draws the
deeds and pulls the teeth of the peo-
pie; also he performs divers surgical
operations on the animals of his neigh
bOrs, The Justice has played his part
on the busy stage Of life from the time
Of Mr., Justice Shallow down to the
time of Mr., Justice higgins, Who has
not seen the gaping, listening crowd
assembled around his honor, the JUS
tlce on tiptoe to catch the words of
wisdom as they fell from his venerated
llps9
"And still they gazed,
And still the wonder grew
That one small head

THE OLD WAY
or Treating Dyspepsia and indigestion
by Dieting u Dangerous and
Useless One.

We say the old way, but really it is
very common one at present time and
many dyspeptics and physicians as we'll
consider the first step to take in at
tempting to cure indigestion Is to diet,
either by selecting certain foods and re-
jecting others or to greatly diminish the
quantity usually taken, in other words,
the starvation plan is by many supposed
to be the first essential.
The almost certain failure of the
starvation cure for dyspepsia has been
proven time and again, but still the
moment dyspepsia makes it's appear
ance q course of dieting Is at once ad-
vised.
All this Is radically wrong. 1t is fool
ish and unscientitic to recommend diet
ing or starvation to a man suffering
from dyspepsia, because indigestion it
self starves every organ and every nerve
and every fibre in the body.
What the, dyspeptic wants Is album
dant nutrition, which means plenty of
good, wholesome well cooked food and
something to assist the weak stomach to
digest it. This is exactly the purpose
for which Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets

dyspepsia, in other words the patient
