Considerable trouble was had with
the natural gas the past three days and
several fires were narrowly averted.
The gas here has very strong pressure
but the extreme cold weather the past
few days has had much serious effect
on the mains. Some hours the supply
was short and if the pipes were not
properly watched the pressure would
again come on full, thus making it very
dangerous. Two or three buildings
caught fire in this manner. but the
blaze in each case was extinguished

CATARRH OF STOMACH.
A Pleasant, Simple, but Safe and Effectual
Cure for 1t.


\ Pleasant, Simple, but Safe and Effectus
Cure for 1t.
Eatarrh of the stomach has long
been considered the next thing to
incurable. The usual symptoms
are a full of bloating sensation
after eating, accompanied some
times with sour or watery riSingS,
a formation of gases, causing pres
sure ON the heart and lungs and
difficult breathing; headaches,
tickle appetite, nervousness and a
general played out, languid feel
ing.
There is often foul taste in
the mouth, coated tongue and if the
interior OF the stomach could be
seen it would show a Shiny, In
famed condition.
The cure OF this common and
obstinate trouble is found in a
treatment which causes the food
to be readily, thoroughly digested
before it has time to ferment and
irritate the delicate mucous sur
faces of the stomach. To secure
a prompt and healthy digestion is
the one necessary thing to do and
when normal digestion is secured
the catarrhal condition will have
disappeared.
According to DIR. Harlanson, the
safest and best treatment is to use
after each meal a tablet. compos-
ed of Diatase, Aseptic Pepsin, lit
tie NuX. Golden Seal and fruit
acids. These tablets can now be
found at all drug stores under the
name of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tab
lets, and not being a patent medi-
cine can be used with perfect safe
ty and assurance that healthy ap-
petite and thorough digestion will
follow their regular use after
meals.
MIR. N. J. Booher, of 2710 Dear
born St, Chicago, ILL.,, writes:
"Catarrh is a local condition re-
sulting from a neglected cold in
the head, whereby the lining mem
brane of the nose becomes inllamed
and the poisonous discharge there

using only one box of Stuart's
Dyspepsia Tablets. l cannot find
appropriate words to express my
good feeling. l have found flesh,

Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets is the
safest preparation as we'll as the
simplets and most convenient rem

sour stomach, heartburn and
bloating after meals.

A MAN
LOS

Lost No man understands the full
fneaning of that word like the man who
has been lost. He viii tell you: Il was
in the woods going ahead steadily when
] realized I'd missed the trail. With a
cry of Lost ! | broke into run heed
less or ignorant of the direction l was
going"
The first impulse of man lost IN the
woods is to run. The only safe thing is
to sit right down and reason out the
position
Sometimes a business man gets up at the
usual hour, breakfasts, kisses his wife and
starts for the Office. He has for some
time seen signs that he was off the trail
of health. To-day the signs multiply.
His brain is dull and dizzy, his heart
does not beat right, his breathing is diff
hcult, his limbs feel trenulous, He is
scared. He realizes that he's far away
from the trail of health, and suddenly
/ like a panther from tree, the thought
leaps on. him, Won are a lost man. -
The first impulse is to run for help,
though the way is honey-conlbed with
pitfalls of quackery. But the rational
man faces the facts, sits down and
thinks over the position and its proba-
bilIt1eS.
That is the man We want to talk to.
Disease In almost any form is GEN

organs of digestion and nutrition. Re-
