Catarrh of the stoma@hs1k long been
considered the next thing 10 incurable.
The usual symptoms are!aNfl or bloating
sensation after eating, Aceohpanied with
sour or watery risings, q formation of
gases causing pressure on the heart and
lungs, and dificult breathing; headaches,
tickle appetite. nervousnes9 Ind a general
played out languid feeling
There is often foul taste in the mouth,
coated tongue and IL the interior of the
stomach could be seen it would show a
Shiny, iniamed condition.
The cure for this common and obstinate
trouble Is found in treatment which
causes the food to be readily, thoroughly
digested before it has time to ferment and
irritate the delicate mucous surface Of the
stomach. To secure prompt and healthy
digestion is the one necessary thing to
do and when normal digestion is secured
the catarrhal condition will have disap-
peared.
According to DR.. Harlanson the safest
and best treatment is to use after each
meal a tablet. composed Of Diastase. Asep-
tic Pepsin, a little Nux. Golden Seal and
fruit acids. These tablets can now be
found at all drug stores under the name
of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets. and not
being a patent medicine can be used with
perfect safety and assurance that healthy
appetite will follow their regular use after
meals
Mr.. N j. Booher, of 2710 Dearborn ST.,
Chicago, ILL.,, says: "Catarrh is a local
condition resulting from a neglected cold
in the head, whereby the lining membrane
of the nose becomes infiamed and the poi
sonous discharge therefrom passing back
ward into the throat reaches the stomach,
thus producing catarrh of the stomach.

ID
cles and business men no longer place
advertisements 4 because Jones or
Brown, who are connected with the
paper, are good fellows. Results, prof
liable returns, value received and a lit
tile more, are the motives that prompt
business men in these days to adyer-
tise. Advertising placed with any 9TH
er thought is misplaced, and this is all
distinctly realized by Davenport mer-
chants. All this makes the future of
the Times promising one. In look
ing after its advertisers this paper will
give them the best service that II is
possible to maintain. The modern
newspaper publisher realizes that TO
fill his advertising columns he must
make the merchants advertising prof.
table, and he must see that the adver-
tiser does not neglect his advertising
and he must surround the ADVERTISE
ment with fresh. live news matter. In
fact, the publisher and the merchant
must work for results together"
This kind of talk has the right ring.
Tt is business through and through
and backed by Mr.. Reimers' known
energy and ability is bound to win.
The Courier extends hearty congratu-
lations to its Davenport contemporary.
Ottumwa semi-weekly courier. [volume] (Ottumwa, Iowa) 1899-1903, 1899-08-10

If straws point to the direction in
which the wind is winding" Ottum-
wa will soon be in the throes of the
municipal ownership problem. AS was
given to Courier readers last week,
and by the way, long before any OF
the other city papers got hold of it,
which is a regular habit the Courier
has, the council had about decided to
pass an ordinance authorizing the pur-
chase of water works plant by the
city at the conclusion of the life OF
the CONTRACT with the City Water Sup
ply company. At last nights council
meeting such an ordinance was intro
duced and passed to its second read
ing. The council has mag
unanimously (?), in this ordinance, sta
ted that every effort should be made
TO purchase the old plant now in oper-
alton here, to the extent of offering
SG5,0o0 for it. As the plant is bonded
for 100000, it is believed the council
win be compelled to guess again.
Some time ago, when this matter was
first talked of, President Cole, of the
company, stated that 100000 could
not begin to purchase the plant.
