DANGER IN SODA.
Serious Results Sometimes Follow It's
 Excessive Uses

Common soda is all right in it's place and indispensable in the kitchen and for cooking and washing purposes, but it was never intended as a medicine, and people who use it as such will some day regret it.
 We refer to the common use of soda to relieve heartburn or sour stomach, habit which thousands of people prac- tice and one which is fraught with dan ger; moreover the soda only gives tenn porary relief and in the end the stomach trouble gets worse and worse.
 The soda acts as mechanical irritant to the walls of the stomach and bowels and cases are on record where 1t mas accumulated in the intestines, causing death by inflammation or peritonitis.
 Dr. Harlandson recommends as the safest and surest cure for sour stomach (acid dyspepsia) an excellent prepara- tion sold by druggists under the name of Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets These tablets are large 20-grain lozenges, very pleasant to taste and contain the nat ural acids, peptones and digestive ele- mepts essential to good digestion, and when taken after meals they digest the food perfectly and promptly before 1t has time to ferment. sour and poison the blood and nervous system.
 Dr. Wuerth states that he invariably uses Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets In all cases of stomach Arrangements and finds them a certain cure not only for sour stomach, but by promptly digest ing the food they create flesh and strengthen the action of the heart and liver. They are not a cathartic, but in- tended only for stomach diseases and weakness and will be found reliable In all stomach troubles except cancer or the stomach All druggists sell Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets at 50 cents per pack age.

 Virginia City, New, in the flush days of the great Comstock Lode:
 A man stroled down c street one June evening and then struck into a trail which led upward along the slant of Mount Davidson. He was a large, broad-shouldered, full-bearded man. At a point where the trail diverged he stopped as if for a short rest, and. with his hat in his hand, turned to view the scene below him.
 The sun was approaching the horizon. Everywhere the sky was a cobalt blue, save in the far distance, where it changed to delicate purple and gradu- ally melted into long, low streaks of red, gold and shimmering crimson. Looking down the canyon, Sugar Loaf stood darkly silhouetted against the brilliant background, and past it-miles further down and aWay-the plains lay sleeping in the evening haze. Tn the middle dis tance the big, red buildings of the shafts and mills, with their tall steamboat smokestacks, were sharply outlined; on every side the white dumps seemed to flow out of the sagebrush hills, and be- meath him clustered the motley and jumbled mass of houses tackled to the steep mountain side-Nevada's chief city
 Another man trudged up the trail and paused when he deserted the figure ahead of him. He was not cast in the J,a af Iie fo ho- trayed the Latin blood. There was a look of vindictive envy in his small, bead like eyes as he watched the con tented man above him. He wondered if all the things they said about Jim San
