DYSPEPTICS REJOICE.
Results OF the New Cure for Indigestion
and Dyspepsia.

DR. Horton saia recently in an article
on the Stomach and its most prevailing
disease ID dyspepsia, That very few peO-
pie today possess healthy, sound stom-
ach. And this class requires no aid TO
digestion, while the other portion, which
figures fully 80 per cent ought not TO
force digestion in diseased stomach, as
blood produced in such conditions will
eventually contaminate the whole sys-
ten. Medicine has been comparatively
at "a standstill as 10 "a reliable treatment
for stomach diseases In all of their mani
fold forms. although many preparations
are offered to sufferers. yet their use Is
usually more perilous than delay"
But the saying that necessity is the
mother OF invention seems evidently
verified in Prof. brakes production Of
his marvellous treatment known as
brakes Dyspepsia Cure aud Nerve Re-
storer. This well-spring OF life is flow
ing into thousands of homes today;
many who have tried nearly every
thing with little or no relief, are now
rejoicing over the results Of this new
method treatment, for in this treatment
the idea of tying sufferers down to an
endless doping Of drugs and nostrums
is entirely lost sight of, as results from
its use in bad complicated cases show
that all that is required is "A little per-
sistency in following out the plain in
structions which accompany each treat
ment, when a speedy and permanent
cure will invariably be the result. For

Women Should Know 1t.

Many women suffer untold agony and
misery because the nature of their dis
ease is not correctly understood. They
have been led to believe that womb
trouble or female weakness OF some
scat is responsible for the many ills
that beset womankind.
Neuralgia, nervousness, headache,
puffy or dark circles under the eyes,
rheumatism, dragging pain or dull
ache in the back, weakness or bearing
down sensation, prufuse or scanty sup
ply of urine with sSbng odor, frequent
desire to pass it with scalding or burn
ing sensation, sediment in it after
standing in bottle or common glass for
twenty-four hours, are signs OF kidney
and bladder trouble.
The above symptoms are often at
tributed by the patient herself or by
her physician To female weakness or
womb trouble. Hence, so many fail to
obtain relief, because they are treating,
not the disease itself, but a reflection
Of the primary cause, which is kidney
trouble.
In fact, women as well as men are
made miserable with kidney and blad-
der trouble and both need the same
remedy.
DR.. Kilmer's Swamp Root is the
great discovery of the eminent kidney
and bladder specialist, and is easy to
get at any drug store for fifty cents or
one dollar.

OUR NEW YORK LETTER.
The Etiquette Of Table d'Hote Dinner.
Wanted Her Mamma-sliok
Messenger Boys.
Especial Correspondence


Every innovation in social amuse.
ments in New York brings with IL the
necessity of determining just the way
in which IL Is to be treated. Last year
when the informal vaudeville entertain
ments at the Astoria were suddenly d.
vulged to All unsuspecting public the
amount of discussion which they ore
ated was one serious drawback to their
success. Whether the men should or
should not smoke, whether the women
should wear hats or not, whether IL the
men did smoke they should do it when
they were sitting in the company OF
women-these were some of the ques-
tions for which perplexed spectators
sought an answer in vain. In the alb
senoe Of any positive decision in these
matters people did all kinds of things
according to their individual judg
ment A similar state of affairs con-
fronts a section of the social world this
year. The dinners given in Fifth ave-
nue. restaurant at $3 a head every Sun
day evening are in imitation of a popu
lar London fashion. These table d'hote
dinners are given in London at certain
restaurants at about the same price
charged here. The women who attend
them come in full evening dress, in ac-
cordance with the liberal English ideas
OH this subject. But the New York
caterer, who expected to have his din
ing rooms decorated with the presence
of women in evening dress, finds his ex-
pectations quite unfultilled. The women
are willing to come to dinner, but they
do not wear evening gowns, and they
have no idea of adopting any such cos
tune. Probably nine out of every ten
have paid more for their dresses than
the average London woman would have
paid when she appeared in her most
elaborate ball gown. But the proprietor
mourns because his expensive table
d'hote dinners must be eaten by women
in bonnets and hats, even if they are
the most modish and costly that the
Paris milliners can create.

Slick Messenger BOYS.


A regular traffic in Cancelled revenue
stamps, by which a number of messen-
ger boys, by collision with Wall street
brokers' were making considerable
money, has been discovered by the rev.
enue sleuths. The documentary stamps
have been offered by the lads at dis
count of from 20 to 80 per cent The
boys obtained the stamps they sold by
holding back the stamps given them by
brokers to place on sales tickets and
substituting in place of them stamps
which had formerly been used on sales
tickets and Cancelled without putting the
day of the month in capoeling mark
They would then sell the new stamps to
brokers. Some of the boys are said to have
made as much as 800 in one day by
this plan. OF course the plan could not
have been successful had not the boys
found ready market and been encour-
aged 10y the purchasers to bring more
stamps. The end is not yet, and it is
quite likely that some Of the tricky
spectators will be called TO explain
