cATARRH OF THE STOMACH.
a Pleasant, Simple but Safe and EnectuaI
Cure for 1T.

Catarrh of the stomach has long
been considered the next thing to in
durable. The usual symptoms are a
full or bloating sensation after eating,
accompanied with sour or watery ris-
ings, a formation of gases causing Il
pressure on the heart and lungs. an /
difficult breathing; headaches, tickle
appetite. nervousness and general
played out, languid feeling.
There is often Il foul taste in the
mouth, coated tongue and if the in
terror of the stomach could be seen
it would show Shiny, inflamed con-
dition.
The cure for this common and OBJ
stinate troI BILE is found in treat
ment which causes the food to be
readily, thoroughly digested before it
has has time to ferment and irritate
the delicate mucous surface of the
stomach. To secure prompt and
healthy digestion is the one necessary
thing 10 do and when normal diges-
ton is secured line catarrhal conditions
will have disappeared.
According to DIR. Harlanson the
safest and best treatment is to use
after each meal tablet, composed of
diastase, aseptic, pepsin, Il little nuN.
golden seal and fruit acids. These
tablets can now he found ut all drug
stores under the name of Stuart's
Dyspepsia Tablets, and not being Il
patent medicine can be used with per-
feet safety and assurance that healthy
appetite will follow their regular use
after meals.
n. j. Booher, of 2710 Dearborn
street. Chicago. ILL.,, says: ''Catarrh
is local condition resulting from
neglected cold in the head,
whereby the lining mem brane of the
nose becomes inllamed, and the pois-
onous discharge therefrom passing
back ward into the throat reaches the
stomach, thus producing cattarrh of
the stomach. Medical authorities
prescribed for me for three years for
catarrh of the stomach without cure,
but today am the happiest of men
after using only one box of Stuart's
Dyspepsia Tablets. | cannot find APP
propriate words to express my good
feeling. | have flesh, appetite and
sound rest from their use.'
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets is the
safest as well as the simplest and
most convenient remedy for any
form of Indigestion, eatarrh of the
stomach, biliousness, sour stomach,
heart burn and bloating after meals.

stomach troubles, by addressing F. A.

Moline Citizen Indicted for EmbezzIe-
ment Arrested at Detroit.
A telegram was received at the
sheriff's Office Saturday evening from
Chief of Police John Martinez, of De-
troit, stating that William f. Stevens,
of Moline, under indictment for en-
beZzlement, had been arrested there.
Sheriff l.. F. Cralle departed imme-
diately for Detroit to bring Stevens
back.
Ten indictments were returned
against Stevens, who is prominent
Moline citizen, by the January grand
jury. just before that body reported,
evidently suspecting criminal pro-
ceedings had been Instituted against
him, Stevens skipped cut. The au-
thorities have been pursuing him
since.
The embezzlement charges against
Stevens are the result of his
dealings as the representative of
several insurance companies at Mo-
line, it being alleged tdat he de-
frauded them out of large amounts of
money.
Stevens was convicted ut the Janu-
uary term in 1894 of criminally as
saulting Philomcna Berkens. The
appellate court reversed the verdict.
The defendant was then allowed to
plead guilty to n plain assault, and
escaped with n fine.

soldier, has been assigned to work in

his race is quick and active, and did
considerable to amuse his fellow pris-
oners on the Fourth of July, when they
were permitted to spend the forenoon in
the prison yard. He doesn't speak a
word of English and tried hard to find
some one with whom he could converse
IN Spanish. There are two prisoners at
the institution who speak Spanish fluent
ly, and Ortiz found them and spent
considerable time discussing prison life
and other matters with them. Later he
conflded to them that he was somewhat

Mrs May Wright Sewall, who has just
been elected president Of the Information
al Council of Women, is well fitted by
education, tastes and wide experience as
leader, of women along higher educa-
tional lines for the important public posi-
ton with which she has been honored.
For several years Mrs. Sewall has been
president of the National Council of
Women, and for a great many years her
public work has been devoted almost eX-
clusively to the furtherance of organiza-
ton among women. Mrs. Sewall was
born in Wisconsin and is a graduate of
Northwestern university In the class of
1866 1t was, however, one of her great
est griefs that she could not enter Yale
university, as her father had done, and
it was said that it was largely her sense
Of injustice in this matter that led her
to identify herself with the woman suf-
frage movement. After her graduation
she occupied important positions as
teacher until her marriage with Theodore
Sewall in 1880, when she and her hus-
band opened a classical school for girls
at Indianapolis, and she is still head of
