IT MERITS ATTENTION.
fJEW PREPARATION WHICH
CURES DYSPEPSIA AND
STOMACH TROUBLE.
Remarkable Curative Properties.


A new remedy which may revo-
lutionize the treatment OF stomach
troubles, has recently been placed
before the public and bears the en-
dorsement OF many leading physi-
clans and scientific men.
The remedy is net a wonderful
secret discovery, nor a patent med
icine, neither is it claimed to cure
anything except indigestion and
stomach troubles. with which nine
tenths of our nation are afflicted.
The remedy is in the form OF
pleasant tasting tablets or loZenges
containing vegetable and fruit es-
sences, pure aseptic pepsin free
from animal impurities bismuth
and Golden Seal; they are sold by
druggists generally under the name
of StuarI's Dyspepsia Tablets.
Many interesting experiments
made with these tablets show that
they possess remarkable digestive
power, one grain of the active
principle being sufficient to thor
oughly digest 5000 times its own
weight of lean meat, eggs, oatmeal
Or similar wholesome foods, these
tablets do not act. on the bowels
like after-dinner pills, nor in fact
do they act upon any particular
organ, but the manner in which
they cure all forms OF indigestion
is tais: They act entirely upon
the food eaten. digesting it COM
pletely, nourishing every tissue
and nerve in the body; they SIM
ply perform the work OF digestion,
thus giving the weak stomach rest
and assistance sufficient to enable
it to recover its normal strength.
This is the reason so many pre-
tended cures have signally failed;
they do not furnish the digestive
power which is the one thing above
all others that the stomach Of the
dyspeptic lacks, and unless that
lack is supplied, it is waste OF
time to attempt. to restore the en-
feebled stomach by means of ton
les" stomach bitters,'' and pills
no permanent good can result from
their use.
If the stomach can be rested and
assisted in the work Of digestion it
will very soon recover; this is the
secret and the whole secret of the
remarkable success Of Stuart's Dys-
pepsia Tablets, a remedy practical
ly unknown year ago and now
the most popular, widely used
dyspepsia remedy, everywhere a
success secured almost entirely on
its merits, as it has never been ex-
tensively advertised.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are
now sold by druggists everywhere
at so cts. per package; if he hasn't
them in stock he will order them
for you from his wholesale house.
They are made by the F. A. Stu
art Co.. chemists, Marshall, Mich,
who will be pleased to send infor-
nation and testimonials from ev-
cry State in the union.

BOWLING

With Their Handicap The Weiisburg Boys
Managed to Win Every Game From the
All Star Wheeling Trams-rhe scores.
The Welkburg bowlers came down
yesterday TO meet the All Star Wheel
ing team. and demonstrated to the
local players conclusively that Wheel
Ing is not $50 pins stronger than
Wellsburg. The local club did not win
game in the six which were played.
In future inter-city contests the handi-
cap will probably be made smaller. The
visitors showed considerable improve
ment in their work since the series of
games played by the Wheeling team in
Wellsburg. The local players showed
their superiority, however, inasmuch as
Wellsburg would not have won a single
game without the $50 pins handicap.
The afternoon games resulted as fol-
lows.

There is still another point on which
base my conviction OF the success of
the n c. A, and it is one which has
been overlooked by the mapority of peo-
pie. When the professionals made the
break from the league control at Tren-
ton last fall, a good many of the riders
We're rather anxious lest their action
might be construed by the manufactur-
ers whose wheels they were under con-
tract to ride as good cause for break
ing their agreements and refusing to
pay them their salaries. Some did
have interviews with their employers
in regard to the affair, and the result
was that, as far as am aware, not one
man was told that hemust rideunder

his mount and salary. 1t is very sig
nificant straw when big manufacturers

Raise the Standard.

On account of the incompetency Of
the many young men and women who
have taken up school teaching as a
profession throughout this common
wealth, State Superintendent Nathan

standard Of scholarship. He has sent
circular to the County Superintend-
ents calling their attention to the
matter, from which the following is an
abstract:
"The Department of Public III
struction desires to commend the ef-
forts OF the Superintendent to raise
the standard Of scholarship among the
teachers holding provisional certif

cants holding certificates is largely ir
excess Of the demand for teachers

lowest grades of certificates whils
Others possessing superior skill ant

STATE TREASURER.

An effort has been made here BY
the Republican and the leaders of
the Republican party machine, to
make it appear that the nomination
of Representative Greasy for State
Treasurer, by the recent Democrat
ic convention, has fallen fiat, and
that it was received in this county
with coldness and Indifference.
Stress has been laid upon the fact
that no ovation, with brass band
accompaniment, was rendered Mr..
Greasy at his home town on his re-
turn from Harrisburg. OF course,
it is well understood that these re-
ports are not expected to affect any
thing here in Columbia county,
where Mr.. Greasy is so we'll known
and deservedly popular, but the ar
ticle in the Republican will be used
by the press bureau of the Repub.
lican state committee, and sent
broadcast over the state, to show
how weak Greasy is in his own
county. This shows one thing at
least, and that is that the Republi-
cans are afraid of Greasy, and so
want to belittle and weaken his
candidacy as much as possible.
As to the reception business, it
was not known on what train Mr..
Greasy would return from Harris.
burg, and there was no time for
preparation after it was known.
No effort has since been made, be.
cause the political campaign has
not yet opened, and it is too soor
for a demonstration.
We believe that the people Of thi:
state have decided to reform the
abuses that have prevailed in the
State Treasury for many years un
der Republican machine admins
tration, and they know that Farme,
Greasy is an honest man, and thi
leads to the belief that his election
as State Treasurer is more than
possibility, and that is what tn
Quay stalwart editor Of the Repab
Hean is afraid of.

Land Patents.

The Legislature at its session of
1899 passed an Act authorizing the
Secretary of Internal Affairs to settle
with the owners of unpatented lands
for the balance of purchase money,
interest and fees due the State on the
payment of SIS, in each case.
In nearly all the counties of the
State there are large number of un-
patented tracts, or those the titles to
which have not been completed from
the Commonwealth by the granting OF
patents.
BY the passage of the Act above re
ferred to, the owners of these lands
are now enabled to make settlement
Tor a small fraction of the amount due
uhder prior existing laws, and upon
the early execution Of applications,
for which the Department of Internal
Affairs at Harrisburg, will furnish the
blanks, the chain Of title may be com,
pleted by the granting of patents Of
the Commonwealth directly to the
present owners Of such unpatented
lands.

legal profession to this recent law, fol
