THE PROBLEM SOLVED.
THE NEW MEDICAL DISCOVERY
TESTED.
Results of the Test in Various Forms
of Dyspepsia.

Chronic indigestion or dyspepsia,
while a. very common trouble, has for
some time been looked upon by able
physicians as q very serious thing, and
that no time should be lost in treating
it properly at the start, because recent
researches have shown that the most
serious, fatal and incurable diseases
have their origin in simple dyspepsia
or indigestion
Diabetes is simply one form of indi-
gestion, the sugar and starchy food not
being assimilated by the digestive or
CANS In Brights disease the albumen
is not properly assmlated.
While consumption and dyspepsia
are twin diseases it is beyond question
that dyspepsia makes a fertile soil for
the seeds of consumption.
But the trouble has been to find a
remedy that could be depended upon to
cure dyspepsia, as it is VIGOROUSLY OBJ
stinate and difficult to cure.
This has been the question. which
has puzzled physicians and dyspeptics
alike, until the question was solved
three years ago by the appearance of
the new dyspepsia cure in the medical
world known as Stuart's Dyspepsia
Tablets, which it was claimed was a
certain reliable cure for every form of
stomach trouble.
Physicians, however, would not ac-
cept such statements without first Civ
ing the new remedy many tests and
carefully observing results
For three years the remedy has been
thoroughly tested in every section of
the country and with surprising and
satisfactory results.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets can hon
estly be claimed to be a specific, a radi-
cal lasting cure for indigestion in the
various forms of acid dyspepsia or sour
stomach, gas or wind on the stomach.
too much bile, undue fullness or depres-
sion after eating and similar symptoms
resulting from disordered digestion.
Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets were not
placed before the public until this
three years trial left no doubt as to
their value and they have recently been
placed in the trade and can be found
at all druggists at the nominal price of
so cents per package.
No false claims are made for the
remedy. 1t will not cure rheumatism.

that is every form of stomach trouble.

The Advice of Many Temperance
Workers,

Many times while I was an active
worker in the W c. T L. and was
urging men 10 give up drinking, 1
would feel ashamed Of my own slavery
10 coffee.
Many times I would determine to
give it up but 1t had such a mastery
over me that became sick and dis

was subject to periodical sick spells
at the stomach, dizziness in the head,
and cross and fretful mornings. About
six months ago I began to use Postum
Cereal Food Coffee and I have not had
q sick spell since, no dizziness and 1
feel as cheerful and calm as good
Christian ought to feel. I am greatly
improved in health and am growing
stout.
I am so delighted with the Postum
that recommend It to every one who
comes to our table and some who do
not. A short time ago. a relative Wis
iting us from Columbia, Ga, was
served with q nice hot cup at breakfast
without being told that it was Postum
Food Coffee. After breakfast ] asked
him how he liked our coffee. He said
he liked It better than any cup Of cof-
fee he had ever drunk, for it had a lit
tie peculiar taste that fitted his palate
perfectly He wanted to know what
brand we used and I told him it was
Postum Food Coffee, no berry coffee
at all. He could not be persuaded that
I was not teasing him until I got the
package and showed him all about it,
He bought quite a little to take home
TO his family.
You may depend upon it that the
cup he had was well made and I am
very particular to know that Postum
is boiled, for that is a thing that coffee
make Postum by a little simmering,
can always tell whether it has been
boiled long enough by the taste. If it
is rich, strong and good, it has had
boiling enough to bring the taste out
IF It is not, it had only been on the
stove a short time.
Ny next door neighbour Mrs. Sweet,
had to give up coffee and is now using
Postum. She and all her family are
delighted with it. The family of Rev.
MI Cassadant, at New Ringford Pa
have abandoned coffee and tea entirely
at their table and use Postum and are
enthusiastic in it's praise. Mrs. ]. Nor

FOSTER PERJURY CASE.
An Apparent Scheme Not to Prose
cute Is Squelched by Judge
MnCan

The case of Fred Foster, the horseman,
charged with perjury, was called in Judge
Mogan's court yesterday morning for pre-
liminary examination. Attorney Sweeney
appeared for the prosecution and asked
for another continuance, remarking that
there was not much in the case. The
Judge said there was just as much in
the warrant was sworn out, and 1t would
have to go on. He granted continuance
till 9 o'clock
for the prosecution and asked for a con-
tinuance, as Judge Conlan, a material
witness, had not been subpenaed. After
discussion the case was continued till this
morning.
There is a rumor afloat that Foster and
A. Howard, the Australian plunger, have
settled their differences and the cases will
not be prosecuted on either side. This
was denied by Towards attorney.
