OATARRH OF STOMACH.
A Pleasant, simple, but Safe and Effectual
Cure for 1t.

Cure for 1t.
Catarrh of the stomach has long
been considered the next thing to
incurable. Fhe usual symptoms
are full of bloating sensation
after eating, accompanied some
times with sour or watery risings,
a formation of gases, causing pres
sure on the heart and lungs and
difficult breathing; headaches,
tickle appetite, nervousness and
general played out, languid feel
ing.
There is often a foul taste in
the mouth, coated tongue and if the
interior of the stomach could be
seen it would show a Shiny, in
famed condition.
The cure of this common and
obstinate trouble is found in a.
treatment which causes the food
to be readily, thoroughly digested
before it has time to ferment and
irritate the delicate mucous sur
faces of the stomach. To secure
a prompt and healthy digestion is
the one necessary thing TO do and
when normal digestion is secured
the catarrhal condition will have
disappeared.
According to DR.. Harlanson, the
safest and best treatment is to use
after each meal a tablet. compOS-
ed Of Diatase, Aseptic Pepsin, a lit
tie Nux. Golden Seal and fruit
acids. These tablets can now be
found at all drug stores under the
name of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tab
let's, and not being a patent medi-
cine can be used with perfect safe
ty and assurance that healthy APP
petite and thorough digestion will
follow their regular use after
meals.
Mr.. N. J. Booher, of 271O Dear
born ST., Chicago, ILL.,, writes:
"Catarrh is a local condition re-
sulting from neglected cold in
the head, whereby the lining mem
brane of the nose becomes indamed
and the poisonous discharge there
from passing backward into the
throat reaches the stomach, thus
producing catarrh of the stomach.
Medical authorities prescribed for
me for three years for catarrh of
stomach without cure, but to-day
am the happiest OF men after
using only one box of Stuart's
Dyspepsia Tablets. I cannot find
appropriate words to express my
good feeling. l have found flesh,
appetite and sound rest from their
USE"
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets is the
safest preparation as we'll as the
simplets and most convenient rem
edy for any form Of indigestion,
catarrh Of stomach, biliousness,
sour stomach, heartburn and
bloating after meals.
Send for little book mailed free,
on stomach troubles, by addressing

tablets can be found at all drug
stores.

DIS0RDERLY BOYS
Practically Took Possession Of the
Ohio River Railroad Station, at
Benwooi, Monday Night--.0ther
BenWo0d News.

The boys who assembled at the Ohio
River railroad station at Benwood,
Monday night, for the purpose OF
meeting the returning soldiers OF the
First West Virginia Regiment, were re-
ported yesterday by Jesse Kimpton, the
Ohio River agent at that city, as hav-
ing been the most disorderly set OF
people that ever entered that depot. 1t
was after Agent Kimpton had returned
to his home, leaving Night Operator
Moore in charge of the staten, that the
boys began to assemble. MIR. kimptCn
reports that the crowd numbered about
twenty, and that the language they
used in the presence OF several ladieS,
who were in the waiting-room at the
time, was grossly indicate. TLey also
twirled snow balls at each other in
and about the depot continually during
the while they spent in waiting for the
arrival Of the train, and, as Mr.. kimp-
ton puts it, practically took possession
OF the station, despite the eI1orts OF
Operator Moore TO restore order. On
account Of the snCW-balling and the
disgusting language used, it was found
necessary to give the ladies seats IN
the private ONCE Of the depot. MIR.
Kimpton has reported the affair to
superintendent Hamilton, of the Ohio
River railroad, which latter Official Will
acs accordingly in the matter. The
names of some of the members CT the
disorderly delegation are known, and
it is very likely that the police, hav-
ing been notified, will make arrests

New York, February Oscar Gard
ner, the Omaha Kid. defeated Solly
Smith, of Los Angeles, very easily in
six rounds, at the Lenox Athletic Club
tonight. Smith was unsteady on his
feet from the opening round and was
unusually wild. Some persons thought
that he was under the influence of some
drug but those close to his corner were
unable to say whether this was so or
not. Gardner was not in the best of
condition, either. but he fought re-
markedly well and outclassed his oppo-
nent at the first tap of the bell.
In the sixth round Smith went down
four times and as he was going down
the last time, Oscar sent a right smash
to the jaw. which did not land until
Smith was on his knees.
Smith rolled over on his back and
was counted out, while his seconds
yelled foul" and many Of the specta-
tors took up the cry. The blow was
ON it's way as Smith was going and
could not be held back by Gardner, who
had no intention of fouling. Referee
White ruled that no foul had occurred
and decided in Gardeners favor. There
was very little kicking over the YER

Round Gardner was first to lead,
landing a right slap on Smiths back.

four seconds.
