IT CAN'T BE BONE


No One Can Kcmain Well, so Chroni
Disease Can he Cured Unless the Stomach
is First Made STRONG aud Vigorous.
This is plain because every or
gan in the body depends on the
stomach for its nourishment.
Nerve, bone, sinew, blood are made
from the food which the stomach
converts to our use.
How useless to treat disease with
this, that and the other remedy
and neglect the most important OF
ali, the, stomach.
The earliest symptoms of indi-
gestion are sour risings, bad taste
in the mouth, gas in stomach and
bowels, palpitation, all-gone feel
ing, faintness, headaches. constipa-
ton; later comes loss of flesh, con-
sumption, liver and heart troubles,
kidney diseases, nervous prostra-
ton, all of which are the indirect
result of poor nutrition
Any person suffering from indi-
gesticn should make it practice
to take after each meal one Of
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets, allow
Ing 1t to dissolve IN the mouth and
thus mingle with the saliva and
enter the stomach in the most
natural way. These Tablets are
highly recommended by DR.. Jenni-
son because they are composed of
the natural digestive acids and
fruit essences which assist the
stomach in digesting all wholesome
food before it has time to ferment
and sour.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are
sold by druggists, full sized pack
ages at so cents. They are also ex-

GIVING CREDIT TO WOMEN.

Two monetary questions are occupy
ing a good deal of attention in England
just now. The one refers to the liabil-
ity of a father for his daughters debts,
the other to the giving of credit to mar
ried women. A girl recently obtained
a wedding outfit, or part of it, on credi-
and said her father would pay The ia
Their, however, when the bill came in,
said that he knew nothing about it,
and refused payment. Questions have
therefore arisen as to whether under
such circumstances it is possible to
compel payment by the parent or
whether the girl could be prosecuted
for obtaining goods under false pre-
lenses.
With regard to the giving OF credit
to married women, so many husbands
and shopkeepers seem to have suffered
on this point that a learned judge pro-
poses that a register should be intro
duced wherein husbands might repudi-
ate the debts of their wives. The sug~
~gestion seems feasible and if carried OUT
might have the threefold ADVANTAGE or
saving women from undue extrava-
gance, saving husbands from being
recklessly run into debt and saving
merchants from bad debts.

TRIBUTE TO HIS FRIEND, THE
ENEMY.

Champ Clark paid this tribute to
Speaker Reed, in letter to the Jeffer-
son City Tribune, the other day:
Thomas Bracket Reed, of Maine
taken in all, was the most remarkable
character in Congress. With the single
exception of Henry Ward Beecher,
regard Mr.. Reed as the most brilliant
| man | ever saw. and l am not certain
that even Beecher ought to be ex-
cepted Reed is big man all over
and in every way. He is a giant both
physically and mentally. He has a
large, massive, shapely head and in
side that skull there as much brains
as any man of this generation carries
about on his shoulders His tongue is a
two-edged sword, and he has perhaps
INDUCED in more sarcasm than any
other man that ever served in Congress
except John Randolph of Roanoke. In
addition to being the most sarcastic
man in public life, Mr.. Reed is what
Randolph most assuredly was not, and
that is a humorist Of the first rank--a
quality which greatly tempers his sar-
casm. A compilation of his witticisms,
humor and sarcasm would make quite
a readable book. Mr. Reed is more

and philosophical articles l ever read
in my life was one contributed by him
to magazine under the queer title,
THE Conquest of Fear" After read
ing it twice, l asked him how he ever
thought of the subject. He said that
it came to him by witnessing a horse
work himself into an agony of fear at

strange to me that the newspapers have
not copied and exploited that article
The most philosophical disquisition on

ting in the Speakers cair, and while
some statesman was delivering a set
speech. He did it for mental recreation
to relieve his mind. | have often re-

batim that exquisite monologue-for
that is precisely what it was, not con-
versation, but monologue-on the So

contribution to political and philosoph-
zeal literature if printed just as it fell
from his lips without changing a word
or a syllable"

London, May 20.-The first result of
the divorce of Lady Rose Leigh, q.
daughter of the Marquis of Abergaven-
ny, who was found guilty Of adultery
with the young Earl of Cottonham, is
that the Earl hes resigned the MASTER
ship of the Bicester Hunt and has ad-

Lady Rose, who was divorced last
Thursday, was one of the famous twin
sisters, both being beautiful tall girls.
The other twin, Lady Violet, obtained
a divorce from Lord Cowley last year
and has since remarked.
