PECULIAR PoiSONS.
Generated In the Human Body-The Result
of Imperfect Digestion OF Food.

OF imperfect Digestion OF foOu
Every living thing. plant or animal,
contains within itself the germs OF
certain decay and death.
In the human body these germs of
death (called by scientists Ptomaines)
are usually the result of imperfect
digestion of food; the result of indi-
gestion or dyspepsia.
The stomach, from abuse, weakens,
does not promptly and thoroughly di-
gest the food. The result is a heavy,
sodden mass which ferments (the first
process of decay poisoning the blood.
making 1T thin, weak and lacking in
red corpuscles: poisoning the brain,
causing headaches, pain in the eyes.
Bad digestion weakens the heart.
causing palpitation and finally bring
ing on disease of this very important
organ.
Poor digestion pOisOns the kidneys,
causing Bright's disease and diabetes.
And this is so because every organ,
every nerve depends upon the stom-
ach alone for nourishment and re-
newal, and weak digestion show sit self
not only in loss of appetite and flesh,
but in weak nerves and muddy COM
pleXion.
The great English scientist. Huxley,
said the best start in life is n sound
stomach. Weak stOmachs fail to di-
gest food properly, because they lack
the proper quantity of digestive acids
Oactic and hydrochloric) and pepto-
genie products; the most sensible
remedy in all cases of indigestion, is
to take after each meal one or two
of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets, be-
cause they supply in pleasant,
harmless form all the elements that
weak stomachs lack.
The regular use of Stuart's Dyspep-
STA Tablets will cure any form of
stomach trouble, except cancer of the
stomach.
They increase flesh, insure pure
blood, strong nerves, bright eye and
clear complexion, because all these
result only from wholesome food well
digested.
Nearly all druggists sell Stuart's
Dyspepsia Tablets at 80 cents full
sized package. or by mail enclosing
price to Stuart company, Marshall.

well known speciality artists who fill

completed and reported to the house
Hepburn moved to recommit it with
instructions to report it back with the
Nicaragua canal bill Incorporated This

abandoned all hope after his defeat

declared out of order by the speaker.
whereupon Hepburn appealed and Payne
