HE TOUCHED THE BUTTON
County Clerk Denny Causes a STAN
Dede in the City Court.

pede in the City Court.
An innocent and thoughtless act of
County Clerk Denny's caused the officials
about the city court room a great deal OF
trouble and annoyance yesterday. There
is an electric bell in the city court room
which connects with the county clerks CT
flee and when anyone telephones TO some
one in the city court room, whoever an
swers the phone just presses the button
and rings the bell down stairs, whereuhon
whoever is wanted goes upstairs tn answer
the phone. Yesterday the bell down
stairs rung and Harden Ebey chased up
stairs and tried the phone, but no ore
answered. Then he went back down.
stairs and the bell was still ringing. He
ran upstairs again and tried the phone,
but no one answered. Then he asked CEN
trail about it and central said no one had
called the city court. He went down
stairs again. and by this time Marshal
Tom voss had come in from the court
room and started upstairs to answer the
phone. not knowing that Ebey had been
upstairs twice before. Voss broke for the
county clerks Office and answe ed the
phone. No one answered him. He tooK
about the same course that Ebey did and
went back downstairs. The bell was still
ringing. by this time the entire court
got interested. The almost constant ring
ing of the bell was annoying Judge Kirk
and the attorneys. Finally a committee
was sent upstairs and all tried the phone,
but no one was wanting anybody IN the
city court room or anywhere else. It then
became evident that something was wrong
with the electrical apparatus whicn con-
trol.ed the bell Downstairs. Someone
thought of the little button. and gong TO
SEQ about it, they found County Clerk
Denny backed up against the wall arguing
politics with as equally an enthusiastic
man as himself. and 1t was discovered that
every time Denny would stoop forward to
make an impressive gesture the end of bis
spinal column would come in contact with
the button which rung the hell downstairs
The hotter the argument waxed the often
er the bel! would ring. Mr.. Denny was
pulled away from the wall and the trouble
was ended.

THE OLD WAY
Of Treating Dyspepsia and Indi-
gestion by Dieting a Dam
gerous and Useless One.

We say the old way, but really It Is a
very common one at the present time and
many dyspeptics, and physicians as well,
consider the first step TO take in at
tempting TO cure indigestion is to diet.
either by selecting certain foods and re-
iect.ng others or 10 greatly diminish the
quantity usually taken: in other words.
the starvation plan is supposed by many
TO be TIT first essential.
The almost certain failure Of the starva-
ton cure has been proven time and again.
but still the moment dyspepsia makes its
appearance a course OF dieting is at once
advised.
All this is radically wrong. 1t is foolish
and uRscientific to recommend dieting 10 a
man suffering from dyspepsia, because in
digestion Itself starves every organ. every
nerve and every fibre In the body.
What the dyspeptic wants is abundant
nutrition, which means plenty OF good
wholesome, well cooked food, ana same
thing 20 assist the weak stomach 10 digest
it. This Is exactly the purpose for when
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are adapted
and this is the method by which they cure
the worst cases CT dyspepsia: in other
words the patient eats plenty Of whole
