the OLD WAY.

OF TREATING DYSPEPSIA AND fNDIGEcTroS ~
DIETING A DANGEROUS AND USELEss ONE
We say the old way but really II Is a very
common one at the present time and many dys-
peptics and physicians well consider the first
step TO take in attempting 10 cure indigestion
liz TO diet either by selecting certain foods and
rejecting others, TO greatly diminish the
quantity usually taken. In other words the star.
vation plan is supposed by many 10 be the nrst
essential
The almost certain failure OF the starvation
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. IL Is foolish and
unscientinc 10 recommend dieting 10 man
suffering from dyspepsia. because indigestion
itself starves every organ. every nerve and
every fibre In the body.
What the dyspeptic wants Is abundant nutrf-
ton. which means plenty OF good. wholesome,
well cooked food and something 10 assist
the weak stomach TO digest IT, This is exactly
the purpose for which Stuarts Dyspepsia Tab
let's are adapted and this is the method by
which they cure the worst cases OF dyspepsia,
in other words. the patient eats plenty OF whole
some food and Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets d.
gests II for him In this way the system 10
nousished and the overworked stomach rested,
because the tablets will digest the food whether
the stomach works or not. One OF these tab
let's will digest 5000 grains OF meat eggs.
Your druggist will tell you that Stuart's Tab

LAYING DUST WITH OIL
TT HAS PASSED THE EXPERIMENTAL
STAGE FOR ROADBEDS.
IN USE ON MANY OF THE PENNSYLVANIA LINES

IN USE ON MANY OF THE PENNSYLVANIA LINES
WORKS ECONOMIES IN RAILRoADING.
Camden. ~ J.. June lathe results gained from
sprinkliny the roadbeds with OIL which the Penn
svvania Railroad Company began last year have
nlaced the method entirely beyond the experimental
stage and II has become a fixture In roadway main
tenance.
The idea originated with J. II. Nichol chief engi-
neer OF the West Jersey and Seashore Railroad his
friends say. and first tried early last season.
Since then the appliances for. the application OF
the oil have been improved and effects studied.
ii, the use Of the oil has been reduced practically 10
an exact science. The dust on the road to the
seashore the light sandy soil OF South Jersey
was perplexing problem to the railway companies,
for on the -a-minute" trains with coach win
dows open. passengers blinded and choked by
the clouds OF thick dust that enveoped and filed
the cars.
Mr Nichols idea taken up merely as a des-
nerate chance but IT quickly demonstrated its
fulness and now all the Pennsylvania lines In this
district are relieved from dust by the process.
Other companies in various parts OF the country
have adopted the idea.
Mr. Nichol says its claims for economy may be
enumerated thus Saving Of wear on running parts
Of locomotives and cars saving OF destruction OF
contents OF car. draperies freight etc. elimination
~ vegetation. weeds. grasses etc. from roadbed,
saving track labor preservation OF crossties and
fewer hot boxes Its other advantages he says. are
Greater comfort and convenience TO travellers in
creased safety as washou;s far less likely and
FROST Is kept out OF the ground. thus preventing
beaving tracks.
