Word comes from the University OF
Kansas that the janitOr of Snow Hall
has discovered a remarkable species
of the tailless comet. This comet was
for a long time thought by the leading
astronomers of the country to be an or
binary arc lighting star, but the JAM
tor. who quite accidentally looked at 1t
one night through a glass of some
thing or other, discovered it to be
genuine tailless comet. The credit OF
this discovery thus belongs to Kansas,
which has never been less in anything
than one, two, three.
From New York comes the intelli-
genoe that a great editor has at last
solved the problem of the neWsless
newspaper. Each day he fills his pa
per with stories known as pipes" and
large pictures of kissing bugs and
other criminals. 1t is not thought,
however. that this style of newspaper
will become altogether popular with
the plain people, who do not live Tor

Why the Cubans Laugh.

President Mckinley made a speech
in Minneapolis last October in the
course of which he said: THEY our
colonies and dependencies, will not be
Governed as vassals or serfs or slaves
they will be given a government OF
liberty, regulated by law, honestly ad-
ministered, without oppressive exac-
tions." When the Cubans read over
that speech and then reflect upon
Nicely and the postoffice gang it is no
wonder that they laugh derlsively.

ONLY A SUGGESTION.
But IL Has Proven of Interest and
value to Thousands.

Common sense would suggest that IL
one wishes TO become feshy and plump Ii
can only result from the food we eat and
digest and that food should be albuminous
or fiesh-forming food, like eggs, beefsteak
and cereals; in other words. the kinds OF
food that make flesh are the foods which
form the greater part of our daily bills of
fare.
But the trouble is that while we eat
enough and generally too much, the stom-
ach, from abuse and overwork. does not
properly digest and assirnilate ID, which is
the reason so many people remain thin
and under weight: the digestive organs
do nos completely digest the iesh-forming
beefsteak and eggs and similar wholesome
food
There are thousands of such who are
really confirmed dyspeptics, although they
may have no particular pain or inconveni-
ence from their stomachs.
II such persons would lay their preju-
dices aside and make a regular practice
of taking. after each meal. one or two
of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets, the food
would be quickly and thoroughly digested
because these tablets contain the natural
peptones and diastase which every weak
stomach lacks. and by supplying this want
the stomach is soon enabled TO regain its
natural tone and vigor.
Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets digest every
form OF fesh-forming food. meat. eggs
bread and potatoes, and this is the reason
they so quickly build UP. strengthen and
invigorate thin, dyspeptic men, women
and children.
Invalids and children, even the most deli
cate, use them with marked benefit as
they contain no strong. irritating drugs.
no cathartic nor any harmful Ingredient
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets is the most
successful and most widely known OF any
remedy for stomach troubles because IL
is the most reasonable and scientific OF
modern medicines.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are sold by
every druggist in. the United States and
Canada. as well as in Great Britain, at so
cents for complete treatment.
Nothing further is required to cure any
stomach trouble or TO make thin nervous
dyspeptic people strong, plump and well.

A unique and valuable addition to
the ''Lares and Penates" OF our
Southland homes is an automoblll1on
vehiche known as the "Cha1r1ette'.
This new piece Of moving mechanism
is domestic wonder. It carries its
owner all over the world safely and
without cost. AS piece OF furniture
it fills the bill and pays for itself twice
week all the year round. There is
no single item in the home that att
ords each and every member OF the
family, aud every visitor as well, SO
much comfort and satisfaction as a
properly equipped Charlotte. It viz
tually displaces hammocks, swings,
rockers, lounges and the like because
it has the merits of each and all these
things and the Objectionable features
and discomforts of none of them.
Hotels having Chairiettes in place
find them in constant and satisfactory
use by their guests, winter and sum
1ner, in doors and out. And so it is;
the visitor comes looking
For the house that has
Charlotte on it's piazza
And he goes for it just as a
Bee goes it for flower
The Charlotte is unquestionably
the most restful and satisfactory veh1-
Gle known to the invalid. In it he
adjusts himself to any desired position
and finds whatever he wants within
reach of his hand. There is hardly
any employment that can be engaged
in by man or woman, while seated,
that cannot be carried on with equal
facility while in the Charlotte. wheth-
CT it be in motion or at rest. The oc-
cupant can write while riding as read
lily as land with far greater comfort
than) when seated It desk or table.
His writing materials are just where
he wants them and cannot get away,
It seems the easiest thing in the
world for the charmed possessor OF
Charlotte to burst into song wolfe en-
losing it's delightful poetry OF notion3
l read and rest; | sleep and dream
And work and loaf my life away,
Floating gainst or with the stream
In Charlotte by night and day.
l write and talk; l think and smoke
But never perpetrate joke.
I'm wit l IN Just about dead broke }
When in my Charlotte.
When friends approach with bills
unpaid
And on my pockets make raid,
mount my chair, no whit afraid
Of any dun or trouble.
And so when any ills assail
l trim my Charlotte and sail
Away upon the bal1ny gale
Like thistle down or bubble.
If the reader will call, on any pleas
ant afternoon in the near future, at
the little high stoop cottage on Ben
nett St., near the old brown school
house, he may learn something to his
advantage, and may get into the
Charlotte that is hitched there wait

from Southern Pines to Bunker Hill
or from Dan to Beersheba--just as he
likes.
Health, comfort, love and peace

In homes where Chairettes are found.
