Southern KANSAS Fairs viii Form a
Combination This Near.

Col. Il. G. Toler has returned from To-
peka where he attended the meeting of
the Kansas Improved Live Stock associa-
ton and the annual meeting of the Kan
sas State Agriculture society. He saysa
that the meetings Of both associations
was the largest in their history An
attempt was made to hold meeting of
the secretaries of the South Kansas fair
associations There were not a sufficient
number present TO warrant a meeting and
It was decided TO call a regular meeting
to be held at Fredonia February 5. All
secretaries Of Southern Kansas-Oklahom
fair associations have been requested to
be present so that a circuit can be ar
ranged that Will be satisfactory to all
and so that there will be no conflicting
dates. If this IS done satisfactorily there
viii be no difficulty in attracting some Of
the best horses in the country by offering
good purses and a long string of races
The circuit viii close late in the fall with
the race meeting at Dallas. The Wichita

date very early in the season as many
think the meeting last year was held

AN OBJECT LESSON
In a Restaurant.

A physician puts the query: Have you
never noticed in any large restaurant at
lunch or dinner time the large number
of hearty, vigorous old men at the
tables; men whose ages run from 90 to %
years; many of them bald and all per-
haps gray, but none of them feeble or
senile?
Perhaps the spectacle is so common as
to have escaped your observation or COM
ment, but nevertheless it is an object
lesson which means something.
If you will notice what these hearty
old fellows are eating you will observe
that they are not munching bran crack
ers nor gtngerly picking their way
through a menu card of new tangled
health foods; on the contrary they seem
to prefer juicy roast of beef. properly
turned 1oin of mutton, and even the
deadly broiled lobster is not altogether
ignored.
The point of all this is that a vigorous
old age depends upon good digestion and
plenty of wholesome food and not upon
dieting and an endeayor to live upon
bran crackers.
There is a certain class Of food cranks
who seem to believe that meat, coffee
and many other good things are rank
poisons, but these cadaverous, sickly
looking individuals are walking con-
demnation of their own theories.
The matter in nutshell is that if the
stomach secretes the natural digestive
juices in sufficient quantity any whole
some food Will be promptly digested; if
the stomach does not do SO, and certain
foods cause distress one or two of
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets after each
meal will remove all difficulty because
they supply Just what every weak
stomach lacks. pepsin, hydro-chloric
acid, diatase and nux.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets do mot act
upon the bowels and in fact are not
strictly a medicine, as they act almost
entirely upon the food eaten, digesting 1t
thoroughly and thus gives much needed
rest and giving an appetite for the next
meal
OF people who travel nine out of ten
use Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets knowing
them to be perfectly safe to use at any
time and also having found out by ex-
perience that they are a safeguard
against indigestion in any form, and eat
ing as they have to- at all hours and all
kinds of food, the travelling public for
years have pinned their faith to Stuarts
Tablets.
All druggists sell them at 50 cents for
full sized packages and any druggist
from Maine to California, If his opinion
were asked. will say that Stuart's Dys

TRUE TO HIS FRIENDS.

SoEn4 paper has truly said that
Lon v. Stephens has been worse
abused and vilified than any man
who eyer occupied the high office OF
governor of Missouri. A tree can
only be correctly judged by the fruit
it bears A fair review OF Governor
Stephens official acts gives no just
cause for severe criticism. To err Is
human and no doubt he has made
some mistakes. He who has not. let
him cast the first stone. but let not
the iackal and hyena participate IN
the stOuing No honest official OBJ
iects 20 Just and fair criticism, and
Governor Stephens invites it. The
TINES has not hesitated on several
occasions TO criticise whatit believed
were mistakes in minor matters. We
have watched his course as chief eX-
ecutiva with much interest, and can
truthfullv say that we do not believe
there has ever been cleaner admin
istratiOn Or one that looked closer
to the business interests of the state.
Governor stephens administration
has proven him to be Just what his
friend, claimed for him, n clear-head-
Ell. brDad-nIinded. safe. conservative
business man. He displayed other
traits which may possibly account
in a large measure for the assaults
made upon him. He has Il combat
i've disposition, quick to resent an
insult, u hard hitter and asks no
quarter. OF his enemies and grants
them no favOrs. On the other hand
he was never known to turn his back
upon q friend. Therein lies his
strength. In every county, in every
hamlet III this big state he has
friends, ready and anxious to show
their LOYALTY to him when occasion
requires "He loves and is true to his
friends is enough to entitle Lon Y.
Stephens name place on the scroll
OF tame, were that alone the sum OF
his virtues He can afford to bear the
slurs and sings Of disgruntled and
embittered churls who have been un-
able to control his actions and die
tate his policies. He will retire from
the office Of governor with more true,
loyal friends than any man who ever
graced the executive chair.

We have no quarrel with the editor
OF the Osceola Democrat, who is "a
very clever gentleman, so we hear.
We have not the honor OF his ac-
quaintance, nor do we know his
name, which for some reason is not
carried at the head of his editorial
columns. We believe it is Lucas, a
close relative OF the famous railroad
and corporation lawyer, John Lu-
cas-, whose home is in Kansas CITY
aud st. Clair county. We would ad-
wise him. if he pretends tornn a dem
ocratic paper, to keep within party
party bounds. He has a perfect
right to criticise democratic officials
when they fail in their duty, but his
repeated and continued thrusts at the
governor are not criticisms of official
acts, but coarse, vulgar abuse which
are unwarranted in fact, and leads
to the conclusion that he is airing a
personal grievance.
