Cau9o0 BY Weak, Exhausted StomochS. 1
Almost Universal.
You, reader. would not permit your
neighbor to call you out of bed at mid
night and oblige you to walk the pave
ment for two or three hours every
night. You would not allow him to
burn your hand wilfully, nor to cut
your finger off, just to please him.
Why, then, do you allow your stomach
to cause you loss of sleep, nightmare,
and continual suffering? Every dys-
peptic, every sufferer from Indigestion,
biliousness, heartburn, waterbrash,
catarrh Of the stomach and other stom-
ach diseases, is a slave to his or her
stomach. There is one way-only one
of breaking the chains of this slav-
cry. That is by using Dodd's Dyspep-
sia Tablets.
These digest the food you have eaten.
They don't need aid from the stomach,
which is therefore given time to rest
and gain strength. They regulate the
bowels, which carry off the waste por-
ton of tie food not used in making
blood. Thus the stomach is emptied
and prepared to receive the next meal.
No foul gas can form in the stomach
if you use Dodd's Dyspepsia Tablets.
for the food is digested by them at
once and does not remain in the stom'
ach to rot and cause disease.

Dewey expresses himself as very much
pratified over the manner in which his
announcement to he q candidate for the

friends.
Many kilograms have come during
the day. particularly from the South,
and some from the far West, endorsing
his course and saying he would have
the support of the signers in the cam
paiqn he will make. The admiral was
in excellent humor and talked interest
ingly of number Of things in connec.
ton with his proposed candidacy,
though concerning questions asked him
he said he would soon make a public
statement.
"Why is it, Admiral Dewey, that You
have decided to become a candidate for

already been printed on the subject. II
the American people want me to be
their candidate for this high office ]
shall gladly serve them.'
Silent Regarding His Plaua.
"Now tell me something about your
nlans for the future" suggested the ne.
porter.
..On that point am not vet prepared

admiral. II am consulting with my

taken. When the proper time comes
will make statement as to my plans
for the future, which will be very soon

with his views, however, it is learned
that he does not expect the nomination

them on the plea that this is not the
