A POPULAR MISTAKE.
Regarding Remedies for Dyspepsia
and IndfgcstiOn.


The national disease Of Americans is in
digestion or in its chronic form, dyspep-
STA, and for the very reason that it is so
common many people neglec; taking prop
er treatment for what they consider tri-
fiirg stomach trouble, VIII n as a matter of
fact, indigestion lays the foundation for
many ncurable diseases. No person with
a vigorous, healthy stomach will fall a
victim to consumption. Many kidney dis
eases and heart troubles date their begin
ming from poor digestion; thin, nervous
people are really 81 because their stom-
achs are out of gear; weary. langu.d
faded out women owe their condition 10
imperfect digestion.
When nearly every person you meet is
afflicted with weak digestion IT is not
surprising that nearly every sec ct patent
medicine on the marke. claims to be
cure for dyspepsia, as well as a score OF
other troubles, when in fact, as DR..
Werthier says, there is but one genuine
dyspepsia cure which is perfectly safe
and reliable, and moreover. tn S remedy is
not a patent M dcine, but 1t IS a sclen-
tific combination of pure pepsin free
from animal natter. vegetable essences.
fruit salts and bismuth. 1t is sold by
druggists under the name Of Stuart's
Dyspepsia Tablets. No eXtravagant
claims are made for them but for indi-
gest!on or any stomach trouble, Stuart's
Dyspepsia Tablets are far ahead of any
remedy yet discovered They act on the
food eaten, no dieting is necessary, simp-
~ at all the wholesome food you want
and these tablets VIII digest 1t. A cure
results. because all the stomach needs is
rest, which Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets
give by doing the work of digestion.

tain 10 per cent Of alcohol Peppermint

Jamaica ginger, bakers yeast. alcohol as

feminine tipples were mentioned BY this
Cassandra, who apparently sees very little
hope for the women of this country
Continuing the discussion. the New York
Sun says that it IS a fact that New York
society has during the post ten years had
only two scandals in which it was shown
that women were drunkards One of these
was a faithless wife, and il was urged in
her defense that her use OF stmulants had
caused her downfall The other case has
never attracted such general attention, but
IL is known with comparative accuracy
why a beautiful and attractive woman in
society hos never married. She is not now
much more than SO. and her misfortune
became known first some years ago. In
a set which is the most conspicuous in
New York. which is the center of atten-
ton from all sides, only these two women
have been discussed. So il is fair to pre-
sumo that the forebodings of the temper
anCe lecturer were unnecessarily dark. II
is usually in fashionable society that most
of the drunkenness is TO be found. accord
ing to the yarns which regularly appear
a bout cologne and other essences that wo-
men are supposed to drink AS matter
of fact drunkenness among women is now
as much confined as ever to a certain
class. Among women of refinement and
responsibility there is no greater taste for
alcohol, no greater indulgence in il than
there always has been. The women of that
particular class which hos always been ad-
dioted TO drink probably drink no more
than they ever did, and any consideration
of their case has no place in discussing
the alleged increase in drinking among
women in general.

mnke a mint julep for each of the com

guests that the mint was of an excep-
tionally fine quality, as it came from their
own private garden. The suggestion was
received with delight and the juieps were
promptly mixed.
In his wifes glass, however, he put
in only enough whisky to flavor the wa
ter-prohablY not more than a teaspoon
full. OF this she slipped about half. The
result, however. was the same. She was
troubled with insomnia all night long
and IL was not until o'clock in the
morning that she dropped off to sleep
and as consequence was not called for
breakfast.
