THEORIES ABOUT FOOD.
Also u Few Facts ON the Same
Subject.

Also i Few Facts ON the Same
Subject.
We hear much nowadays about
health foods and hygienic living,
about vegetarianism and many 9TH
er fads along the same line.
Restaurants may be found in the
larger cities where no meat, pastry
or coffee Is served and the food
crank is in his glory, and argu-
ments and theories galore advanced
to prove that meat was never in
tended for human stomacfls, and al
most make us believe that our
sturdy ancestors who lived four
score years in robust health on
roast beef, pork and mutton must
nave been grossly ignorant OF the
laws Of health.
Our forefathers had other things
to do than formulate theories about
the food they ate. A warm well
come was extended to any kind
from bacon to acorns.
A healthy appetite and common
sense are excellent guides to follow
in matters of diet, and a mixed
diet of grains, fruit and meats is
undoubtedly the best.
AS compared with grains and
vegetables, meat furnishes the most
nutriment In highly, concentrated
form and is digested and Is assim-
Hated more quickly than vege-
tables and grains.
DR.. julius Remmson on this sub
ject, says: Nervous persons, rpeo-
pie run down in health and OF low
vitality should eat meat and plenty
OF it. If the digestion Is too feeble
at first it may be easily corrected
by the regular use OF Stuarts Dys-
pepsia Tablets after each meal. Two
OF these excellent tablets taken
after dinner will digest several
thousand grains of meat, eggs or
other animal food in three hours,
and no matter how weak the
stomach may be, no trouble Will
be experienced if regular practice
is made of using Stuart's Dyspepsia
Tablets because they supply the
pepsin and diastase necessary to
perfect digestion, and every form OF
indigestion will be overcome by
their use.
That large class of people who
come under the head OF nervous
dyspeptics should eat plenty OF
meat and insure it's proper diges-
ton by the daily use of a safe,
harmless digestive medicine like
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets COM
posed of the natural digestive pr1n-
ciples, pepsin, diastase, fruit ACIDS
and salts, which actually perform
the work of digestion. Cheap cath
artic medicines, masquerading I'M
der the name of dyspepsia cures
are useless for Indigestion, as they
have absolutely no effect upon the
actual digestion of food.
Dyspepsia in all it's many forms
is simply a failure OF the stomach TO
digest food, and the sensible way to
solve the riddle and cure the dys-
pepsia is to make daily use at meal
time of preparation like Stuart's
Dyspepsia Tablets which is endorsed
by the medical profession and
known to contain active digestive
principles.
All druggists sell Stuart's Dye
pepsia Tablets at Soc for full treat
ment.

Joe Jenerson,s Criticism.

Tbeimpression is current in theatri-
cal circles that Mr.. Jefferson never
guys. He is a stickler for profess
sionai etiquette, it is true, and tries
to mould his company into one har-
monious picture. into a perfect ma
chine. But there was one night upon
which he yielded to the temptation to
guy. It was during a performance of
s'The Rivals" in which his matchless
portrayal of Bob Acres proceeded
smoothly until the scene is reached in
which Falkland, Captain Absolute
and Bob Acres have a wordy alter
cation. At this point the actor play
ing Falkland ranted violently, raised
his voice to an unnecessary pitch, and
finally, in a burst of anger. slammed
q door as he made his exit. It is part
of the 'sbusiness" for Captain Abso-
lutte to say at this j~uncture, "Poor
Falklandl" He did SO. and Mr.. JEFF
ferson promptly replied, "The poorest
/ ever sawl"-Success.
