INTERESTING, IF TRUE.

Prove &C.

One grain of the active principle in
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets viii digest
5000 grains OF meat. eggs or other whole
some food. and this claim has been
proven by actual experiment which any
one can perform for himself in the fol-
lowing manner: Cut hard boiled egg
into very small pieces. as II would be II
masticated, place the egg and two or
three of the tablets in bottle or Jar
containing warm water heated to sS
degrees (the temperature OF the body)
and keep 1t at this temperature for three
and one half hours, at the end OF which
time the egg will be as completely d.
gested as ii would have been in the
healthy stomach of hungry boy.
The point Of this experiment IS that
what Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets VIII do
to the egg in the bottle It will do to the
egg or meat in the stomach and nothing
else will rest and invigOrate the stomach
so safely and cffectually-. Even a little
child can take Stuart'5s Tablets with
safety and benefit if its digestion is
weak and the thousands Of cures accom-
plished by their regular daily use are
easily explained when it is understood
that they are composed Of vegetable
essences. aseptic pepsin. diastase and
Golden Seal. which mingles with the

Dieting never cures dyspepsia. neither

ease Of any kind because good digestion
means good health in every organ.
The merit and success Of Stuarts Dys-
pepsia Tablets are world wide and they
are sold at the moderate price Of 50 cents

ANOTHER HORSE BURNED.
Barn Burners Again Score in North
Topeka

The fire department was called last
night for the third fncendiar'y barn fire
within week where horses have perish
ed in the flames
The alarm was turned in at S.37 O'Clock
from box 10. The barn at 1918 North
Monroe street occupied by c. s. Kistler
had been fired The flames had gained
considerable headway before discovered
and horse was burned There was $500
insurance ON the barn. It has been sup
posed that all or most Of the incendiary
barn fires have been the work Of boys
and the only clue to lead to the belief
that they have been the work of men
has been found in connection with the
burning of Mrs Stiles barn on East
Eighth street Soon after the alarm was
turned in Oscar SWayze who lives
short distance from where the fire was
heard a man climb up to the roof OF the
one story part of his house and start
across the roof for a window on the
second floor. He made so much noise
walking on the tin roof that he became
frightened and fed The porch climber
may have started the fire to attract the
people in the neighborhood and rob their
houses during the excitement No rob-
berries have been reported to the police.
