1t was on our way to Vienna that the
guard cried "Salzburg," and without
previous thought we instantly decided,
''We must stop and visit Mozart's birth
place." The statue in the square, the
famous concert hall upon the Hill, where
world known artists gave the last Mozart
Memorial, ali claimed our attention; but
far exceeding these In interest was the
plain building inscribed "Mozart's &C.
burtshouse.' Up the very same stone
steps his little feet had often trudged,
and we We're standing in the room where
the great child prodigy of tone was born.
Pictures OF the Mozart family were on
the walls, cases were filed with souvenirs
from kings and queens. We touched the
ivory keys his fingers had so often
pressed, and looked upon the manuscript
of his famous magic Flute,'' sadly
thinking that one hundredth part of all
the honor and homage paid to Mozart
dead, would have heightened and made
glad the days of Mozart living.
We found Vienna dream of beauty
and JOY the entire time we stayed
in fact ali and more than our fancy
painted. In just one very important
point Things are not what they seem,

feature.

the historian wake things up and
keep the faculty and student portion

A GOOD COMPLEXION
Depends on Good Digestion.

This is almost an axiom, although
usually we are apt to think that cosmet-
les. face powders, lotions, fancy soaps,
ETC., are the secrets for securing clear
complexion. But all these are simply su-
perficial assistants.
1t is impossible to have a good complex
ion unless the digestive organs perform
their work properly, unless the stomach
by properly digesting the food taken into
it furnishes an abundance of pure blood,
a good complexion is impossible.
This is the reason so many ladies are
using Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets, because
they promptly cure any stomach trouble
and they have found out that perfect di-
gestion means a perfect complexion and
one that does not require cosmetics and
powders to enhance it's beauty.
Many ladies diet themselves or deny
themselves many articles of food solely
in order to keep their complexion clear.
When Stuart's Dyspepsia tablets are used
no such dieting is necessary, take these
tablets and eat all the good wholesome
food you want and you need have no fear
of indigestion nor the sallow, dull COM
plexion which nine women out of ten have
solely because they are suffering from
some form of indigestion.
Bear in mind that beauty proceeds from
good health. good health results from per-
feet digestion and we have advanced the
best argument to induce every man and
woman to give this splendid remedy a
trial.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets can be found
in drug stores and costs but so cents pei
package.
If there is any arrangement of the
stomach or bowels they will remove il
and the resultant effects are, good di-
geEtion, good health and clear, bright
complexion.
