WHEN DOCTORS DISAGREE
what become Of the Patient.

Doctors have their hobbies as well as
other people and in the treatment of
disease often carry them too far for the
patients good. For instance, in the
treatment Of indigestion or dyspepsia
many doctors give bismuth and nothing
else others rely on pepsin to bring their
patients thru, still another doctor
treats stomach troubles with the vari-
Gus vegetable essences and fruit salts.
Now one or the other of these excel
lent remedies becomes hobby with the
doctor who has had most success with
the particular one in question. because
all of them are first-class remedies for
indigestion and dyspepsia, but not one
Of them alone is so good as combina-
ton of all of them. such as is found in
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets. which con-
tain not only vegetable essences and
fruit salts. but also the freshest, purest
pepsin and bismutt. making altogether
remedy unsurpassed for every form
of Indigestion. sour stomach, nervous
dyspepsia. belching of gas, distress
after eating. sleenlessness. headaches.
etc
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are not a
secret patent nostrum, but you can see
for yourself what they are, and know
ing this their success as dyspepsia
cure Is not surprising. All druggists
recommend and sell them OF 50 cents.

Alta, June 1s.-The interview with
Hon. ]. H. Funk of Iowa Falls, pub
lisheG In the Times Republican, a few
days since, on the origin and enactment
OF the so-called mulcts or Martin law,
was read with much interest here. Be
ing the subject of considerable discus
sion among local politicians. your COR
respondent interviewed Hon. II. 4.
Saberson. who was a member OF the
twenty general assembly, which
passed the mulct law. and who had to
do with the statute in question. From
the conversation had with Mr.. Saberson
on the subject it would appear that,
while your Iowa Falls correspondent
told the truth, and nothing but the
truth. he was not permitted to tell the
whole truth. The appended interview
Will supply an interesting chapter to the
history of the mulct law as given by
your Iowa Falls correspondent and at
the same time show why with good rea-
son it was called the Martin law:

revised and amended. and a majority of
the committee had voted for a favorable
report to the house, said, Mr.. Saberson,
l"Chairman Funk stated that the bill
was 90 altered, changed, revised, etc,
he could not recognize it as his offspring
and asked, Who will father the billy
stating that he could not do so. The
silence that enSued in that committee

1t was then agreed that Mr.. Martin
should take charge Of the bill on its
passage. A committee of five, with Mr..
Martin at its head, was appointed to
steer the bill thru the breakers in the
effort to secure its safe passage. Two
members of this committee refused to
have anything to do with it and the 9TH

Both sides had been dong crooked busi.

at the last moment representatives of the

were some merchants who refused 10 IS
sue tickets in excess of their cash sales,
but Tiers became partisan and finally
here was perfect snow storm Of tickets
There bad been no agreement as % the
denomination of tickets though S tickets
had been the largest used until Satur

They had WON'T matters not how. Both
had done an enormous trade in tickets
and there could be nothing but laugh
all around. lnasmuch as there were
signs of an energetic protest by the

500 for the benefit of that lodge, took
the piano and the incident is closed.
