ALL RIGHT IN BISCUITS
But a Poor Medicine.

Common soda is all right in its place
and indispensable in the kitchen and
for cooking and washing purposes, but
soda was never intended for medicine
and people who use it as such will
some day regret it.
The common use of SODA TO relieve
heartburn and sour stomach is habit
which thousands of people practice,
with danger. soda gives only temper
AIRY relief and in the end the stomach
trouble gets worse and worse.
The soda acts as "A mechanical lrri-
tant to the walls of the stomach and
bowels and cases are on record where
it accumulates in the intestlnes, caus-
ing death by inflammation or perlton-
tits.
Dr.. Harlanson recommends as the
safest and surest cure for sour stom-
ach (acid dyspepslal the daily use at-
ter meals of an excellent preparation
sold by druggists under the name of
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets. These
Tablets are large 20 grain lozenges,
pleasant TO the taste and containing
the natural peptones and digestive,
elements necessary to good digestion
and which all weak stomachs lack.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets used reg
ularly after meals digest the food
promptly and thoroughly before 1t has
time to ferment, sour and poison the
blood and nervous system.
DR.. Wuerth states that he invaria
bly, uses and recommends Stuart's
Dyspepsia Tablets in all forms of
stomach arrangement and finds then
a certain cure, not only for sour stom
ach, but by causing prompt digestion
of the food they create healthy appe
tite, increase flesh, and strengthen the
action of the heart and liver
| They are not cathartic and contain
no violent drug hut are intended only
| for stomach diseases and faulty di
gestion, and generally acknowledged
to be the most reliable cure for any
stomach trouble except cancer of the
stomach.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets now en-
JOY an international reputation anC
popularity and are sold by druggsti
everywhere in the United State, Cana
da and Great Britain.

The Presidential Campaign Of 1900.


The wars of America have, here
tofore, settled affairs of state.
Great questions of policy, of ma
tional moves and national conclu-
sions have been answered as soon
as the battle smoke cleared away,
and the victor realized by his vic
tory. The war with Spain is un-
like its predecessors. 1t has not
answered questions, but has crea-
ted problems which may not be
solved lightly. The result of the
campaign of 1900 will make a
broad mark upon the page of his
tory; it will doubtless establish the
policy of the great Republic of
America for quarter of a century.
1t is vastly important, therefore,
that every citizen shall study the
situation through tnat best OF me-
dlums, a great newspaper. The
most reliable newspaper, the best
newspaper, is The Semi Weekly
Republic, which affords a compre-
hensive view Of the political situa-
tion in all its bearings. 1t pub
fishes the new news. The Semi
Weekly Republic is a democratic
paper, but it offers to it's readers
the news regarding all the politi-
cal parties, and this without pre-
judice.
The subscription price Of the
Semi Weekly Republic is S1.OO
per year. The Republic Sunday
Magazine s1.25 per year. Both
papers are now being offered at the
very low price Of $3.50 for one
year. To secure this low rate
both must be ordered and paid for
at the same time.
