How DO You Like This New Fad


Vegetarans. anti-coffee drinkers and
food cranks of every description. must
now take back seat for new fad has
the foor.
A society has recently been formed. the
members OF which pledge themselves to
eat no food whatever that has been
cooked. They claim that uncooked food
is the only rational healthtul diet; that
our remote ancestors ate no cooked food,
and therefore If we do the same. vigor
and health will be our reward.
Raw meat, raw potatoes, raw wheat.
raw eggs, raw everything. is the enticing
bill Of fare held out to the enthusiastic
food crank OF the future, and the society
proposes TO establish restaurants in the
larger cities where this delightful menu
may be served daily.
Modern cooking Is often a dyspepsia
producer, because we fry SO many foods
which should be baked, roasted, broiled
or boiled; fried food is indigestible be-
cause each particle OF food is incased in
hot grease, which the digestive juices OF
the stomach can not easily penetrate,
but properly cooked food is more easily
dgested than the same food uncooked,
and we predict for the new fad very
limited following.
The real cause OF indigestion is the lack
of hydrcchloric acid and peptones In the
cooked the food, II can not be well d.
gested unless the gastric juice is abund-
ant and contains the necessary amount
of peptones to dissolve the food
Therefore, the most sensible cure for
poor digestion is to take after each meal
acme safe and reliable digestive like
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets. which supply
neptones to digest the meat and eggs and
diastase to digest the bread, potatoes and
similar starchy foods.
Laxative medicines never cure indiges-
ton. because they have no digestive ef-
feet whatever upon the food; on the other
hand. II the food is properly digested
there will be no need OF lavatives; good
digestion does away with constipation.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets contain pure
aseptlc pepsin Government test) diastase
and the digestive elements which weak
stomachs lack, and they curn indigestion
nv assisting the oyerworked, rundown
stomach In it's hard work. until II is re-
stored 10 It's normal condition, when the
tablets are no longer needed, but there
are thousands OF robust men and womep
who never eat a meal without taking one
ar Two OF stuart's Tablets, because by
So Soing they can eat what they please
and when they please and be free from
lauy bad after effects.
stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are sold o,
druggists everywhere In the United
statss, Canada and Great Britain.

Company. recently extended from this
place to Shepherdstown, has been con-
nected with the line of the Maryland Tele-
phone Company and all the towns along
the line OF the Winchester Company are
now in communication with Hagerstown
Wiliamsport, Cumberland, Frederick
Baltimore and other towns in Maryland
touched by the line.
Talk to Shepherdstown will be without
extra charge, just the same as to all 9TH
CT points along the local line, but when
communication is wanted over the Mary
land line an extra fee of twenty cents in
day time and fifteen at night will be
charged
The present plans of the local company
for the extension of its line are not yet
completed The work OF extending the
new line from Walper's Cross Roads to
Charles Town will soon be commenced,
once begun, work will be pushed forward
as rapidly as on the line just completed.
There are already three Winchester
Company phones in Shepherdstown, one
in Hotel Entler and in the business places
of Messrs. Mundy and Lemen.
