THE HEALTH HABIT

Inst As Easy to Form As Any Other
We do not deliberately form our
pet habits, but they are uncon-
sciously acquired and grow as we
grow, and by the time we learn
they are hurting us, we find them
too strong to be easily broken.
Then, why not form a good hab-
it, a habit which will counterfeit
the many bad ones, in other words
contract the questionable habit OF
being always well.
The best health habit to get into
is to have and keep a vigorous
stomach; if you have a healthy di-
gestion you can drink your below
ed coffee, smoke four favorite
brand of tobacco, with little or no
harm; the mischief begins when
these things are forced upon the
faithful stomach, without any as
sistance.
Form the habit of taking after
meals some harmless but efficient
digestive which will relieve the
stomach of so much extra work.
Nature furnishes us with such
digestives and when they are COM
bined in such a pleasant prepare
ton as Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets,
they give the overworked stomach
Just the necessary assistance to Sc
cure perfect digestion without any
of the harmful effects of cathartics
and similar drugs.
The habit of taking Stuarts's
Dyspepsia Tablets after meals is as
necessary to the weak stomach as
food itself, and indeed to get the
benefit from food eaten, nothing
better and certainly nothing safer
can be used.
Many families consider Stuart's
Tablets as essential IN the house as
knives and forks.
They consist entirely of natural
digestive principles without the eff
feet Dr. characteristics of drugs;
they have no cathartic action, but
simply go to work on the food eat
en- and digest it.
Take into account your bad hab-
it's and the expense they entail and
then invest fifty cents N a box of
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets and see
if your digestion for the next
month is not vastly improved.
Ask the clerk in any drug store
the name of the most successful
and popular stomach remedy and
he will say "Stuart's."

tons. The attempt to relieve Lady
smith was well devised, and l agree
with Butler in thinking it ought 20

ONE measure have been due to the
difficulties of the ground and the COM
handing positions held by the enemy,
and probably also to errors of judg-
ment and want of administrative ca
pacity on the part of Warren. But
whatever faults Warren may have
committed, the failure must also be
attributed to the disinclination of the
officer in supreme command to assert
his authority and see that what he
thought best was done and also to the
unwarrantable and needless assump-
ton OF responsibility by a subordinate
officer"
The dispatch concludes:
THE gratifying feature Of these dis
patches is the admirable behavior of

The fact that the government has
been in possession of these dispatches
from Lord Roberts for more than five

success of Lieut. Smith-Eman. the
Rhodesion scout, who, with the excep-
ton of a Reuter- correspondent, a cy-
clist, is the only white man who has
entered Mafeking since the siege be-
gan, is likely to prove of great value
to Col. Plumer, to whom he has re-
turned with dispatches, should Flumer
decide to raise the siege of Matching
in earnest.
A Scottish crofter has introduced a
method of making Norishgen porridge
with oat bran, which is a great boon

Left OF Coffee and Made a Remark
nhle Gain in Health.

N. H. Baldwin. of Laconia, N. H. is
seventy years old and has gained TWEEN
ty pounds since 1898. A letter says: L
drank imported coffee because | needed
something warm with my meals. While
/ was using coffee | was thin in flesh
and nervous, with stomach trouble as
well as bowel and kidney trouble. |
left off coffee in 1898, taking Postum
Food Coffee in its place.
Il was fortunate in the first trial of
Postum, when it was well made by
the wife of a groceryman, who had
used it long enough to know just how
to make it right. 1t tasted so good to
me that l have had it at home ever
since, and have gained twenty pounds
l am much stronger than l was a year
ago.
1T speaks pretty we'll for the food
value of the Postum Food Coffee. for a
person seventy years old to gain weight
at that age. Not only that, but the OF
trouble with the stomach, kidneys and
bowels has disappeared"
Health does not always set in imme-
diately after a person makes a change
in diet, nor does sickness always set In
Immediately after bad habits are taken
up, but the daily life maintained by
good food and good drink, free from
poisonous elements like coffee. will
gradually build in new and perfect cells
in the human body, so that month by
month a sturdy and steady condition of
health is set up that will carry a per-
son through many irregularities of
sleep and diet, and through a vast
amount of hard work whereas a person
who is just barely well, subject to con-
tinual trouble from some sort of all
ment caused by coffee and its effects on
the nerves, would be completely pros
trated and be unable to carry out the
work of life. Moderation and a wise
selection of food and drink brings
health, which is true happiness.
