THE ARMY OF HEALTH.
The Army in the Philippines Insignifi
cant Compared with this One.

If all the people in the United States.
Canada and Great Britain who make
daily use of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tab
let's could be assembled together it
would make an army that would out
number our army OF one hundred
thousand by at least five to one.
Men and women. who are broken
down in health. are only q part of the
thousands who use this popular prep
aration. the greater number are peo-
pie who are in fair health but who
know that the way to keep we'll is to
keep the digestion perfect and use
Stuarts Tablets as regularly as meal
time comes to insure good digestion
and proper assimilation of food.
Prevention is always better than
cure and disease can find no foothold
if the digestion is kept in good work
ing order by the daily use of Stuart $
Dyspepsia Tablets.
Mr.. Thomas Scale, Mayfield. Cal,
says II have used and recommended
Stuart's Tablets because there is
nothing like them to keep the stomach
right.
Miss Leila Dively. 1927 Plummer St.
Pittsburg, Pa, writes: II wish every
one to know how grateful l am for
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets. i suffered

''They are easily the best all around

The army Of people who take Stu

taking them regularly after meals.
They contain no. Opiates. cocaine or
any eathartic. or injurious drugs, sim

which every weak stomach lacks.
Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets are sold

A large number We're present at the
regular meeting of the First Baptist
church, yesterday morning, when IL
was known that the pastor, Kew. "A.
T. Ringgold. would give his decision
in regard TO remaining with the par
ish. At a meeting several weeks ago,
he read his resignation to the PARISH
but they voted unanimously to ask
him TO remain. This was great sur
prises 10 the pastor and he asked for
time TO reconsider. This was granted
and at the meeting, yesterday morning,
he informed the congregation that as
it was the wish of all the parish that
he remain with them, and he consul
cred it to be sincere, he had reconsld-
cred his former decision. This was good
news. Not only is ii a pleasure TO the
church but to all. as, since his COM
ing to Gardiner he has made himsell
dear TO all, and his departure was
looked forward to with the greatest
regret

The hog OF today constitutes no less
than go different articles Of com
merce. and next to cotton and wheat
furnishes the largest values in ex-
ports from the United States says a
writer. Its name has become an
epithet. Its L application !! to man
means greed and brutishness. It is
commonly supposed to be a scaven-
ger, like the puddle duck. It takes
mud baths.> So do men. There is
much virtue in mud. The hog bathes
in pools of it to coat his skin against
the attacks of insects: man dips his
festered hide in to improve his cir
culation and draw out his govt and
rheumatism. I have seen men, known
men today, with skins thicker than the
hide Of the rhinoceros. The hog is
omnivorous-so is man. The hog is
carnivorous by choice-so is man. The
hog is herbivorous, granivorous,
gramnivorous and phytivorous by edu-
cation-so is man. ..,
These reflections are induced by the
indignities offered a useful animal.
The hog was the cleanest of beasts un-
til man built sly and imprisoned him
in filth, fattened him on filth, killed
him in filth, and ate him in filth. No
animal. wild or domestic, is so clean
about his bed as the hog. It wants
pure, sweet, fresh straw every time.
The hog has brains. It has been
known to excel the pointer in scent
ing quail. An authentic instance is
mentioned by Bingley in Memoirs of
British Quadrupeds of keen-scented

SOW that would stand at birds which
the dogs had missed. Who ever heard
of an educated OK or sheep? Yet we
have had on our stage educated hogs
that could spell and play cards, count
and tell the time.
The hog caused the. biggest mutiny
ever known in the history OF the
world, and was responsible for men be-
ing blown from the muzzles OF cam
non. When Great Britain shipped
cartridges to India for the native
troops she reckoned without her host,
for the ammunition was creased with
lard, which so offended the religious
scruples of the sepoys that they arose
as one man in rebellion. The Amerl-
can hog nearly caused war between
Germany and the United States, and
only the diplomacy Of Whitelaw Reid
obtained for the animal admission into
France.
Moses and Mohammed were opposed
to the hog because, while it divides the
hoof and is cloven-footed, yet it chews
not the cud. The camel is not eaten
for opposite reasons-it chews the cud
but is not cloven-footed. The hare is
also unclean, because while it .chews
the cud it divides not the hoof. ALI
civilized nations have passed and re-
passed laws governing what a man
shall eat and how much it shall cost
him, but the only sumptuary measure
that ever stood the test of time is the
law of Moses concerning the hog. 1t
has been. On the statute book for g.
800 years.
