CARRIED TOO FAR.
The Fear of Being Deceived or Hum.
plugged Prevents Many People
From Trying "a Good

HhShhSIHe.
stomach troubles are SO common and in
most cases SO obstinate to cure, that
people are apt to look with suspicion on
any remedy claiming to be radical perm
anent cure for dyspepsia and indigestion.
Many sueh people pride themselves On
thelr acuteness in never being humbIg-
ged. especially in medicines.
ms fear of being humbugged can be
carried too far, SO far in fact, that many
people suffer for years with weak diges-
ton rather than risk little time and
money in faithfully testing the claims
made for remedy so reliable and uni
versally used as Stuart's Dyspepsia Tab
lets. f1JF
Now Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are
vastly different in one important respect
from ordinary patent medicines for the
reason that they are not a secret patent
medicine; no secret is made of the ingred-
tents, but analysis shows them to contain
the natural digestive ferments, pure asep-
tic pepsin government test) Golden Seal
and diastase. They are not ea.hartic
neither do they act powerfully on any
particular organ. but they cure indiges-
ton on the common sense plan of digest
ing the food eaten, thoroughly before 1t
has time to ferment, sour and cause the
mischief This is the only secret of their
success.
Cathartic pills never have and never can
cure Indigestion and stomach troubles, be-
cause they act only on the bowels, where
as the whole trouble is in the stomach.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets taken after
meals, digest the food. That is all there
is to it. Food, not digested or half-di-
sested is poison, as it creates gas, acidity,
headaches, palpitation of the heart, loss
of flesh and appetite and many other trou-
bles. which are often called by some other
name.
They are sold by druggists everywhere
in the United States, Great Britain and
Canada.

that labor is exceedingly scarce under

ment of spring planting. The complaint
OF the scarcity of labor seems to be gen.
eral throughout Mississippi The negro

ROOM IN THE WEST.

II is not generally known that there
are in the United States unutilized
areas of land to the extent of 600, ,000.-
900 acres. There are times when one
is apt to think that the country Is get
ting a trifie crowded. and one well
comes the opening of little tracts OF
few hundred thousand acres as afford
ing opportune relief to a condition of
almost dangerous congestion. But all
Europe does not possess the area
which is included in the arid region
west of the Mississippi. There's the
rub-it is an arid region. But in these
days of vast increase in the employ
ment of irrigation. the solution Of the
problem OF congestion appears.
This tremendous expanse OF terri
tory is capable Of supporting a popu-
lation of 50,OO0.OOO people At the in
crease rate of only 100000 or 6O0O.-
900 in decade. it will be long time
before the population OF the country
has reached 125. 100000. But the
preparations must be made to accom-
modate a population roughly estimat-
ed by these figures.

CuRyE RULE INVENTED.

In the picture is shown an adjusta-
BILE curved ruler invented by Prince
Anareas Gagarin OF st. Petersburg,
Russia. which will be found very con-
venient in drawing schools, architects
offices and for designers use gener-
ally. with the aid Of this ruler IL Is
not only possible to draw curve OF
any radius, but also to measure curves
accurately. a gauge being provided to
indicate the circumference or diameter
of the circle formed by continuation
of the arc.
The frame of the ruler consists OF a
series OF pivoted levers connected with
each other in such a manner that
when the adjusting screw is turned the
arc Of the circle is varied accordingly
The face OF the ruler which maintains
