Last Night in Dav-
export.

All that the Terrible Turk, No. 2,
could do last night at Turner Grand
Opera house, Davenport, did not avail
to put Farmer" Burns shoulders on
the mat. and when time was called after
the two strong men had wrestled for
over forty minutes the Scott county
athlete had never been in the slightest
danger of being thrown. He had been
just as aggressive as the mountain OF
bone and muscle with which he had to
contend. and he never tried to keep out
of reach of the man from the shores OF
the Bosphorus. Several times, it Is
true, the Turk had the farmer grip
ped about the neck, but that neck stood
the test as it had so many times IN
the past and endured all the pressure
applied to it by the wonderful muscles OF
the Oriental 1t was to some purpose
that the Scott county agTiculturist, de-
sirous of distinction on the mat, and
aware of the need of having a strong
connection between shoulders and head,
slept for many a night with bag OF
shot laid across his neck to develop the
already powerful muscles OF that por-
ton of his physique.
The Turk won falls form John Noss,

At this mornings session in the Mime

to have fallen.
The testimony of Yer Bieste before

had been inflicted whether it had been
made with a single-edged or a double
edged instrument

a COMMON TROUBLE.
Thousands Suffer From 1t without Know
ing Its Real Character.

ing Its Real Character.
No trouble is more common or
more misunderstood than nervous
| dyspepsia. People having il think
that their nerves are to blame. are
surprised that they are not cured by
nerve medicines and spring remedies;
the real seat Of the mischief is lost
sight of; the stomach is the organ
to be looked after.
Nervous dyspeptics often do not
have any pain whatever in the stom-
ach, nor perhaps any of the usual
symptoms of stomach weakness.
Nervous dyspepsia shows itself not
in the stomach so much as in nearly
every other organ; in some eases the
heart palpitates and is irregular; in
others, the kidneys are affected; in
others. the bowels are troubled. with
loss of flesh and appetite, with the
accumulation of gas, sour risings
and heartburn.
Mr.. \. w. Sharper of No. 81 Pros

and other remedies without any fav-
orable result. They sometimes give
temporary relief until the effects of
the medicine wore off. ] attributed
this to my sedentary habits, being a
bookkeeper with little physical eX-
ercise, but l am glad to state that
the tablets have overcome all these
obstacles, for 1 have gained in flesh,

notoriety, but is based on actual
facts Respectfully yours,
