undoubtedly the best, in spite OF
the claims made by vegetarians
and food cranks generally.
AS compared with grains and
vegetables, meat furn shes the most
nutriment in a highly con entrat-
ed form and is dige3 ed and assim-
Hated more quickly than vegetables
or grains.
Or. julius Remusson on this sub
ject says: Nervous persons. peo-
pie run down in health and of low
vitality should eat plenty OF meat.
If the digestion is too feeble at
first it may be easily strengthened
by the regular use Of Stuart's Dys-
pepsia Tablets after each meal.
Two OF these excellent tablets
taken after dinner will digest sew
eral thousand grains OF me7t, eggs
or other animal food in three or
four hours. while the malt dtastase
also contained in Stalrts TABLETS
cause the perfect digestion OF
starehy foods, lie potatoes, bread,
etc. and no matter how weak the
stomach may be no trouble will be
experienced II a regular practice is
made of using Stnlrts Dyspe STA
Tablets, because they supply the
pepsin and diastasa SO necessary to
perfect digestion, and any form of
INDIGESTION and stomach trouble
except cancer Of the stomach will
be overcome by their daily use
That large class OF people who
come under the head of nervous
dyspeptles should eat plenty OF
meat ard insure its complete d ges-
ton by the systematic use Of a
safe. harmless digestive me3i inc
like Stu9rt's Dys e sia T blets
composed of the natural digestive
principles, peptones and dia stase,
which actually perform the work
Of digestion and give the abused
stomach chance to rest and 70
furnish the body and brain with
the necessary nutriment, Cheap
cathartlc medicines masqueradlng
under the name of dyspepsia cures
are useless for relief or cure OF in
digestion, because they have abso-
lutely no effect upon the actual
digestion of food.
Dyspepsia in all its forms is sim
ply failure of the stomach to
digest food and the only sensible !
way to solve the riddle and cure
the indigestion is to make daily
use at meal time of safe prep
arstion which is endorsed by the
medical profession and known to
contain active digestive principles,
and all this can truly be said of
Stusrts Dyspepsia Tablets.
Al druggists throughout the
United States. Canada and Great
Britain sell them at the uniform
price of fifty cents for full treat
ment.

Cyclone Jim and the Monkey.

The lecture on Venezuela to be given
at the Opera House tonight is so full
of variety, that there is something in
it for everybody and the interest is
sustained without a break from begin
ming to end. All the young people
will be glad to learn the customs in
vogue at Venezuelan parties and some
of them will be interested in the Vene-
zue.an method OF counting. There is
Information for the student. there is
wit and pathos and eloquence and there
is plenty Of fun and humor. The stor-
les of Cyclone Jim and the Monkey"
and why the Devil Did not Wear His
Horns In Venezuela" never fell to pro-
woke roars of laughter. A lecture need
not necessarily be dull in order to be
instructive, and a good point can be
driven home with a laugh much better
than with a groan. II is especially re-
quested that the audie7ce DO in their
seats tonight promptly at S:15, as the
lights are nessarily turned out in order
to show the pictures, and those who
come late will create confusion in
finding their seats.

The $1,000 damage suit of Hannah
Fluharty against DR.. r. NJ. Rau, for
alleged malpractice ended yesterday
before Judge II. C. Hervey In the Cir
cult Court. The arguments occupied
nearly the entire day, and the matter
was in the hands of the jury at five
O'Clock. But one ballot was necessary,
and the jurymen were out just seven
minutes when they returned with
verdict for the defendant.
The Direct examination of the de-
fendantfwas concluded early, and h.
was Subjected to cross-examination by
Col. Arnett. Considerable wrangling
was INDUCED in. The arguments com
menced about eleven o'clock, the court
allowing each side an hour and thrse
quarters.
Col. Arnett ended for the plaintiff
ard was followed by Col Geo. B Cald-
well, for the defendant Gen. Alfrad
Caldwell made a particularly fine adj
dress for DR.. Rau, his defense Of one
OF the witnesses whose evidence the
plaintiff side had sought to break down,
having a perceptibIe effect upon the
jury. At five o'clock Col Arnett con-
oluded, his closing address and the ca e
went to the Jury.
There was but one instruction from
the plaintiffs side-that if the defend
ant had broken Fluharty's leg and at
tempted surgical operation upon t
without his consent, plaintiff was en-
titled to recover damages. The defend
ants instructions were to the effect
that the highest degree of skill cannot
be expected Of d physician or surgeon;
that it is the duty of a patient to CO.
operate with his physician; that the
plaintiff was not entitled to receive
anything for the pain or suffering
which he experienced, unless they were
caused by the neglect of the physician.

WAS the Accident ON the Pnn-Hcn-
die Near Wiison-The Wrecked
Cars Quickly Removed.
The wreck on the Panhandle late
Wednesday night near Wilson's, which
was noted exclusively in yesterdays
Register, was due, it has now been
discovered, to the breaking of the
fiange on one OF the wheels of a freight
car truck
Not the slightest blame attaches to
the road officials or to the men in
charge of the train, as the accident
had its origin in a cause impossible to
foresee. The great steel crane OF the
Fort Wayne wrecking train was quick
ly brought down and in marvellously
short time had lifted the deralled
freight cars to the track and removed
every vestige of the wreck, save some
steel clippings with which some Of the
cars had been loaded.
No person whatever was injured and
nearly all of the derailed cars will
after slisht repairs, be in use again.
Neither the engine or caboose left the
track

"Petticoats and Bayonets" new dra-
ma in which Wagenhals & Kemper are
starring Mr. Arthur Byron, was pre-
sented at the Opera House last evening
to fair sized and very appreciative
audience. Notwithstanding the ia t
that it has been produced but a few
times upon any stage, the play proceed
ed smoothly and without friction, an !
the work of the cast was Of such a high
ORDER that enthusiastic curtain cas-
were given after each act. the scenes
are laid in Germantown during the Re
evolutionary period, and as it has a mil
it8ry tfnse the opportunity is afforded
for the display OF handsome stage set
tings and bright eolored costumes. The
theme is an old one-the struggle be-
tween love and duty-but it is pre-
sented in a new and charming way.
The nero Is a patriot spy, the heroine
a Tory. whose love for her sweetheart
wins the mastery over her loyalty to
King George OF England. Mr.. Byron
in the one roe, and Miss Katherine
Grey in the other, did really excellent
work, and they were given capable
support by a long cast. Mr. Byron is
forceful and magnetic; Miss Grey is
winsome and ingenious; both are art
igtic. Tho production delighted all
who witnessed It.
