THE FEAR OF HUMBuG.
Prevents Many People From Trying a
Good Medicine.

s. Good Medicine.
Stomach troubles are so common anu
In most cases 50 obstinate to cure that
people are apt to look with Suspicion on
any remedy claiming to be a radical per-
manent cure for dyspepsia and lndiges-
ton, Many such pride themselves on
their acuteness in never being hum
buggeti, especially in medicines
This fear of being humbugged can be
carried too far, so far, in fact, that
many people suffer for years with weak
digestion rather than risk little time
and money in faithfully testing the
claims made of a preparation so reliable
and universally used as Stuarts Dys-
pepsia Tablets.
Now Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are
vastly different in one important re-
spect from ordinary proprietary medl-
cines for the reason that they are not
secret patent medicine, no secret is
made of their ingredients, altho they
are sold by all druggists under protec-
ton of Trademarks but analysis shows
them to contain the natural digestive
ferments, pure aseptic pepsin, the oil
gestive acids. Golden Seal, bismuth. hy-
dastis and nux. They are not cathartic'
neither do they act powerfully on any
organ, but they cure indigestion on the
common sense plan of digesting the
food eaten thoroughly before it 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 trou-
bles because they act entirely upon the
hauols uhareaS the whole trouble is
really in the stomach.
Stuart,s Dyspepsia Tablets taken af-
ter meals digest the food. That is all
there Ia to it Food not digested or
half digested Is poison, as it creates
gas, acidits headaches, palpitation OF
the heart, loss OF flesh and many other
troubles which are often called by some
other name.

JUDGE PALMER'S DECISION
REVERSED BY JUDGE LINDSAY

Denver July 29.-In an exhaustive
opinion which showed. thorough re-
search and long study OF the issues in
volved, County Judge Ben B. Lindsay.
in the case of the city of Denver
against Dan Cronin last Saturday
ruled contrary to the decision of Judge
Palmer recently given authorizing the
selling of liquors TO women in wine
rooms. Judge Lindsay presents the
case clearly and effectively and backs
up his decision with rulings from the
California courts which We're quoted
by Judge Palmer and from the SUI
preme Court of the United States.
The fine of $50 imposed on Cronin in
the police court is doubled and the
ruling of the court upheld. Attorney
Milton Smith for the defendant took
an appeal and was given sixty days
in which to file q bill of exceptions.
In his decision Judge Lindsay claims
that the county court is the proper tri-
bunal for the trial of such cases. He
says:
at is undoubtedly the law, in my
opinion, that this court. and not the
district court is the forum. and the
only forum. this side of the appellate
courts that in the ordinary and
proper course of procedure mas any
right. authority or jurisdiction to in
terpret the ordinances of the city of
Denver. Violations OF the city ordin-
ances are prosecuted in the police
court. The right Of appeal is to this
court only. and thence to the Supreme
Court; thus the accused who may be
charged with their violation is af-
fortled speedy. plain, and to my mind
sufficient and adequate remedy at law.
as the defendant will be afforded in
this case.
1.-THE ordinances are not void. They
do not constitute the slightest in
fringement upon the constitutional
rights of women as those rights are
lawfully tested and properly under

at may be discrimination asa.ns,
a woman to preclude her from the sa.
