Cluds certain testimony the attorneys
came together In wOrdy war. and
sharp exchanges held the attention OF
Judge and jury for some fifteen min

there would be scene, but Judge Nc
Bride cut the argument short by over
ruling the motion
The plaintiff in the case alleges that
she worked for Byron Klmball FOR a

her husband was Jointly interested with

TO FIX BUILDING LINES.
Mount Pleasant Citizens Regard ii
Necessary TO Property Values.

The regular monthly meeting Of the
Mount Pleasant Citizens Association was
held last night At the Hotel Stratford.
Mai. II. II. Twombley, the president, pre-
sided, and Robert II. Young acted as sec
retary. After the regular routine bust
ness had been transacted the following
persons were elected to membership: p.
c. Warman, Thomas 9. Stuart, and DR..
Wooster.
resolution which met with general
approval was then introduced. 1t called
attention to the fact that il was a necessi-
ty for the increase in valuation Of prop
erty In Mount Pleasant that building lines
should be established, and that persons
building in that section of the city should
conform TO the regulations. The resO-
luton further recommended thdt the
president appoint special committee on
building lines, one member TO be civil
engineer, one an architect, and another
q lawyer. This committee Will confer and
draw uD such system OF building lines
as they think Is practical and will meet
with general approval. President IwOmb-
ley appointed the following as members
OF the committee: G, l.. Harding, Chapln
Brown. +. L. Averill w. i. Watson, and
| Thomas Blagden.
Mr. Warman introduced a resolution
which called attention TO the fact that
the mOtormen and conductors of cars Of
! the Capital Traction afforded no cOnve-
niences for passengers to transfer at the
corner of Fourteenth and L Streets The
Fourteenth Street and L Street lines in
terseCt there and il is stated that often
when two trains approach the corner 81
multaneOusly the mortormeu Will not halt
their cars long enough TO enable passcn-
gers to transfer. The resolution was
adopted and the complaint will be brought
TO the attention Of the management of
the Capital Traction Company.
Another complaint was lodged against
| the same street car company by Thomas
! Blagden. who spoke Of the banking and
| switching of cars on Fourteenth Street
| near Kenesaw Avenue. it is at this
! point the cars are switched from one track
! to the other before they make the return
| trip to the downtown district. Mr. Blag-
! den said that often there were four and
| sometimes six cars standing in the street
/ at the same constant source Of
/ danger TO pee 20 carriages. 1t
| was stated that lpany had no right
| to switch its cars in the streets The
| cars switch almost directly in front OF
| an engine house, and there is also a dan
ger OF collision when the fire engine comes
| out on a run. This would be doubly dan
| gerous in summer time when the open
! cars are crowded with passengers.

THEORIES Asoy1 II FOOD.
Also n Few Facts on the Same Sui
iPct.

We hear much nowadays about health
foods and hygienic living, about vegeta-
rianism and many other f8ds along the
same line.
Restaurants NAV be found i'm the large
cities where no meat, pastry or coffee is
served and the food crank is in his glory,
and arguments and theories galore ad-
VarCed to prove that meat was never in
tended for human stomachs, and almost
make us believe that cur sturdy ancestors
who lived four score years in robust
must have been grossly ignorant of the
laws of health.
Our forefathers had other things to do
than formulate theories about the food
they ate 4 warm welcome was extended
TO any kind from bacon to acorns.
healthy appetite and common sense
are excellent guides TO follow in matters
of diet, and a mixed diet Of grains, fruits,
and meats is undoubtedly the best.
As compared with grains and vegetables,
meat furnishes the most nutriment in a
highly concentrated form and is digested
and assimilated more quickly than vege-
tables and grains.
DR. Julius Remmson on this subject
says: Nervous persons. people run down
in health and of low vitality should cat
meat and plenty of IT. If the digestion
is too feeble at first il may be easily cor
reCted by the regular use of Stuarts Dys-
pepsia Tablets after each meal. Two of
these excellent tablets taken after dinner
will digest several thousand grains of
hours, and no matter how weak the
stomach may be, no trouble will be ex+
perienced if regular practice is made of
using Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets because
they supply the pepsin and diastaSe nee
essary to perfect digestion. and every
form of indigestion will be overcome by
their use.
That large class of people who come
under the head Of nervous dyspeptics
should eat plenty of meat and insure it's
proper digestion by the daily use of a
safe, harmless digestive medicine like
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets composed Of
the natural digestive principles, pepsin
diastase fruit acids, and salts. which
actually perform the work of digestion
Cheap Cathartic medicines, masquerading
under the name of dyspepsia cures are
useless for Indigestion as they have alb
solutely no effect upon the actual diges-
tiOn of food.
Dyspepsia in all it's many forms is sim
ply failure Of the stomach to digest
food and the sensible way to solve the
riddle and cure the dyspepsia is to make
daily use at meal time of preparation
like Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets. which is
endorsed by the medical profession and
known to contain active digestive princi-
pies.

Tablets at SOC for fun treatment
