A REAL HORSELESS
 CARRIAGE IN TOWN An Automobile for President Mil-
 aer of Country Club IS OF THE VICTORIA TYPE The Beautiful Vehicle Will Attain a High Rate of Speed-Was DeIiv-
 cred Through Birmingham
 Arms 6 Cycle Company.
IS OF THE VICTORIA TYPE

The first real automobile of the Victoria type to make its appearance in Birming- ham was received yesterday by the Birm- ingham Arms and Cycle Company for President H. K Miner of the Coursry Club, and MT. Milner will use it for the first time today.
 This wonderfully rich and handsome ve- hicle is of the Victoria build and appear ance, having a folding top, and in other respects looking like a costly turnout for family use, being strong and durable, yet, thanks to the skill of the builders being graceful and high-as it may speed over the perfect county roads of Jefferson at thirty-five miles an hour. The paint of the body is of a darkish rosewood hue, with real leather covering, curtains and hang ings, whilst the steel rubber-tired wheels are of chrome shade. The axles, which are small enough to prevent an aspect of heavness, turn with the wheels, the wheels not revolving on the axles.
 As private vehicle, and apart from the novelty of it's propulsion, this automobile which the Birmingham Arms and Cycle Company has procured for MT. Milner, the first machine of its kind in Birmingham would be the handsomest private vehicle in the valley. it being superb in its every appoinSment and appearance; but driven, it may be, thirty-ive miles an hour, and by steam contrvance which cannot be seen, it Is certain to attract wide and admiring attention. The propelling ma chinery is concealed in the body back of the high and handsome seat, and to the onlooker it will appear to be propelled by some mysterious agency.
 This noble carriage is the latest and most emphatically approved type of the automobile, the best now manufactured in the world. It is the socalled Eos ter" machine, manufactured by Foster & Co. of New York and Rochester, N. Y., and cost about 5000. The agency of Eos ter & Co. lies with the Birmingham Arms and Cycle Company, MT. Robert H. Baughs most enterprising business firm.

A SOUR SToMAC. .
Is Often the Real Cause of Sour
 Temper.

That the condition of the digestive or gans has a marked effect upon the char acter or disposition is truism as old as the hills. Old Ben Johnson wisely said "the pleasure of living depends upon the liver and it is a fact which none may dispute that a sunny disposition more often results from healthy digestion than from any other cause.
 Acid dyspepsia, commonly called sour stomach or heartburn, is caused by slow digestion of food; instead of being prompt ly digested and converted into blood, bone and muscle, it lies in the stomach for hours, fermenting and decaying, creating gases which cause pressure on the lungs and heart, short breath and general dis comfort and irritation.
 Such half -digested food is indeed poor nourishment for the body, brain and nerves and the result is shown in irrita- ble tempers unacccountable headaches and that depressing condition usually called the blues but how quickly all these disappear when appetite and diges- tion are restored.
 Laxative medicines only irritate the all ready irritated stomach and bowels and have no effect upon actual digestion of food
 The sensible course to follow is to make use of simple natural dgestives like Stu arts Dyspepsia Tablets after meals until the stomach mas a chance 10 fecuperate.
 The natural digestives which every healthy stomach contains are peptones, diastase and Hydrochloric and tactic acids and when any of them are lacking the trouble begins; the reason Stuart's Dys- pepsia Tablets are so valuable and suc- cessful in curing stomach troubles is be- cause they contain, in a pleasant concen- trated tablet form all these absolutely necessary esentials for perfect digestion and assimilation of food
 Henry Kirkpatrick of Lawrence, Mass, says: Men and women whose occupa- tion precludes an active outdoor life should make it a daily practice to use Stuart's s Dyspepsia Tablets after meals. I have done so myself and I know positively that I owe my present health and vigor to their daily use.
 From the time I was 22 when I grad uated from school with broken health from overwork until I was 34 I scarcely knew what it was to be free from stomach weaknessl. I had no appetite whatever for breakfast and very little for any other meal.
 had acidity and heartburn nearly every day and sometimes was alarmed by irreg- ularity and palpitation of the heart, but all this gradually disappeared after I be- gan using Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets and I can eat my meals with relish and satis- faction which I had not known since I was a growing boy"
 The success and popularity of Stuart s Dyspepsia Tablets is enormous, but it is deserved, and every druggist in the United States, Canada and Great Britain has a good word for this meritorous prepara- tion.
