CATARRH or THE STOMACH.


\ Pleasant, Simple, Hut Safe and Ell
fectual Cure For 1t.
Catarrh of the stomach has long
been considered the next thing TO
incurable. The usual symptoms
are a full or bloating sensation
after eating, accompanied some
times with sour or watering ris-
ings, a formation of gases, causing
pressure on the heart and lungs
and difficult breathing. headaches,
tickle appetite, nervousness and a
general played out, languid feel
ing.
There is often a foul taste in the
mouth, coated tongue and if the in
terror of the stomach could be e
it would show a Shiny, inf1amed
condition.
The cure for this common and
obstinate trouble is found in a
treatment which causes the food to
be readily, thoroughly digested
before it has time to ferment and
irr4eate -Ae delicate mucous sur
faces Of the stomach. To secure a
prompt and healthy digestion is
the n necessary thing to do and
when normal digestion is secured
the catarrhal condition will have
disappeared.
According to DR.. Harlanson the
SAFEST and best treatment is TO
use after each meal a tablet, COM
posed of Disastase, Aseptic Pep
sin, a little Nux, Golden Seal and
fruit acids. These tablets can now
be found at all drug stores under
the name of Stuart's Dyspepsia
Tablets and not being a patent
a be used with perfect safety
and assurance that healthy appe-
tite and thorough digestion will
follow their regular use after meals
Mr.. N. j. Booher, Chicago, ILL.,,
writes: "Catarrh is a local condi-
ton resulting from a neglected cold
in the head, whereby the lining
membrane of the nose becomes in
famed and the poisonous discharge
therefrom passing backward into
the throatreaches the stomach, thus
producing catarrh of the stomach.
Medical authorities prescribed for
me for three years for catarrh of
stomach without cure, but to-day
/ am the happiest of men after hav-
ing used only one box of Stuarts
Dyspepsia Tablets. l cannot find
appropriate words to express my
good feeling. l have found flesh,
appetite and sound rest from their
use"
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets is the
safest preparation as well as the
simplest and most convenient rem
edy for any form of indigestion,
catarrh of stomach, b~iliousness,
sour stomach, heartburn and bloat-
ing after meals.

VIII Abandon the Creek Bridge.

VIII bando the Greek Bridge.
1t is stated on reliable authority that
within a few weeks the B. & o. com
pany will abandon the old wooden
bridge across the creek to Sixteenth
street, and in its stead trains will be
run across the new bridge and in a
curve across the property of the West
Virginia Steel Company and back of
the Bieberson property, on the north
side of the creek. AS o as the wea-
Their moderates two additional girders
will be placed across the creek, making
the new bridge a five-track one.
The changing of the track will be a
great improvement, as it will remove
the track from the end of the stone
bridg e and give more room, thus
making the crossing less dangerous.
