A Family Quarrel.

A Simpson hotel bar room was the
scene of family quarrel a day or two
ago in which an innocent party fared
very battle. After a fierce wordy war,
which lasted for some time, the wo-
man, who was the mother-in-law of
the man with whom she was quarrel
Ing, became exasperated beyond
bounds and threw heavy article, said
to be a beer glass, at the man. The
aim was good, but the man jumped out
of the way and the glass struck his
little daughter, who had been standing
behind him. A painful wound was
caused, but the attending physician
said 1t was nothing really serious This
distressing episode, however, ended the
racket.

WHAT SHALL WE Rat
To Keep Healthy and Strong.

A healthy appetite and common
sense are excellent guides TO follow in
matters OF diet, and a mixed diet Of
grains, fruits and meats Is undoubted-
~ the best, In spite Of the claims made
py vegetarians and food cranks gen.
orally.
AS compared with grains and vege-
tables, meat furnishes the most nutri-
ment In a highly concentrated form
ana Is digested and assimilated more
quickly than vegetables or grains.
Dr. Julius Remusson on this subject
says: Nervous persons. people run
down In health and OF low vitality
should eat plenty of meat. If the di-
gestion Is too feeble at first 1t may be
easily strengthened by the regular use
OF Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets after
each meal. Two of these excellent tab
let's taken after dinner will digest sew
eral thousand grains OF meat, eggs or
other animal food in three or four
hours, while the malt diastase also con-
tained In Stuarts Tablets cause the
perfect digestion OF starchy foods, like
potatoes, bread, etc, and no matter
how weak the stomach may be. no
trouble will be experienced IL a regular
pepsia Tablets because they supply the
pepsin and diastase so necessary to
perfect digestion, and any form Of in
digestion 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 dyspeptics
should eat plenty OF meat and insure
its complete digestion by the systemat-
ic use of a safe, harmless digestive
medicine like Stuart's Dyspepsia Tab
lets composed of the natural digestive
principles, peptones and diastase,
which actually perform the work of
digestion and give the abused stomach
chance to rest and TO furnish the
BODY and brain with the necessary
nutriment. Cheap cathartic medicines
masquerading under the name of dys-
pepsia cures are useless for relief or
cure of Indigestion because they have
absolutely no effect upon the actual di-
gestion of food.
Dyspepsia In all its forms is simply n
failure of the stomach to digest food
and the sensible way to solve the riddle
and cure the indigestion Is to make
daily use at meal time of a safe pre-
paration which is endorsed by the
medical profession and known to con-
tain active digestive principles and all
this can truly be said of Stuart's Dys-
pepsia Tablets.
