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 al the Hotel Stratford
Mai II. II. Twombley. the president pre-
sided, and Robert II. Young acted as sec
rotary. After the regular routine bust
ness had been transacted the following
persons were elected to membership: p
c. Warman, Thomas c. Stuart, and DR..
Wooster
A resolution which met with general
approval was then introduced. 1t called
attention to the fact that it was necessi-
~ 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 that the
president appoint a special committee on
building lines, one member 10 be a civil
engineer. one an architect, and another
a LAWYER This committee will confer and
draw up such a system Of building lines
as they think is practical and Will meet
with general approval. President TwOmb-
ley appointed the following as members
OF the committee: c. l.. Harding, Chaplin
Brown, +. l.. AVerill, w. Il. 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 it is stated that often
when two trains approach the corner 81
multaneously the mortormen Will not halt
their cars long enough to enable passen-
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 1t 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. Bag-
den said that often there were four and
sometimes six cars standing in the street
at the same constant source of
danger to ped 20 carriages. 1t
was stated that .- I.pany had no right
to switch it's cars in the streets The
cars switch almost directly in front of
an engine house, and there is also a dam
ger OF collision when the fire engine comes
ont on a run. This would be doubly dan
| gerous In summer time when the open
! cars are crowded with passengers.

very common disease. They drink quaE-

THEORIES AsoyrREoop.
Also n Few Facts ON the Same sub
Ieci.

We hear much nowadays about health
foods and hygienic living, about vegeta-
rianism and many other fads along the
same line.
Restaurants may be found in 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-
vanced to prove that meat was never in
tended for human stomschs, and almost
make us believe that our sturdy ancestors
who lived four score years in robust
health on roast beef, pork, and mutton
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 A warm welcome was extended
TO any kind from bacon TO acorns.
A healthy appetite and common sense
are excellent guides to follow in matters
of diet, and 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 ii. II the digestion
is too feeble at first it may be easily cor
rected by the regular use of Stuart's Dys-
pepsia Tablets after each meal. Two of
these excellent tablets taken after dinner
will digest several Thousand grains of
meat. eggs or other animal food In three
hours, and no matter how weak the
stomach may he, no trouble will be ex.
perienced if regular practice is made OF
using Stuart's Dyspepsia, Tablets because
they supply the pepsin ana diastase nee
essary to perfect digestion, and every
form Of Indigestion will be overcome 10y
their use.
That large class of people who come
under the head of nervous dyspeptcs
should eat plenty of meat and insure its
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 abb
solutely no effect upon the actual diges-
ton of food
Dyspepsia in all its 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 n preparation
like Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets. which is
endorsed by the medical profession and
known to contain active digestive princi-
pies.
