RESTORING MEN TO HEALTH
BY william Cole, NJ. D.. washington. D. c.

~ "AAAAhIA NoACb N b-s bOHs " "
During the examination OF men for the
army, during our recent war with Spain, our
United States Army physicians were shocked
to find 50 large percentage OF men dis
qualified because Of nervous disorders. IL 10
not the purpose OF these reports TO enter into
a statement Of causes. other than to say the
sufferer is seldom TO blame. His condition IL
Indeed dcPiorb.e; his memory fails him, his
energy gone, his eyesight dimmed his muscles
soft ana his nervous stamina gone. He Is
pitied by those versed In nervous disorders
and repealed by those OF both who do not
understand how dark the world IS to him.
Some fifteen years ago the writer gave at
tentiOn to the cure OF nervous q sarders and
found that the late DIR. Wilson. Professor Of
Chemistry and Practitioner OF Medicine In
Bellevue Medical College Of New York, had
n formula Of wonderful power to restore to
men the fu.lness Of their physical and mental
strength. In the year 1SS3 the celebrated DR..
Wilson died. and his formula has been OBJ
tained by l.. +. Page. Of 2i0 State street.
Marshall. Michigan. who prepares Il accord
ing to the original prescription. and from our
analysis OF the same, by Our Board Of In
vestigation, we find 4 composed OF pure and
fresh drugs, and that IL Is sold under the
name OF "Dr. Wilson's Restorative Rene
dies" Our investigation was extended into
great number Of similar preparations. nons
Of which were found equal to the above
while many were prepared by those who
knew little or nothing about therapeutics or
materia medica. We hereby caution the pub
lie against the use of al uncertain remedies,
and TO all who need nerve-Iife bringing medi-
cine we recommend them to take DR.. Wilson's
Restorative Remedies. prepared and sold By
l.. +. Page. 210 State street. Marshall, Mchi-
gan, and unto the aforesaid Dr. Wilson's Re-
stOrative Remedies We extend the official en-
dorsement Of the United States investigating
Reports.
While 1t Is true that the formula Is more
or less well known, 1t Is also especially trus
that very few druggists have the proper In
gradients in fresh condition. and as old drugs
are quite inert It follows that the padent
should secure the prescription direct from L.
f. Page and thus be assured OF Its full ierve-
restoring power. We found that the genuine,
as above, would restore the organs. and BY Its
use bring to the user full mental and physl-
cal power and activity and the enjoyment Of
life's greatest blessings. The private testi-
mOnia.s were examined into and found truth
full copies OF the originals, every one being
genuine. The financial standing OF L. +.
Page proved OF the highest, so that sufferers
may safely forward money to him for the
greatest OF curatives, Dr.. Wilson'S Restora-
tive Remedies.

"Yes."
What did he say?"
THAT he might be induced 20 do so,
but that you had better not put yourself
in his way until we had a direct promise
from him.
What is the penalty for resisting a
Sheriff, father? Is it hanging"
NO. Judge Lucas says it amt, and 1
reckon he knows
Well, what would they do with me if
they caught me?'
They could send you to the peniten-
tiary."
that old rascal, La Boone, | don't care
much what they do with me-"
But there is no need of your even be-
ing sent to jail. ! am going to st. Charles
tomorrow, and will see him and try to
get the case dismissed"
''Old La Boone will object to that"
yet; but l think L can overcome him:
I'm goin' to make mighty hard trial"
When will you startT'
Tomorrow"
And will you go from there to st.
LOUISE
Yes"
"Whie there you will see Judge Lucas
again, and once more you can lay the
whole matter before him. Tell him how
the old rascal has prosecuted Eunice to
add to our own burden of trouble, and
perhaps gain something by her Eastern
connections"
1t was then decided that George should
iinger in the woods near the settlement I'M
til the father could bring him the result of
his visit to st. Charles. They parted,
Mr. McNair going home and George re-
entering the school-house to sleep until
morning.
On the next morning after his inter-
view with his son, Mr.. McNair saddlcd his
large bay horse and set out for st.
Charles. At noon he halted at the house
Of Mr.. Jennings, who had once been his
nearest neighbor, but who was now re-
garded as remotely removed.
Jennings was engaged in his Spring
plowing, and had just come in to dinner,
when Mr.. McNair rode up to the gate
why, hello. McNair; light an look
at yer saddle" cried Mr.. Jennings, going
out to the gate and grasping his extended
hand. yer jist in time for dinner.
Didn't know ye was comm, or we'd a
fixed up fur ye. The woman'd a-killed
the old hen and churned; but come long,
any way. Ye kin eat once what we have
to live on all the time. I'll hev Gramvel

then put him up an feed him fur ye.

my life. 1t now seems to me that fol
years l never knew what it was to be
hungry, to have good natural appetite
Il was troubled with gas in stomach
causing pressure on the heart with palpi.
tatiOn and short breath. Nearly every
thing l ate soured on my stomach, some
times | had cramps in the stomach which
almost resembled spasms.
Doctors told me | had catarrh of the
stomach, but their medicines would not
reach it, and l would still be sufferer
had | not, in sheer desperation, decided
to try Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets.
II knew they were an advertised rem
edy, and | didn't believe anything | read
about them, as | had no confidence in
advertised remedies, but my sister, living
in Pittsburg, wrote me last Spring, tell
ing me how Stuart's Tablets had cured
her little daughters of Indigestion and loss
of flesh and appetite, and l hesitated no
longer.
IL bought a fifty-cent box at my drug
store and took two of the large tablets
after each meal, and found them delight
full to take, being as pleasant to the taste
as caramel candy. Whenever during the
day or night | felt any pain or uneasi-
ness in the stomach or about the heart |
took one of the small tablets, and in three
weeks it seemed to me as il | had never
known what stomach trouble was.
Il keep Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets in
the house, and every member Of our fam
lily uses them occasionally after a hearty
meal, or when any of us have a pain or
ache in the digestive organs"
Mr.. 10. III. Davis, of Hampton. Va,
says: Il doctored FIVE years for dyspep-
sia, but in two months | got more ben
eft from Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets than
in five years of the doctors treatment"
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets is the safest
as well as the simplest and most conyen-
lent remedy for any form OF indigestion,
catarrh of the stomach, biliousness, sour
stomach, bloating after meals, sympa-
thetic heart trouble.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tabl-.- is not a
cheap cathartic. but an active digestive
remedy, containing the pepsin and
diatase which every weak stomach lacks.
and they cure stomach troubles because
they digest the food eaten and give the
weak, abused, overwOrked stomach a
chance to rest and recuperate.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are sold in
every drug store in the United States,
Canada and Great Britain.

the woman gets somethin' fur dinner
They were soon seated on the porch,
the horse, with saddle removed, was drink

sisted by her oldest daughter, ''hurTying

President Roosevelt and the Machine.

The President seems to be having it in
for the machine" and his treatment Of
the regulars" has been quite disturbing
to those who feel that they own and con-
troll the Republican party in their several
States. His treatment of Senator Deboe,
ex-Gov. Bradley, Representative Boreing,
Mr.. Yerkes, and other of the Kentucky
leaders, at a recent interview, was quite
depressing. Deboe insisted that he was
United States Senator from Kentucky,
knew the situation in the State, and had
right to be heard; but the President
told him in effect, to "Go way back and
sit down.

She Is three or four days journey from

they are very rude people. She is
happy as she can be under such cir
cumstances. She grieves to return to

Of such a thing until she is of age, she
has grown quite resigned"
They sat upon the step, and the father
asked:

II don't know. l shall never go with
the trappers or boatmen again. They are
too coarse, too rough and cruel, and life
among them is held too cheap. If the
Sheriff would dismiss the case against me

The National tribune., 1901-12-05

Col. ]. w. Babbitt, Keene, N H, was
in the city last week visiting New Hamp-
shire friends. He was on his way home
from Vicksburg and Knoxville, whittier he
had been with the New Hampshire Ma
tional Park Commission, locating the po-
sitions occupied by New Hampshire regi-
ments during the Ninth Corps campaign.
The Commission consists of Gen. S. G.
Griffin, who was Captain in the I'd n. H,
and Lieutenant Colonel of the 9th n. H.;
Col. j. W. Babbitt, 9th n. H.; and Capt.
s. n. Carr, 1lth n. II. They had no
difficulty in locating the positions occupied
by the regiments. Col. Babbitt had a
most varied experience in the war. He
was residing in Illinois at the time the
rebellion broke out, and promptly enlisted
in the Sth Ill. At the conclusion of the
three months service he raised a COM
pany for the 5Sth ILL.,, but was SO badly
wounded at Shiloh that he resigned. He
went back to New Hampshire to recover.
and there raised a company for the 9th n.
H.. and became Lieutenant Colonel of the
regiment. He was in command of the
regiment in the Wilderness, where he re-
ceved permanently disabling wound,
and was compelled to leave the army. He
has been in the express business.

Saw Marvellous Things.

: Messrs. Will Elicit, Spence McFall,
Lee Sacra and j. A...Rogers were enter
tanned Sunday by Mr.. Fayette Tom
linson at the home of his parents, Mr..
and Mrs. Joe Tomlinson, at Culleoka.
The day was most happily spent by the
visitors, and Mrs. Tomlinson's hospi-
tally was very much enjoyed. They
spent several hours roaming through
the fields and woods, and returned home
with many interesting tales OF the won,
derfui sights they beheld. Among the
curiosities they saw was rock. eating
dog belonging to Mr.. j. B. Kerr-a
canine that eats rocks, from the size OF
a marble to hen egg, with as much
relish as an ordinary dog devours beef.
They youch for the statement that the
dog ate washpanful of rocks while
they were there. They saw another dog
that jumped five feet high anu caught
onto a plank by his teeth, holding him
self there until his picture could be
photographed. On the farm of Mr..
Bell they saw a number of ''stiff-
legged" sheep, that became frightened
at the slightest noise aid turned them
selves over on their backs AID held
their legs straight up in the air. Mr..
Bell also has the latest horse for many
miles around, and, although the animal
is stone blind, he runs about among
barbed wire fences as though he had
good eyes. Mr.. Tomlinson showed
them another horse that picks up
chickens and eat them like other horses
eat grass, and also his dwarf mule,
" hich is said to be the smallest animal
of its kind in captivity. Among other
things that they heard of but did not
see, was man with his knee-caps on
the wrong side of his knee. The boys
declare their statements are all true,
and, if necessary will make affidavit to
them before notary public.

NinetY-Eiaht Per Cent.

There is fascinating about big profits
to business man. But the conserva-
tive and cautious trader prefers To have
the lesser per cent. of interest and the
larger per cent. of safety in his invest
ments. There is no business man who
would not consider it sound PROPOSE
tion to invest in an enterprise in which
absolute loss was impossible and which
offered min ETY. eight chances in hum
bred of a rich profit. The statistics OF
cures effected by DR.. Pierce's Golden
M edical Discovery show that ninety
eight per cent. of cases of 'w eak lungs"
can be absolutely cured. Almost if not
all forms of physical weakness may be
traced to starvation. Starvation saps
the strength. The body is just as much
starved when the stomach cannot ex-
tract nutrition from the food it receives
a. when there is no food. "Weak lungs"
bronchial affections, obstinate coughs,
call for nouris ment. "Golden Medic IL
Discovery" supplies that nourishment
in its most condensed and assimilable
form. 1t makes "weak lungs" strong,
by strengthening the stomach and or
gans of digestion which digest and dis
tribute the food, and by increasing the
supply of pure blood.
