BRAIN FOOD
Is of Little Benefit Unless 1t Is Dl
 gested.

Nearly every one will admit that as a
 nation we eat too much meat and too lit- tie of vegetables and the grains. | For business men, office men and clerks,
 and in fact every one engaged in seden- | tary or indoor occupations, grains, milk | and vegetables are much more health ful.
 Only men engaged in severe outdoor manuel labor can live on a heavy meat
 diet and continue in health. As a general rule, meat once a day is
 sufficient for all classes of men, women and children, and grains, fruit and vege- tables should constitute the bulk of food eaten.
 But many of the most nutricious foods are difficult of digestion and 1t is of no use to advise brain workers to eat largely of grains and vegetables where the di- gestion Is too weak to assimilate them properly.
 It Is always best to get the best re- suits form our food that some simple and
 harmless digestive should be taken after meals to assist the relaxed digestive or | gans and several years experience have | proven Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets to be | a very safe, pleasant and effective diges- | tive and a remedy which may be taken daily with the best results Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets can hardly be called a patent medicine, as they do | not act on the bowels nor any particular | organ but only on the food eaten. They supply what weak stomachs lack, pepsln | diastase and by stimulating the gastric | glands increase the natural secretion of | hydrochloric acid.
 People who make daily practice of | taking one or two of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets after each meal are sure to have perfect digestion which means perfect | health.
 There is no danger of forming an in- | furious habit as the tablets contain abso- | lutely nothing but natural digestives; CO., caine, morphine and similar drugs have | no place in stomach medicine and Stu | arts Dyspepsia Tablets are certainly the best known and most popular of all stom- | ach remedies.
 | Ask your druggist for fifty cents pack
 age of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets and af- | ter a weeks use note the improvement | in health, appetite ana nervous energy.

The Conference Report Adopted
An Increase of Nearly Million
Over Last Year-Dispute Over the
Transfer of Land for an AImshouse

/ The conference report on the District of
! Columbia Appropriation bill was agreed
to yesterday in the House. The signature
of the President is all that is now re-
quired to make the bill a law.
! Mr.. Grout presented the report. He eX-
pi.dned that the bill under consideration
calleu for $y62, 500 more than that OF the
year previous. 1t carries sS,554.97l, which
is $I63,3o5 more than the House bill pro-
vided for. and $SC4.OS0 less than the Sen
ate bill asked. The increase this ear has
come in the following items Sewers.

Mr.. Robinson objected to the Senate
amendment providing for s25 90 to buy a
site for an almshouse. The confe! ees
now attach, he said, "a provision for the
donation of ffty-nine acre tract from
the grounds of the Government Insane
Asylum
he clause is simply permissive, in
terrupted Mr.. Grout.
MIR. kobinson-I desire to make a point
of order against it 1t is entirely new
should be voted down.
The Speaker overruled the point of or
der and then Mr.. Robinson began a dis
cussion. This is an aggravated instance
of legislation which slips in by the back
door. This provision for donation of land
is the fabrication of the conferees. This
thing is re-echo of the Insane Asylum
controversy The Secretary of the in
terror is now empowered to give to the
District of Columbia fifty-nine and one
half acres of land worth s65, ,O0a This land
is what was so much condemned last
week. II is only too true that the location
is most unhealthy. There is no place in
the country where malaria is so preva-
lent. 1t is proposed to put the paupers of
the District in that dangerous place. 1t
Is Simply trick to get land from the
government without paying. The Dis
trict OF Columbia pays one-half on all the
school lands; why should it get this free?
Th1s IL scheme of the conferees.'
MIR. Grout defended the provision for
donating land. THE superintendent of
the asylum has told the conference COM
mittee that. the land under discussion is
absolutely of no use to the asylum and
that there is some idea of disposiag of it
We desire, seeing that there is so much
opposition to the purchase Of land for
District purposes, to use what we could
get without paying for it, The land cost
$4,000 at first. Ii is worth more now. In
fact. it was proposed to tax the District
$4,000 on it If It were purchased"
~ hy should the District not pay half
the $6.oo0?" asked Mr.. Shafroth.
