WHAT SHALL WE EAT
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 undoubt-
eddy the best, in spite of the claims
made by vegetarians and food cranks
generally.
As compared with grains and. vege-
tables, meat furnishes the m ost nutri-
ment in a highly concentrated form
and is digested and assimilated more
quickly than vegetables or grains.
DIR. Julius Remusson on this sub
ject says: Nervous persons, people
run down in health and of low vitality
should eat plenty of meat. If the d.
gestion is too feeble at first it may be
easily strengthened by the regular use
of Stuart's Dyspepsia 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 or four
hours, while the malt diastase also
contained in Stuart's Tablets cause
the perfect digestion of starchy foods,
like potatoes, bread, etc., aud no mat
ter how weak the stomach may be,
no trouble will be experienced if a
regular practice is made of using
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets because
they supply the pepsin. and diastase
so necessary to perfect digestion, and
any form of Indigestion and stomach
trouble except cancer of the stomach
will be overcome by their daily use.
The large class of people who come
under the head of nervous dyspeptics
/ 81 ~ iaa q
it's complete digestion by the sys-
tematic use of safe, harmless digest
i've medicine like Stuart's Dyspepsia
Tablets, composed of the natural
digestive principles, peptones and
diastase, which actually perform the
work of digestion and give the abused
stomach a chance to rest and to fur.
nish the body and brain with the nec-
essary nutriment. Cheap cathartic
medicines incorporating under the
name of dyspepsia cure are useless
for relief or cure of indigestion be-
cause they have absolutely no effect
upon the actual digestion OF food.
| Dysper STA in all its forms is simply
a 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 q safe
prepar alton which is Endorsed by the
medical professor aud known to con.
tain active digestive principles. and
all this can truly be said of Stuart's
Dyspepsia Tablets.

States, Canada and Great Britain sci

Boer Committee Appeals to the

Peaceful Pursuits.
STATEMENT OF A WAR OFFICE MAN
Boer Tactics Borrowed from Gomez
and Aguinaldo-ToughJ Job
for John Bull.


Cape Town, Jan. 9-The central
committee at Kroonstadt has issued
circular, in the course of which it
says: THE time has arrived for the
inhabitants of Orange River colony
TO make an effort to save the country
from further destruction. The country
is literally a vast wilderness. The
Farmers. ruined and facing starvation,
are obliged to go to the towns for pro-
lection, and huge refugee camps have
been formed by the British for them
This is caused by an obstinate minori-
", who will not bow to the inevitable"
The circular points out that the Brit
ish will never restore independence to
the republics. and urges upon the
burgheFs the duty of surrendering and
accepting the terms offered. The re-
cent Afrikander congress at Worcester
is criticised in the circular as mis-
leading the Beers and giving false i'm
pFeSSions.',.
Steyn the Man I'm the Way.
In conclusion the committee says:
1.-The British government is willing to
settle matters in a way not humiliat-
ing to u.s. We appeal to you TO appoint
another congress and to nominate men
of influence out of your list to visit
Mr.. Steyn and General DeWet and to
try to persuade them to accept the
terms Great Britain offers These two
men are the only obstacles to peace
We ask you to believe US when we say
that Mr.. Kruger and the late Trans
vaal government are willing, and
would already have accepted the Brit
ish terms, but Mr.. Steyn has refused
TO have anything to do with surrender.
No Hone of Helm from Europe.
''He has continued the war and has
encouraged the burghers with hope
that we would get European assist
ance. Today he is cut off from all COM
municationwith the outside world. You
know and we know how uufounded
that hope is. 1t is your duty to assist US
to make him understand this. We ap-
peal to you tor help as to end the I'M
happy state of affairs which is plung-
ing everybody into poverty and despair.
We appeal to you because we know
sou are able to assist us in the right
manner"
The committee includes W. E. De-
Wet, late assistant chief commandant:
three members of the vOlksraad, and
two Justices OF the peace.
