WANT NO MORE MONEY.
Shiloh Commission Making Up 1t
Own Deficit.

Des Moines, Dec 2O.-The Shiloh
commission appointed by Governor
Shaw will ask no more money at the
hands of the coming legislature. The
twenty-eighth general assembly appro-
priated $4,000 for the purpose of
marking the ground occupied by the
eleven Iowa regiments in the battle of
Shiloh, together with $4,000 for ex-
penses. This latter sum will not quite
pay the expenses OF the commission,
but the members have decided to
make up the deficit themselves, and
not ask an additional appropriation.

Mail Sack Breaks Switch.
Young Carbine is employed at La
Grange as a messenger for the West
ern Union at the Fifth avenue station.
He had gone out on the tracks on
Wednesday morning to gather up some
mail sacks that had been thrown from
the rear platform of the Burlington
fast mail that had passed over the
switch a few seconds before. AS he
picked up on sack he noticed it had
struck the switch stand and snapped
it squarely off, allowing the switch to
play open.

PER

Is OFTEN THE REAL CAUSE OF A SOUR TEN
PER.
That the condition of the digestive organs has
marked effect upon the character or disposition Is
truism old the hills. Old Ben johnson
wisely said the pleasure Of living depends upon
the liver. and it is fact which none may dispute
that sunny disposition more often results from
healthy digestion than from any other cause.
Acid dyspepsia. commonly called sour stomach or
heartburn, is caused hy slow digestion Of food;
instead of being promptly digested and converted
into blood, bone and muscle 1t lies in the stomach
for hours. fermentng and decayinG. creating gases
which cause pressure on the lungs and heart, short
breath and general discomfort and irritation
Such half digestcd food is indeed poor nourish-
ment for the body. brain and nerves. and the result
is shown in irritable tcmpers. unaccoun able head
aches and that depressing condition usually called
the blues but how quickly all these disappear
when appetite and digestion are restored
Laxative medicines only irritate the already irri-
tated stomach and bowels and have no effect upon
actual digestion OF food.
The sensible course to follow is to make use OF
simple natural digestives like Stuart's Dyspepsia
Tablets after meals until the stomach has a chance
to recuperate.
The natural diges,ives which every healthy stom-
ach contains are peptones. dastase and HYDRO
chloric and Tactic acids and when any Of them are
lacking the trouble begins; the Stuarts Dys
pepsia Tablets are valuable and successful in
curing stomach troubles is because they contain
In a pleasant concentrated tablet FORM all these
absolutely necessary essentials for perfect digestion
and assimilation Of food.
Henry kirkpatrick Of Lawrence Mass says:
Men and women whose occupation precludes an
active outdoor life should make it daily practtce
to use Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets after meals: l
have done so myself and know positively that I
owe my present health and viSor to their daily
use.
From the time was %, when graduated from
school with broken health from overwork until l
was "a. l scarcely knew what it was to be free
from stomach weakness. I had appetite what
ever for breakfast and very little for any other
meal.
Il had acidity and heartburn nearly every day
and sometimes was alarmed by irregularity and
palpitation Of the heart, but all this gradually
disappeared after began using Stuart's Dyspepsfa
Tablets and 1 can eat my meals with relish and
satisfaction which had not known since 1 was a
growing boy"
The success and popularity Of Stuart's Dyspepsia
Tablets is enormous. but 1t is deserved, and every
druggist in the United States. Canada and Great
Britain has good word for this meritorous prepa-

IN FAVOR OF DEFENDANT.
Outcome of Suit Filed Against Lieut..
Commander Rodney.

After arguments by counsel, Justice of
the Peace Callan, late yesterday, decided
in favor of the defendant in the case of
Miss Isabel NJ Cole against Lieut.. Com
mander Robert Burton Rodney, United
States navy, retired. Miss Cole sued to re-
cover 5000. claimed to be due her from
Rodney for services as companion to his
wife.
The contract Of companionship was held
to be void by Justice of the Peace Callan.
because it operated in restraint of the
marital rights of the husband, as evidenced
by the conduct of the plaintiff toward the
defendant, from the day of marriage of
Rodney and his wife to the time of the
bringing of the suit.
1t is understood that counsel for Miss
Cole will take the case, on appeal, to the
Supreme Court of the District of Columbia.
