We do not deliberately form our
pet habits, but they are uncon-
sclously acquired. and grow as we
grow, and by the time we learn
they are hurting US, we And them
too strong to be easily broken.
Then, why not form a good
habit, a habit which will counter
act the many bad ones, in other
words, contract the questionable
habit of being always well.
The best health habit to get into
is to have and keep a vigorous
stomach; if you have a healthy di-
gestion, you car drink your beloved
coffee. smoke your favorite brand
OF tobacco, with little or no harm;
the mischief begins when these
things are forced upon the faithful
stomach, without any assistance.
Form the habit of taking after
meals some harmless but efficient
digestive which will relieve the
stomach of so much extra work.
Nature furnishes us with such
digestives and when they are COM
bined in such a pleasant prepara-
ton as Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets
they give the overworked stomach
just the necessary assistance to
secure perfect digestion without
any of the harmful effects of ca
thartics and similar drugs.
The habit Of taking Stuart's
Dyspepsia Tablets after meals is as
necessary to the weak stomach
as food itself, and indeed to get the
benefit from food eaten, nothing
better and certainly nothing safer
can be used.
Many families consider Stuart's
Tablets al as essential in the house
as knives and forks.
They consist entirely of natural
digestive principles without the
effect or characteristics of drugs;
they have no cathartic action, but
simply go to work on the food
eaten and digest it.
Take into account your bad
habits and the expense they entail
and then invest fifty cents in a box
Of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets and
e if your digestion for the next
month is not vastly improved.
Ask the clerk in any drug store
the name of the most successful
and popular stomach remedy, and
he will say Stuart's.

Though dc totful is her r'aim.
If Courage in the field of wal

She seeks the truth to mar;

And often wounds, It's said.
She tells a wondrous fairly tale
In language breezy as a gale
That sweeps adown the vale;
How Love is swiftly taking flight
In homes where once the hearth was
And peace was their delight.
She says her clergyman is tame
In preaching ever just the same; &.
The Word 10 her Il name.
Mark plainly III an age of strife
The competition rife,
She whispers names of those "a guess
Whom Fortune late hath brought dis

The guess spreads fast, like prairie

Envelops good and bad the same
In hume $ grasp and aim.
And thus in many devious ways
She shortens other peoples days.
And confidence delays.
