commonest thing they do for it is to
take some one of the many socalled
blood purifiers, which in many cases
are merely strong cathartics. Such
things are not needed. If the or
gans are in clogged condition, they
need only little help and they will
right themselves. Cathartics irri-
tate the sensitive Innings of the stom-
ach and bowels and often do more
harm than good.
Purging is not what is needed.
The thing to do is to put the food
in condition to be readily digested
and assimilated. Stuart's Dyspepsia
Tablets do this perfectly. They
partly digest what is eaten and give
the stomach just the help it needs.
They stimulate the secretion and eX-
erection of the digestive fluids and
relieve the congested condition of
the glands and membranes. They
put the whole digestive system in
condition to do its work. When that
is done you need take no more tab
lets, unless you eat what does not
agree with you. Then take one or
two tablets-give them needed help
and you will have no trouble.
It's common sense medicine and a
common sense treatment and it will
cure every time. Not only cure the
disease but cure the cause. Goes
about it in a perfectly sensible and
scientific way
We have testimonials enough to fill
book, but we don't publish many
of them. However,
Mrs. L. NJ. Faith of Byrd's Creek,
Wis, says: Il have taken all the
Tablets 1 got of you and they have
done their work well in my case, for
feel like a different person alto
gether. 1 don't doubt if L had not
got them l should have been at rest
by this time"
II. Z. Willard, Onslow, Ia, says:
mfr. White of Canton, was telling
me of your Dyspepsia Tablets curing
him of dyspepsia from which he had
suffered for eight years. AS 1 am Il
sufferer myself L wish you to send
me a package by return mail"
Phil Brooks, Detroit, Mich, says:
your dyspepsia cure has worked
wonders in my case. 1 suffered for
years from dyspepsia but am now
entirely cured and enjoy life as L
never have before. 1 gladly recon-
mend them.
1t will cost soc. to find out just
how much Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets
will help you. Try them-that's the
best way TO decide.
All druggists sell them. a little
book on stomach diseases will be
mailed free by addressing F. \.

Sensational indeed was the scene
enacted in a downtown residence.
And sad, too, is the fact that once
happy home has now been broken
up. Returning unexpectedly, the hus-
band is said to have found his wife in
a compromising position. Natural
", there was a tumult and the man
who in most cases would have been
sent to the morgue succeeded in
making a hasty exit through one of
the windows, before the irate hus-
band could lay hands on him. The
scene which followed. need not be
described; a stormy scene, and the
woman ordered from the house
which had been her home so long.
She departed for Chicago, the hus-
band intending to break up house
keeping. The man accused by the
husband was n boarder at the house,
but he has made himself scarce, and
it is perhaps well for him.

MOLINE MENTION

President G.. y. Stephens, of the
Moline club, yesterday emphatically
set at rest the persistent report
that the Moline club proposes to dis
band because something in the ma
ture of rival has sprung up in the
equipment of the new club rooms for
the local lodge of Elks. NO such
talk is current among the members, y
said Mr.. Stephens, nor has such a
move been discussed. Moline is big
enough and broad enough to contain
two clubs and support two club
rooms, and especially where two
clubs differ in nature as much as Il
business mems club and that of Sc
cret order"

The purchase has a frontage on Third

to the Allen heirs, and negotiations
for the sale have been in the hands
of Martin & Reupke for some time,
and have just been closed. The pur-
chase price was S14,56O. The McClel-

will do with the property. If it

Yesterday was the first day of the

linger had a number of important
questions up before him. The most
important, perhaps, was the applica-
ton of the Allen estate, through its
attorneys. w. NJ. Chamberlin, w. T..
Dittoe and Hiram j.. Grover, of St.
Louis, for a transfer to the federal
court of the new case begun against
the estate for the purpose of col
lecting for the River road paving.
The court decided that as the de-
PENDANTS were residents of other
states, and in fact many of them
residents of other countries, he would
have to grant the request. So the
case goes to the federal court.
