There are thousands of such who are

they may have no particular pain or
inconvenience from their stomachs
If such persons would lay their pref

tice of taking, after each meal one or
two of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets the
food would be quickly and thoroughly
digested, because these tablets contain
the natural peptones and diastase
which every weak stomach lacks, and
by supplying this want the stomach is
soon enabled to regain it's natural tone

Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets digest
every form of fiesh-forming food. meat

the reason they so quickly build up,

Invalids and children, even the most

There is danger that about every

recently. When his will was read IL
was discovered that he had left hand
some fortune TO George +. O'Neili. a

years ago Editor O'Neill called Mr..
Tyler Colonel" in his paper. and since
that time never referred TO him except
with the titular prefix. Soon the old

THE ALMIGHTY DOLLAR IN EVIL
DENCE.


Prince Henry is reported as saying:
Il don't care for your tall buildings:
want to see the people," And it is
probable that he has thought a dozen
times since landing in this country, st
don't care for your rich dinners and
the opera: 1 prefer a pretzel and a
mug of beer with a few congenial
friends. and 1 would rather hear some
of your plantation melodies and see q
cakewalk than to hear the great sing
ers in your grand opera house." The
reason he would prefer these things is
that he has plenty of pomp, cere-
mony, fashionable society dinners and
opera at home. He would like some
new experiences.
The effort seems to have been. since
his arrival. to impress him with our
wealth and greatness. 1t is said that
the dinner given in his honor by the
captains of industry cost a fabulous
sum. Even the walters were provided
with new suits OF costly clothes for
the occasion. and the earth was ran
sacked for things that were to be OBJ
tanned only at an immense expense.
1t would be interesting to know what
the bill for decorating the Metropolitan
Opera House was for the one perform
ance which the Prince attended. There
was a profusion of flowers of the cost
liest kind. and the royal box was fitted
up with tapestries. embroideries and
other works of art that were worth
more than their weight in gold.
No doubt the Prince was impressed,
but was ne better pleased than If the
arrangement for his entertainment had
to be a very democratic sort of prince
one who would like to get nearer the
people than he is permitted to get.
Perhaps he thought when he arrived in
the great republic he would be treated
in a democratic fashion. Instead of
that. either because of the pride we
feel in our wealth. a desire TO show
what the almighty dollar can do, or
because we feel that a prince must
not be treated as an ordinary mortal,
we have insisted upon smothering
him with magnificence. And it looks
as If it were the purpose of Chicago
to follow the example of New York.
Cannot some one of the places he is
to visit get up a programme that will
bring the Prince in closer touch with
the people-that will let him see the
things he doesn't see at home, and
which he would rppaannha, !onuoof
when he gets back to his native land !?

IN THE NATTER OF COURTESY.

To paraphraSe a very famous author,
the quality of courtesy is not strained.
1T. droppeth as the gentle rain from
heaven" upon great many people who
know how to appreciate it, and possi-
bly, more who do not. 1t is a most
commendable attribute of character,
and its cultivation cannot be urged
too strongly. Sometimes, indeed, it is
a valuable asset in ones business, as
is from time to time to be noted in the
dispatches reporting the proceedings of
the United States Senate. But cour-
tesy does not always avail to make
things easier for the person who prac-
tices it. Evidences of this may be seen
on the street cars when the travel is
heavy. And an instance in illustration
of the same fact has recently come to
light in New York, where a polite
burglar" has been charming victims
with his delightful manners while
robbing them of their goods. This bur-
glar was something of modern Ches-
terfield, paying his compliments with
the easy grace and oily language that
room, and not proceeding from behind
a mask in ones sleeping room during
the dead hours of the night.
But while the polite burglar" was
the personification of courtesy itself
on his marauding trips, complimenting
mothers on the beauty and precocity
of their children and begging pardon
for disturbing the slumbers of his
victims, his polished manners have not
served to withhold the rough hand of
the law. He has been apprehended,
and will be sent to the penitentiary
just the same as if he had burgled and
robbed with the conventional profane
and mandatory remarks instead of fine
phrases. This shows that courtesy
cannot always be turned to account.
Still there are times when courtesy
is worth money, without the fact be-
ing suspected by the person most in
terested. A case in point is reported
from Bloomington. ILL.,, town chiefly
known because Adlai Stevenson lives
there. A millionaire of the name Of
Tyler died in Bloomington the other
dav. When his will was read ii was
discovered that he had left 1000 to a
railroad conductor of the name of Ma
son 'in recognition of his courteous
treatment" of the testator while trav-
cling with him. Conductor Mason had
probably answered the old millionaire's
questions with patience and performed
other little acts of kindness which
come in a conductors way, and the
grateful old passenger did not forget
him. This incident should impress it.
self upon the minds of conductors
wherever they are disseminated, and
cause them to take a new hold upon
courtesy. So far as they know almost
any traveller may be a millionaire eager
to reward true courtesy in his will.

THE COOKBOOK.

Always salt any article where lard
is used instead of butter.
When you are softening butter to
make cake, never allow it to melt. If
you do. the cake will be heavy.
Always keep olive oil in the refriger-
ator and tightly corked. Never put
more oil in the table cruet than two
days supply. 1t will grow rancid.
For maitre d'hotcl sauce mix two
tablespOonfuls 1T hHtter, one of
chopped parsle. one of lemon juice
and pinch of salt. Work these in
gradients together thoroughly and
serve with fish or steak.
Crusts and crumbs of bread left over
from the table should be dried, put
aside for rolling and dipping or to be
used in scalloped dishes or mixed with
Il few sliced apples and baked and
served as a dinner dessert.
