The worst Form.

Mutitudes are singing the praises
of Kodol, the new discovery which is
making so many sick people well and
weak people strong by digesting what
they eat, by cleansing and sweeten-
ing the stomach and by transform
ing their food into the kind of pure,
rich, red blood that makes you feel
good all over. Mrs. Cranfill, of Troy,
/. r., writes: "For a number of years
was troubled with indigestion and
dyspepsia which grew into the worst
form. Finally l was induced to use
Kodol, and after using four bottles
am entirely cured. 1 heartily rec
ommend Kodo1 to all sufferers from
indigestion and dyspepsia" Take
dose after meals. 1t digests what you
eat. All druggists.

TWO BIG NEW GENERATORS
PUT IN AT PEOPLES PLANT

The Peoples Power company yester-
day made notable improvement in
the facilities employed at its plant
for providing electric power and IL
luminations. Two big new alternating
generators of the most modern de-
sign were substituted for two that
have been in use for some years, the
change being part of the general
system of improvement that the com
pany is inaugurating. As the work
required considerable time it was
necessary TO do it Sunday, when the
least Inconvenience would result. AS
II was, a Commute shutoff of the
lights last evening was unavoidable,
and the company got along pretty
web at that, all things considered.
AS Il result of the putting in of the
heavier generators all motors used
for fan and dental purposes will have
to be rewound, and those having small
motors for such appliances should
not undertake to use them until the
company can get them and put them
in shape.

SICKLY DEFENSE IS MADE
OF ACCIDENTAL CANDIDATE

The Union has been driven at last
to an attempted defense of the acct
dental shrievalty candidate, w. &.
Heider, whom it assumes is deserving
of loyal support" In proof of this
it affirms that his nomination came
to him in the nature of an advance
ment-as a reward of merit at the
hands of his sponsor, Sheriff Cralle.
In other words, according to the
Unions idea, Il man must come
through the sheriff's Office and have
the appreciation of the sheriff in or
der to strengthen his claim upon his
party. Under this ruling how about
those who may not have been favored
with appointment by the sheriff, or
how, in fact, about those other depu-
ties who think they have just as good
n right to aspire as the particular
one to whom the sheriff has been so
increasingly devoted throughout the
four years of his term?
The Union. it is apparent. is quite in
accord with the ring rule idea just
now prevailing in the sheriff's office
of rotation in office. No outsider
need apply. and no insider need hope
unless the sheriff be with him.
What a pretty state of affairs, to be
sure. if the people were TO indorse it
at the polls instead of choosing one
of their number outside the ring.

BRAIN FOOD

Is OF Little Benefit Unless 1t is Digested
Nearly everyone will admit that as
nation we eat too much meat and
too little of vegetables and the grains.
For business men. office men and
clerks. and, in fact, everyone engaged
in sedentary or indoor occupations.
grains. milk and vegetables are much
more healthful.
Only men engaged in severe outdoor
manual labor can live ON heavy meat
diet and continue in health.
AS a general rule. meat once a day
is sufficient for all classes of men.
women and children. and grains.
fruit and vegetables should consti-
tute the bulk of food eaten.
But many of the most nutritious
foods are difficult of digestion and it
is of no use to advise brain workers
to eat largely of grains and vegeta-
bles where the digestion is too weak
to assimilate them properly.
1t is always best TO get the best re-
suits from our food, that some sim
pie and harmless digestive should he
taken after meals to assist the relax
ed digestive organs, and several years
experience have proven Stuart's Dys-
pepsia Tablets to he very safe
pleasant and effective digestive and
remedy which may be taken daily
with the best results.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets can
hardly be called patent medicine.
as they do not act on the bowels nor
any particular organ. but only on the
food eaten. They supply what weak
stomachs lack, pepsin diastase. and
by stimulating the gastric glands in
crease the natural secretion of hydro
chloric acid.
People who make n daily practice
of taking one or two of Stuart's Dys-
pepsia Tablets after each meal are
sure to have perfect digestion, which
means perfect health.
There is no danger of forming an
injurious habit, as the tablets contain
absolutely nothing but natural diges-
tives; cocaine, morphine and similar
drugs have no place in a stomach
medicine, and Stuart's Dyspepsia
Tablets are certainly the best known
and most popular of all stomach rem
edies.
Ask your druggist for so cent
package of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tab
lets, and after a weeks use note the
improvement in health, appetite and
nervous energy.

THAT CHAPTER.

A chapter on SCOTS Emul-
sion often holds a prominent
position in the histories of
weak children.
The gist of that chapter
usually reads like this" child
weak, pale, thin, no appetite,
irctful, weakness left over from
grippe or other disease. Be-
gan small doses SCOTS Emul-
sion three times a day after
meals. No apparent change
first week. Then appetite
improved, then strength in
creased, then child more lively,
slept better, a decided gain in
weight, better color in the face"
And so it goes till the child
is reported we'll and strong.
Sounds simple enough and
it is simple-Scott's Emulsion
is Just what the weak child
needs.
