Reports When His Removal Is Asked
Special to Times-Republican.

Special to Times Republican.
Washington, Ia, Sept 22.-The find
ing of $4,000 or Whereabouts, in a tin
pail has caused an interesting case to
come up in district court here. The cir
cumstances are about as follows: About
two years ago j. A. Mcintyre, of
Brighton, died. His son-in-law, John
r. Snyder, was appointed administra-
tor. He made q partial report Of 5000
of the estate.
When the case came up for hearing
Saturday a motion was made to remove
him as administrator. A motion was
also made to have his wife removed as
guardian Of her half-brother, VIM. n.
Mcintyre. At this juncture Of the case
the administrator made report Of S.,
900 which he claims to have found In
"a tin pail in a closet. The money he
had deposited in Des Moines bank
for the purpose his attorneys claim, to
escape the tax ferrets.
4 JOS. Kendall, of Fairfield, an uncle
OF William Mcintyre, who is said to be
feeble minded. and brother-in-law
of the deceased, has employed Attor-
ney Raney, of Fairfield. and County At
torney Bailey to investigate matters.
They hold that j. A. Mcintyre was at
one time worth upwards of $4,000 and
that there are grounds for believing
that part of the estate has been kept
back and that the administrator should
be removed. Judge Clements, after the
ment. Court adjourned until next Fri
day.

THE ROOT OF THE MATTER.
He Cured Himself Of Serious Stomach
Trouble by Getting down to First

Trouble by Getting down to First
Principles.
A man of large affairs in one of our
prominent eastern cities by too close
attention to business. too little exercise
and too many club tdinners finally be-
gan to pay natures tax. levied in the
form of chronic stomach trouble; the
failure of his digestion brought about
nervous irritability, making it impossl-
bic to apply himself to his daily bust
ness and finally deranging the kidneys

In his own words he says: Il con-
suited one physician after another and
each one seemed to understand my
case, but all the same they each failed
10 bring about the return of my former
digestion, appetite and vigor. For two
years I went from pillar to post. from
one sanitarium to another. gave up
smoking, I quit coffee and even re-
nounced my daily glass or two of beer,
but without any marked Improvement.
..Friends had often advised me to try
q well-known proprietary medicine.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets, and had
often perused the newspaper advertise
ments of the remedy, but never TOOK
any stock In advertised medicines nor
could believe 50-cent patent medlclhe
would touch my case.
ITO make long story short, finally
bought couple Of packages at the
nearest drug store and took two or
three tablets after each meal and occa-
sionally tablet between meals, when
felt any feeling Of nausea or discomfort.
ssT was surprised at the end Of the
Arst week to note a marked improve
ulent In my appetite and general health
and before the two packages We're gone
was certain that Stuarts Dyspepsia
Tablets were going to cure completely,
and they did not disappoint me. can
cat ana sleep and enjoy my coffee and
cigar and no one would suppose had
ever known the horrors of dyspepsia.
8 Out OF friendly curiosity ! wrote to
the proprietors of the remedy asking
Tor information as to what the tablets
contained and they replied that the
principal ingredients were aseptic pep
ain government test), malt diastase
md other natural digestives, which di-
gest food regardless Of the condition of
the stomach"
Is The root of the matter is this, the df-
Restive elements contained in Stuarts
Dyspepsia Tablets will digest the food,
give the oyerworked stomach chance
to recuperate and the nerves and
whole system receive the nour-l
ashment which can only come
from food; stimulants and nerve
tonics never give real strength: they
give fictitious strength. invariably
Followed by reaction. Every drop of
blood. every nerve and tissue is manu-
factured from our daily food. and II
you can insure Its prompt action and
complete digestion by the regular use"
Of so good and wholesome q remedy as
iEtuart's Dyspepsia Tablets. you will
have no need Of nerve tonics and SAM
tariums.
Altho Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets
have been in the market only a few
years. yet probably every druggist in
the United States, Canada and Great
Britain now sells them and considers
them the most popular and successful
OF any preparation for stomach trouble.
