SOUR STOMACH (Acid Dyspepsia)
Now Recognized as the Cause of Seri-
Gus Diseases.

Acid Dyspepsia, commonly called
heartburn or sour stomach, is a form
OF INDIGESTION resulting from fermenta-
ton of the food. The stomach being
too weak to promptly digest it, the food
remains until fermentation begins,
filling the stomach with gas, and a
bitter sour. burning taste in the mouth
is often present. This condition soon
becomes chronic and being an every
day occurrence is given but little at
tention. Because Dyspepsia is not i'm
mediately fatal, many people do moth
ing for the trouble.
1t is now well known among able
physicians that the whole constitution
is gradually undermined and weakened,
that the nerves and vital organs are
seriously affected by any form of dys-
pepsia. This is plain. as every organ,
every nerve in the body is nourished by.
the blood and the blood is replenished
from the food digested. If the food is
properly digested the blood is pure. the
nerves steady. but if supplied from Il
sour, fermenting. decaying mass the
blood is vitiated, poisoned and the re-
suit is shown in sleeplessness, lack of
energy, poor appetite. nervousness
Every trfe is magnfied and the dys-
peptic sees nothing but the dark side
Cf everything
Within recent period a remedy has
been discovered prepared solely to cure
dyspepsia and stomach troubles. 1t is
Known as Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets
and 1t is now becoming rapidly used
and prescribed as radical cure for
every form of dyspepsia.
1t is not claimed to cure anything
except dyspepsia and stomach weak
ness in it's various forms, but for this
it has been shown to be unequalled.
The eminent specialists, Reed and
OLeary, have recently stated that they
considered Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets
an unfailing specific for disorders of
the digestive organs, and the remark
able cures made in cases of long stand
ing dyspepsia proves that this remedy
has extraordinary merit
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets have been
placed before the public and are sold
| by druggists everywhere at 80 cents per
package, and while it promptly and
effectually restores vigorous diges-
ton. at the same time is perfectly
harmless and will not injure the most
delicate stomach, but on the contrary
by giving perfect digestion, strengthens
the stomach improves the appetite and
makes life worth living. S-10-12

Thomas B. Reed.

For one of the greatest Americans OF
our times,--more than that, for one OF
the greatest Americans of all time
the "Finis" was written and the book
Of life was closed at the hour of mid
night, Saturday. 1t was fitting that
Thomas 3. Reed should die in Wash
fngton, the scene of his life's great
work, and where he won a fame that
the bright light of coming years will
not dim. The news of his death, as it
spread over our country, yesterday, al
though not wholly unexpected and al
though lacking in tragic features, car
ried with it a shock to our people which
they have not felt since Mckinley was
struck down at Buffalo. To Maine the
blow comes as a great personal loss
to all our people. Here he was
born. reared and educated; here were
won his earlier triumphs; and though
for over a score of years his life ana
services belonged to the nation, and
OF late the metropolis has been the
scene of his labors, still Maine has
cherished him as her best beloved and
he has ever remained her loyal son.
In another column We publish the
story of his life and achievements.
That alone and unadorned is his most
eloquent eulogy and will remain his
most enduring monument. Those who
loved him will mourn; those who re-
yiled him as "cZar' and "tyrant' and
";,surper' will now admit his greatness
and give in lavish measure the praise
they gave grudgingly. if at all. while
he lived. There is no fear that history
will fail to give his memory the honor
due it. Just as he lowered head and
shoulders above those around him in &
crowd. SO he will be remembered as
towering intellectually. and in all the
qualities that make a great statesman
and parliamentary leader, among his
contemporaries.
In all his long and busy political life,
Thomas 3. Reed kept his hands clean.
No stain was on his public or private
life. No political enemy ever ventured
TO question his absolute honesty. His
rugged integrity knew no such thing
as deal" and he never allowed par
tisanship to rise above patriotism. So
lofty were his ideals of craftsmanship
and so far was he above everything
petty or underhand, that he lacked
the conciliatory and tactful ways of
the politician. He was independent,
fearless. uncOmprOmising, aggressive,
and earnest Though he was a match
less debatcr and giant in parlia-
mcntary battle. he loved the more
quiet ways of literature and philosophy
and was probably much happier in his
study than in the court room or the
halls of Congress. He hated sham and
hypocracy, and against them the keen
est shafts of his satire were sent.
And now he walks no more among
men. He will be missed and mourned
as would be few citizens who are in
private life. The country he served so
faithfully and to which he left the
deathless and inspiring memory of such
a life and such achievements as were
his, may well do honor to his name.

Reflections of a Bachelor.

The way to succeed is not to fail.
Some iren seem to forget that their

women do.
After a girl begins to know things she
ought not to she begins to want some

A woman can forgive the woman she

The Old Fashioned Fire.

To steam heat the cities aspire
As they shiver and shake in the cold;
But give me the old-fashiOned fire
The round rosy backlog of old.
The warmth and the light
OF its fame, leaping bright
The drowsy- heads huddled around it at
night.
In tho darkness the winter-wind signing
Made the flame take a ruddie,
The sparks up the broad chimney flying
Like witch-eyes that cleaned in the
snow,
Oh, the warmth and the light
OF those red flames so bright,
And the comfort and joy of the wild
winter night,
Far better that friendly old fire
Than buildings of Simmering steam,
With never flame to admire,
And never a beautiful dream!
Oh. the love and the light
Where those flames danced so bright,
And the old-fashioned joy of the old
fash ioned night

For many years catarrh was consid-
cred to be a local disease, and was
treated entirely by local remedies,
salves, ointments, powders, sprays and
inhalers, and nearly all of these gave
a temporary relief, but a genuine per
manent cure was very rare.
1t is true that the most annoying
symptoms, like stoppage of the nose
and throat trouble, are purely local,
but they are simple symptoms and the
real seat of disease is far removed.

The sensible and successful treat
