CATARRH OF THE STOMACH.
A Pleasant, Simple, but Safe and Effect
ual Cure for 1t.

A Pleasant, Simple, but Safe and Effect
| ual Cure for 1t.
Catarrh of the stomach has long been
| considered the next thing to incurable
| The usual symptoms are a full or bloat-
| ing sensation after eating, accompanied
| sometimes with sour or watery risings,
formation of gases. causing pressure
on the heart and lungs and difficult
breathing, headaches, tickle appetite,
nervousness and a general played out,
languid feeling.
There is often a foul taste in the
mouth coated tongue and il the interior
of the stomach could be seen it would
show a Shiny, infammed condition
The cure for this common and obsti-
nate trouble is found in a treatment
which causes .he food to be readily,
thoroughly digested before it has time
to ferment and irrtate the delicate mu
cous surfaces of the stomach To secure
a prompt and healthy digestion is the
one necessary thing to do and when nor
NAL digestion is secured the catarrhal
condition will have disappeared.
According to DIR. Harlanson the safest
and best treatment is to use after each
meal a tablet composed of Diastase,
Aseptc Pepsin, a little Nux Golden
Seal and fruit acids These tablets can
now he found at all drug stores under
the name of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets
and not being a patent medicine can be
used with perfect safety and assurance
that healthy appetite and thorough
digestion will follow their regular use
after meals.
Mr. r. S. Workman, Chicago, HIS,
writes: "Catarrh is local condi-
ton resulting from a neglected cold in
the head, whereby the lining membrane
of the nose becomes inflamed and the
poisonous discharge therefrom passing
backward into the throat reaches the
stomach this producing catarrh of the
stomach. Medical authorities prescribed
for me for three years for catarrh of
stomach without cure, but today | am
the happiest of men. After using only one
box of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets, l can
not find appropriate words to express
my good feeling. | have found flesh,
appetite and sound rest from their
.use.'
Stuart's DYSPEPSIA Tablets is the safest
preparation as we'll as the simplest and
most convenient remedy for any form OF
Indigestion, Catarrh of stomach bilious
ness, sour stomach, heart burn and

When Tom Dixons novel Leopard s
Spots" was first published, certain crit
les in North Carolina were so severe in
their criticism as to lead those who did
not read the story in installments to
think is was a. failure This paper pub
lished the story as serial. called at
tcntion to it's virility and to its graphic
portrayal of the horrors of Reconstruc-
tion in North Carolina, and declared
that it would do as much if widely cir
culated to justify the South as Uncle
Toms Cabin" did to misreDresent its
true condition The book has more than
justified the comment. People who were
mislead by partisan or crude criticism
have read the book and now feel proud

1875 And a Dead Horse

Justice Barbee yesterday rendered a
decision in a rather interesting case
arising out of a horse. 1t seems that
Mr. John e. Williams sold Mr.. r. M.
Taylor a horse, which died soon after
the trade was concluded. Mr.. Taylor
claimed tina the horses death was
caused by injuries received while in Will
iiams possession, and which were known
by Williams at the time of the trade.
The magistrate ruled that, as the value
of the horse was put al SIS, Williams
should pay to Taylor S25, that Taylor
should return Williams horse to him,
and that the costs OF the case should be
equally divided between the two parties
This seemed to be entirely satisfactory.
