Furthermore, poor digestion makes

The most sensible thing to do for
heart trouble is TO insure the digestion
and assimilation of the food.
This can be done by the regular use
after meals of some safe, pleasant and
effective digestive PREPARATION, like
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets which may
be found at most drug stores and
which contain the necessary digestive
elements in a pleasant, convenient
form.
Thousands of people keep well and
vigorous by keeping their digestion
perfect by observing the rule of taking
one or two of these tablets after each
meal, or at least after each hearty
meal
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets contain
q. S. L. pepsin, diastase from malt
and other natural digestives which act
only on the food. digesting it perfectly
and preventing acidity, gases, and the
many diseased conditions which ac-

When Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are
used you may know you are not TAX

cine or powerful drug but simply the
natural digestive elements which every
weak stomach lacks.
So widely known and popular have
these tablets become that they are now
sold by every druggist in the United

PRICE or CONVICTs roo HIGH.

Gainesville Sun: w. N. Camp, one
of the largest miners of phosphate in
this state, stated yesterday that he
would not employ state convicts an
other year until he won his suit
against the state. He claims that the
price which is being charged by the
finn sub-letting Convicts is exorbitant
and that when the miner pays the
price of about 5000 for each one of them
he cannot afford to care for them as
he should. He has delivered all of
the convicts he was working and is
now. getting up Independent labor for
his mines. He hopes to win his suit
against the state and get the convicts
at the old figure.
