Robertson All Right,

Sam Robertson, IN the Sixth
District, has heard OF a nice young
man who yearns for his seat in
Congress, but The aforesaid young
man will continue to yearn for
some time before he succeeds IN
breaking the hold the distinguished
senior member of the Louisiana
delegation has upon the people of
the Sixth District. The long i'll
ness and ultimate death, a few
days ago, of his aged mother, have
made canvass of his district i'm
possible on the part of Colonel
Robertson; but the people will
rally to his support IN November,
and re- elect him by an overwhelln-
ing majority.-Daily States.

IS A SERIOUS MATTER.
The Most Serious and Fatal Diseases
Arise from Indigestion.

Chronic Indigestion or dyspepsia,
while a very common trouble, has for
some time been looked upon by able
physicians as a serious thing, and that
no time should be lost in treating it
properly at the start, because recent
researches have shown that the most
serious fatal and incurable diseases
have their origin in simple dyspepsia
or indigestion.
Diabetes is simply one form of indi-
gestion, the sugar and starchy food
not being assimilated by the digestive
organs. In Bright's disease the albu-
men is not properly assimilated.
While consumption and dyspepsia
are twin diseases, and 1t is beyond
question that dyspepsia makes a fer
tile soil for the seeds of consumption.
But the trouble has been to find rem
edy that could be depended upon to
cure dyspepsia, as it is VIGOROUSLY
obstinate and difficult to cure.
This has been the question which has
puzzled physicians and dyspeptics
alike, until the question was solved
three years ago by the appearance Of a
new discovery in the medical world
known as Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets,
which it was claimed was a certain,
reliable cure for every form Of stom-
ach trouble.
Physicians, however, would not ac-
cept such statements without first Civ
ing the new remedy many tests and
carefully observing results.
Fer three years the remedy has been
thoroughly tested in every section of
the country and with surprising and
satisfactory results.
Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets can be
honestly claimed to be a specific, a
radical lasting cure for Indigestion in
the various forms OF acid dyspepsia or
sour stomach, gas or wind on stomach,
too much bile, undue fullness Of pres
sure after eating and similar symp-
toms resulting from disordered diges-
zion.
stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets we're not
placed before the public until this
three-years' trial left no doubt as to
their value and they have recently been
placed in the trade and can be found
on sale at all druggists at the nomi-
nal price Of so cents per package.
No extrayagant claims are made for
the remedy, II will not cure rheuma-
tiHn, pneumonia, typhoid fever nor
anything but just what II IN claimed
70 cure and that ~ every form OF
stomach trouble. No dieting n neces-
eary, good wholesome food and plenty
~ IL and you may rest assured that
Rtuarfis Dyspepsia Tablets VIII digest

pleasure 10 recommend Il % dyepeps
tics because Il gives such universal
satisfaction.
