the reason so many people remain thin and

completely digest the fesh-forming beef
steak and riggs and similar wholesome food
There are thousands of such who are
really confirmed dyspeptics, although they
may have no particular pain or incon-
venience from their stomachs.
II such persons would lay their preju-
dices aside and make a regular practice OF
taking, after each meal, one or two OF
stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets the food would
be quickly and thoroughly dlgested. be-
cause these tablets contain the natural pep
tones and disstase which every weak stom-
ach lacks. and by supplying this want the
stomach is soon enabled to regain its nat
ural tone and vigor.
stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets digest every
form Of hesh-forming food. meat. eggs, bread
and potatoes, and this is the reason they
so quickly build up, strengthen and In
vigorate thin. dyspeptic men. women and
children.
Invalids and children, even the most deli
cate, use them with marked benefit, as they
contain no strong, Irritating drugs, no ca
thartic nor any harmful ingredient.
stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets is the most
successful and most widely known of any

LARNED WINS.
Defends The Tennis Champions
ship Against R.F. Doherty.
Play Was Very Fast and Americans
Better Endurance Won.
Larned Entitled to Honor of Being
Worlds Best Player.

Newport, r. l., Aug. 21--For the
third time in eight. years English as
pirations for the highest tennis honors
in singles have been dashed when they
seemed almost within reach of the per-
sistent foreigners, for today, VIM. A.
Larned of Summit. N. j.. successfully
defended his title as champion by de-
feating Reginald f. Doherty OF Eng
land three sets to one.
The scores were 4-6, 6-2, Sd, So.
1t was grand game on both sides,
but it sapped the vitality of each player
until it became a question of endur-
ance. and the American proved to be
in better condition.
At the end, Doherty, unused to not
sun. almost collapsed. 1t was general
ly acknowledged that had the day been
cool like those of last week, the battie
would have been fought longer. harder
and perhaps with different result
Larned, however. played the game
of his life, resourceful strong and de-
liherate. and he must be accorded not
only highest tennis honors in his own
country, but in the world, fer Doherty
is undoubtedly the strongest payer
that ever came to America.
