A GOOD DEAL OF NONSENSE
About "Blood Purifiers" and 1onlcs.


Every drop Of blood, every bone, nerve
and tissue in the body can be renewed IN
but one way, and that Ia, from whole
some food properly digested. There is
no other way, and the idea that med1-
cine in itself can purify the blood or sup
ply new tissues and strong nerves IS r1d1-
culous and on a par with the 1Ol-de-rol
that dyspepsia or indigestion Is a germ
disease or that other fallacy, that weak
stomach which refuses to digest food can
be made to do so by irritating and in
flaming the bowels by pills and cathartics.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets cure indiges-
ton, sour stomach, gas and bloating after
meals, because they furnish the digestive
principle which weak stomachs lack, and
unless the deficiency Of pepsin and d.
astase is supplied it Is useless to attempt
to cure stomach trouble by the use Of
"tonics," pills" and "cathartics" which
have absolutely no digestive power, and
their only effect is to give a. temporary
stimulation.
One grain Of. the active principle in
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets will digest
1000 grains Of meat, eggs and similar
foods, and experiments will show that
they will do this in a. glass bottle at
proper temperature. but Of course are
much more effective in the stomach.
There is probably no remedy SO uni
versally used as Stuart's Tablets because
it is not only the sick and ailing, but well
people who use them at every meal to In
cure perfect digestion and assimilation Of
the food. -, -
People who enjoy fair health take
stuart's Tablets as regularly as they take
their meals, because they want to keep
well, prevention is better than cure, and
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets do both; they
prevent indigestion and they remove 1t
where 1t exists. The regular use of one
81. two OF them after meals will demon
atrate their merit and efficiency better
than any other argument,

Chicago, Oct. 17.-walter Welln1an in
wilkesbare special to the Record-Herald,
says:
Joy reigned throughout the coal region
Yesterday. Bells were rung on the school-
houses and churches, locomotive engineers
footed their whistles. small boys paraded
with drums and improvised banners, and
the mine workers gathered in groups TO
discuss the situation and to congratulate
one another upon the prospects OF an early
return to work.
At first the miners were doubtful ana
suspicious. They feared the cap1tallst1c
managers were trying to play a trick upon
them But now this telling has given way
to one of confidence and exultatlon.
The Commission Is Satisfactory.
They are pleased with the composition Of
the commission. They have carefully an
alyzed it, and their knowledge OF the
views, history and tendencies OF the SIX
arbitrators Is surprisingly complete.
OF the six men they figure that two,
Mr. Clark and Bishop Spalding, have a
distinct leaning toward the. miners. only
one, Mr.. Parker, Of the geological survey
do they regard as being inclined the other
way, and their views as to him nave org
mated solely from the fact that he is the
editor Of a coal trade paper, which de"
rives most Of its income from the opera
tors and the manufacturers Of colliery ma
ohinery and supplies, surely not very
substantial ground upon which to Dase
an opinion.
The remaining names are regarded Dy
the miners as strictly neutral. Mr. wat
kins, who was put on ostensibly as the
representative OF the operators may turn
out to be one Of the best friends OF the
miners In his youth he worked IN a col
nery, and he has ever been known as
friend Of tina working people and to or
ganized labor< Though now r1ch' inter-
ested in coal mines and director OF the
Temple Iron and Coal company, which Il
the central organization Of the coal trust
no one denies that he Is man OF oroa<
views and warm syrnpathies.
As the miners scan tho list they sa!
they can see upon It the name or no NAL
who is sure to be unfriendly to them, ant
they believe that at least two names ar
distinctly friendly.
Operators Not So Well Pleased.
The men are cheered by the report
which como from New York to the effec
that the presidents Of the coal railway
are very much dissatisfied with the out

gan and President Roosevelt for gett1n
them into this dilemma They areao

Ne.o York. Sxss Special Servsos
Tannaqua, Pa, OCT. :17.-Leaders of the
United Mine Workers in the southern part
of the anthracite region are putting forth
every effort at their command to prevent
the convention on Monday from accepting
the proposition Of the presidents of the
coal companies and ordering the men to
return to work. Everything would indi-
cate that there is q movement on foot
to create division In the ranks and to
use force to prevent a resumption OF work
at the collieries: The men who nave been
responsible for the reign Of lawlessness
which has prevailed in the region since
the strike began are determined not to al
low union men to work alongside OF non
union men. They say that a general re-
sumption cannot take place until every
man who has worked during the strike
has been discharged and replaced by
members OF the union.
