STRANGER THAN FICTION. A Remedy Which Has Revolutionized the Treatment of Stomach Troubles.

The remedy is not heralded as a won derful discovery nor yet a secret patent medicine, neither Is it claimed to cure anything except dyspepsia. indigestion and stomach troubles with which nine out of ten suffer. st
 The remedy is in the form of pleasant tasting tablets or lozonges, containing vegetable and fruit essences. pure aseptic pepsin igovernment test) golden seal and dastase. The tablets are sold by druggists under the name of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets. Many interesting ex- periments to test the digestive power of Stuart's tablets show that one grain of the active principle contained in them is sufficient to thoroughly digest 5000 grains of raw meat, eggs and other wholesome food.
 Stuarts Tablets do not act upon the bowels like after dinner pills and cheap cathartics, which simply irritate and in- flame the intestines without having any effect whatever in digesting food or cur ing indigestion
 If the stoma :h can be rested and as- sisted in the work of digestion it will very soon recover It's normal vigor, as no organ is so much abused and over worked as the stomach.
 This Is the secret if there Is any secret. of the remarkable success of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets, a remedy practically unknown a few years ago and now the most widely known of any treatment for st stomach weakness.
 The success has been secured entirely upon it's merits as digestive pure and simple because there can be no stomach trouble if the food Is promptly digested.
 Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets act entirely on the food eaten, digesting 1t complete ly, so that it can be assimilated into blood, nerve and tissue. They cure dys- pepsia. water brash, sour stomach, gas off Ia furnish the digestive power which weak stomachs lack and unless that lack is supplied it is useless to attempt to cure by the use of "tonics," pills and ca thartics which have absolutely no di- gestive power.
 Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets can be found at all drug stores and the regular use of one or two of them after meals will demonstrate their merit better than any other argument.

Odd Place for a SERPENT.

In Alsace recently a four-year-old
child, the daughter of workingman,
became very i'll one day, but speedily
recovered, and for some days after
ward dismayed her parents by eating
a good deal more than a child of that
age is wont to eat. Instead, however,
of growing fatter, the girl grew thin
ner, and doctors who were summoned
to attend her were unable to explain
why the food did her no good. Finally
the riddle was solved, for a serpent
about 20 inches in length issued one
morning from the child's mouth. The
serpent was killed and sent to the Uni
versity Of Strasburg, and since then
the little one has enjoyed excellent,
health. 1t is supposed that the child
swallowed the serpent while drinking
some impure water.

girl in the jewelry store Of the Globe
association at Clay ton, n. j., was alone
the other morning when we'll
dressed, please nt-yoiced young man
came in and asked to be shown dia-
mond rings. Miss Fisher brought out
a tray full of jewels, and the stranger
examined them critically, getting the
price. of each. Finally he said none of
them suited him, and Miss Fisler
turned to get others. When she again
turned to her prospective customer
she saw that one of the rings, valued
at $3.50, had been distracted from the
first tray. She proceeded to show the
fresh supply of goods, meanwhile
keeping sharp eye on the stranger.
"a ring is missing, and you have i'll"
suddenly exclaimed the salesgirl, look
ing the stranger squarely in the eye
The young man finched, but denied
vehemently that he had the missing
jewel. Miss Fisher was sure she was
right, however, and, coming from be-
hind the counter, she insisted upon
searching the man. He submitted to
the search, but it failed to reveal the.
ring. The girl asked the man for his
name, and he said he was James Smith,
of Melville; that he was a member of
the Methodist Protestant church
there, and would not be guilty of theft.
The stranger was permitted to leave
the store, but Miss FISHER, still con-
WINGED that he had the ring, followed
Tim to the street and compelled him
to return with her to. the store. Then
she closed and locked the door. Con-
fronting the man, she said. with the
air of one who knew just what to ex-
pect: ...'
"You have the ring. I will give you
just five minutes to give it up before I
will call an officer and have you ar
rested"
The man fdgeted on his feet for
minute. and again denied the theft,
bit finally produced the jewel. He
was then allowed to depart. Miss
FISHER has good description of him.
and he may be arrested.

only think there is.''
But the healer, ignoring the remark,
sat down in the chair and WINGED and
moaned, "even as you and l." There
was a good deal the matter, so that
before her series of appointments was
over bill of $50 had mounted UP
against her. At the first of the month
the dentist sent around his bill.
But he was not sharp man in some
ways. He had told her, while operat-
ing, that he was troubled with rheu-
matism, and in day or two he re-
ceived in reply to the bill little note.
my dear DOCTOR it read, II have
been giving you series of absent
treatments foryour so-called rheuma-
tism, and find that our two bills just
balance"
Then the doctor grew wise and let
the matter drop. But, says the New
York Tribune, he does not operate on
Christian Scientists any more.

ARMY TO USE NEW BALLOON.
specially Constructed Afrship to BE
Feature Of the Coming
,Maneuvers.

The army will make use of a spe-
cially constructed balloon, during the
coming maneuvers.+.@4 IT, was found
that the two monster balloons now
in the possession of the signal corps
were unwieldly, and required vast
amount of hydrogen for imitation:
1t was found, too, that the cost of
preparation ard the transportation
of the mechanism would amount to
as much as the construction of a
smaller balloon. 1t was therefore
decided to make balloon capable of
supporting two men which would be
sufficient for use in the coming
maneuvers. This balloon was tested
near Utica, N. Y, recently by being
kept in the air throughout one night.
1t showed no signs of leakage and it
was therefore decided to accept it.
Since then it has been kept at Fort
Myer, near Washington, and has been
twice :ested practically. The signal
corps has prepared an elaborate
scheme for detecting the approach
of the "enemy.'' Much of the ap-
paratus employed for this purpose
will now be tried for the first time
under conditions approaching those
of actual warfare.
