"SCIENTIFIc" BEEF.
The Roast Beef of Old England Is
 Deterorating.

From the London Mail.
 England would not be England without it's famous roast beef. Patriotic Britons are still under the delusion that by pay ing the price they can obtain the genuine article "as good as ever It was, Sir"
 This is another of the pleasant fctions which the faithful journalist is obliged to shatter
 As a matter of fact the distinctive flavor which won the admiration of King James has been slowly lost owing to modern methods of fattening cattle. Tenderness and juicy quality undoubt- edly have been gained by modern breed CTS owing to their scientific feeding of oxen; but the original "beefy' flavor which took about three years to become perfect, is gradually being replaced by quite unpleasant favors
 For instance, and the British Farmers Association is the authority consulted by the writer. Devonshire beef has a dis tinctly ''turnippy'' taste, due to the roots and turnips upon which the beasts are fed.
 In spring beef this flavor is most notice able, for it is during the winter months. when pasturage is scarce, that the ani- mals have to be fed on roots. If for one m onth only just before slaughtering the cattle were fed on hay, this objection would be removed; but our cattle breed CTS are in such hurry to send the ani-

mals to the market that this month can not be spared when the demand for Eng fish beef is great and pressing.
 Oilcake is another artificial food that affects the flavor. The taste of the oil is most unpleasantly perceptible when the food is used to any great extent But 1t fattens very rapidly, so farmers use it. Six weeks only is necessary to get an OK into market condition on oil- cake
 What then, Is the finest beef for table |? The answer will come as a shock. It is, according to an expert, the American who succeeds again.
 American beef, bred from the finest English stock. hIs many advantages over the hom e-grown animals.
 The pasturage in America is ideal. Sun shine is abundant and sunshine has great effect in the way of improving the flavor of beef The most exposed DOT tions of the animal, such as that from which the sirloin is taken, are always the best.
 American beef comes over in chilled. not frozen, chambers. If the flee gets into the meat the flesh becomes taste less, but a cold chamber the tempera- ture of which does not fall below freez- ing point. arrests decomposition without spelling the flavor.

But the trouble is that while we eat enough and generally too much, the stom- ach frotn abuse and overwork, does not properly digest and assimilate 1t, which is the reason so many people remain thin and under weight; the digestive organs do not completely digest the flesh-forming beefsteak and eggs and similar wholesome e food.
 There are thousands of such who are really confirmed dyspeptics, although they may have no particular pain or in- convenience from their stomachs.
 If 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 digested, because these tablets contain the natural peptones and diastase which every weak stomach lacks, and by supplying this want the stomach is soon enabled to re- gain its natural tone and vigor
 Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets digest every form of f1esh-forming food, meat, eggs, bread and potatoes, and this Is the reason they so quickly build up strengthen and invigorate thin, dyspeptic men, women and children.
 Invalids and children. even the most delicate, use them with marked benefit as they contain no strong, irritating drugs, no cathartic nor any harmful in- gredient. a1.sF
 Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets Is the m ost successful and most widely known of any remedy for stomach troubles because 1t Is the most reasonable and scientific of modern medicines.
 Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets are sold by every druggist in the United States and Canada as well as in Great Britain, at 50 cents for complete treatment.
 Nothing further is required to cure any stomach trouble or to make thin, nervous, dyspeptic people strong, plump and well.

 "A undertakes too much. He cannot G make speciality of any one disease. So it is only natural that the family physi- clans treatment is not always thorough. He has no time to devote himself to the study of the diseases peculiar to women. He often does not tell the patient what is the cause of her headache, backache and the long list of ills peculiar to women. He calls it indigestion" kidney or liver trou ble or simply "female weakness. His treatment may help the trouble for while but it usually returns Thousands of wo- men have been treated for liver and kidney trouble when they are suffering with dis ordered menses. Under this treatment they suffer patiently for years. In the mean time becoming physical wrecks, they give up in discouragement. Then they hear the doctor suggestion of operation.

No woman has ever, to our knowledge, taken thls medicine and not been benefited by it. To cure Mrs. Blau who had suffered ten years. was an achievement.
