HOW TO DRINK MILK.
why it Disagree. with Some People.

When one needs a reviving stimulant
after exhaustion nothing can rival the
effects of hot milk slipped slowly.
Some people say they cannot digest
milk. and these are the people who
drink it down quickly so that the di-
gestive acids, in playing around it,
form large curds which give trouble
before they can be absorbed.
The right way is TO sip the milk in
small amounts. so that each mouthful,
as it descends into the stomach, is
surrounded by the gastric fluid, and
when the whole glassful is down the
effect is that of a spOngy mass of
curds. in and out of which the keen
gastric juices course, speedily doing
their work of turning the curd into
peptones that the tissues can take up.
To make sure of complete digestion
take one or two of Stuarts Dyspepsia
Tablets afterwards. as the pepsin and
diastase they contain increase the guam
tity and efficiency of the gastric juices
and supply the natural digestive fer
ments which all weak stomachs lack.
Miss Anna Folger, a professional
nurse, speaking of the value of Stuart's
Tablets in convalescence says: I'm
adult patients recovering from severe
illness and especially in children where
milk disagrees, one or two tablets ov-
ercome any difficulty and seem to
strengthen the stomach in a remarka-
bly, short time. 1 myself have used
them daily for years. when my own
digestion has suffered from the irregu-
larities and loss of sleep consequent
upon my occupation"
Not only children and invalids. but
professional people and others whose
meals are necessarily hurried or irregu-
lar will find Stuart's Dyspepsia Tab
let's of the greatest value in keeping up
the tone and digestive vigor of the
stomach
They contain the active digestive fer
ments the lack of which is really the
only cause of indigestion and stomach
troubles, and the regular daily use of
them after meals will probably cure
any case of stomach trouble except
such as arises from cancer or ulcera-
ton.
Many druggists have said that they
sell more Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets
than all other stomach remedies COM
bined.

THE VAULE of CHARCOAL
Few People Know How Useful 1t is
In Preserving Health and Beauty.

Nearly everybody knows that char
coal is the safest and most efficient
disinfectant and purifier in nature. but
few realize its value when taken into
the human system for the same cleans
ing purpose.
Charcoal is 2 remedy that the more
you take of 1t the better; it is not a
drug at all, but simply absorbs the
gases and impurities always present
in the stomach and intestines and
carries them out of the system
Charcoal sweetens the breath after
smoking, drinking or after eating on
ions and other odorous vegetables
Charcoal effectually clears and i'm
proves the complexion, it whitens the
teeth and further acts as natural
and eminently safe cathartic.
1t absorbs the injurious gases which
collect in the stomach and bowels: IL
disinfects the mouth and throat from
the poison of catarrh.
All druggists sell charcoal in one
form or another. but probably the best
charcoal and the most for the money
is in Stuart's Absorbent Lozen1es:
they are composed of the finest pow
dered Willow charcoal, and other

Althea was more or less on deck While
the Senator spent most of his time in
his big palace" Hotel in San Francis
co, he maintained in princely style his
suburban place, Belmont" which had
been the home of his friend, Ralston,
who suicided in the fish pond on the
estate. 1t is a wide depression, but
may not be amiss to mention here, that
on the day when poor Ralston's body
was found, a large gray owl took up
his abode in one of the Belmont out
buildings and refused to be evicted.
From the worldly minded Senator down
to the lowest servant on the place, the
superstition somehow gained ground
that there was some connection be-
tween the mysterious bird and the soul
of the suicide; and, needless to add,
the owl was never molested. Years
later it disappeared as strangely as it
came. 1t was Senator Sharon's GUS
tom to take distinguished guests from
his Palace Hotel to Belmont to spend
Sundays. In this way Lord Heskith
and his party, on a yachting tour to
round off the young Lords education,
came to meet Flora Sharon, a beauti-
full but timid little girl. just home from

the Mother Church.
Manila, Jan. 3.-Solicitor General
Areneta, in a written opinion, sustains
Gov. Taft's contention that he is not
in a position to intervene regarding the
possession of Roman Catholic property
seized by Independent Catholics, and
that the courts must settle the ques-
ton.
The adherents of the independent
Catholic church have seized several
churches and converts and in some
instances native parish priests have
seeded, continuing in possession of the
churches, and have defed the new
pastors appointed by the Roman
Catholic authorities. Archbishop
Guidi, the papal delegate, has
formally requested Gov. Taft to dis
possess the independent Catholics and
restore the Roman Catholics, and to
use the constabulary in so doing, If
necessary, but the Governor has de-
clined to do so, holding that such ac-
ton is beyond the powers of the ex-
ecutive. IIe also advised an appeal to
the courts and cabled the facts to Sec
rotary Root, who sustained him.
Attorney General Wiley concurs in
Solicitor General Araneta's opinion,
which Gov. Taft will forward to Arch
bishop Guidi. 1t is expected that the
latter will institute proceedings to
GUST the independent Catholics, who
claim that much of the property be-
longs to the people. 1t is not thought
that the incident will affect the friar
lands negotiations proceeding between
Gov. Taft and Archbishop Guidi.

WITH MUSICIANS AND
MUSICAL PEOPLE.

The second artist concert of the Mu-
sic Club this season will take place
at the Lawton Memorial, Thursday
evening, Jan. %, when Nine. Lillian
Blauvelt will be presented. The club
could not have made better selection,
as Nine. Blauvclt is recognized as the
foremost concert singer in America to-
day. Following out the policy of pre-
senting only the best artists availa-
BILE, the management of the club have
not depended upon such artists only
as were on tours, but have selected
the ones they wished, and have made
special contracts with them. Nine.
Blauvelt will make the trip South to
sing only in Savannah In her pro-
gramme she will give several num-
hers from the grand operas. After the
tremendous success that the club made
with the Campanari recital in Novem-
Der it is safe to predict that not a
member of the club will be absent on
this occasion, and that there will not
be an unoccupied seat in the hall.
Another singer of great reputation
who will be here this month is Mile.
Zelie de Lussan. Mile. de Lussan will
sing at the theater on the 14th, max
ing her first appearance in Savannah.
She has a mezzo soprano voice of rare
beauty, and is one of the foremost
singers in America this season. In no
one season before in the history of
Savannah have four such celebrated
singers appeared here as Campanari,
DIPPED, Blauvelt and de Lussan.
Miss Saidee King who has recently
returned from New York. where she
has been studying under Emil Sanger,
will sing at the Music Club on next
Thursday night. This will be Miss
Kings first public appearance since
her return to the city.
The Southern tour of Andreas Dip
pei has come to an abrupt ending. The
attendance upon his recitals was so
poor that he abandoned it the week
before Christmas. The people through
out the South are always bemoaning
the fact that they have so few OPP
portunities of hearing the best music
given by the best artists, and vet
when an opportunity is presented they
fail to take advantage of it. The con-
sequence is there is nothing to en-
courage the great artists to come
South, and everything to discourage
their managers from sending them.
Mrs. J. P. Wickenberg has again
made her home in Savannah and will
commence her duties this morning as
soprano in the Independent Presbyte-
rian Church. Mrs. Wickenberg is one
of the most popular singers who has
ever been in Savannah. and upon her
return to her old home she is well
coined on all sides.
