THE FEAR OF HUMBU0
PREVENTS MANY PEOPLE FROM TRYING A
GOOD MEDICINE.

Stomach troubles common and In most
cases SO obstinate to cure that people apt to
look with suspicion any remedy claiming to BE-
a radical, permanent cure for dyspepsia and ind-
gestion. Many such pride themselves their
acuteness in being humbugged, especially in
medicines.
This fear Of being humbugged can be carried too
far. far, in fact, that many people suffer for
yeats with weak digestion rather than risk little
time and money In faithfully testing the claims
made of a preparation reliable and universally
used as Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets.
Now Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are vastly diff

prietary medicines for the that they

Cats and Diphtheria,

To the Editor of The Evening Star:
In reference to the treatment of stray
cats, which one correspondent wants I'M
pounded like stray dogs and another wants
treated better according to the correspond
ent's ideal, let me contribute two short and
impressive chapters. Several years ago my
business required me to leave home very
early, and one cold and stormy morning
when my wife saw me to the door We were
attracted by the pitiful cry OF a kitten. AL
though we had never harbored a cat on ac-
count Of the weather conditions, We took II
in, but in few days, because OF con-
tinuous cough and attempts at clawing its
windpipe, We took the alarm and got rid
Of it, Within two weeks we had a child
down with diphtheria, and short time
after another child and the hired help. AS
soon as the doctor said diphtherta 1 told
him my suspicion to the cause, and he
eagerly exclaimed: Where is that cat?
Find 1t IL YOU can 1 tried to do so, but
couldn't, but the connection between the
distressing throat disease Of the cat and
that Of the children is not far to seek. For
tunately the quarantine was the worst we
suffered from. Anu-toxin Ito which I pin
my faith from Its quick action in these
cases. did the rest.
A short time after. telling a friend what
I felt to be the cause, the tears commenced
to well up into her eyes. for a few months
previous she had lost a child by the same
disease. Il nad not uhougnt OF unat, sne
said, but one day my little girl discovered
boys at the gate, stoning a sick cat, took
it in and made bed for It, 1t was CON-
tinuously trying to claw its throat, like
you describe. She kept trying to get 1t to
eat, but annoyed it and 1t bit her finger.
In short time she was taken with diph-
iberia and died.
~ If humanity is the fmpelling feeling, why
not devote the sums for cat homes to new
or existing institutions for helpless and suf-
fering babes? SUFFERER.

The Veterans and the Lee Statue.
To the Editor Of The Evening Start

I. a New England woman. feel that the
Union Veterans Legion makes a grave mis-
take in the position taken in reference to
placing the statue OF Robert E. Lee in the
Capitol. Instead Of producing discussions
and reopening vexed questions, I believe
it would be the surest way of stopping such.
My kin fought on the northern side but
am confident were no more honest in their
convictions than such men as General Lee.
who stood for the best the south had to
give; and 1t is the character Of the man and
not his temporary alienation from the fed
Grated states, or his belief in the right OF
each one Of those states to become a law
unto itself, which We should honor. Look
back to the mother country Of US Saxons;
look at the civil wars Of England and num-
Der the brave men who Fought under the
red rose or the white, under round-head or
cavalier. and see how England honors both
alike. 1t Is the character. not the side; the
honesty Of purpose. not the, perhaps. mis-
taken zeal which makes the American, as
the Englishman. worthy a nations regard.
Can we afford to overlook and put aside
this, and emphasize the division which the
best Of US are earnestly hoping may cease
to exist? X.

to enforce discipline, and in consequence a
small rebellion seems to have been started.
Further lit is stated that Dixons suspen-

weeks past" Now, If Mr.. Dixon is credited
with being the leader of this so-called re
bellion," which you say originated upon the
retirement of the former president, DR.. Ram

under Amusement for several weeks when
DR.. Rankin retired just a week ago?
