DO NOT WEAR A LONG FACE.
II Is a Great Handicap in All Business
and Social Relations.

The man who looks as if he had lost
mis- last friend is in no danger of being
crushed by the jam of new ones unless
he cheers up" People are not going
out OF their way nowadays to associate
with the man of mournful and melan-
choIy appearance. They are afraid he
will tell them his troubles and they
steer clear of him as they all have
plenty of their own.
The most universal cause of the for
lorn and hopeless appearance today is
dyspepsia. 1t units man for every
duty of life and causes him to become
respondent and gloomy and necessarily!
his looks do not belle his feelings. He
appears cast down and detected and be-
comes a burden to himself and human
ity in general.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are the
dyspeptic's certain relief. They do the
work that his stomach is unable to dc
and by relieving that organ of its
burdens, permit it to regain its health
and strength and again become active
and useful in it's functions. They con-
tain all the essential ingredients that
enter into the digestive fluids and
secretions of the stomach and they
actually take up the work and do it just
as healthy, sound stomach would.
BY this means a man can go right
ahead with his work and eat enough to
keep him in proper working condition.
His system is not deprived Of it's nee
essary nourishment as it Is in the case
of the starvation cure" or the employ
ment of some of the first class chicken
foods now on the market. Starvation,
even if 1t were a good thing, could not
be continued long enough to effect a
cure; for a disordered and WORKOUT
stomach is not going to become strong
and healthy in two or three days.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets act natur-
ally because they contain natural d.
gestives. The principal component
parts are aseptic pepsin, malt diastase
and other ingredients with like proper
ties that do the work regardless Of the
condition of the stomach. There is no
unnatural or violent disturbance Of the
digestive organs as the result Of their
action. In fact, the existence Of the
stomach is entirely forgotten as soon
as they have had time to begin their
operations. They also possess very
curative and healing properties and as
sist the stomach in getting well, while
relieving it of its work. They perform
the duties of both nurse and physician.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are for
sale by all druggists at so cents a box
and there is very little danger OF any
druggist trying to sell you something
else in its place that is "just as good. /"
They are so well established and have
done SO much good in the world thai
their name has become household
world; SO the usual warning, Accept
no substitute" +, unnecessary in the
case Of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets.

General Rrayton'S resolution to reduce
the South's representation in the conVen-

Though the justice of such :, resolution
is generally acknowledged, it is deemed
neNpedent to make it at this time. Thu
President is known to be against it. for
very obvious reasons and Senator Hanna
was never much of an advocate of lessen

The Southern committee men are bitter
ly opposed to any such reduction and
have already appealed to the President
and Senator Hanna to prevent its being
made.
