Stock piles have been as large as now,

Now this newly mined ore is ready by

Weak

Are due to indigestion. Ninety-nine of every
one hundred people who have heart trouble
can remember when it was simple indges-
ton. 1t is scientific fact that all cases Of
heart disease, not organic, are not only
traceable to, but are the direct result of indi-
gestion. All food taken into the stomach
which fails of perfect digestion ferments and
swells the stomach, putting it up against the
heart. This interferes with the action Of
the heart, and in the course of time that
delicate but vital organ becomes diseased.

A state fair bill that will please ev-
erybody can not be expected to be pre-
scented to the legislature at time
when more than one point in Kansas
wants the fair. IN the present instance
the bill written by Senator White and
passed by the senate is being opposed
in the house although it is beyond
question the fairest measure of the
kind ever presented to a Kanssa Iegis-
lative body. It IS absolutely fair to the
whole state. 1t is fair because it places
the location of the proposed exposition
at the judgment of the state board of
agriculture, which represents the whole
state, geographically, better than any
other. Yet the bill is opposed because
the claim is made that this bill favors
Topeka. The opposition is being led
by those who favor placing the control
of the fair management in the hands of
a purely political commission with
nothing to protect it from the evils to
which it win certainly be liable. A
bin embodying this proposition has
been introduced and is being pushed
by the members from Reno county
Hutchinson wants the fair and believes
her chances will be favored by the pas
sage of this bill. The White bill has
been pushed to the front and its decis-
ion still hangs in the house of repre-
sentatives. IF it is defeated there will
be no state fair appropriation of any
sort.
The opposition to the White bill claim
it favors Topeka. That statement is
without foundation. All the advantage
Topeka has lies in the possession of an
ample fair grounds-already somewhat
improved and in her own possession
of the state capital Whatever hopes
Topeka entertains of landing the state
fair are founded on these apparent
advantages. The attitude of the repre-
sentatives of other states of the estate ap-
pears to be that whatever Topeka
wants she should not have. On this ac-
count the opposition threatens to pre-
vent the state from having a fair at all
and to kill bill of manifest fairness
