THEY ACTUALLY
 DO THE WORK.
Food Eaten is Worthless Unless Di- gested-Some Stomachs Must
 Have Help.

Food taken into the stomach which. from the nature of the food or the con dition of the stomach is not digested, is worse than no food at all. This is a true statement as far as it goes and a great many dyspeptics go only this far with their reasoning. They argue with them selves that because their stomachs d1 not do the work given them, they must be given less work; in other words, they must be starved. It would be just as sensible for a business man who is un- able to do all his own work to cut down his business to his own capacity as it is for a man to starve himself to relieve his stomach. The sensible busi- ness man employs help and goes forward with his business. Likewise the sensible dyspeptic will employ help for his stom- ach and give his body proper nourish- ment.
 Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets actually do the work assigned to them. They relieve weak and overburdened stomachs of great portion of digestive action. Their component parts are identical with those of the digestive fluids and secretions Of the stomach and they simply take up the grind and carry on the work just the same as good, strong, healthy stomach would do it.
 On this account Stuart's Dyspepsia Tab lets are perfectly natural in their action and effects They do not cause any un- natural or violent disturbance in the stomach or bowels. They themselves d- gest the food and supply the system with all the nOurishment contained in what is eaten and carry out Natures plans for the sustenance and maintenance of tho body.
 How much more sensible Is this method than that employed by many sufferers from weak stomachs. By this means body and brain get all the good, nutritious food they need and the man is properly nourshcd and equipped to carry on hs work and perform his duties. He could not possibly be in proper working condl- tion by starving himself or employing some new fanged. insufficient food that does not contain enough nutriment for year-old baby. A strong man doing strong work must be properly fed and this applies to the brain as well as the body.
 Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets, by relieving the stomach of its work. enable it to re- cuperate and regain its normal health and strength. Nature repairs the worn and wasted tissues just as she heals ana knits the bone of broken limb, which is of course not used during the process of repair
 Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are for sale by all druggists at 50 cents box and they are the one article that the druggist does not try to sell something in the place of that's just as good" Thei- unquali- lied merit and success and the universal demand for them has placed them wlthln the reach of every one.

Advertiser Bureau,

Selma, NOV. Zl. Mayor Atkins this morning discharged John Stratman, charged with the mur- der of Idabelle Jones. The mother of the child swore out a warrant for Stratman several days ago on the death of her daughter, claiming that Stratman had struck the child op the head with bot tie. and that death resulted from the in- 1uries. The man claimed that he had thrown bottle out of his wagon about three weeks ago. and 1t may have struck the girl, but that the wound inflicted was not such as to have caused death. Mayor Atkins ordered a post mortem and upon the report found below from pr. DuBose, Stratham was discharged:

The chest cavity revealed the pres. ence of adheslons between the pleural walls in the lower half of the chest (pleuraD cavity. these adhesions extend- ing over the covering of the heart (per- icardium.) The lower left lobe of the lung was consolidated, these conditions were produced by a pleuro- pneumonia, which condition. In my opinion. was the cause of the child's death. The abdoml- nal cavity was free from blood. bruises or any other signs of injury.
 Respectfully.

Birmingham, Nov. 24.-(SpeoIal.) J. Con- gressman John H. Bankhead of the Sixth day, coming from Washington late last night. bald Congressman Bankhead to- day:
 as results are concerned, has been a dead failure. The President thought that the ratification of the Cuban reciprocity treaty was of sufficient importance to call an extra session. Thee was practically no Opposition to the treaty in the House as 1t passed by a vote of 3S5 to q. The bill then went to the Senate and was referred to the Committee on Foreign Relations, reported back and placed on the calendar by agreement to be voted on December 16. All this shows the utter uselessness of the convenins of Congress in extra ses- sion. The President convened Congress for the clear purpose of passing a bill to which there was no apparent opposition. He utterly failed to accomplish that end, not because of opposition to the of great number of Republican Sena- tors to get even."
 In speaking of the political outlook for next year, Congressman Bankhead said that he still held to the opinion that Cor man was the most available man for the Democrats to nominate He believes that if German is nominated he will be elected
 In discussing the Panama question Con- gressman Bankhead said:
 The Democrats in the House and Sen ate are of the opinion that the President
 
 passed by his own Congress to guide him When he failed to negotiate a satisfac- tory treaty with Colombia for an isth- milan canal he should have washed his hands of the whole Colombian affair and opened negotiations with Nicaragua as he was directed to do by the Spooner act. It would have been much safer and more in keeping with our idea of government to have pursued this course. But the President thought differently. He has the power to negotiate d treaty looking to the construction of a canal which he will doubtless do.'
 Collector J. o. Thompson, brother of Congressman Thompson, this afternoon gave out a statement in reference to the protest against the appointment of John ton. as postmaster at Tuskegee Institute. Mr. Thompson said the referees of the State had recommended the establishment of separate office at the school and the retention of the same postmaster who has been acting for several years. The rec ommeDdatiOn was made to have the mails delivered direct to the school instead of being carried first to Tuskegee and then sent out to the school. He said:
 we are asking that the same privi- ieges be granted the Tuskegee Institute as are granted to the University of Ala bama. which has separate and distinct postoface from Tuscaloosa. The state ment that the office is to be created for the purpose of providing a place for Prin- cipal Washingtons brother is without foundation"
