YOU CAN INTEREST HIM.
Any Man Over Fifty.

You can interest any man over fifty
years of age in anything that will make
him feel better, because while he may not
as yet have any positive organic disease
he no longer feels the buoyancy and vigor
of twenty-five nor the freedom from
aches and pains he enpoyed in earlier
years, and he very naturally examines
with interest any proposition looking to
the improvement and preservation of his
health.
He win notice among other things that
the stomach of fifty is a very different
one from the stomach he possessed at
twenty-five. That greatest care must be
much of it, and even with the best of
care, there win be increasing digestive
weakness with advancing years.
A proposition to perfect or improve the
digestion and assimilation of food is one
which interests not only every man of
fifty but every man, woman and child of
any age, because the whole secret of good
health, good blood, strong nerves, is to
have stomach which will promptly and
thoroughly digest wholesome food be-
cause blood, nerves, brain tissue and
every other constituent of the body is en-
tirely the product of digestion, and no
medicine or "health' food can possibly
create pure blood or restore shaky nerves,
when a weaw stomach is replenishing the.
daily wear and tear Of the body from a
mass of fermenting half digested food.
No, the stomach itself wants help and
in no round about way either; it wants
direct, unmistakable assistance such as
is given by one or two Stuart's Dyspepsia
Tablets after each meal.
These tablets cure stomach trouble be-
cause their use give the stomach chance
to rest and recuperate; one Of Stuart $
Dyspepsia Tablets contains digestive ele-
ments sufficient to digest 1900 grains of
ordinary food such as bread, meat, eggs,
etc.
The plan of dieting is simply another
name for starvation, and the use Of pre-
pared foods and new tangled breakfast
foods simply make matters worse as any

Essex County Republican
Machine Backs the Aban-
donment Measure.
IT WILL De JAMMED THROUGH
It's Substantial Effect VIII
Be to Give Absolute Con.
troll to the Morris Ca
nal and Banking Go.

Special to s'The Jersey City, News
TRENTON, March II, 1908. The ac-
tivity displayed in the Hobbies of the
State House last night indicated to the
most casual frequenter of the Capitol
that there was something little out Of
the ordinary in the wind.
The intangible something developed
in the course Of the evening when As
semblyman Boyd, the Republican leader,
introduced in the House the long talked
of Morris Canal abandonment bill, which
marks the third attempt on the part of
the lessees of the canal to secure the
passage by; the Legislature of measure
that will relieve the Morris Canal and
Banking Company from its obligations
to use the canal for purposes of nayiga-
tion and to vest in the lessees the charter
and property rights of the canal.
The appearance of Major Lent, to-
gether with the fact that Assem- blyman
Boyd of Essex presented the bill, cen
irmed the report that the measure, when
it appeared, would have the endorsement
0 fthe Essex Republican machine, which
is to be lined in force for the support Of
the BILL
There has been SO much talk to the eff
feet that when the measure made its APP
pearance it would be so amended as to.
conserve the interests of the State, but a
hurried perusal Of th measure, which
was all that was possible last night,
materially from the bill that failed Of
passage in 1901. 1t is true there are
some amendments, but these seem to be
generally inconsequential and do not
ma aterially affect the general scheme in
which it is proposed to put through the
abandonment.
The substantial effect would be to per-
NIT the Morris Canal and Banking Com
pany or its lessees, to make any use
they choose Of the water, rights of way,
cloud rights and other privileges CON
ferred by the charter until 1878, when
the charter expires, and all rights grant,
ed under it revert, by the express pro-
visions of the charter, to the State.

Mayor Vetoes the s. & W.
Board Resolutions Per-
mitting a Transfer
for Sewer Re-
pairs.
SELOOSS TO HAVE SEPARATE METERS
interest of April Water Debt
Paid Byrne to Improve
Cornelison Avenue.

AT yesterdays meeting of the Street
and Water oBard the Mayors veto of
the eBards resolution of February IL,
giving permission to the North Jersey
Street Railway Company to run its Pa
vonia avenue line cars both ways ON
Erie street during the reconstruction of
sewer extending in part along Jersey ave-
nue., from Second to Fourth streets, and
also from Fourth to Fifth street, was re-
ceived. The company was to have been
requested to temporarily remove the
tracks that are in the way of the proper
reconstruction of said sewer at the points
mentioned.
The Mayor says that his reasons for
the veto are twofold In the first place."
lie says, there is no necessity for such
resolution. The right of the company
to maintain tracks and run cars in Jersey
avenue is subject to the paramount right
of the city to remove the tracks and in
terrupt the running of cars temporarily
in order to lay or repair sewer therein
The passage of the resolution is need
less abandonment of the city's rights in
the street.
nj the second place, it is recogni-
ton, and, perhaps, ratification of the
right of the company to lay and main
IN tracks> and run cars thereon in Jer-
avenue and Erie street This COM
~ nssasslzsr saaiifect franchise from the
city in reference to these streets, and
whatever rights it has there belong to it,
BY assignment, the validity of which we
should be careful not to pass upon Incl
dentally and without careful considera-
tion. If the company applied for the
privilege granted in your resolution we
should consider whether the recognition
by the city of their rights in Erie street
and Jersey avenue was not the real, and
to them possibly a very important object.
If the company did not apply for this
privilege, then there is no reason what
ever for the passage of the resolution.
The company knows very well that the
city authorities win not interfere with
the running Of their cars both ways on
Erie street during the construction of the
sewer. If the representative of your
Board who has charge of this sewer work
on behalf of the city requests the com
pany to temporarily remove their tracks
the company win not refuse to comply
with such a request"
Clerk Geo. oButon says the company
did apply for such privilege, and that
the interests of the city were safe
guarded in the resolution in every pos
sible way.
The oBard passed resolution to the
effect that hereafter all saloons must be
metered separately from other apart
ments on the same floor. The city will
put in one meter in such cases on the first
floor or other floor on which q saloon
may be located, but the owner of the
building must put in the other meter on
such floor at his own expense.
