AN OBJECT LESSON
In a Restaurant.

A physician puts the query Have you never noticed in any large restaurant at lunch or dinner time the large number of hearty, vigorous old man at the tables: men whose ages run from GO to so years: many of them bald and all perhaps gray, but none of them feeble senlle?
 Perhaps the spectacle is SO common as to have escaped your observation or comment. but nevertheless 1t is an object lesson which means something. If you will notice what these hearty old fellows are eating you will observe that they are not munching brain crackers nor glngerly picking their way through a menu card of new fangled health foods; on the contrary they seem to prefer a juicy roat of beef. a properly turned lon of mutton, and even the deadly broiled lobster is not altogether ignored. The point of all this is that a vigorous old age depends upon good digestion and plenty of wholesome food and not upon dieting and an endeavor to live upon brain crackers.
 There is n certain class of food cranks who seem to believe that meat, coffee and many other good things are rank pois- ons but these cadaverous sickly look ing individuals are walking condemna- tion of their own theories.
 The matter in nutshell is that if the stomach secretes the natural digestive 1llCeS Tn SullcleHl uudIlllN duN whole some food will be promptly digested; if tho stomach does not do so. and certain foods cause distress one or two of Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets after each meal will remove all difficulty because they sup ply inst what every weak stomach lacks pepsin, hydro-chloric acid diastase and nux.
 Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets do not act upon the bowels and in fact are not strict ly medicine, as they act almost en- tirely upon the food eaten, digesting 1t thoroughly and thus gives a much need ed rest and giving an appetite for the next meal.
 Of people who travel nine out of ten use Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets knowing them to be perfectly safe to use at any time and also having found out by exper- fence that they are a safeguard against indigestion in any form. and eating as they have to. at all hours and all kinds of food. the travelling public for years have pinned their faith to Stuart's Tab lets.
 All druggists sell them at 30 cents for full sized packages and any druggist from Maine to California if his opinion were asked will say that Stuart's Dys- pepsia Tablets Is the most popular and successful remedy for any stomach trou- ble-
