Something You Can see In Any Res
thurant or Cafe.
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 men at the tables.
men whose ages run from 60 to so years.
many Of them bald and all perhaps gray.
but none of them feeble or senile?
Perhaps the spectacle is so common as
20 have escaped your observation or COM
ment, but nevertheless It is an object les
son which means something.
II you win notice what those hearty old
fellows are eating you will observe that
they are not munching bran crackers nor
~gingerly picking their way through a menu
card OF new tangled health foods; on the
contrary, they seem to prefer a juicy roast
of beef, a properly turned loin 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 bran
crackers.
There is a certain class of food cranks
who seem to believe that meat. coffee and
many other good things are rank p~oisons,
but these cadaverous, sickly looking indi-
viduals are a walking condemnation Of
their own theories.
The matter in a nutshell is that II the
stomach s]ecretes the natural digestive
Juices In sufficient quantity. any wholesome
food will be properly digested; IL the stom-
ach does not do so, and certain foods cause
distress, one or two of Stuart's Dyspepsia
Tablets after each meal viii remGSe all
difficulty, because they supply just what
every weak stomach lacks, pepsin, hydro
chloric acid, diastase and nux.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets do not act
upon the bowels and in fact are not strictly
a medicine, as they act almost entirely
upon the food eaten, dlgesting 1t thoroughly
and thus gives a much needed 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 experience 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 has for years pinned their
faith to Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets.
All druggists sell them at so cents for
full sized packages, and any druggist from
Maine to California, IL his opinion were
asked, will say that Stuart's Dyspepsia
Tablets is the most popular and successful
remedy for any stomach trouble.

A serious Mistake.

To the average man II seems childish to
doctor a cold, and unless IL becomes par
tieularly annoying TO him little or no atten-
tlon lie given II. Often a cold contracted in
the winter is allowed to run until the open
ing Of spring. This is a grave mistake, as
even though the warm weather may bring
relief, the system is thereby weakened and
rendered susceptible to disease. A cold
should never be neglected, whether It be a
child or an adult who is afflicted. as health
and often life is rlsked. A bottle of Cham

HOW TO BE
cured Of Pile. without Pain.

First: Change from sedentary occupa-
tion to wisely chosen. more active work.
Second: From indoor to outdoor life.
Third. From wrong to right clothing.
Fourth: From unhealthy. rich living to
a mild h~ygienic diet.
Fifth. sixth and last: Use Pyramid Pile
Cure regularly and according to directions,
for Il is the right cure for the trouble, and
will cure you. as It has hundreds Of others.
Don't wait until you are a helpless in

orrhoids. or piles. may. II neglected. rap
idly lead to worse. The unnatural forma-
tion becomes humorous and permanent and
the Inflammation grows until abcesses
form: the disease burrows into the tissues,
forming tubular growths which discharge
pus; cancerous conditions and general gan
grenous degeneration appear.
What is needed at the start, or at any
stage, is something to soothe this infam-
nation, reduce the swelling and distention,
and at the sam time restore the diseased
parts to normal condition. These three
things are accomplished perfectly by the
Pyramid Pile Cure. It checks all progress
Of the disease and rapidly returns the
affected parts to health, besides relieving
at once the pain and fearful irritation.
Il began using Pyramid Pile Cure and in
order to make sure OF a cure bought five
packages; for the past six weeks | have not

bothered for thirty-hve years and had spent
more than fifty dollars for different rene
dies; this is the first permanent help l
have had and no one could feel more CRATE

Pyramid Pile Cure is sold by druggists
generally for fifty cents a package, and we
urge all sufferers to write Pyramid Drug

FEEDING FOR COLOR.
It Can he Done at Small Expense and
Without InJurinS the Health
of the Chickens.

Assuming that the chickens which 1t
is intended to feed for color are the
product of well-colored stock birds,
there is no reason why their color
should not be intensified by direct feed
ing as canaries are fed; but this must
be done more with a view to supple
menting the tendency to sound color,
than to altering 1t materially. 1t is not
much use attempting to color feed an
adult bird-the experiment must be
tried upon chickens, and they must be
color fed from the shell. The proper
principle to follow is to supply a lit
tie color food regularly-a small guam
tity given in systematic way, but not
spasmodic dosing on large scale. If
the birds be accustomed to it from
Matching time upwards, and then when
passing through their first or chicken
moult they be given rather more lib
eral supply, that is all that can be done.
After the moult the color, of course,
will be determined, and one cannot alter
the color of feathers which have al
ready developed-one can only do that
during the process of development.
When the moult is finished, therefore,
and the color is fixed for the time being.
the color food may be almost entirely
discontinued; but 1t should not be al
together given up, because fowls arc
constantly losing feathers, and if the
effect of this feather food upon the
system be not maintained, by constant
ly giving small doses of it, there is a
possibility that any feathers which may
be lost will be replaced by those of a
different color. The effect of the color
food, therefore, must not be allowed
to entirely lapse from the blood. The
expense of keeping up color feeding
on limited scale like this is not great.
and so it is within reason to do so.-
