TOOK A STRAW VOTE,
Interesting Experiment in Res
taurant.

An advertising agent. representing a
prominent New York magazine, while
on recent Western trip, was dining
one evening in a Pittsburg restaurant.
While waiting for his order he
glanced over his newspaper and no.
ticed the advertisement of we'll
known dyspepsia preparation, Stuart's
Dyspepsia Tablets. AS he himself was
regular user of the tablets, ne began
specializing as to how many of the
other travelling men in the dining room
were also friends of the popular rem
edy for indigestion.
He says: Il counted % men at the
tables and in the hotel Office took the
trouble to interview them, and was
surprised to learn that nine of the
twenty-three made a practice of TAX
ing one or two of Stuart's Dyspepsia
Tablets after each meal
"One of them told me he had suffered
so much from stomach trouble that
at one time he had been obliged to
quit the road, but since using Stuarts
Dyspepsia Toilets had been entirely
free from indigestion, but he con-
tinued their use, especially while trav-
cling, on account of irrcgularity in
meals and because. like all travelling
men, he was often obliged to eat
what he could get and not always what
ne wanted.
Another, who looked the picture of
health said he never ate a meal with
out taking Stuart Tablet afterward,
because he could eat what he pleased
and When he pleased without fear of a
sleepless night or any other trouble
Still another used them because he
was subject to gas on stomach, causing
pressure on heart and lungs. shortness
OF breath and distress in chest, which
he no longer experienced since using
the tablets regularly
Another claimed that Stuart's Dvs-
pepsia Tablets was the only safe rem
edy he had ever found for sour stom-
ach and acidity. He had formerly used
common soda to relieve the trouble.
but the tablets were much better and
safer to use"
After smoking. drinking or other ex-
cesses which weaken the digestive or
gans, nothing restores the stomach TO
healthy, wholesome condition so eff
fectually as Stuart's Tablets.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets contain
the natural digestives, pepsin, diastase,
which every weak stomach lacks, as
well as nux, hydrastn and yellow
parilla, and can be safely relied on as
as radical cure for every form of
poor digestion. Sold by druggists
everywhere.

Dangers of Rndium.

From the New York Evening World
The radium experiments for the re-
storation of little blind girls sight
have been conducted by experienced
operators who are alive to the dam
gers of the remedy and not over
sangune of success.
But it may be only a question of
time when this novel scientific toy
will enter on the cure-all period of
its history, and it is we'll to repeat
Fdison's warning that the radium ray,
like the X-ray possesses some proper
ty which tends to destroy that ele-
ment in the human body which re-
builds and heals after an injury"
The lesson was dearly learned with
the X-rays-learned at the price of
amputated arms and fingers, hardened
arteries and shriveled tissues. 1t will
be lucky if the new experience is
gained at less cost.
So let us go slow about making 1t
panacea for all ills and grow skep-
teal when it is exploited as a destroy
er of cancer and a new consumption
specific which kills diseased bacilli and
restores decayed lung area to activity
Given a ray which kills bacilli, what
is to prevent its killing the interview
ing tissue? Mr.. Edison's point is well
taken.

The Face of an Engine.

writer in the London Saturday Re-

railway engine has a face, and that the
face has an expression. Look at an
engine" says the writer, land you can
see that one looks noble-simply noble
in its strength; another, gigantic in
force, but not noble-an expression of
mere brute strength. Some engines
have lofty, almost supercilious, ex-
preston, others almost foolish. Some
have an air of SNUG stoutness. Then
there are engines that distinctly look
angry, and others cOmparatiVely gem

"what is the key to this physiog-
Monty? Where is the seat of express

the funnel. 1t has been easy to OBJ
serve this lately, as the engineers of
most English railways have been short
ening the tunnels The old broad
gauge Great Western had much fin
er expression than the last new pat
tern with the short funnel. The new
engine looks powerful indeed, but the
short black funnel has given it a sim
lister, ugly expression.

the Executive Committee.
Horses not bringing back the weight
shown before the race or within two
pounds of it, shall be disqualified.
The use of electric or other appliances
other than the regular equipments of
riding, is absolutely prohibited. For
violation of this rule, the horse upon
which it is used may be disqualified,

High Glass of Horses VIII Attend
The class of horses that will be in
attendance on the races here will be of
the highest class outside of the big
circuits, and many of them have faced
the starter on the big Eastern and
Western tracks.
Among those of better quality that
will be seen here are Sandarck, a two
year-old chestnut gelding, by Selena
out of Mordella. Some of the old ia
vorites who came within the money last
year are, DR.. Todd, Dorothy Yates, Ger
tain, and Kingfull DR.. Worth, a horse
that made a splendid record on the ex
position track at Charleston will be
here, as will also Ermack, a four-year-
old. who is credited with three straight
wins at New Orleans last winter.
The track is now being put in excel
lent shape and the stables repaired so
that when the horses arrive everything
will be in readiness for them.
officers who have had years of ex-
perience around the different race
tracks will be ged for the meet
ing, and the best season of racing ever
enjoyed in Savannah will be seen.

There are many who believe that
Bosten could have taken the entire Sc
ries had she wanted to, but several of
the games were sacrificed to make the
competition closer and to- fatten the
gate receipts. However, that is a
foolish view.
The best team of ball players on
earth, picked from every team, will
suffer sometimes from the element of
luck that exists in all ball games, and
it is foolish to say that one team can
beat another even a series of three
games without chance of losing.
The Boston team is in great favor
in several Georgia cities, where a
large number of the players are
known. The team practiced in Macon
last spring, and has decided to go
there again this spring. Fred Clarke,
at the head of the Pittsburg team, is
will known in this city, and played in
Savannah several years ago.

Philippe, who was such an enigma
to the Bostons in the first few games,
was not only batted hard, but he saw
his rival, Dineen, carry off the honors
by holding the Nationals down to four
scattered hits, which. backed up by
perfect fielding prevented a single
Pittsburg man getting farther than
third base. Dineen struck out seven
men and his support by Criger con-
tributed materially to the success of
the game. Score:
