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 60 to 80 years; many of them bald and all perhaps gray, but none of them feeble or senile?
 Perhaps the spectacle Is so common as to have escaped your observation or comment, but nevertheless it 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 gingerly 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 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 brain crackers.
 There is a 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 a walking condemna- tion of their own theories.
 The matter in a nutshell is that if the stomach secretes the natural digestive juices in sufficient quantity any whole some food will be promptly digested: if the stomach does not do so, and certain foods cause distress one or two of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets after each meal will remove all difficulty because they SUD- ply just what every weak stomach lacks. pepsln, hydro-chloric acid. diastase and nux.
 Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets do not act upon the bowels and in fact are not strict ly a medicine, as they act almost en- tirely upon the food eaten. digesting it thoroughly and thus gives a much need ed rest and giving an appetite for the next meal
 Of people who travel nine ont of ten use Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets knowing them to be perfectly safe to use at any time and also having found out by exper- fence that they are 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 50 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.

 ton to recover damages for personal
 iii uries-Appeal from the City court of
 BIrm ngham.
 1. Wanton negligence; when shown; gen. eral charge-In an action against a rall- road company to recover damages Tor the alleged wanton or willful killing of plain tiff's intestate, the defendant is not en- titled to the general affirmative charge, where there was evidence showing that the train which killed the intestate was, at the time, going at a speed of from twenty-five to forty-five miles an hour, on an upgrade. and could have been stopped in a distance of 125 yards; that the engineer discovered the intestate, sitting on the end of one of the cross ties, more than two hundred yards ahead of the engine; that the intestate was then asleep and was killed while he was asleep; that the engineer made no eff fort to stop the train until the man was struck and killed; and the engineer him. self testified that when he saw the man ahead of the engine. he was sitting In a stopped over position as if he was ncd- ding, and witness could see his head mov- ing backwards and forwards.
 2. Same knowledge of perilous position; physical disability to leave track; charge. -One who is so sound asleep on rail- road track as not to be awakened by the noise of an immediately approaching train, is unable. from physical or other disability, to leave his position. and one who knows of such position is chargeable with knowledge that he is unable to move; and charges asserting a proposition to the contrary are unsound.
 8. New trial; review; presumptions.- There is a prima facie presumption in favor of the correctness of the judgment of a trial court denying motion for a new trial, based on the sufficiency of the evidence to warrant the verdict; and 1t is only when the record shows that
