TEST EXPERIMENT.
Peculiar Power Possessed by a New
Medicine.

OF new discoveries there is no end,
but one of the most recent. most re-
markab1e and one which will prove IN
valuable to thousands of people. IS a
discovery which it is believed will take
the place of all other remedies for the
cure of those common and obstinate
diseases, dyspepsia and stomach
troubles. This discovery is not loudly
is a scientific combination of whole
some, perfectly harmless vegetable es-
sences, fruit salts, pure pepsin and bis

These remedies are combined in loz,
enge form, pleasant to take, and will
preserve their good qualities indefi-
nitelv. whereas all liquid medicines
rapidly lose whatever good qualities
they may have had as soon as I'M
corlxed and EXPOSED to the air.
This preparation is called Stuart's
Dyspepsia Tablets, and it is claimed
that one of these Tablets or lozenges
will digest from 300 to 5000 times its
own weight of meat, eggs and other
wholesome food. And this claim has
been proven by actual experiments in
the following manner: A hard-boiled
egg cut into small pieces was placed in
a bottle containing warm water heated
to 50 degrees Cor blood heat; one of
these Tablets was then placed in the
bottle and the proper temperature
maintained for three hours and half,
at the end OF which time the egg was
been in healthy stomach. This ex-
pertinent was undertaken to demon
strate that what it would do in the
bottle it would also do in the stomach,
hence its unreasonable value in the
cure of dyspepsia and weak digestion
Very few people are free from some
form of Indigestion, but scarcely two

YANeER-ABEL MATCH.
PAIR Will Battle in Chicago on Night
OF Nov. 10.

Chicago Nov. 6-Benny Yanger, the
local Italian featherweight, who met
his first defeat in his recent fight. at
San Francisco with Eddie Hanlon. mas
agreed to another battle. Manager
John Hertz, representing Yanger. and
Manager Allegretti, for kid" Abel
have signed articles of agreement Tor
a six-rornd bout before the Watlta
Athletic club on Monday night, Novem-
Der 16.
Aside from the contests at the Chi
cago Athletic association. this will be
the first boxing bout in Chicago since
the sport was stopped by Mayor Har-
rison, and its outcome will be watched
with interest by all followers of the
pugilists. -,
On their previous form Yanger will
naturally be the favorite. but no one
knows as yet what effect his defeat
will have on the work of the little
italian. Abel has been considered as
in a class below Yanger in cleverness,
but he has a punch in either hand, and
for this reason is always dangerous.
Ben Donnelley will probably be the
referee of the bout and the men Will
fight at catch weights.
The restrictions on boxing, as laid
down by Mayor Harrison, promise not
to bother the promoters greatly. Sew
eral men are now at work forming
clubs that will come under the same
class as the Chicago Athletic associa-
ton, which is permitted to hold fights.

Schreck has been up against all the
tough welterweights in Chicago, and in
agreeing to take on Stiff he is going, out
of his class, as the latter has Tor long
while been fighting in the middleweight
class, and has won a number of creditable
Victories Only short time ago he agreed
to knock out Charley Burns in six rounds
or forfeit the purse. This he failed to do.
Billy Hogan. schreck,s manager, wno
he has time and again seen Stiff in action
It can be taken for granted that he knew
what he was doing when he agreed to put
the local man against the Windy City
blacksmith. They say Stiff can hit
punch hard enough with either hand to
knock down a horse.
