A REED SHAKEN WITH THE WIND.
Without Will Power, Courage, Amhi- tion, Energy or Hope, the Dyspeptic
 Ia Wiiiinu to Give Up the Struuule.

The confirmed dyspeptic has as little in- terest in life as any human being. He .s unfitted for it's duties and is indifferent 5 to its charms. He is unable to enjoy the 5 business and social relations that consti- tute the life of the average man. All his hopes are absorbed by the one hope to get we'll and again be able to enjoy the good things of fife. Until this is realized, he is sick at heart and feels himself to be of little use.
 Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are the suf- ferer's tree of life. They will cure him and bring him health and happiness just as sure and certain as he takes them They are sure because they are natural and no other cure but natural one is sure. They act on the food and digest 1t just as well as a stomach would. They contain exactly the same chemical prop critics as the digestive fluids of the stom- ach.
 By putting Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets in a bottle or jar with any kind of food meat. eggs or vegetables, with sufficient amount of water, the process of digestion is carried out just as 1t is in healthy human stomach and in the same time There is consequently no unnatural dis turbance of the digestive organs resulting from the use of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tab lets. They relieve the weak and. worn-out stomach of it's work and permit it to rest up and reeuperate and regain its normal health and strength.
 A well known Buffalo physician says; 'T prescribe Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets on all occasions as a relief for weakened and rundown stomachs. I find they con- tain all the ingredients necessary for the proper digestion of the food and will do more to give the stomach the needed rest than any medicine I could prescribe. They have never failed to give immediate relief in all my cases and I do not hesitate to recommend them to all sufferers from dyspepsia" a @
 stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are for sale by all Druggists at 50 cents a box.

New Decatur December 5.--(Special.)- Within the corporate limits of this city. near the banks of the wide-spreading and picturesque Tennessee river, there stands today a mammoth rose bush, which, if it were gifted with the power of speech. could relate many stories Of more than passing interest This rose bush is on the old King estate, one of the oldest and best known places in North Alabama Since the recent death of Edmond King, there has come to light a story full of romance, which is woven about this now famous rose bush The story has its beginning in those old ante bellum days, which will ever be remem- bered continues through the trying time of the civil war, when the very hearts of men and women were stirred, and end with the death of Edmond King, which event took place recently.
 The estate on which this rose bush stands was owned before the civil war by General Charles Kings son, Horace King, and Horace King was the father of Edmond King. Horace King did gall lant service in the confederate army, but was killed in an engagement before the close of the war. After his death his estate passed to his children, and this old homestead has been their home ever since Horace King was very wealthy and quite popular in his day, and the local chapter of Confederate Veterans was named in his honor as soon as it was organized.
 Before enlisting in the confederate army Horace King buried a large box contain ing much valuable silverware and many thousand dollars in gold and silver coin, under or near this rose bush. Soon after this event the federal authorities issued an order for the town to be evacuated The King family left the town with the

THE OBR|ANS ARE
LOOKING WELL,
Mr. Leander BelCher, Father of Mrs.
0brian, Says They Have Conf
denCe in the Future.

Mr.. Leander c. Belcher father-in-law
OF Dr. Louis A Oblran. who greeted the
doctor and his family upon their arrival
In New York on Sunday, returned home
last evening alone, his daughter and her
family remaining at Orange, although
the son Euenne, will come TO Providence
later. The other three children. Els
beth IL years old; Harold, 8 years old, and
Dorothy, In her 4th year, will leave Dres-
den early In next month, accompanied
by their governess, TO join their parents
In this country.
In speaking OF the Obrians Mr.. Belcher
said
"one would not suppose that they had
any troubles. from their appearance
or manner when they arrived. or course
the long sea voyage OF two weeks was
very restful. and afforded an opportuni-
ty to recuperate Then. too. they had
much TO make them feel happy in the
flood OF sympathy which they had recei-
we'd from those who knew them. and
knew the injustice OF the calumnies
which had led TO their leaving Dresden.
Professional friends, and others In
Official circles. even in ST. Petersburg
and Warsaw, sent TO them earnest ex-
pressions OF confidence. sympathy and
heartiest wishes for a successful and
happy future. They were overwhelmed
with flowers when they boarded the
steamer TO return home, and a case of
champagne for the voyage
'As matter OF fact" said Mr. Bel
cher, "the doctor was forced TO ask his
friends 20 abandon plans which some OF
them contemplated for seeing them off
There was reason to fear demonstration
which might have led TO unpleasant re-
suits because popular feeling is strongly
against the king and the present admin
stration in Saxony."
The doctor said the stories that the
Princess had long been an immoral wo-
man were cruel lies" said Mr. Belcher
The doctor expressed belief that her
impulse to leave her husband might be
traced TO her condition as a mother. He
talked OF the medical features of the case
at some length and in doing so he made
clear much that might serve to change
the prevailing estimate OF the princess
The doctor talked at some length of
the Influences which caused his name TO
be associated with that OF the princess
In scandalously false gossip some years
ago. The doctor attributed il 10 pro-
fessional jealousy. not only because OF
the class OF patronage he had secured In
his profession, but more particularly be-
cause OF his activity as president OF the
American Society OF American Dentists
OF Europe
THE newspaper men who interviewed
the doctor and my daughter on the Pre-
torfa were all impressed with the setting
forth OF his side OF the case i'm the state
ment he made. and also with the positive
faith OF the Doctors wife In him She
also has knowledge OF how ridiculous a
basis some OF these stories are founded
upon. She knows of an instance when
she was out riding on a tandem bicycle
with the doctor. and they were caught In
a rainstorm, which forced them to seek
