A LAYnAN

Speaking Of coffee a doctor OF Decatur

TO use the drink. and later on found my
self affected with serious stomach trouble,
indigestion, headache, etc.
The headache came on so regularly and
oppressed me so that I found It difhcult
to attend to my regular duties. One day
last Nov. / met a friend whom 1 had known

quire what he had been doing. He an
nounced that he had, some time ago, quit
coffee and was using Postum Food Coffee,
to this change he attributed the change in
his health.
took the hint, even from a layman. and
made the same change myself, The first

much. The third week the change was
almost magical. l have continued with the

DISCUSSES OMAHA CHARTER
Il. ROsewater ADVISES that Any
Changes BE Made Along broad

iFrom asstaff Correspondent.

lFrom ia4Stan Correspondent, !
LINCOLN, March. Especial Telegram.)
e. Rosewater, who came down from
Omaha this afternoon, was invited to APP
pear before THE, Douglas county delegation
tonight to discuss the Omaha charter bill,
H. r. 800. Mr.. Rosewater said his idea of
a charter for a metropolitan city would be
one on a broad gauge, that would meet
present and future conditions. In this re-
spect he thought the present charter Of
Omaha was deficient. Mr.. Rosewater ia
vored a general policy of expansion rather
than contraction. He thought the city
should have from twelve to sixteen wards
rather than nine. He believed it would be
wise to elect one councilman for every
1.2OO or 1900 voters. Varied interests re-
quired this. If the city could not legislate
a higher standard of qualification and NOR
atty in its council 1t could increase the
number. Mr.. Rosewater argued against a
reduction of salaries for fear of inducing
a cheaper set of men. He did not want
extravaganza, but thought, as compared
with other cities of similar size, Omaha
was paying a low scale of salaries. In
the matter of the police scale of salaries
as proposed by the new charter bill he
thought, however, the scale should start at
about $50 for practitioners, a little lower
than the bill proposed, then advance
gradually. He objected to the proposed
plan of subjecting the names Of all street
and other minor city employees to the action
of the council. He said II the public works
officers who hired these men were not re-
sponsible discharge them. 81 believe in
responsibility and Capitalization" said Mr..
R6sewater, and in this connection he OBJ
jected to the comptroller being made a
member OF. the'Board of Public Works.

r~esenting the New York Mutual Life, pro-
tested vigorously against taxing outside
companies on a per cent Of their gross re-
ceipts. They claimed the tax was not only
unjust, but was unconstitutional.
B. H. Robinson, representing the home
companies, said he was satisfied with the
bill, and would accept the decision Of the
committee without protest. He was in
favor of taxing the different companies as
provided for in the bill. -
Speaker Mookett also protested against
the insurance tax.
The full committee was not, present and
a meeting will be held in the morning tc

ing by allowing It to go to the general file
and be generally discussed.
Douglas of Rock spoke in support Of the
majority report, ~contending that the bill
had been exhaustively discussed In public,
press and legislature and that further con-
sideration was ~superfuous.
Wilson Of Pawne conourred In these re-
marks, saying he was sure every member
OF the house was thoroughly determined
as to his attitude on this bill. He de-
clared. with some degree Of enthusiasm.
that further consideration of this bill was
time wasted.
Kennedy Of Douglas plead for the bill
to be placed on general file SO that its
friends might have every chance Of a fair
hearing. He said It was too important a
measure to be disposed OF without going
on general file and be fully discussed.
Sears Of Burt put in a strong but brief
plea for the bill, declaring with Kennedy
that 1t was too important a bill not to be
generally discussed on the ioor Of the
house.
Loomis Of Dodge vigorously pleaded for
the bill. The principle involved in It he
declared to be Of the most. vital concern to
every taxpayer Of Nebraska and added
that 1t was Of more Importance than any
thing that would come before this legisla.
ture. For that reason he thought the house
would seriously err II II summarily killed
the bill. He said the opponents Of the bill
were not lacking in ability to discuss the
measure in committee of the whole MOI
were its friends unable to hold up theil
end of the argument. No harm, therefore
could be done by placing the bill on gen.
eral hle-no person or interest injured.

Good Medicine.

Good Medicine.
Stomach troubles are so common and in
most cases so obstinate to cure that people
are apt to look with suspicion on any rem
edy claiming to be a radical, permanent
cure for dyspepsia and indigestion. Many
such pride themselves ION their acuteness
in never being humbugged. especially in
medicines.
This fear of being humbugged can be car
ried too far, 80 far, in fact, that many
people suffer for years with weak digestion
rather than risk a little time and money
in faithfully testing the claims made of a
preparation so reliable and universally used
as StuArt's Dyspepsia Tablets.
Now Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are
vastly different in one important respect
from ordinary proprietary medicines for
the reason that they are not a secret patent
medicine, no secret is made Of their in
gradients, but analysis shows them TO con-
tain the natural digestive ferments, pure
aseptic pepsin, the digestive acids, Golden
Seal, bismuth, hydrastis and nux. They are
not cathartic, neither do they act power
fully on any organ, but they cure indi-
gestion on the common sense plan OF d.
costing the food eaten thoroughly before
1t has time to ferment, sour and cause the
mischief. This is the only secret OF their
success.
Cathartic pills never have and never can
cure indigestion and stomach troubles be-
cause they act entirely on the bowels,

A Company Town.

Crossett, Arkansas, where Mr.. and
Mrs. Phares Shive live, is indeed a
company town. In letter to THE
BLADE a few days ago Mr.. Shive gave
us the following interesting facts con.
corning Crossett: "It is numbering
town, having one of the largest mills
in the country. Mill now running
day and night and the planning mill
days and half the nights; nine room
dry kiln running full capacity day
and night. This is a very busy town;
no idleness; no one allowed to live
here who does not work for the COM
pany. There are 75O men on the
payroll; no one can own property or
do mercantile business here, as the
company owns and controls every
thing inside the corporation and they
own several thousand acres of timber
ed land around it which will supply
them with logs for 25 or 80 years
saving of from 10000 to 100000
feet of lumber per day. 1t is one of
the best equipped mills in the country.
All married men are assessed S1.25
and single men rs cents a month for
medical attention in case of accident
or sickness and II per cent. of their
wages in case of accident, which enti-
ties them to balf pay during disabili-
ty, but nothing for sickness except
medical attention. Best regards to
