is YOUR Stomach ON a
Strike?
! THERE IS NOTHING TO PREVENT YOr EN-.
PLOYING A SUBSTITUTE TO DO IT'S WORK.

THERE IS NOTHING TO PREVENT YOU EN-.
There is such thing as forbearance ceasing to
be virtue even in the case of ones stomach
There is no question but that some stomachs will
stand great deal more and tear and abuse
than others, but they all have their limit and when
tina: limit is reached the stomach be reckoned
with as sure as fate. The best way and really the
only effective way to treat your stomach when it
rebels is to employ substitute to do Its work
This will give the weakened and WORKOUT organ
an opportunity to rest and regain its strength and
health.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets relieve the stomach
of its work by taking up the work and doing it
just as one set or shift of worEmen relieves an
other They actually digest the food in Just the
same manner and just the time as the di-
gestive fluids of n sound stomach do In fact
when dissolved in the stomach, they digestive
huids for they contain exactly the same consttu-
ents and elements as the gastric juice and other
digestive fluids OF the stomach. No matter what
the condition of the stomach is their work is just
the same. They work in their natural way
without regard to surrounding conditions
The stomach being thus relieved by Stuart 8
Dyspepsia Tablets is restored and renewed by
Nature and the rest of the human body does not
suffer in the least by Of its failure to per-
form its work.
A Wisconsin man says: 81 suffered the papes of
dyspepsia for ten years. / tried every known rem
cdy with Indifferent results until told of the
remarkable cures Of Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets
/ bought box began taking them and forgot
had stomach. Three boxes cured me completely
l have had no trouble whatever for year and
have appetite like harvest hand and can eat
anything that is set before without fear of bad
results
Stua-t's Dyspepsia Tablets are for sale by all
druggists at zoe. box. The druggist never fails
to have them in stock, because the demand for them
is grea, and pronounced that he cannot AFFORD
to be without them. People who could not get
them of druggist would go TO another and
would get the habit of buying their other drugs
there we'll as their Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets.

Throughout the whole week much to-
bacco has been delivered In the local
market and 1t would seem that there
can be but O very small fraction of the
late crop still in growers hands.
In late issue Of the Edgerton To-
bacc0 Reporter q timely warning Is
given concerning rood seed. The arti-
Gle reads I'VE learn that tobacco
growers are experiencing some difficulty
in getting their tobacco seed to sprout,
especially seed grown last year. If this
complaint is general 1t is quite time
that farmers were apprised of it that
they may act accordingly. No time
should be lost in testing the seed grow
ers intend to use in ths coming crop, 80
they may know when tne time for laying
the seed beds arrives that the seed win
surely germinate, else some serious de-
lays and disappointments will occur
Just how far this complaint extends we
do not know but 1t is well for tobacco
growers to be alert and sure that they
are supplied with good seed. The fail
ure Of new seed produced last season Is
doubtless due to the wet fall and the
neglect Of growers to pIoperly dry their
seed before storing it away It is rare
thing for tobacco seed to lose its vitality
but such instances do sometime occur
1t should be stated in this connection
that reliable dealers in tobacco seed in
variably thoroughly test their seed early
before offering 1t for sale, and growers
are therefore secure in dealing with re-
putable people making a business of
propagation improved varieties of seed.
