YOU CAN INTEREST HIM.
Any Man over Fifty.

You can interest any man over fifty years
Of age in anything that will make him feel
better, because while he may not as yet
have any positive organic disease, he no
longer feels the %buoyancy and vigor of
twenty-five nor the freedom from aches
and pains he enjoyed in earlier years, and
he very naturally examines with interest
any proposition looking to the improve
ment and preservation Of his health.
He will notice among other things that
the stomach of fifty is a very different one
from the stomach he possessed at twenty
FIVE. That greatest care must be exercised
as to what is eaten and how much OF II,
and even with the best OF care there will
be increasing digestive weakness with ad-
vancing years.
A proposition TO perfect or improve the
digestion and assimilation OF food is one
which interests not only every man of
fifty, but every man, woman and child
of any age, because the whole secret OF
good health, good blood, strong nerves, is
to have a stomach which will promptly
and thoroughly digest wholesome food, be-
cause blood, nerves, brain tissue and every
other constituent of the body is entirely
the product OF digestion. and no medicine
or health food can possibly create pure
blood or restore shaky nerves when a
weak stomach is replenishing the daily
wear and tear of the body from a mass
of formenting half digested food.
No, the stomach itself wants help, and in
no roundabout way. either; It wants direct,
unmistakable assistance, such as is given
by stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets after each
meal.
These tablets cure stomach trouble be-
cause their use give the stomach a chance
to rest and recuperate; one Of Stuart's
Dyspepsia Tablets contains digestive ele-
ments sufhcient to digest 5000 grains OF
ordinary food, such as bread, meats, eggs,
etc.
The plan OF dieting is simply another
name for starvation, and the use OF pre-
pared foods and new-fangled breakfast
foods simply makes matters worse, as any
dyspeptic who has tried them knows.
AS DR.. Bennett Gays. the only reason
can imagine why Stuart's Dyspepsia Tab
let's are not universally used by everybody
who is troubled in any way with poor di-
g~estion is because many people seem "a
think that because a medicine Is advertised
or is sold in drug stores or is protected
by a trade mark must be a humbug
whereas, as a matter of truth, any drug
gist who is observant knows that Stuart
Dyspepsia Tablets have cured more people
Of Indigestion, heartburn, heart trouble
nervous prostratiOn and rundown condi.
tion generally than all the patent medi-
eines and doctors prescriptions for stomach

PEOPLE HAVE SOME RIGHTS
Court of Appeals Renders Decision in
Case of Collision.
MoTORMAN MUST USE DUE CAUTION
No Reason to Assume He Has Clear
Track simply Because No
Regular Crossing is
in Sight.

ST. LOUIS. March 10.-In the United
States court of appeals an opinion handed
down by Judge, Thayer, concurred IN by
Judge Caldwell, defines the rights and
privileges Of pedestrians and vehicles upon
street railway tracks and the duties Of mo-
tormen in running their cars.
The plaintiff in the case, whose vehicle
had been wrecked and the occupants IN
jured, set forth that the motorman was
guilty Of negligence, and the defense set
up the claim that the plaintiff was guilty
of contributory negligence. This was the
main question at issue in the appeal.
Judge Thayer held that a motorman is
under the same obligations to exercise or
binary care and prudence so as to avoid
collisions and the ~injuring Of persons as
these persons are to exercise care not 10
get in the way Of street cars so as to be run
over and injured.
He says pedestrians and vehicles have a
right to cross the tracks of street railways
at any point besides the regular crossings,
and to use the tracks for any distance for
Omaha daily bee., 1903-03-11

a matter Of safety or convenience, where
they do not unnecessarily interfere with or
obstruct the passage Of the cars. A mo-
torman, he says, has no right TO act on the
assumption that he is entitled to a clear
track at all times, and that pedestrians or
vehicles are bound at their peril, no matter
at what inconvenience, to get out Of the
way.
He held that the plaintiff in this case
had a right to use the street railway tracks,
as a convenience, in avoiding the mudhole
N the street, and that the motorman was
guilty of negligence in not taking proper
precautions to reduce the speed of his car
when he saw the vehicle, so as to bring 1t
under such control that he could have
avoided the collision.
Judge Sanborn filed a lengthy dissenting
opinion. He holds the trial judge erred in
refusing TO allow the claim OF contribu-
tory negligence on the plaintiffs part.
