is YOUR STOMACH ON A STRIKE?
There is Nothing to Prevent You EN-.
ploying a Substitute to Do Its Work

There is such q thing as forbearance
ceasing to be a virtue even in the case
of ones stomach. There is no question
but that some stomachs will stand a
great deal more wear and tear and
abuse than others, but they all have
their limit and when that limit is reach
ed, the stomach must 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 en-
ploy a substitute to do it's work. This
will give the weakened and worn-out
organ an opportunity to rest and regain
its strength and health.
Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets relieve the
stomach of it's work by taking up the
work and doing it just as one set or
|shift of workmen relieves another.
They actually digest the food in Just
the same manner and just the same
time as the digestive fluids of a sound
stomach do. in fact when dissolved in
the stomach they are digestive fluids
for they contain exactly the same con-
stituents and elements as the gastric
juice and other digestive fluids of the
stomach. No matter what the condi-
ton of the stomach is, their work is
just the same. They work in their own
natural way without regard to sur
rounding conditions.
The stomach being thus relieved by
Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets. is restored
and renewed by Nature and the rest of
the human body does not suffer in the
least by reason of it's failure to perform
it's work.
A Wisconsin man says: II suffered
the pangs of dyspepsia for 10 years. I
tried every known remedy with indif-
ferent results until I was told of the re-
markable cures of Stuart's Dyspepsia
Tablets. I bought a box, began taking
them and forgot I had a stomach.
Three boxes cured me completely. I
have had no trouble whatever for
year and have an appetite like har-
vest hand all can eat anything that is
set before me without fear of bad re-
SUITS
Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets are for
sale by all druggists at soc. box. The
druggist never fails to have them in
stock because the demand for them is
so great and SO pronounced that he
cannot afford to be without them. Peo-
pie who could not get them of one drug
gist would go to another and would get
in the habit of buying their other drugs
there as well as their Stuarts Dyspep-
STA Tablets.

FIRE INSURANCE AGENTS
Suggest How to Make an Increase in
Their Business.

Hartford, Conn.,, Oct. 22.-The Ma
tional Association of Local Fire Insur-
ance Agents brought their annual con-
vention to a close, Thursday, after an
important session during which officers
were chosen for the coming year ana
resolutions carefully, prepared by a
committee were adopted. The nomi-
mating committees list of officers was
approved as follows:
President, John c. North, New Ha-
ven; vice president, A. H. ROBINSON.

troit; secretary and treasurer, Frank
S. Holmes, Chicago.
C. H. Wordsworth of Buffalo, past
president of the association, offered the
report of the committee on resolutions
which was adopted. 1t was in part as
follows:
Another years experience confirms
the opinion existing that the preferred
business is the direct cause of multiple
agencies, excessive commissions, rebat-
ing, rate cutting and abnormal expense
rations. We commend the efforts of
the companies and the rate-making or
CARNATIONS in obtaining the most per-
feet and reliable information and stat
istics as all classes of risks to the end
that the rate upon each and every class
may be so adjusted as to produce only
reasonable profit. We earnestly
recommend all local agents to encour-
age and support companies which con-
duct their business on a sole agency
basis by preferring them in every prac-
teal way.
1.-THE cotton, tobacco and whiskey
business is being lost by the local
agents of the Southern states. This
transfer of business is causing great
hardship to both local and general
agents and is defrauding the states of
their legitimate income from taxation.
The association earnestly requests all
companies to faithfully observe the
resident agency laws of the several
states; to refrain from writing this
business over the heads of their agents
and to do all that is in their power to
defend the interests of the local repre-
sentative"

MARSHALL WAS*THE one
The Proper Credit for the Year Book
Idea Belongs to Him, It Is

Washington, JAM 13s.-North Dakota
papers received here recently have con-
tained paragra phs In connection with the
proposal to have congress provide the
annual issues Of the year book of the de-
partment of agriculture ito agriculture
colleges which, perhaps unintentionally,
do injustice to Congressman Tom Mar
shall. The paragraphs mentioned are to
the effect that the movement in this di-
rection was started by Senator McCum
Der. AS matter Of fact the proposal
was first made, by Mr.. Marshall when
the president of the North Dakota agri
cultural college was here last winter at
which time the president suggested that
it would be a good thing for the congress
man to supply. the 800 copies needed to
give one year Book to each student Of
ns dosfe qacea aps for
each member, and MarEhall then said he
would be glad to contribute his share,
and he suggested that the number re-
quired by the college be made up by him
self and the two senators. Then the
practicability of having the government
supply the agricultural colleges Of the
various states with these pub1ica tons
occurred to Marshall and he consulted
Secretary Wilson and Representative
Heatwole of Minnesota, chairman Of the
committee on printing, and both fell In
line with the plan Immediately and prom
ised to do what they could to help 1t
along. This statement is made in order
to- correct the impression that apparently
is prevalent in North Dakota that Mr..
Marshall had nothing to do with the
plan, and is not intended as knock on
Senator McCumber, who, believe, does
not want credit when his acts do not
entitle him to it, and who is always up
and doing for the state.

Senator Henry Gjertsen of Hennepin
county, introduced bill TINS morning pro-
llibiting bucket shops and all similar instl-
tutions.e The author has given much at
tention to this subject and feels satisfied
that he has drawn comprehensive law
which if passed will effectually end the
bucketshop evil Senator Wilson, who is
the attorney of the Minneapolis Chamber
Of Commerce, read the bill over somewhat
hurriedly and gave it his unqualified ap-
prevail He said that after a cursory ex-
amina ton. he thought the bill unobjection-
able to the grain men of Minneapolis and
believed that it would have the effect Of
closing up all bucket shops.
1T is supposed that the bucketshop pro-
prietors will make a hard fight to defea
this measure. Some of them are known to
be making from $4,000 to. $1,000 per
month in clear profit and they will not sur
render such a prize without a desperate
fight Senator Gjertsen's bill briefly de-
fines bucket shops as follows: First, an
office or other place where deals are made
to be closed settled upon the basis of
public market quotations or prices made
pm board of trade or exchange, without a
bona f1de transaction on such board of
trade or exchange. Second where deals
are to close when public market quota lions
of prices Board of Trade or exchange
reach a certain figure. Third, where deals
are made without any intent to deliver the
goods dealt tn..
It Is made a erin to conduct any bust
ness under the guise of such places as
are defined in the foregoing, and it is
the intention of this act to prevent pun
1sh and prohibit any such concerns within
this state. The penalty for the violation
of this law shall be a fine Of not less
than $1,000 and not more than $4,000 and
In default of payment of the fine the per-
SON convicted may be imprisoned in the
