 From childhood I had been bothered with bad blood, skin cruptions and boils. I lad boils ranging from five to twenty in number each season. The burning ac- companying the eruption was terrible. s. S. S. seemed to be just the medicine needed in my case. It drove out all impu- rites and bad blood, giving me perma- nent relief from the skin eruption and boils.

Somebody cornered "Honest John"

leave out of the reorganization of the
Pacific National league this season.
Manager Williams has spoiled all the
good pipes about Spokane joining the
Coast league. Too bad. But he is

says Spokane is cinched for place in

can call it talk, but where there:

Many of the rich mans troubles to-
day come from high living and could
be avoided. They are brought on by
eating all kinds of rich, heavy foods at
irregular times, lack of proper exercise,
undue mental strain, unnatural stimu-

They are serious troubles all right,
but not only can they he avoided but

certain relief of dyspepti,e, rich and

stopping their onward progress now.
A great nation has placed its stamp
approval upon their noble work. The
thousands and thousands of cures they
have effected and the happiness re-

name household word throughout the

The story of Stuart's Dyspepsia
Tablets can be told in word. They
actually do the work that the weak
and wasted stomach is unable to do
and allow it to recuperate and regain
its strength, They contain all the cs-
sental properties that the gastric juice
and other digestive fluids do. and they
digest the food just as sound and
well stomach would. They relieve the
stomach Just as one rested and refresh

that is tired and worn, and Nature
does her own work of restoration.
