THEY ACTUALLY DO THE WORK.
Food Eaten is Worthless Unless Di-
gested-Some Stomachs Must Have
Help.

| Food taken into the Stomach which.
from the nature of the food or the con-
dition of the StomaC n, is not digcSted,
! is worse than no food at all. This is d
true statement as far as it goes and a
great many dys2eptics go only this far
| with their reasoning. They argue with
/ themselves that because their stom-
! achs do not do the work given them.
| they must be given less work, in other
words they must be starved. 1t would
be Just as sensible for a business man
who is unable to do all his own work
to cut down his business to his own
capacity as it is for Il man to Starve
himself to relieve his stomach. The
sensible business man employs hclp
and goes forward with his business.
Likewise the sensible dyspeptic will
employ help for his stomach and give
his body proper nourishmcnt.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets actually
do the work assigned to them. They
relieve weak and overwhelmed stom-
achs of Il great portion of digestive ac-
ton. Their component parts are iden-
teal with those of the digestive fluids
and secretions of the stomach and they
simply take up the grind and carry on
the work just the same as a good,
strong, healthy stomach would do it.
On this account Stuart's Dyspepsia
Tablets are perfectly natural in their
action and effects. They do not cause
the stomach or bowels. They them
selves digest the food and supply the
system with all the nourishment con-
tanned in what is eaten and carry out
Natures plans for the sustenance and
maintenance of the body.
How much more sensible is this
method than that employed by many
sufferers from weak stomachs. BY
this means the body and brain get all
the good, nutritious food they need and
the man is properly nourishei and
equipped to carry on his work and per-
form his duties. He could not possibly
be in proper working condition by
starving himself or employing some
new tangled. insufficient food that does
not contain enough nutriment for a
year old baby. A strong man doing
strong work must be properly fed and
this applies to the brain as well as the
body.
Stuart'S Dyspepsia Tablets, by re-
lieving the stomach of it's work, enable
1t to recuperate and regain it's normal
health and strength. Nature repairs
the worn and wasted tissues Just as
she heals and knits the bone of a brok-
en- limb, which is of course not used
during the process of repair.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are for
sale by all druggists at so cents box
and they are the one article that the
druggist does not try to sell something
in the place of that's "just as good"
Their unqualified merit and success
and the universal demand for them
has placed them within the reach of
every one.

FLY WHEEL BURST.
Three Men Were Killed and
Many Injured.
Steel Plant at Johnstown, Penn.
Scene Of Fearful Accident.
Rail Mill Is Wrecked and Loss Will
Be Heavy.

Jamestown. Pa, Jan. e1.-As a result
Of the breaking Of ex-governor belt al
lowing an immense fly wheel to run
away and burst in the Cambria Steel
Cos. No. rail mill. early Thursday,
one man is dead. three are fatally in
iured and six are more or less severely
wounded. The dead: Edward Cablosky,
IS years of age. caught and held by
a heavy iron girder, while he was
scalded to death.
The fatally injured are: Jake Updyke
severely burned and scalded: Sevao
Emeri, skull probably fractured; some
bones broken; COvac Sewowich, badly
burned and scalded. All the injured
were taken to Cambria hospital.
When Engineer Hissler, who was
standing by his engine. felt the jar of
the immense flywheel running wild
caused by the breaking Of the COVER
nor belt without pausing to consider
his own danger he rushed to the steam
valve and tried to stop the engine. He
was too late. however. for the explo-
sion Of the wheel was almost instanta-
neous. Flying pieces of metal broke
steampipes ard released the scalding
hurled against wooden walls and roof
setting them on fire. Water pipes were
broken. flooding the floor to depth of
n couple Of feet making escape difficult
for the injured.
When the fire had been eXtinSuished
the search for the dead and injured be-
gan and it is believed that all have
been recovered. though at first many
more were thought to have been killed
and injured. Edward Cablosky. the
only dead reported. was struck by a
piece Of steel while sitting on soal
car eating his lunch. His body was
badly crushed. but death resulting
from the scalding steam. Most of the
injured men receiving their initial
hurts from pieces Of flying metal after
which the influx of steam scalded them
In clearing away the debris the
work-men found two more dobies,
those of Louis Szanbovski, who was
found 50 feet away from the scene OF
the explosion, and Frank Tyak, near
the boiler. Tyak had been scalded to
death and his flesh was hanging from
his body in shreds. Martin Hoffman
a water boy. is missing but as all the
debris has been cleared away 1t Is
thought he must be safe. Only the
walls Of the mill are standing and they
are full of dents made by pieces OF the
flying wheel. The wheel which eX-
ploded weighed Sc tons, was 20 feet III
diameter and the rim was two feet
square, the spokes being IA inches in
diameter.
The loss will be so, 900 to $4,000.

PNEUMONIA HERE
Leads All Other Diseases in Death Re.
ports-Thc Cause and Why.

Pneumonia leads all other diseases In
the weekly death reports filed at city
hall within the past few weeks.
Pneumonia Is germ disease, due to
Il specific germ. 1t IL not Of particular
called the DiplocOccus 1t Is important
to know, however, that the pneumonia
germ cannot grow in a system that Is
properly fortified.
Pneumonia frequently follows long
eyposure-and when the doctors use
the word exposure, they mean any
| condition that tends to exhaust vitality
and waste tissue; it may be a cold, a
drcnchins in pouring rain, or "a
| weakened state Of the organs of the
body-excesS in any form.
The doctor knows that his first duty
| Is to have the patient take nourishmcnt
that will increase the bodily warmth.
The elements that Nature draws upon
day by day to keep up this bodily
| warmth are the exact properties con-
tanned in the formula OF Father johns
| Medicine.
That is why no other medicine ever
prescribed Ii more effective in curing
colds, grip and pneumonia.
| Pneumonia often follows colds and
| grip because the body has been weak
| cned by the poisonous and nervc-dcad-
ening drugs contained in SO per cent. of
| the patent medicines and so-calicd
| cough balsams'' and syrups."
What you mistake for temporary re-
| lief from these dangerous preparations
| Is dcadening of the nerves at the eX-
pense Of weakening the body: the DIS
| Ease and impurities remain.
If after a cold or attack OF the grip,
Won feel tired and exhausted 1t il be-
| cause the process by which the lmpuf-
| tiles are driven out has been inter
| rupted ana held in check by these
| lrugs.
1t is In the getting well stage that
| there is great danger. and it is impor-
| ant that the body should be nourlshen
| md strengthened, gradually ana nat
