after taking seven or eight bottles my skin
was cleared of all eruptions and took on
ruddy, healthy glow that assured methat
my blood had been restored to its nor
NAL, healthy condition. My appetite was
restored, as I could eat anything put be-

GIVE YOUR STOMACH
A NICE VACATION
Don't Do 1t BY Starving 1t EIther-Let
a Substitute Do the Work.


The old adage. "All work and no play
makes Jack dull boy" applies Just as
well to the stomach, one of the most i'm
portant organs of the human system. as
1t does to the man, himself
If your stomach is worn out and rebels
against being further taxed beyond its
limit, the only sensible thing you can do
is to give 1t rest. Employ a substitute
for short time and see If it will not more
than repay you in results
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are a willing
and most efficient substitute They them
selves digest every bit of food In the
stomach In just the same way that the
stomach itself would, were 1t well. They
contain all the essential elements that the
gastric juice and other digestive fluids of
the stomach contain and actually act Just
the same and do just the same work as
the natural fluids would do, were the
stomach well and sound. They therefore.
relieve the stomach, just as one workman
relieves another, and permit it to rest and
recuperate and regain it's normal health
and strength
This vacation" idea was suggested by
the letter of a prominent lawyer in Chi
cago Read what he says: 'I was engaged
In the most momentous undertaking of nv
lie. In bringing about the coalition of GER
tain great interests that meant much to
me as well as my clients. 1t was not the
work of days, but of months, I was work
ing night and day almost, when at a verv
critical time my stomach went clear back
on me. The undue mental strain brought
1t about and hurried up what would have
happened later on
What l ate 1 had to literally force
down and that was source of misery as
had sour stomach much of the time.
My head ached, I was sluggish and began
to lose my ambition to carry out my un-
dertaking. 1t looked pretty gloomy for
me and confided my plight to one of
my clients. He had been cured by Stuart 9
Dyspepsia Tablets and at once went down
TO drug store and brought a box up to
the office.
1 had not taken a quarter Of that box
before found that they would do all the
work my stomach ever did; and as rest
or vacation was out of the question for
me, l determined to give my stomach a
vacation. 1 kept right on taking the tab
lets and braced up and went ahead with
my work with renewed vigor, ate just as
much as ever did and carried out that
undertaking to a successful issue. 1 feel
that l have Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets
TO thank for saving me the handsomest fee
l ever received as well as my reputation
and last but not least my stomach"

the corporation did a general brokerage
business in stocks, bonds and cotton.
An assignment was made today for the

The company, of which A. B. Baxter
was president and Felix Lipp secre-
tary, was incorporated In 1902.
John F. Mcintyre, of Cantor, Adams
& Mcintyre, attorneys for the assignee,
says the suspension results from the
short interest in cotton held by a num-
Der of the firms customers who failed
to respond to calls for extra margins.
The firms embarrassment, Mr.. McIn-
tyre says, will probably be only tenn
porary.
Mr.. Mcintyre says that the corpora
tion was not member of any of the
New York exchanges, but was repre-
sented on many out-of-town exchang-
es, including, he thinks, the Chicago
Board of Trade and the New Orleans
Cotton exchange. The corporation had
over 100 branch offices, and, according
to Mr.. Mcintyre, its 5000, 900 of capital
was actually paid in. He added that
the liabilities are certain to exceed
100000.

NEW YORK, Jan. 80. - Daniel j..
Sully, the cotton king, cleared $500, 900
today in the spectacular rise of July
cotton, which touched 1888. He
bought 100000 bales yesterday at 16
and sold out today at an advance of
from 60 to 80 points. Directly charged
to the operation of Sully was the as
signment Of A. B. Baxter & Co.
NEW ORLEANS, La, Jan. 30.-An-
nouncement was made on the floor of
the cotton exchange of the closing of
the house of A. B. Baxter & Co., here
today. Baxter & Co. is one of the
largest commission houses in the coun-
try, with branches in many cities. The
violent fluctuations in the cotton mar
ket are said to be responsible for their
trouble.
Baxter & Co. is the firm which in
sttuted the litigation here in the effort
to prevent the New York and New Or
leans cotton exchanges from cutting
off their quotations. An injunction was
issued and the Western Union Tele-
graph company was forced to continue
to serve customers throughout the
country even if those customers were
unrepresented in either cotton ex-
change.
1t is not supposed that the firm has
lost much, money here, but through the
Middle South it is estimated that it has
been losing $4,000 a day for some time
past against the long side of the cotton
market.

Baxter & Co. had only recently bought

THE COUNCIL.

The coming together Of the Congre-
gational council in our city, which
closed it's session last evening, was
the greatest religious event in the his
tory of our city. 1t was great because
it stands for religious education; great
because it believes in the brotherhood
of man, because of the fatherhood of
God. Great because there was not a
jar or friction during it's whole ses-
sion; thy had but one object in view,
and that was how best to carry the
light to humanity. The work Of the
session as well as the addresses and
sermons Of many Of the leading min
listers was elevating and instructive.
While the citizens of Des Moines
know more of the great work that this
denomination is doing, they have been
drawn closer to them. The American
Missionary Society, an auxiliary of
the church, has done and are doing
much in the way of educating our peo-
pie. They spend more than 100000
annually in this direction and the del.
egates that were present was evidence
of what Christian education will do
for people. They were all educated
Christian gentlemen. We believe we
speak the sentiment of the better
thinking people when we say they
stand for all that Christian manhood
embraces.
