FREE TO MILLIONS.
A Valuable Little Book Sent Free for
the Asking.

Medical books are not always interest
ing reading, especially to people enjoy
ing good health. but as matter. of
fact. scarcely one. person in ten is per-
fectly healthy. and even with such
sooner or later sickness must come
1t is also a we'll established truth that
nine-tenths of all diseases originate
with a breaking down of the digestion;
4 weak stomach weakens and impover-
ishes the system, making it easy for
disease to gain a foothold.
Nobody need fear consumption, kid
ney disease, liver trouble, or a weak
heart and nervous system as long as the
digestion is good and the stomach able
TO assimilate plenty of wholesome food
Stomach weakness shows itself in a
score of ways. and this little book de-
scribes the symptoms and causes and
points the way to cure so simple that
any one can understand and apply.
Thousands have some form of stom-
ach trouble and do not know it. They
ascribe the headache, the languor, ner-
vousness, insomnia, paIpitation, consti-
patton, and similar symptoms to some
other cause than the true one. Get your
digestion on the right track and the
ease, or nervous debility will rapidly
disappear.
This little book treats entirely on the
cause and removal of indigestion and its
accompanying annOyances.
It describes the symptoms of Acid
Dyspepsia, Nervous Dyspepsia, Slow
Dyspepsia, Ambiguous Dyspepsia, Ca
tarrh of the Stomach, and all Affections
of the digestive organs in plain Ian
guage, easily understood, and the cause
removed.
It gives valuable suggestions as to
diet, and contains a table giving length
of time required to digest various arti-
cles of food, something every person
with weak digestion should know.
No price is asked, but simply send
your name and address pIaiuly written
on postal card, to F. A Stuart Co,
Marshall, Mich. requesting a little book
on Stomach Diseases, and it will be sent
promptly by return mail.

HEART DISEASE.
Some Facts Regarding the Rapid Iu-
crease of Heart Troubles.
Do Not Be Alarmed. but Look for the
Cause.

Heart troubles. at least among Amer
icans, are certainly increasing, and
while this may be largely due to the
excitement and worry of American
business life. it is more often the re-
suit of weak stomachs. of poor diges-
ton
Real, organic heart disease is incur
able; but not one case in hundred of
heart trouble is organic
The close relation between heart
trouble AMI poor digestion is because
both organs are controlled by branches
OF the same great nerves. the Sympa-
thetic and Pneumogastric.
In another way also the heart is af-
fected by that form of poor digestion
which causes gas and fermentation
from half-digested food; there is a
feeling of oppression and heaviness in
the chest. caused by pressure of The
distended stomach on the heart and
lungs, interfering with their action:
hence arise palpitation and short
breath.
Poor digestion also poisons the blood.
makes 1t thin and watery. which irri-
tates and weakens the heart
The most sensible treatment for
heart trouble is to improve the diges-
ton and TO insure the prompt assinila-
ton of food.
This can best be done by the regular
use after meals Of some safe. pleasant
and effective digestive preparation. Ike

ARE you THIN ?
Do You Want to Become FIeshy ?
FEW SIMPLE RULES.
Flesh and Not Fat Is what Is Needed.

What thin people want is flesh. and
not fat To be symmetrical and pro-
perry prOportioned every person should
have certain amount of flesh. To be
plump does not necessarily mean TO be
fat Fat is undesirable: it clogs and
retards the action OF every muscle. in
terferes with the healthy action of the
heart and lungs. and when excessive
predfspOSeS to fatty degeneration of
vital organs, 10 say nothing of the
discomfort, more or less, resulting
from excessive adipoSe tissue.
Common sense would suggest that if
one wishes to become feshy and plump,
the thing most needed would be flesh
forming foods; in other words, al
luminous foods, like eggs, beef, oat-
meal, etc. The kinds of food that make
flesh are the foods that form the great
er part of our daily bill of fare.
Now. the only reason so many people
remain thin is because their stOmachs
do not properly and completely digest
and assimilate the fiesh-fOrming beef
steak and eggs We eat every day
There are thousands of such people,
and they are really dyspeptfc, although
they may not suffer any particular pain
or Inconvenience from their stomachs.
meals, some preparation like StuartS
Dyspepsia Tablets, the food would be
quickly digeSted, and the proper degree
of plumpness very soon secured, be-
cause these tablets are prepared eX-
actly for that purpose. They will di-
gest every variety of fiesh-forming
food, which is the sole reason why they
so quickly build up and strengthen
thin dyspeptic men and women
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets cure dys-
pepsia and every form of Indigestion on
this common sense plan, that they di-
gest the food promptly, giving strength
to every nerve and organ of the body.
while at the same time the stomach has
a chance to rest and recover its natural
vigor. Nothing further is required to
cure any stomach trouble, or to make
thin, dyspeptic people strong, plump and
we'll

NO FAITH CURE

ONLY ONE WAY
To Purify the Blood. Increase Flesh
and Strength and to Cure
Indigest ton.
SECRET PATENT MEDICINES WILL
NOT DO IT.
There Is Simpler and Better Way.

There is only one way to purify the
blood only one way to increase flesh
and that is through the stomach and
digestive organs Why2 Because the
stomach and digestive organs make
blood and flesh, bone, nerves. and
sinew. Did you ever see a person
blessed with a healthy, vigorous stom-
ach and digestion who had impure
blood, muddy. sailow complexion. or
who had weak nerves sleeDless nights
aches arising from poor digestiOn2
No. because perfect digestion converts
the food eaten into pure blood. strong
nerves. and muscles. and all the flesh
person needs to have for health,
symmetry and beauty.
Every person knows whether or not
his or her digestion is what it should
be. but every person does not know
what is the safest and best way to Sc
cure and preserve a healthy condition
of the digestive organs. It is not done
by the use of any wonderful secret
patent medicine but by the use of
which, taken at meals, will digest the
food anyway, regardless Of the weak
condition OF the stomach.

tion of vegetable essences, fruit salts,

der the name Of Stuart's Dyspepsia
Tablets.
These pleasant tasting tablets are to
be dissolved in the mouth after each
meal, and, mingling in the food in the
stomach, digest it perfectly. There is
nothing wonderful about this. Any
physician or chemist knows that
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets will do this,
because repeatedly tested and proved,
and thousands of cured dyspeptics have
found it to be true also.
Dr. HarIandson states that these
tablets increase flesh because they di-
gest fiesh-fOrming food like eggs,
meat, and ordinary everyday food; for
the same reason they purify the blood
and strengthen weak nerves. In no
other way can it be done, because flesh.
blood and nerves are obtained from the
food re eat
DR.. JennisOn once stated that he be-
lieved a 5O-cent package of Stuart's
Oyspepsia Tablets would give more
real benefit than fifty dollars worth of
ordinary doctors fees
These tablets may be found at any
drug store.

Match for Them.

Two Topeka High school basketball
teams, one composed of girls and one of
boys defeated the two teams of the
Lawrence High school Friday night
The girls won by a score of % to 8. and
the boys by a score of 80 to s.
The Lawrence Gazette says of the
contests:
The boys and girls teams alternated
in time of playing. 1.-The girls opened
the game. The result of the first half
for the girls was - to 8 and the last
half 10 to 6, both times in favor of To-
peka. which made a total of 3 to 8.
The Lawrence team played a hard and
fierce game but they were not in it
when it came to goal throwing. The
girls deserved a much better score and
would have gotten it had not luck been
against them. Topeka gained quite a
large number of points by Lawrence
fouls.
