that the Japanese recently centered a fire
from the land positions and from the fleet
blockading Port Arthur on the west har-

of wholesome. perfectly harmless vegata-

These remedies are combined in loZengc

their good Qualities indefinitely, whereas
all liquid medicines rapidly lose whatever
good qualities they may have had as soon
as uncorked and exposed to the air.
This preparations Is called Stuarts DyS-

of these Tablets or loZenges will digest
from 900 to 3.0O0 times its own weight of
meat. eggs. and other wholesome food.
And this claim has been proved by actual

Preserve Their Health and Lives in the
Philippines by the Use Of Stuart's
Dyspepsia Tablets.
THEY CURE DYSPEPSIA IN ALL CLIMATES. .

On account of change in diet and eating
at irregular times food that was often
improperly prepared, the soldiers of the
United States army are often subject to
serious stomach trouble in the Philip
pines. Their distress and danger were
great. but they found relief and a certain,
safe and positive cure in Stuart's Dvs-
pepsia Tablets. All sufferers from dys-
pepsia or indigestion likewise find GER
tain relief and cure in this great safe
and harmless remedy. The work of
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets is no longer
confined to any one country or nation.
Their fame and popularity are now world
wide and they are relieving the sufferers
of every land
the work assigned to them. They relieve
weak and overburdeEed stomachs Of q
great portion Of digestive action. Their
component parts are identical with those
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 Tab
lets are perfectly natural in their action
and effects. They do not cause any UNI
natural or violent disturbance in the
stomach or bowels. They themselves di-
gest the food and supply the system with
all the nouriShment contain 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 suffers
from weak stOmachS. BY this means
body and brain get all the good. nutritious
food they need and the man is properly
nourished and equipped to carry on his
work and perform his duties. He could
not possibly be in proper working condi-
ton by starving himself or employing
some new-fangled. insufficient food tina
does not contain enough nutriment for 4

strong work must be properly fed. and
this applies to the brain as well as the

A copy of this reply was sent to

different in tone from the one which
they had answered, had been publish
ed.
who edited the Junior challenger
was the question the SophOmOres were
asking the Juniors, Saturday evening.
The revised challenge reads as fol-
lows:
ITO the men of 1906:

knowledge the challenge of 1906 to a
Joint debate. But inasmuch as it is
contrary to college etiquette and ira

to accept this challenge. But. never
