YOU WILL BE ALL =
SMILES AGAIN.
Forget Your Stomach and You'll
Have a Santa Claus Face.
HOW TO Do 1T.

If there is one thing more than all
others that will give a man forlorn
and friendless appearance and make
him morbid and cranky and disagree
! able, that thing is dyspepsia 1t makes
one forget his friends and become mo-
rose and irritable. He is so wrapped
up in his own misery that he is incon-
Siderate of every one else. Relieved Of
this terrible and depressing ailment, he
again becomes a good fellow and a man
among men.
Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets are beyond
question the most effective and popular
remedy ever offered to the sufferers of
this terrible disease. The thousands and
thousands of cures they have brought
about and the enormous increase Of
their sales fully attest the truth of this
statement
They are, above all, a natural rem
edy. They possess exactly the same
properties that the gastric juices and
other digestive fluids of the stomach
possess and they actually do the diges-
tive work of the stomach and enable
that organ to rest and recuperate and
become sound and well. They act in
mild, natural manner and cause no dis
turbance in the digestive organs. They
prevent any fermentation of the food
which causes sour stomach. In fact,
under their influence the subject forgets
that he has a stomach and his resulting
cheerfu1ness presents a great contrast
to his former detection.
Millions of boxes of Stuart's Dyspep-
STA Tablets are sold annually and they
are but in the dawn of their popularity
Every mail brings letters of thanksgiv-
ing from grateful ones who have been
cured of this terrible disease. The fol-
lowing is one Of hundreds received each
week:
Rev. ]. r. Hoag of Wymore. Neb.
writes: For six years 1 have been
troubled with dyspepsia. Last fall be-
came very much alarmed at some
symptoms of heart trouble and came to
believe there was a sympathetic relation
between the two diseases, or rather,
that the stomach trouble was the cause
of the heart disturbances. I hit upon
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets for a rem
edy and invested a dollar and a half for
three boxes which lasted me three
months and I can eat any kind of food
1 want and have a good, vigorous ap-
petite. Although I am ~ years old, I
now feel perfectly we'll and without
being requested by anyone I make this
statement as a compliment to the vir-
tues of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets"
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are for
sale by all druggists at 80 cents a box.

Since the first suggestion of the Audi
forum pipe organ idea offers for its
construction have been frequent. The
association has already ascertained that
by a substantial first payment the con-
struction of an instrument can be Sc
cured, and arrangements can be made
for the payments covering an extended
period of time. President Norman Plass
of Washburn college has suggested a
number of plans for raising money.
Among these are the securing of indi-
vidual subscriptions; the giving of en-
tertainments by the association; con-
tributions secured from musical and
other clubs and societies in Topeka and
finally by giving a final dedicatory en-
tertainment when the instrument is
completed. At Saturday nights meet
ing no time was devoted to this feature
but arrangements are already under
way for a concert in the Auditorium.

POLITICAL NOTES.

Reports from Cloud county now indi-
cate that Charles N. Peck will have
practically no opposition in his
county for the senatorial nomination,
and if Cloud county is solid, Republic
county will probably give the senator
to Cloud without opposition. w. w.
Caldwell, of Concordia, thought about
getting into the race, but Conner Da-
vies, who trains with Caldwell politi-
cally, says he thinks Caldwell will stay
out. DR.. Briefly, of Glasco, was also
talked of, but there seems to be con-
siderable doubt about his running when
the time comes.
Commenting on Senator Burton's
speech before the state teachers on
purity in politics." the Holton Recor-
der suggests that the senator ought to
have brought in his friends, Pete Fo-
ley and Tom Kelly, to show how he
practices what he breaches.

T. Anthony for governor" signs Col.
Z B. Murdoch. Whereupon the FIRE.
donia Citizen calls attention to the fact
that Col. Murdoch was one of the boss
busters who helped defeat George T.
Anthony for second term in 1898.
The Holton Recorder is responsible
for this Song of the Politicians: With
apologies to Mother Goose:
Sing a song of politics,
A bottle full of rye,
A half a dozen boss busters
All a DRAWN nigh.
When the bottles opened
The boys begin to sing
"Glad I am a boss buster,
This is just the thing"
A bum is in the alley
Handin' out the dough;
Another's on the street corner
Swearin 'tisn't SO.

There will positively be no increase
in rates at any of the hotels during
either of the conventions" said o. Z.
Smith. who is a member of the commit
tee. THE charges will be the same as
at any other time, although, of course,
more people will be put into one room
and it will be impossible to give any one
separate quarters. For instance, where
the rates are 81 per day for one person,
they will be just double that for two,
and so on, no matter how many there
are in a room. If one person wants a
room by himself and is willing to pay
whatever price the hotel man could get
by filing the apartment to its capacity
that can be arranged satisfactorily. We
intend to care for all who come here
during the convention and there will be
ample accommodations"
State Auditor Wells tells the follow
ing story about Justice Atkinson, the
new member of the supreme court:
whenever a man rises to any unus-
ual prominence in his community the
old timers always commence to tell
stories of his early days. Judge At
kinson has proven no exception to this
rule. One of the old timers remarked
to US, on hearing of Judge Atkinson's
appointment that he remembered well
the time when the judge was admitted
to the bar. He said that he was teach
ing school over near Galesburg, some
twelve miles from Erie, where he had
applied to Judge Stilwell for adrnis-
sion to the bar; that he could not afford
TO lose the time or be to much expense,
so after school hours on a Friday after
noon he walked to Erie and on Satur-
day morning took the examination and
