Tales That Are Told.

T was one of the kind who would.. [ believe that coffee was hurting me" says N. Y woman. You just couldn't convince me its use was connected with the heart and stomach trouble l suf- .fered from most all of the time. My trouble finally got so bad had to live on milk and toast almost entirely. for three or four years. Still loved the coffee and wouldn't believe it could do such damage.
 What I needed was to quit coffee and take nourishment in such form my stomach could digest. I had read so much about Postum, the cereal coffee. but never thought it would fit my case until one day decided to quit coffee and give 1t a trial and make sure about it. So I got a package and carefully followed the directions. . ...
 Soon I found began to get better and was able to eat carefully selected foods without the aid of pepsin or other digests, and 1t was not long before l was really a new woman physically.
 Now I am healthy, hearty and sound, can eat anything and everything that comes along and know this wonderful change Is all due to my having quit coffee and got the big quantity of nour- ishment I needed through this delicious Postum in place of the dangerous coffee and tea.

A
 sunl Cure for It.
 Catarrh of the stomach has long been considered the next thing to fncurapie- The usual symptoms are a full or ptoal- ing sensation after eating, accompanies something's with sour or watery risinRz. a formation of gases. causing pressure on the heart and lungs and dimcuit breathing, headaches. hckie appeI.es nervousness and a general played out'
 languid feeling.
 There is often q foul taste in the
 mouth, coated tongue and If the fnte~
 rior of the stomach could be seen ft
 would show a slimy infiamed sconoi- tion.
 The cure for this common and obsti- nate trouble is found in treatment which causes the food to be readily thoroughly digested before 1t has time to ferment and irritate the delicate mu- cous surfaces of the stomach. To ser cure a prompt and healthy digestion IS the one necessary thing to do and when normal digestion is secured the cafar- rhaI condition will have disappeared. According to Dr. Har1anson. ths safest and best treatment is to use af- ter each meal a tablet. composed of Diastase. Aseptic Pepsin. little Nux. Golden Seal and fruit acids. These tab- let's can now be found at all drug stores under the name of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets and not being patent medi- cine can be used with perfect safety and assurance that healthy appetite and thorough. digestion will follow their regular use after meals.

Monticello, Mimi, April 25.-Mr J.
W. Moore of this place stands as a liy-
ing proof of the fact that Rights
Disease, even in the last stages, may
be perfectly and permanently cured.
Mr.. Moore says: In 1898, three rep
utable physicians after a careful exam
ipation told me that / would die with
Eright's Disease inside of n year. My
feet and ankles and legs were badly
swollen: | could hardly stand on my
feet and had given up all hopes Of
getting cured. when a travelling sales
man told me that he himself had been
cured of Bright's Disease two years
before
He said he had taken to his bed
and expected to die with it, but that he
had been cured by a remedy called
Dodds Kidney Pills.
Il commenced taking them at once
and am thankful to say that they
saved my life. After a short treat
ment, / was completely restored to
good health and | am as sound as

SlGSBEE'S LITTLE JOKE.
He Did Not Enjoy Having His Wife
Turn the Tables.

Just before Admiral Sigsbce left
League Island to assume command of
the South Atlantic squadron he told
the following little joke on Mrs. Sigs-
bee shortly after the Spanish-Am eri-
can war was over he and his Wife were
In Washington. Several OF the en-
ployes of the government departments
expressed Il wish to see the hero OF
the Maine in the flesh. and so day
was appointed for the Sigsbees to visit
some of the buildings. On entering
the Treasury Building Admiral Sigs-
bee, who admits that his powers OF
observation are very keen so far as
young women are concerned noticed
that there were sprinkled around in
various parts of the building several
very attractive looking women.
Admiral Sigsbee kept quiet for a
few moments, and then turned, with
a whimsical smile in his keen brown
eyes. to Mrs. Sigsbee and the officials
who accompanied them. and said;
Don't you think that if our friend
Mr.. Hobson considers it his especial
privilege TO kiss all the pretty girls
in sight that |, as an old grandfather.
ought to have the same privilege"
Mrs. Sigsbee, who prides herself on
being able to keep mp with the nimble
wit of the Admiral. answered the queS-
ton.

Cuff Bracelets.

The 'barbaric" reigns supreme in the
jewelry world. says the London Express.
The Cleopatra cuff bracelet is one of the
Soyelties. 1t is n deep band of gold,
wider at the top than at the hand, and
shows a gorgeous arrangement of translu-
cent enamel, separated by chased and
pierced bits of gold.
The bracelet resembles a cuff in shape
and design, and for that reason has been
called the cuff or gauntlet gracelct
Small pearls, with colored stones, are
also used, with the enamel work to fur
ther enhance the beauty of the dull sill
yer or gold foundation.
Some of these novelties resemble deli
cate and rare meshes of lace, finished at
the top with Vandyke points, richly stud
ded with penrls and brilliants.
