Demand for Houses.

The demand for houses from those who
wish to buy rather than to rent continues
to be one of the features of the market.
This phase has a wide significance, for 1t
will determine largely the extent and char
acter of the building that will go on In the
future. AS the supply Of houses is taken
up, 1t is but natural new undertakings
should be started.
An illustration of this condition Is found
in the experience Of O'Brien, Blundon q
Belt, real estate brokers' as related by
Mr. Belt He states that during the early
part of last month, from the list to the list,
his company sold twentythree houses for
amounts varying from $500 to 5000 each
He found customers, he says, for more ex.
pensiye houses, but, of course, the chler
demand was for homes Of moderate cost;
Another circumstanm was noticed, ana
that was that the sales were for the most
part for cash.

 "In Montgomery he heard much of the valanche-Democracy that was to sweep from the hillsides with the rush of the crevasses and bear before 1t all opposition, but he had then felt, and still felt, hope and trust in the Gulf Democ- racy that would swell up from her shores in a great tidal wave. bearing all oppo- sition, sweeping all dishonor off its crest until meeting that avalanche-Democra- cy, every vestige of Radicallsm. of hos- tile thought and of dishonest act should be known to us no more forever (Ap- plause.)
 Tn few weeks he hoped to leave Mo- bile to make a thorough canvass of the State in conjunction with his colleagues on the ticket. Having detained them so long already, he would not now speak Oi doctrine nor of his views of this cam paign. Opportunities full and frequent would occur to do this before his de- parture. But when he did leave Mobile he felt that the cause here was reposed in the hands of those who knew how to work had the will to work, has already worked, and made that work recognized at the uttermost bounds of the State. There was a great conflict before us, but he knew that in 1t Mobile would ever show at the front. He believed that he would carry the State (great appiause); that he would carry it by the largest majority since the war (yells of ap- plause). and he felt that in the good work Mobile County woul not only do her share, but do more than her share. HeT vote alone, if cast as 1t should be-no man unwilling and no man absent-could turn the scale.
 ':Yes, yes; once more he would say to his friends and neighbors that when he did leave Mobile he would leave 1t full of hope, full of faith and full of pride. He would turn his back upon those now be- fore him, to see them no more till the polls were closed next November, with the full conviction that the banner coun- ty would be heard from in trumpet tones whose echo would wake any Rip Van Wrinkle in the hills from his lethargy.

The Power of Food.

An Illinois lady who never knew what health was until she reached her 10th year presents an unusually convincing case of the power of proper food. She says
 I am "A years old this fall and l never had good health that I can remember since was child until I commenced to use Grape-Nuts four years ago.
 From the very first l could feel vast improvement and now in four years I have gained so that I do all my own work and feel I cannot say too much in favor of Grape-Nuts and what this gran food has done for me as old as am.
 T have recommended Grape-Nuts to several and they all have been benefted by It. Name given by Postum Co.,, Bat tie Creek, Mich.
 The power of proper food (which means food that the stomach will digest and at the same time yields the all-necessary nu- trimenp Is almost unlimited and that's the reason 10 days trial of Grape-Nuts often works wonder.
 Look for the famous little book, "Thc Road to Melville" in each package.

The Popular
 Vote of 1904
Is Unanimously in Favor of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets-They are
 the Nations Favorite.

No article on the market, whatever be the puSpose for which 1t was created, can he a phenomenal success and be univer- vally popular unless it possesses great and unfailing merit. Inferior and worth less articles may flourish for a limited time if their praises are sung by sufficient clever and catchy advertising; but their finish is a foregone conclusion. This is an age of the survival of the fittest, and only articles of true worth endure.
 The unparalleled and phenomenal suc- cess of SthHrts Dyspepsia Tablets from a business standpoint is not unnatural nor surprising. It Is due directly to their unparalleled and phenomenal success in curing multiplied thousands of cases Of dyspepsia throughout the English-speak- ing world.
 Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets is so plain and simple that child can understand. It Is this and nothing more; they are natural fin their workings and effects. They take up the work or the worn and wasted stomach and do 1t just as the stomach did when 1t was well and strong and abe They actually digest the food and doAi thoroughly. completely and independently, thus giving the weak ana weary stomach an opportunity to renew and regain Its wasted strength. You forget that you have a stomach just as you did when you were a healthy boy or girl and Ma ture restores and heals that organ and makes 1t well and strong.
 A St Louis business man says: T was a confirmed dyspeptic for years. What l ate. had to be forced down and most of 1t soured or lay like lead in my stomach and did me no good. I was in constant misery both in mind and body and came to he cranky, morose and irritable. My natural disposition, which was cheerful and pleasant. left me and I was alienat.ng all my friends. The doctors did me no good I got so I hated the sight or name of a doctor. My wife finally worried me into buying a DOx of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets which I began taking under pro- test as l had no faith in anything or anybody. I was sore on creation.

I could enjoy good meal and feel no bad effects following 1t. l l forgot my stomach and had a chance to think about something else. went ahead Six boxes of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets at a total outlay of $3.0O cured me com pletelY and l have not suffered pain from dyspepsia for two years have an | appetite like a siXteen-year-old boy. ]

 Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets are for sale
 by druggists every where at 50 cents a
 box. All druggists carry them and the
 best doctors are prescribing them. You need not fear that you will ever be un-
 able to get them; for, because of the good they have done mankind and the suffering they have relieved and the happiness they have caused. the fame and the success
 and the popularity of Stu0rt's Dyspepsia
