CONCLUSION.
Conscious of having at least en-
deavored to enforce the laws and toI
serve the people with fidelity, now lay
down the commission with which I have
been honored. To my successor T
earnestly say, God speed! He will
have to face great responsibilities. But
it actuated, as / believe he will be, by
a. lofty appreciation of the responsible
ties devolving upon him, he will give
the state wise, earnest and honest adj
ministration.
To you, gentlemen of the legislature,
have been committed duties of the
greatest concern. You are the guardi-i
ans of the most important public inter-
ests. You are to serve an intelligent
courageous and law-abiding people, who
appreciate and approve faithfulness i1i
public life. That you will meet your
duties with fidelity and courage, have
no doubt, and in bidding you farewell,
II earnestly bespeak for you the
confidence and gratitude Of the people
of Minnesota.

STRANGER THAN FICTION,
A Remedy Which Has Revolutionized
the Treatment Of Stomach Troubles.

Lne treatment OF stomach TROUBLES.
The remedy is not heralded as a won-
derful discovery nor yet a secret pat.,
ent medicine, neither is it claimed tor
cure anything except dyspepsia, indi.I
gestion and stomach troubles with
which nine out of ten suffer.
The remedy is in the form Of pleas
ant tasting tablets or lozenges, contains
ing vegetable and fruit essences, pure
aseptic pepsin government test), goldsl
en- seal and diastase. The tablets are
sold by druggists under the name OF
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets. Many in.i
teresting experiments to test the diges.l
tive power of Stuart Tablets show
that one grain of the active principl0i
contained in them is sufficient to thoIv
oughly digest 5000 grains of raw meat
eggs and other wholesome food.
Stuart's Tablets do not act upon the
bowels like after-dinner pills and cheap
cathartics, which simply irritate and ins
flame the intestines without having anyt
effect whatever in digesting food OIL
curing indigestion. Il
If the stomach can be rested and as-i
sisted in the work Of digestion it will
very soon recover its normal vigor, asI
no organ is so much abused and overAf
worked as the stomach.
! This is the secret, If there Is any SO.
cret, Of the remarkable success OIL
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets, remedy
practically unknown few years ago.
and now the most widely known Of any
treatment for stomach weakness.
| This success has been secured entirely
upon it's merits as digestive pure and
simple, because there can be no stomach
trouble if the food IS promptly digested.
Stuart IS Dyspepsia Tablets act en-
tirely on the food eaten, digesting it,
completely, SO that it can be assimil-
ated into blood, nerve and tissue. They
cure dyspepsia, water brash, sour stom-
ach, gas and bloating after meals, be-
cause they furnish the digestive power
which weak stomachs lack, and unless
that lack is supplied it is useless to at.
tempt to cure by the use Of "tonics, =
"pillsn and cathartics which have abb
solutely no digestive power.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets can be
found at all drug stores and the regular
use Of one or two Of them after meals
, will demonstrate their merit better than
, any other argument.

GIRLS TRAINING SCHOOL.
While I have asked that the recon-
mendations of the board should receive
your careful consideration, l desire es-
pecially. to call your attention to the one
suggesting the removal of the girls from
the Red Wing training school, and the
establishment of a new Institution for
them to be known as the estate Indus
trial School for Girls.' No argument
is necessary to prove that this would
of our publics pirtied citizens are deeply
interested in securing this change, and
have labored zealously to bring about
such a result. In my Judgment, this
should be done, and l urge you to enact
the legislation necessary during the
present session.
There is another recommendation T
desire to especially call to your atten-
ton. On assuming office in 1901. and
again in 1908, [ urged that the counties
sending patients to our insane hospitals
should pay one-half the expense of their
maintenance. | claim that while this
would not to any great extent decrease
the cost, it would have a tendency to
the exercise of greater caution in MAX
ing commitments. Other states have
similar laws and good results follow.

and relatives, and weak-minded persons,
or those who are old and feeble, perhaps
mildly demented, would be cared for at
their homes or by those who are in
auty bound to look after them. AS it
is, they are sent to our hospitals. This
largely increases the population of our
institutions, and causes a constant de-
mand for more buildings, besides put
ting additional burdens upon the tax
payers of the state. [ believe the pas
sage of such law would remedy these
evils, and largely aid in solving the
question Of how best to care for our in
sane, and materially lessen the demand
for new buildings.
In closing this subject, it is safe to
state that the board of control has fully
justified all that has been claimed for it.
in the near future there will be. no adj
wholly to the business-like methods en-
ployed, and to the faithful and pains
taking work of the members of the
board. Another factor that has been
most essential to success, is the entire
enforcement of politics from the man
agemcnt Of the various institutions. No
man is selected or retained in position
on account Of his party affiliations OF
his political influence. If this is ever
done. and this board prostituted to base
political purposes, it's value to the state
will be immeasurably lessened. if not
destroyed altogether. Not only is il
free from political control in any way
but as far as possible a system Of civi
service promotion prevails; In case
the. employees are made. I take this oc
casion to publicly commend the mem
bers of the board of control for thei1
excellent services to the state.
