LET YOUR STOMACH HAVE ITS
OWN WAY.
Do Not Try to Drive and Force It to
Work When it is Not Able or You
Will Suffer All the More.

You cannot treat your stomach as
some men treat a balky horse; force
drive. or even starve it into doing work
at which it rebels. The stomach is a.
patient and faithful servant and will
stand much abuse and ill treatment be-
fore ii "balks,' but when it does you
had better go slow with it and not at
tempt to make it work. Some people
have the mistaken idea that they can
make their stomachs work by starving
themselves. They might cure the
stomach that way, but it would take
so long that they would have no use for
a stomach when they got through.
The sensible way out of the difficulty
is to let the stomach rest if it wants to
and employ substitute to do it's work
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets will do
the work of your stomach for you and
digest your food just as your stomach
used to when it was we'll You can
prove this by putting your food in a
glass jar with one of the tablets and
sufficient water and you will see the
food digested in just the same time as
the digestive fluids of the stomach
would do it. That will satisfy your
mind. Now. to satisfy both your mind
and body take one of Stuart's Dys-
pepsia Tablets after eating-eat all ana
what you want-and you will feel in
your mind that your food is being di-
gested because you will feel no disturb
ance or weight in your stomach in
fact. you will forget all about having a
stomach just as you did when you We're
healthy boy or girl.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets act in a
natural way because they contain only
the natural elements of the gastric
juices and other digestive fluids of the
stomach. 1t makes no difference what
condition the stomach is in, they go
their work. They know their business
and surrounding conditions do not in
fluence them in the least. They thus
relieve the weak stomach of all it's bur-
dens and give it its much needed rest
and permit it to become strong and
healthy.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are for
sale by all druggists at so cents box.
They are so we'll known and their
popularity is so great that druggist
would as soon think of being out OF
alcoho! or quinine. In fact, physicians
are prescribing them all over the land
and if your own doctor is real honest
with YOU he will tell you frankly that
there is nothing on earth 50 good for
iyspepsia as Stuart's Dyspepsia Tab
leta .--....

Philadelphia. July 1O-Robert C. HILL chief of the
Bureau OF Building Inspection, forced by
Mayor Weaver TO resign to-day. John Kessler ono
of the inspectors in the bureau was appointed
chief in his place
Mr.. Hill had been connected with the bureau
eleven years The resignation requested by
Colonel Potter, the Director OF Public Safety and
the request did not a surprise. Director

says:
The records of your bureau show that il has
been administered in the past in such manner as
tc highly favor some and oppress others"
The director also stated that Mr. Hill had re-

well known politician, who was building in the i'm
mediate neighborhood, might be benefited and
that he had favored some persons and restricted
others according to the exigencies OF political die
tators.'
