Initiated Many Feathered
Songsters.

Jack is dead, and great is the grief in
the National Museum.
Jack was probably the liveliest speci-
men that ever inhabited that hall OF
antiquities. Just where he came from, or
when, no one about the Museum seems
to know, for the late lamented was a
veteran, and this when said of an in
habitant of the National Museum means
almost an infinity OF years
What caused the demise can be only
surmised- The Museum long ago dis
pensed with the services Of a bird doc
tor, and when Jack was taken sick he
vas left to figure out ways and means
RI getting well again as best he might
The corpse is row Ia the hands Of the
Museum taXidermist Jack il is said
will have a permanent place on the
shelves
For the information Of the few who
did not boast personal acquaintance
with the deceased, it might be explained
that Jack was q crow, and u more mis-

AN EASY WAY
To Keep Well.

It is easy to keep well If We would
only observe each day a few simple
rules Of health.
The all-snportant thing Is TO keep the
stomach right. and to do this II is not
necessary to diet OF to follow set rule
or bill Of fare. Such pampering simply
makes a capricious appetite and feel
ing that certain favortte articles OF food
must be avoided.
Professor WiechoId gives pretty good
advice on this subject; he says: .tf am
sixty-eight years old and have never had
a seri us Illness. and at the same time
my life has been largely an indoor one,
keep healthy was to keep a healthy
stomach, not by eating bran crackers or
dieting OF any sort; on the contrary.
always eat what ny appetite Graves, bat
daily for the past eight years I have
made il a practice to take one or two Of
Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets after each
for a man of my age to the regular daily
use of Stuarts Tablets.
My physician first advised me 10 use
them because he said they were perfect
ly harmless and were not secret pat
ent medicine. but contained only the
natural dfgeSt!yes. peptones and dias-
tase, and after using them few weeks
| have never ceased TO thank him for
his advice
I honestly believe the habit of taking
Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets after meals
is the real health habit, because their
use brings health 10 the sick and aiiing
and preserves health TO the well and
strong
Men and women past fifty years of age
need d safe digestive after meals to in
sure q perfect digestion and TO ward of
disease, and the safest, best known and
most widely used is Stuart's Dyspepsia
Tablets.
They are found in every well-regulated
household from Maine to California and
