DECISION in LAND CASE.

Interesting Suit Decided by Judga
Parker-TitIe in Present Occupant.
Judge Parker today rendered his de-
cision in the case of sstottlemire against
Pishel holding that Mr.. Pishel is en-
titled to ownership and possession OF
a farm Of 100 acres, the title to which
has been In dispute.
Many interests are involved in this
suit, aside from the legal questions.
and 1T is probable the parties in inter.
est will carry the controversy to the
supreme court for final adjudication.

acre farm in Logan township, which

a life interest, was sought. More than

which was willed to her with the pro-
vision that at her death it would go
to her children, If she was survived by
any. Mrs. Walker died without issue,
but her husband, David Walker, who
had been previously married, left a
large family, who were to inherit the
farm provided Mrs. Walker had no
children. Before their death, however,
Mr.. and Mrs. Walker sold the farm,
and during the intervening years it has
passed unquestioned to the ownership
of several For more than ten years
Guntha Pishel has held undisputed
ownership. and possession. The pres
ent suit was brought by the heirs Of
David Walker. These heirs are Mrs.

Cora E. Walker, Homer Walker, Fran

there would be no question as to the

reception room of the governor OF
Texas in 1861, when Houston, then an
old man, is deposed and his lieuten-
ant governor takes his office.
The company included all that was
desirable. Albert G. Henderson APP
peared in the role of Felix Hutton, the
seditious general, and was strong in

second Mrs. Houston, most acceptably,
while Marie Taylor in the role of
Roaring Kate" depicts the character
of the self-reliant frontier woman in a
manner that won the approval of thu
audience. All of the other roles We're
presented in uniformly satisfactory

Not with drugs, but with a rein
forcement of digestive agents, such as
are naturally at work in the stomach!
Scientific analysis shows that dlgestlon
requires pepsin, nitrogenous ferments,
and the secretion of hydrochlor1s aclu.
When your food fails to digest, 1t IS
proof positive that some of these
agents are lacking in your digestive
apparatus.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets contain
nothing but these naturall elements
necessary to digestion and when placed
at work in the weak stomach and
small intestines, supply what these Or
gans need. They stimulate the gastric
glands and gradually bring the diges-
tive organs back to their normal con-
dition.
stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets have been
subjected to critical chemical tests at
home and abroad and are found to
contain sothing but natural digestives.

foods, because they are thoroughly re-
