Catarrh of the Stomach.
A Pleasant, Simple, But Safe and
Effectual Cure for It.
COSTS NOTHING TO TRY.

Catarrh of the stomach has long been considered
the next thing to incurable. The usual symptoms
are full or bloating sensation after eating,
companied sometimes with sour watery rlsings,
formation Of gases, causing pressure on the heart
and lungs and difficult breathing, headaches, tickle
appetite, nervousness and a general played-out,
langufd feeling.
There is often foul taste In the mouth, coated
tongue and II the interior Of the stomach could be
seen 1t would show a Shiny, infiamed condition
The cure for this common and obstinate trouble is
found In a treatment which causes the food to be
readily thoroughly digested before it has time to
ferment and irritate the delicate mucous surfaces
of the stomach. To secure prompt and healthy
digestion is the one necessary thing to do, and
when normal digestion is secured the catarrhal con-
dition will have disappeared.
According to DR.. Harlanson, the safest and best
treatment is to after each meal a tablet com
posed of Diastase, Aseptic Pepsin. a little Nux.
Golden Seal and fruit acids. These tablets can
now be found at all drug stores under the name of
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets and not being a patent
medicine, can be used with perfect safety and as.
surance that healthy appetite and thorough diges-
ton will follow their regular use after meals.
Mr. R. S. Workman. Chicago. Ills, writes: Ca
tarrh is local condition resulting from neglected
cold in the head, whereby the lining membrane Of
the nose becomes infamed Ind the poisonous dis
charge therefrom, passing backward into the

Dear Mr.. Davidson:
You are hereby appointed as my dis
tributing agent for Phoenix and all the
country around there. You kept such
a nice variety of presents last year
and so many little boys and girls be-
sides big men and women were pleased
with the presents bought at your store
that l have decided to appoint you
again as my chief distributing agent.
There are some little boys and girls
in and around Phoenix who haven't
been as good as they ought TO have
been. They haven't always minded
their parents or teacher as they should
nave done. They haven't been as good
and kind to other little boys and girls
as they ought to have been. But l
have decided to send them presents
just the same, as l cannot find it in
my heart to disappoint the little boys
and girls just because they forgot to
do the right thing always
hope that every little boy and girl
will do their best to be better the COM
ing year. That no boy in Phoenix viii
tell a lie or steal or do a mean thing
And that every little girl will be good
and sweet and kind to her mother and
teacher and piaymates. Now, Mr..
Davidson, when the papas and
mammas visit your store, want you
to show them toys for little boys and
girls, also presents for mamma and
papa. l have left you good big lot
of presents and every one ought to be
suited.
Give my love to the little boys and
girls of Arizona and tell them | am

ENDLESS PRAYER CHAIN
 INSANITY'S NEW FORM
Another CranK's Notion of Distribu.
 ting Spirituality.

Some religious lunatic has devised the endless prayer chain" and has opened correspondence with residents proclivities. The letters contain the form of a prayer which the writer says was prepared by Bishop Lawrence who recommended the forging of the endless prayer chain. Though the prayer was apparently intended for the ears of the Most High as all Chris tian prayers are. this one is to be sent to nine persons and by each of them to another nine and so on presumably until the population of the whole world shall be in receipt of it.
 The writer appeals to the terror of the recipients. If they do not forward the paper it will be the worse for them. He writes: He who will not say it will be afflicted by some mis- fortune. One person who paid no at tention to it met with a dreadful acci- dent. He who will rew-.te this prayer and distribute it to nine other persons commencing on the day it is received. and sending only one each day will on or after the ninth day experience great joy. At Jerusalem during the Holy Feast it was said he who will rewrite this prayer will be delivered from every calamity. Please do not break the chain"
 So far as known the chain has not been broken in Phoenix. yet there Is no evidence that it has been percepti- bly heightened.
