Stomach Sufferer
Squanders Millions
In Search Of Relief.

The world is full of disordered stom-
achs and 90 per cent of the money spent
upon physicians and drugs goes in an at
tempt to cure the stomach.
People are made to believe that in or
der to gain health they must doctor their
stomachs and use cathartics. So the doe
tor gets his fee for the stomach treat
ment and the druggist for the physic.
until the savings of a lifetime are ex-
hausted and yet no cure.
Let's be reasonable
The sick stomach is in every case the
result of oVer-eating, hurried mastica-
tion and improper choice of foods. The
mucous lining all the way down the food
tract loses its sensitiveness, and when
food is forced down the muscles fail TO
respond They do not churn the food as
they should. The glands no longer give
out gastric juice to dissolve the food and
render it capable of assimilation. The
man has become a dyspeptic.
There is one sure way and only one to
bring positive -elief. Put into that stom-
ach of yours the very elements that it
lacks TO get that food into liquid form.
1t takes pepsin. dlastase, golden seal and
other fernents to accomplish this. The
healthy stomach contains these elements.
The dyspeptic stomach lacks part or all
of them. Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablet is
made up of just what the dyspeptic stom-
ach lacks-nature's digestives.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are not a
medicine. not drug. not a cathartic.
They do not cure anybody of anything
but Dyspepsia and Indigestion and such
ailments as arise from poorly digested
food
While they digest the food the stomach
recuperstes. The mucous membrane is
coming out of its stupor, the gastric juice
Is coming to the surface. the muscles are
regaining their power Every organ OF
the BODY takes on new life, the skin gains
color. and the eyes are no longer tinged
with yellow You live.

Some Things He Did Not Know.

At the afternoon session Mr. SchlaCks
resumed the stand. He said he did not
know whether or not any of the oil COM
panies at Florence were connected with

pany and the Pleasant Valley Coal COM
lanv were Identical the witness stated
that the railroad company did not direct

record of the purchase OF coal lands. he
said. were kept in Utah The auditor
of the fuel company had testified in Salt
Lake that the records were kept in Den
Ver. and counsel brought this discrepancy
10 the attention of the witness and Mr.
Schlacks said then he did not know where
the records were kept.
There was clash of counsel over a
question put TO the witness by the cOun-
sci for the government who demanded to
know how much money had been paid
for coal lands by the Utah Fuel company
and the Pleasant Valley company. The
commissioner sustained the objection
made by Joef F. Vail. counsel for the
Denver & Rio Grande Railroad company.
Mr. Welborn of the Colorado Fuel &,
Iron company was recalled and he pro-
duced a list of directors of the company
and of the Colorado & Wyoming railroad.
The lists showed that only one man was
a director in both companies. Mr.. Wei
born also produced a memorandum of
agreement signed in 1903 between the
Santa Fe. the Colorado 6, Southern and
