The first ambition OF Robert W. Chambers

Lovers Monthly, which makes the account

to Paris to study at the Ecole des BeduE

accepted at the Salon and he returned to

The prize essay OF the Literary World ex-
planning the causes OF Thomas Hardy's
popularity written by Miss ME- Willcocks.
emphasizes Hardy's sympathy with hum
BILE characters and his recognition Of the
significance OF little things In bringing
about important issues as among the peou-
~liarities upon which his popularity Is based.
Looking at the long list OF characters in
his books she says, -one thing Is clear of
all OF them, that their creator Possesses
the power OF finding the complex in the APP
parently simple, the subtle in the very
elements Of human nature. To the mind OF
a Pope or a Fielding, Hodge eating bacon
under a hedge was just-Hodge sufficiently
explained by a mere name. To a Hardy.
Hodges actions are as complex as those OF
a toWnsman and his speech infinitely more
nervous, his thought more sinewy. Now,
one great mark of the deeper current
thought to-day Is this same tendency to
note the doings OF the wayfaring man and
even to suspect that, as in the days of
Chaucer, Piers PlowmAn knows a few OF
the truths that bishops and peers have
forgotten"

''Blindfolded' simply cannot be COM

finished reading it I started right in to read

1t is a strange mix-up Of dual identity.

WHAT DO YOU CARE?
YOU'VE GOT YOUR HEALTH.
Great Natures do Not Despair at Dis
appoiirment-They Look For
Something Else to DO.

The broadgauged man of today
does not get blue just because
things don't always come his way
unless there is something the mat
ter with him. If he falls down"
on one proposition he Immediately
starts to look up another. He al
ways looks forward and keeps on
hustling. A man with his health
and faculties has plenty of opportu-
mites and the man who gives up or
even feels like it has either a small
nature or some physical weakness.
Dyspepsia certainly puts the best
of men out of condition for work OF
any kind. You cannot blame the
dyspeptic for getting blue. The very
nature of his disease is most depress-
ing and calculated to deprive him o.
ambition, energy and hope. There is
hope for him, however, certain and
sure.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are rec
ognized throughou. the length ami
breadth of the land as the one cure
that's safe and sure. Their unbound-
ed popularity-resul:;n from the
thousands and thousands of cures
they have effected, prove beyond the
shadow of a doubt their greatness as
sure. Wherein lies their great
ness? In the very fact that they are
Natures own simple remedy. They
do the exact work in exactly the
same way that the digestive fluids
of the stomach do because they are
composed of exactly the same ele-
ments and possess the same proper
ties. They relieve the weak anu
worn out stomach of its burden Of
digestion and permit it without let
or hindrance to rest and grow sound
and we'll. The stomach will get well
quick enough in its own natural wa
if It is let alone That is what Stu
arts Dyspepsia Tablets do. They
not only let it alone themselves but
make the food taken into the stom-
ach do the same.
You can satisfy yourself of the
truth of this statement by putting
the food you would eat into a glass
jar with sufficient water and one OF
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets. The
process of digestion will be taken up
and carried out just as the gastric
juice and other digestive fluids
would do it. Their action is natur-
al and they cause no disturbance in
the digestive organs. In fact you
forget you have a stomach when they
begin to do their work, so mild and
natural Is the operation. Stuart's
Dyspepsia Tablets are for sale by al
