Distress After Eating
Do You Ever Feel as Though You Had Swallowed Brick
 Instead of n Meal?

That heavy, bloated, stuffed-up, lead-like feeling which you often eX- perience after eating a meal is posi- tive proof that something is wrong with your digestive organs They are becoming weak and Jagged out. There is lack of gastric and other digestive juices. The food is no long, CT properly digested and it forms a heavy load on your stomach, so that nearly every meal causes you misery and distress.
 If you are in this condition it means that you have dyspepsia in some form and may have had 1t for some time, though you didn't realize it.
 Now is the time to check it, for if you don't it will surely develop into worse forms of dyspepsia and other stomach troubles, which may have serious results.
 the hub of the body and an injury to it is an injury to all A weak stom- ach causes the whole body to suffer. The action of the heart, liver and kid- neys becomes sluggish The brain becomes inactive. The nerves be- come unstrung. The blood loses its vitality,
 The only safe, sure, scientific meth cd of restoring your stomach to it's healthy, normal state is to use Stu arts Dyspepsia Tablets which will act as a substitute in digesting your food, thus giving your stomach a much needed rest.
 Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets have stood the tests for years. Thousands have used them and been cured. Phy- sicians all over the United States rec ommend them. They are not a secret remedy. They contain fruit and veg etable essences, pure concentrated tinctures of hydrastis, golden seal, lactose, and pure aseptic pepsin. These combined ingredients will di- gest the coarsest kind of food and do the work just as well as Aany good, strong, healthy stomach will.
 Don't take our word for it. Ask your physician, your druggist or any of your friends who may have used Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets. But you don't even have to take their word for it. Find out for yourself. Send for free sample package and tfy them. That's the surest way to learn the truth. Then, if you are satisfied, you can go to your nearest druggist and get fifty-eent box.

ONE MAN PLEADS GUILTY

 lie Service Corporations.

Boston, Oct. 1.-In the belief that the statute passed by the legislature of 1908 forbidding the soliciting of positions in public service corporations by public officials has been violated, the Suffolk county grand jury has indicted two state senators, two members of the legislature and two aldermen of this city.

 All of the men but Bromberg pleaded not guilty when arraigned and were released on $l000 bail each. Senator Bromberg asked to be allowed to plead after he had read the indictment. His offense is said to have been committed while he was a member of the board of aldermen last year. The statute pros vides for a punishment of q fine of not less than $50 nor more than $100. The grand jury has been Investigating the charges of soliciting by city and state officials for more than a week and the indictments were reported yesterday but not made public until to-day.

END SEEMS ID BE IN SIGH NEW HAVEN'S BIG OUTLAWS The Company's Funds-Great Success of Financing
 Operations.

According to official figures obtain ed by the Boston News Bureau, the cash requirements of the New Haven road, called for by its present tinan- cial program, which will be completed during the next two years or so amount to about $42,0OO, 900, as fol- lows:
 Kew equipment ......... $22,S2T,07 General improvement on the
 New Haven, it's leased
 lines, steamship company,
 etc .. .................$18,914,S14 S14 Total .. .............$42 $42,241,687
 It should be pointed out that of these expenditures, the New Haven will be reimbursed by it's subsidiaries to the amount of approximately S10,- 100000.
 In a nutshell and in round figures the New Haven has substantially s20,- 000,00O of cash on hand, including $S,000,000 due next month on ac- count of the French loan. About $41, 100000 is due on account of capit- al issues, making total cash resources of $61, 100000.
 Against this there will be a call for $42,000,O00 for various improvements and additions, leaving a net balance of nearly $19,000,Oo0.
 This Is the completion of finan- cial policy that has called for $200, 000,00O of cash.
 It Is an astonishing fact that the New Haven road could have been able to finance this enormous sum of money and meet the carrying charges upon 1t with the ease with which they have been met.
 It is all the most astonishing be- cause of the fact that large part of this expenditure has not yet begun to earn any money For instance. the $4.232, 900 which has been spent for electrifcation of the New York divi- sion has hardly yet begun to effect the economies and increased business it will ultimately result in. Similarly the six tracking of the Harlem river branch, upon which $7,000,000 has al- ready been spent, and $3,000,000 is yet to be spent, is not yet completed. This branch will be one of the very biggest earners of the entire New Ha- ven system and the economies which it's construction will effect should reach very large proportions.
 Similarly, the s4O,0O0,0 900 which has been or is being spent for new equip ment has not yet begun to earn any money.
 If New England is to prosper, or even to hold it's own, 1t is inevitable that the effect of this expenditure will be to increase very materially the gross receipts, and particularly the profits of New Haven road from now on.
