Such men are usually high flyers, hard workers mentally, living under high pressure and high draught and 1t doesn't take great deal to disor- der the stomach or render the liver torpid,
 They should make 1t a practice to use some tried and reliable remedy, like Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets, that will aid Nature, and not force it, and will take care of the sudden attacks of acute indigestion.
 ' The use of these tablets is not to be confounded with the patent medicine habit. Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are not a patent medicine, but are com posed of the Very elements which Ma ture provides the healthy stomach to do the work of igestion-pepsin diastase, golden seal, etc. There is no secret in their preparation-they are absolutely pure and therefore all the world uses them,
 No matter how disordered the stom- ach may be, it will right itself if given the chance. Stuart's Dyspepsia Tab lets digest food where the stomach can't, give the abused stomach and intestines a rest, and offer renewed strength to the worn-out glands and muscles.
 Brain workers can rely on Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets, no matter how tense the strain. All druggists carry them in the fifty-cent packages, or if fy1 be had by sending your name and ad- dress to-day F. A. Stuart Company 150 Stuart Building, Marshall, Mich.

ALABAMA RATES ARE
 VERY REASONABLE
RAILROAD COMMISSIONER KIN. CANNON OF MISSISSIPPI SAYS RAILROADS HAVE A NO KICK ON NEW LAW.

Jackson, Miss. November 6--(spe- oiaL) L)-Railroad Commissioner Kincan-
 non, whose home is at Tupelo, and who
 is here to attend the regular session
 of the commission, has been very
 greatly interested in the fight that is
 being made in Alabama between the
 governor and the railroads, and is
 amused at some of the claims made by
 Governor Conner to the effect that the
 freight rate he proposes to give his
 people is good one for them, and
 taken a whole, MT. Kincannon does
 not see what the railroads doing busi-
 ness in Alabama have to kick about. He declares that the rates submitted in Alabama are considerably higher and better from a railroad point of view than the rates that have per tained in Mississippi for several years. MT. kincannon does not guess at this, but has the facts and the figures ready at hand in printed copies of the Ala bama rates.
 For instance" says MT. Kincannon, take the item of hay raised in the state. Under the Alabama rate 1t
 would cost the farmer to ship a car load from my town, Tupelo, to Jack son, via Meridian, making about 150 miles haul, $3S 40 Under the Missis- sippi rate the car load would cost the shipper just s25 even.
 ''The Alabama rate on a car load of flour Is 1713 cents per barrett the Mis- sissippi rate on the same is 16 cents per barrel
 Take corn. The Alabama rate from one point to anoth in the state is nearly double what it is in this state. In Alabama it would cost $56 to haul a car load of corn from Tupelo to Jack son, whereas under the Mississippi rate of 121a cents per 100 pounds, the car load would cost only $30." MT Kincannon declares that thu Ala
 bama rate of fertilizers is exactly the
 same as the Mississippi rate, and has
 an idea that Alabama just copied the Mississippi rate. which Is good and a cheap one.
 He admits that on some commodities. for short hauls, the Alabama rate is cheaper than in Mississippi. but de- clares that on the great bulk of pro ducts of the farm, such as molasses, potatoes, etc, Mississippi is great deal cheaper.
