From Chicken-Pox to Cholera
Cure. AIS No Longer Tolerated

In early days every barber shop was an operating room. and the town physi- elan resorted to bleeding as the sure cure for all ailments from chicken-pox to cholera. As a result, many, in- cluding our first President, died pre- maturely.
 The present low rate of mortality is due in large measure to the ad- Wances made in medical science and the knowledge of the specific treat ment needed for each disease known.
 There is no disease more common among American and English people than dyspepsia. So prevalent has it become that thousands suffer with it half unconsciously, consider the syInp- toms as natural to their physical con- stitution and resign themselves to liv- ing on in that condition.
 There is a remedy for dyspepsia, and only one, recommended and endorsed generally by physicians: Stuart's Dys- pepsia Tablets have stood the test of years of use by millions of sufferers, have been subjected to governmental analyses in Europe and America and alone have been found to contain the elements which Nature has put into the stomach for igestion-pepsin, di- | astase and other ferments. Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets relieve the stomach and bowels in perfectly natural way by helping them do their work. If the stomach Is weak in gas- tric juice, Stuart's Tablets make up the deficiency. If the muscles are in active, Stuart's Tablets invigorate them. Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets di- ,gest every form of food entering the stomach, one grain of the active prin- ciple of these Tablets beng capable of digesting 5000 grains of meat, eggs and other foods. They are not cathar- tic pills;-their action is simply that of a digestive.
 stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets cure nothing but dyspepsia, waterbrash, sour stomach and kindred ailments re- sulting from the imperfect digestion of food, but these diseases they posi- lively cure.
 We will gladly send you trial package to prove the truth of our claims. stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets can be gotten of all druggists at 50 cents. F. A. Stuart Co.,, 69 Stuart Bldg, Mar shaE Mich.

"FANTANA' AT THE HYPERION.

Latest Revival of Phenomenal Music
 al Success Opens Two Night En-
 gagement.
 . The road company revival of Fan tana," which M H, Myers brought to the Hyperion last night, brought out very fair audience, all things con- sidered, including the weather. You remember 'Fantana" of course; one of the great half-dozen Oriental musi- cal comedies that monopolized the comic opera stage with such sensation al success a few years ago. Well, it seems that "Fantana" has outlasted ali of them, and from the reception 1t got last night nobody can tell h3x much longer it is going to be oroduc- CT. The dear old melodies of yore, "The Farewell Waltz" Darby and Joan" My Word" You're Just My Style" and the others-were very kindly received, and seemed to awaken tender "reminiscences of times long gone by in the breasts of a sympathet- ic audience.
 Georgia Bryton did very satisfactory work as Jessie, the maid, the part that Katie Barry played so wonder fully well on the first appearance of the production. Her running mate was Hawkins, the valet, role which Will liam Blaisdell made the most he could out of. MT. Blaisdell introduced much Imaginable stage business into his part, which the audience applauded gener- ously. Mae Sotte was mighty good looking Fantana, and as such made a biz dent in the hearts of the bald headed row before she got through.
 There will be another production of "Fantana' tonight at the Hyperion, and if you've got loose evening you can spend it very pleasantly with the old favorite.

STARTING IN LIFE.

No young man who desires to
succeed in business has any time
to lose in shuf1ing about in ex
perimental clerkship; and after
finishing his school education the
sooner he makes choice of his bust
ness for life and sets himself at
work to learn and become sue
cessfully established, the better.
No young man can afford to
make mistake in his choice of
occupation; the first choice should
be the true one. For this reason
we would say to young man in re-
gard to routine clerkship, by no
means accept place of that kind
not even if the salary is large: it
may seem large at first, but there
can be no compensation to a
young man for the loss of time.
Indeed, we are of the opinion that
a young man, at the start, had
better work for nothing, or even
pay for the privilege of going in
to an establishment where he can
learn a good business, than to
take an ordinary clerkship at any
price.

Tobacco trust, by keeping prices
up, prevented thousands of wom-

took just that much more money
from husbands who would other
wise hand it over for stockings

SUPPORT HOME NEWSPAPERS.

The country newspaper is q
power in the land. It's place can
never be filled by the big daily
papers or the bulky magazines or
agricultural journals. 1t fills a
field entirely it's own. 1t is the
barometer of the place in which
it is published. It's news pages
represent the life of the people,
and its advertising pages should
reflect the business activity Of
the town. 1t is the duty of ev-
cry good citizen to give his sup
port to the local press. Partic-
ularly the business man should
patronize it with a view to bet
tering his trade. 1t is not mon
ey wasted to use advertising
space in it. One good merchant
in the town who understands
how to advertise rightly, can
bring trade to the town that will
help every other business man,in
it. But all should do their part,
and the storekeeper who does not
give his home paper the support
it merits is not the wisest kind
of a business man.

Nothing of the sort. We know he
is alright, and that when he does
come home we will know all about
it and get it straight. We don't
have to ask him where he is gos
ing and how long he will be gone
every time he leaves the house.
We don't have to call him back
and make him "solemnly promise"
the same thing over and over or
three times. When he says,

A NOTEWORTHY BANQUET.

The great packing house mag
mates of the West had a banquet
the other day. Men worth mill
ions sat down to tables laden
with costliest luxuries. They
ate and drank and discussed how
they might be able to conduct
their business without govern
. ment interference. According to
wspaperlreports, however, not
one word was said about reduc-
ing the price of beef, yet that
banquet cost $40, 900.
Perhaps it would be expecting
too much on an occasion of this
kind, when men conscious of the
power that wealth gives them,
get together and feast on the fat
of the land, for them to remem-
Der that such power represents
the hard earned money of the
men and women of this country.
Perhaps it would be too much to
expect them to consider ways
and means by which they would
be able to knock off even a half
cent a pound from the price of
beef, a necessity in every work
ing mans household. They were
on the defensive. They had
been placed there by public clam
or against exorbitant prices.
They were devising ways and
means how to prevent govern
ment suits from being decided |
against them, They had no time
for any thing else.
And yet the solution of the
whole problem so far as these
men are concerned lies in honest
ly conducting their business and
asking only a fair price for their
products. This is all that the
governments desires to compel
There would be no compulsion
about it if competitive conditions
existed as they ought to in the
business in which they are en-
gagged. 1t is the sitting of CON-
petition to exact more profit that
has caused all the trouble.
