Do Your Meals Fit?
Do You Feel Snug and Comfortable Around Your Waist Line After
 Hearty Meal?

bid your last meal taste delicuusy good to you, and did you eat all yoa wanted? Could you have patted yonr rotundity in glee and felt proud of your appetite and of your good strong stop- ach? Do you feel rosy now because your last meal gave you no inconvenlence whatever? If not, you have dyspepsia in some form. and probably never realized it.
 If you have the least trouble in your stomach after eating, no matter how lit tie or how much you eat, there is trou- ble brewing and you must correct it at once.
 Most all stomach troubles come from poor, weak, scanty gastric juice, that precious liquid which ought to turn your food into rich, red blood.
 If you have nausea your gastric juice is weak II you have sour risings or belchngs. your food Is fermenting; your gastric juice is weak If you have loss of appetite, your gastric juice is weak. If you have a boaty feeling of aversion to food, your gastric juice is weak.
 You need something in your stomach to supply the gastric juice which is scanty, and to give power to the weak gastric juice. Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets do this very thing.
 Now thlnl-one grain of one of the in- gradients of these wonderful little tablets digests 5000 grains of food. They are several times more powerful than the gastric juice in a good strong, powerful stomach. They actually digest your food for you. Besides, they increase the flow of gastric juice, just what you need to get all the good possible out of every thing you eat You will never have that lump of lead" in your stomach nor any other stomach trouble after taking Stu arts Dyspepsia Tablets. Then everything you eat will be digested, it will give you strength, vim. energy and rosy disposi ton. You'll feel good all around your waist line after every meal and it will make you feel good all over.
 Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets will make you feel happy after eating a good, hearty meal. Take one or two after eating You'll feel fine-then your meals will iit no matter what or when you eat.
 We want to send you sample pack age of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets free of charge. so you can test them yourself and be convinced. After you have tried the sample you will be so satisfied that you will go to the nearest drug store and get a. 50c box.
 Send Us your name and address today and we will al once send you by mall t sample package free. Address r. A. Stu art Co.,, 150 Stuart Bldg. Marshall. Mich

cents and seemingly destined to go to IL the outlook for great majority of the new properties is about as bad as 1t can well be. Some of the older mines which have been favorites with the public Tor many years are becoming worked out and many of the new ones cannot pro- duce copper under 15 cents.
 On the other hand three or four new camps will come to the front by reason of ability to mine copper at cost not to exceed five or six cents pound in unlimited quantities. Great fields are be- ing opened in Alaska which belong to this class as well as those in Utah and Arl- zona. When the money situation loosens up there will probably develop a stupend- ous demand for copper at 15 cents or nn- der. There will be enough to go around on that basis.

 To say that the. bond market is rot ten" is putting it mildly. Anybody hay ing bonds to sell Is forced to make con- sessions amounting in many instances almost to a sacrifice The liquidation of q round lot of bonds, even the most active, results in a serious decline if done in open market, and at sickening recessions from quoted prices if by private sale. At the same time bankers are making it plain to everybody that come in contact with them that preparations should be made for hard times. These bankers are not mealy mouthed or hestating in gv- ing this advice and in inforclng it so far as lies in their power. Curtailment of loans Is progressing rapidly and the volume of indebtedness is being cut down. This situation applies with greater force in the east than in the west, where the pinch of approaching depression seems to be hardly felt as yet,
 There is no longer the slightest. pre- tense of a satisfactory incoming of new indus trial orders.

The industrial outlook is quoted confidentially in large ma iority of the industrial concerns as being forbidding If the great army of work ingmer are not yet alive to conditions 1t is time their eyes were being opened, for unless a change quickly occurs the tide will sweep them on the shores of idleness.
 It is possible that the actual arrival of hard times may be deferred until next spring. but in many of tho great manufacturing lines the birth of new year will witness the beginning of a 1f x-n.,l-y, nn a end of the country to the other.

 To the Editor of The Age-Herald:
 In view of the wide publicity given to recent correspondence between the Rev. Patrick T. Costello and Hon. N. c.

 In the opening paragraph of the Rev Costello's letter the statement is made that certain Catholic children have been punished for not preparing their Bibla work, etc. I shall hope to learn that this erroneous statement is due to mis- information on the part of the Rev.

The foregoing is the food upon which Wall street is now gorging itself. Ev- erybody in the financial district breathes gloom, eats gloom, talks gloom and goes to bed with gloom. It is with us continu- ously and we have learned to like it.. The bad feature of it is that gloom is liable to get worse before the light comes to brighten the prospect.
 Liquidation in stocks and bonds contin- ues day after day. and although there is steady absorption of securities the absorption is not sufficient to sustain prices. Students of the market are al- most a unit in saving that it does not develop a buying power.

a deep cut in the back of his head, the
body of John NJ Gibbs. a Marylan-
negro, who for some time has been en-

The coroner was notified after which
the corpse was brought to this city and

There is no suspicion of foul play in

have fallen into the creek ten feet be-
meath the bridge. where he foundered
about for some time, cutting himself
against the sharp stones many of
