WEAVER STEPS OUT.
Republicans Again Take Control in
Philadelphia.

Philadelphia, April John Weav-
er today completed his four years as
mayor of Philadelphia, a term that
was as stormy as any administration
in the city's history. He was succeed
ed at noon by John T. Reyburn, who
resigned his seat in congress
With the expiration of Mayor Weav-
ers' term the Republican organization
which was in complete control of mu-
nicipal affairs until two years ago
when it was defeated in a memorable
fight over the leasing of the gas works.
again comes into full power.
Mayor Reyburn was elected on a
straight party ticket and the members
of his cabinet are strict party men.
Both branches of the city council re-
organized by electing as their presid-
ing officers and other employees men
who are prominently identified with
the Republican organization. The
minority represented by the city party,
the reform organization which fought
the regular Republicans, is stronger,
however than it has been in years, but
not enough so to control direct legis-
lation.
Former Mayor Weaver will retire
from politics and return to the prac-
tice of law.

A Voice From
The Stomach
A BioodIess Fight Between a Tablet
and a Habit-The Tablet Wins.

At the age of %. Clarence had good
digestion. He had gastric juice that
could dissolve doughnuts and turn
apple-skins into good blood corpuscles.
At the age of "a he began to be pro-
fuse about the waist and lean back
| wards. He also began to cultivate sew
| eral chins. In his new-found pride he
| began to think it his duty to gorge
himself on everything, the good and the
bad, for appetite feeds on appetite-and
! every good thing is abused.
His pictures showed that he took on
weight after he put his collar on.
At the age of &c Clarence married and
| went to boarding On top of all this,
he attended oyster suppers and wine
| dinners. which reduced the size of his
collar from 1871 to 15. With still abid-
ing faith in the strength of his stomach
| he gulped his meals, and chewed them
| afterwards.
| At the age of rs Clarence began to
| hear an inward voice-a waring from
| the stomach. After each meal, he would
feel bloated-and belehing became a
habit.
| He began to be a light eater-and a
heavy thinker. He tried to think out a
cure, for now he would sit down at his
meals absolutely Disguised at the
thought or sight of anything to eat
! He would sit down at his meals with
| out the trace of an appetite, just be-
cause it was time to eat.
| He would often feel gnawing, unsat-
/ SCOm-
ach, even after he was through eating
whether his meal was well cooked or
\ not.
And he suffered a good many other
| things with his stomach that he could
not explain, but that made him grOuchy
miserable out-o'-sorts and generally
sour on everybody and everything.
Finally he read an account, some
| thing like this, about the truly wonder
| full results obtained from Stuart's Dys-
hi ntG in oil r,r -.
| trouble dyspepsia and so on. He bought
a soc box at the drug store and took
the whole box. When he started, he
had little falkland less appetite. When
he finished he had absolute faith-and
more appetite, and more good cheer
Things begin to taste different and
better to him.
Now h. has no more dyspepsia. no
tite. brash, irritation, burning sensation,
heartburn, nauseau, quotations, bad
| memory. or loss of vim and vigor.
Remember, one ingredient of Stuart's
Dyspepsia Tablets will digest for you
5000 grains of food, just as it did for
Clarence.
This relieves your stomach of the
work of digesting until your stomach
can get strong and healthy again. Your
stomach has been overworked and
abused. It's tagged out. 1t needs a
rest.
Let Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets do the
work of your stomach. You will be sur
prtsed how fine you'll feel after eating,
and how lusciously good everything will
taste to you.
Heed the call of the stomach now!
There's a word of good cheer in one box
of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets-at any
drug store, soc.

IS sALTPETER INJURIOUS?
Commission to Test Contents i'm Cured
Meat Upon the Health.

Chicago, April IA dispatch to the
Record-Herald from Urbana, Ill, says;
ut is the plan of the commission
to make the most elaborate tests ever
made in the country to determine the
effect of the saltpeter contents of cured
meat upon the health" said President
James of the University of Illinois yes
terday in discussing the work of the
national food commission
THE work.. he added, lis under
taken at the solicitation of the pack
ers themselves, who have long wanted
to know whether or not saltpeter when
consumed in small quantities is in
furious.
at the University of Illinois under the
direct supervision of Professor Grind
ley of the university. A squad of
twenty men will be housed at club
room under the most favorable condi-
tions possible. Half of the men will
be fed meats cured in the ordinary
way and the others on exactly the same
diet, except that the meats will not
contain any saltpeter. A doctor will
examine the men daily. and their
weight and physical condition will be
carefully noted. The investiga lions
will extend over six months, and the
results will be accurate in every par
ticular.
1.-THE men composing the commits
sion are the most noted in the coun-
try They will direct the work and
their presence on the commission in
sures that the results achieved will be
final. The work is of great Importance.
Owing to the immense amount of cured
meats consumed in the country it is
imperative that the people know of
the injurious or non-injurious use of
saltpeter.''
AS soon as the saltpeter investiga-
ton is finished other important work
in connection with nutritive problems
will be undertaken.

PIN IN THE APPENDIX.
1t Had Reposed in Mrs. RaIihan's
Body -Four. Years.

An operation was performed at
Christ hospital on Sunday which is
pulling the surgeons. Mrs. Ralihan,
a young married woman from Mime
apolis, was brought to the hospital
Saturday suffering with a well de-
veloped case of appendicitis. Sunday
morning an operation was performed
by DIR. w. F. Bowen and DIR. Otto
Kiene and the appendix was re-
moved. Then it was found that the
trouble was due to a large black
into the appendix, it being so long
that the point protruded into the in
testine.
Four years ago Mrs. Ralihan swaI-
lowed a black headed pin and until
the attack of appendicitis from which
she was suffering when brought to the
hospital she has experienced no in
convenience from her unnatural diet.
The surgeons are at a loss to know
where the pin has been during the
four years. 1t seems impossible that it
should have been in the appendix all
this time. 1t is certain that the at
tack of appendicitis was caused by the
irritation from the pin but the doctors
do not understand why the patient has
never before suffered from the effects
of the foreign substance in the ap-
pendix-
Mrs. Ralihan came though the
operation in excellent condition and
there is little doubt of her complete re-
covery. The house physician says that
she is already practically out Of
danger.
The case is a rare one. 1t is seldom
that any foreign substance is found in
the appendix and the fact that the pin
may have been lodged in the delicate
and useless organism for months or
even years makes the case especially
interesting to medical men.
