LARGE BET
Two Iowa Physicians Wager
$4,000 on Consump-
ton Cure
Comments by Philadelphia Spec.
iaIist

Fort Dodge, Iowa.-PhysicianS in this
section and throughout the United States
are watching with much interest the con-
troversy between DIR. j. w. Kline and DR..
T. II. Lindley. $4,000 is involved on a
wager as to the most efficacious treatment
for consumption. Dr. Kline, who is q
well known authority on many medical
questions and member of the state board
of health, maintains that no drug can
cure the disease, but believes in the open
air exclusively While DR.. Lindley of
Cedar Rapids, a doctor of equal promi-
nence. takes the stand in favor of a
drug specific and discredits the value of
the open air method Patients of about the
same vitality have been selected and the
tests are now under way.
Commenting on this wager renowned
specialist of the Philadelphia Clinic states
that the most effective treatment so far
attained is the combination of both fresh
air and certain drugs.
This was amply demonstrated in the
experimental camps in the pine forests
of Maine, where so many remarkable
cures were made. He also states that this
treatment can be followed out by any
patient in their own home If they will
adhere to it persistently.
Plenty of outdoor exercise and at all
times breathing very deeply in order
to force the air into all parts of the
lungs. This will soon become a habit and
the medicine that was used is pine. the
greatest stimulant known for the mucuos
membrane and pulmonary organs.
For this purpose get the Concentrated
oil of pine, mix one-half ounce with
half pint of good whisky and add two
ounces Of glycerine. This must be well
shaken and used in tablespoon doses
every four hours.
The Concentrated oil of pine can he
obtained at any prescription druggists,
but care should be taken not to get the
limitations. The real article always comes

Food Poisons
90 Per Cent of All Diseases the Result
of Undigested PURIFYING Foods.

Men of affairs, women of society and
children with active brains are too often
sedentary in their habits, giving little
time to exercise To this evil Is added that
of high and irregular living-as a result.
the stomach cannot stand the demands
made upon it. The abused and overtaxed
stomach does not properly do the work of
digestion, food taken in ferments and the
poison permeates the whole system. The
body loses in weight and becomes prey
for the attack of whatever disease 1t may
encounter.
Did 1t ever occur to you how busy that
stomach of yours is? 1t only holds three
pints, but in one year you force 1t to take
in 24o0 pounds of material, digest it and
prepare 1t for assimilation into the blood
No wonder it rebels when overworlsed.
We crowd 1t with steaks and pastry, irri-
tate it's juices with spices and acids. and
expect the stomach to do its work. 1t
can't do it.
All over tie inner layer of the stom-
ach are glands which secrete the juices
necessary to digestion, The entrance of
food into the stomach is the signal for
these glands to do their work. The more
the food and the more indigestible. the
greater the demand upon them and upon
the muscles of the wall adjoining.
Think of the tons of high-sea soned
game. sweetmeats and appetizers
crammed into this little four-ounce mill
and then wonder. if you will, why you
are dizzy or nauseated or constipated
Don't blame your stomach or curse your
fate that you should be born so unfor-
tunate. Blame yourself and apply the
remedy
First get a small package of Stuart
Dyspepsia Tablets, taking one after each
meal and at bed time. They are not
medicine, but digestive. Your stomach
Is worn out and needs help, not medicine
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets will do the
work that the stomach fails to do. There S
enough power in one grain of Stuart's
Dyspepsia Tablets to digest 5000 grains
of ordinary food, so you needn't fear
that anything you eat will remain in your
stomach undgested.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets will rout
the poison because they remove the
cause-food fermentation. They are ma
lures own cure for dyspepsia. The host
of troubles dyspepsia is father of cannot
be numbered for n healthy stomach Is
the source of all health

ditions confront you. Send today for n

Tablets. They will bring your stomach re-

Labor Is Scarce.

cotton planters in portions of Lime
stone and other counties in this part of
the state are complaining of the scarcity
or labor just now. Some of these plant
ers say that on account of the lack of
hands they will be compelled to let much
of their land lie idle this season.
Many of the negroes have left the plan
tations and engaged in public works.
Many others have moved away to the
states of Mississippi, Louisiana and Ar
kansas For these reasons the question
of farm labor Is becoming to be a seri-
Gus one in some portions of North Ala
bama. If labor cannot be imported from
other places much of the land here will
have to lie idle.
