Food Poisons
so Per Cent of All Diseases the Re-
suit of Undigested Putre-
fying 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 hving--as
result, the stomach cannot stand the de-
mands made upon it. The abused and
overtaxed stomach does not properly do
the work of digestion, food taken in fer
ments and the poison permeates the
whole system. The body loses in weight
and becomes a prey for the attack OF
whatever diseas' it may encounter.
Did ii ever occur to you how busy that
stomach of yours is? 1t only holds three
pints, but in one year you force it to
take in 24eO pounds of material, digest
il and prepare it for assimilation into the
blood. No wonder il rebels when over
worked. We crowd it with steaks and
pastry, irritate its juices with spices and
acids, and expect the stomach to do its
work. 1t can't do il.
All over the inner layer of the stomach
are glands which secrete the juices nee
essary 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-seasoned
game, sWeetmeats and appetzers
crammed into this little four-ounre 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 small package of Stuart s
Dyspepsia Tablets. taking one after each
meal and at bed time. They are not a
medicine, but a digestive. Your stomach
is worn out and needs help. not medicine
Stuarts 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 undigested.

that there had been bank robbery

that there had been bank robbery
The thieves got 5000" they declared.
They explained that they had been work
ing iii the hayfields near Layton but mad
tired of pitching the alfalfa
Last night Debert Ellison and Ben Flint
came to Salt Lake from Layton for the
purpose of identifying the men as two
suspected persons who had suddenly left
Layton yesterday morning Mr.. Ellison
is manager of the Ellison estate. On
Wednesday, he said, two men worked for
him pitching hay. In the evening they
drew what was coming to them, saying
that they wished TO spend the night at
Layton. 1t was arranged that they were
TO work the next day at the place OF
John Layton.
Where they spent the night is not clear.
But in the morning they did not appear
for work at the Layton place. Instead,
they took the Salt Lake and Ogden car
for Salt Lake.
Mr. Ellison identified Harrington and
Collins as the men who had worked for
him during Wednesday and had gone to
town that night
The Ellison place is about one and a
half miles from Layton. The authorities
think that the bank burglars must have
spent the day preceding the robbery some
where in the vicinity of the town in a
place in which they would attract little
nightfall they could enter the town and
carry out their plans.
There is no evidence so far to connect
Harrington and Collins with the rob-
berry.
Deputy Sheriff ]. II. Birmingham ar
the two prisoners. He decided not to
take them back to Davis county until
he receives instructions to do so. They
were kept all night in the city jail.

SHARP ATTACK
On bONAPA RTE
Former Comptroller of Curren-
Cy Hits Roosevelt Over the
Head of Attorney General.

Chicago, Oct 24-Delegates to the ma
tional civic federation convention today
were eagerly discussing the remarks made
at the meeting of last night by Charles
G. Dawes, ex-comptroller of the cur
rency.
Mr. Dawes made a sharp attack upon
the federal department of justice. virtu-
ally charging the officers of the attor-
ney general with making gallery plays.
He said in part:
FaVoritism Charged.
81 cannot say that it is intentional on
the part of the department of justice. but
some of it's actions look remarkably as
if favoritism was being displayed in the
selection of the combinations to be in
vestigated and in the manner of attack.
TT is invariable that the man who does
things is in the public eye, and an at
tack upon him will always gain publicity.
1t is remarkable that the cases handled
by the department of justice always are
tried in the newspapers before they get
into the courts.
The speaker also criticized the magazine
writer. who, he said, made a practice
of attacking the men who accomplished
great things in the mercantile and finan-
cial world
