variety of ways-beching. burning sen- sation. an empty feeling in the stomach, bloating after eating brash, aversion to food, fermentation, or downright indiges- ton.
 There are few diseases which create such misery--long drawn out misery-as dyspepsia. It purspes you before meals after meals. and between meals; you take it to bed with you; 1t is with you at the theatre and at your desk.
 What is the only way to get rid of it?
 You don't have to stop eating. you don't have to diet. Just take something that will do the work of the stomach and let the stomach take a rest.
 Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets are the most wonderful little tablets on earth for this very thing.
 In plain arithmetic, 1 of Stuarts Dys- pepsia Tablets equals 1 good strong stomach for 1 time for 1 good hearty meal. One ingredient of Stuarts Dys- pepsia Tablets will digest perfectly 5000 grains of food in just the same way that a strong, robust, healthy stomach would do it.
 Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets enrich and increase the gastric juice in your stom- ach and that is mostly what you need more and better gastric juice. And it gives the stomach rest, good long rest. In the meantime it cures the dys- pepsla, and all other stomach troubles.
 Just a few of Stuarts Dyspepsia Tab lets will prove to you what these little cherubs of health and happiness can do.
 Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are for sale at all druggists at 50c box.

Eye Witnesses Testify.

Coroner Paris was immediately called and an inquest was held. Ray and sev- eral witnesses testified to the facts as stated, and the verdict was to the effect that the homicide was justifiable. One ne- gro, T. o. J. Booker, testified that the officer walked up and hit the negro over the head with his club and that the negro threw his arm backward naturally in warding off another blow. However, the fact that 3s calibre gun was found on him was deemed conclusive.
 He was the same half-witted fellow who wrote several letters to President Roose- welt and Governor Conner, asking for cer- tain privileges. He is well known over the district.
