 case was taken 10 the supreme court
 on a writ of probable cause. and that body has not vet taken action.
 The lettt of the condemned man
 states that he feels that he should not
 be further punished. that he did what he thought at the time he had to do and that he has suffered continuously for fifteen months with rheumatism. dur ing his close confinement and k at this time in pain.

 witness sought to get Davis in the penitentiary.

 he had not been ably defended. and
 that if his case had been properly pre- scented he would now be a free man.
 He said further. that the district at tornay had intimated his willingness tn secure a communication of sentence to

DoYouEnjoyYour Meals?
One Of the Most Important Questions to Consider in the Search for
 Happiness and Health

The burning question to you is. Are you getting out of life all the pleasure and the health you are entitled to2'' If not. why not?
 No matter whether every organ and member of your body is in sound state of health and strength. if your stomach is in any way disordered. you are not going to be worried, Out-of sorts. nervous or sullen individual. whose actions will reflect your condi- ton inside, and people will naturally avoid you. f..
 The world wants to smile and be cheerful. and unless you are cheerful and smile. at least. occasionally. you wul have a few friends. fewer oppor- tunities. no success. and you will go down in defeat-defeated by dyspepsia and a bad stomach.
 A good and thorough digestion has a quick wondeESul reaction upon the brain. You must have noticed it many times. for the brain and stomach are as intimately connected as a needle and its thread. one can hardly be used to advantage without the other. If your stomach is slow and lazy in diSesting your food. it will produce at once a slow. lazy and cloudy influence upon your brain. Mark it. If your stomach has absolutely quit work. and fermentation is poisoning your yitals as a result. surely your brain is going to be sluggish and cOrrespondingly de- pressed. No one need tell you that
 But why continue to suffer all the miseries and torments that a disOr dered stomach brings you2
 If your stomach cannot digest your food, what wiu? Where's the relief? Where's the cure?
 Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets are the relief and the cure. Why? Because, as all stomach troubles arise from in digestion and because one ingredient Of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets is able to thoroughly and completely digest 5000 grains of any kind of food. doesn't it stand to reason that these little Dyspepsia Tablets are going to digest all the food and whatever food you put into your stomach Science nowadays can digest food without having to use the stomach for it. And Siuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are the re- suit of this scientific discovery. They digest and digest thoroughly and well. anything and everything you eat
 Sc. if your stomach refuses to work or cant work. and you suffer from eructations. bloat brash. fermentation biliousness. indigestion. or dyspepsia of whatever form. just take one or two of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets and see the difference II doesn't cost you much to prove it. Then you can eat all you want what you want whenever you want. if you use these tablets. and you can look the whole world in the face with a beaming eye and you will have a cheerful spirit q pleasant face. a vigorous body and a clear mind and memory and every thing will look and taste delicious to you. That's life.
