Do You Enjoy Your Meals?
One of the Most Important Questions to Consider in the Search Tor
 Happiness and Health.

The burning question to you, IS, Are you getting out of life all the pleasure and the health you are en- titled to?" If not, why not? No matter whether every organ and member of your body is in a sound state of health and strength, if your stomach is in any way disordeTed you are not going to be yourself. You are going to be a worried, out-of-sorts, nervous or sullen individual whose ac- tions will reflect your condition inside, and people will naturally avoid you,
 The world wants to smile and be cheerful. and unless you are cheerful and smile, at least, occasionally, you will have few friends, fewer opportu- mites, no successes, and you will go down in defeat-defeated by dyspep- sia and a bad stomach.
 A good and thorough digestion has quick. wonderful reaction upon the brain. You must have noticed it many times for the brain and stomach are as intimately connected as needle and it's thread, one can hardly be used to advantage without the other. If your stomach Is slow and lazy in di- gesting 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 correspond ingly depressed. No one need tell you that.
 But why continue to suffer all the miseries and torments that disorder ed stomach brings you?
 If your stomach can not digest your food what will? 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 Tables is able to thoroughly and completely digest 5000 grains of any kind of food, doesn't it stand to reason that these little Dys- ! pepsia 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 Stuart's Dys- pepsa Tablets are the result of this scientific discovery. They digest and digest thoroughly and well, anything and everything you eat.
 So, If your stomach refuses to worl;
 or can't work, and you suffer from eructaticns, bloat, brash, fermenta- ton, biiousness. sour stomach heart
 burn, irritation. indigestion, or dys-
 pepsia of whatever form, just take one
 or two of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets
 and see the difference. It doesn't cos
 you much to prove it. Then you car eat all you want. what you want when you want, if you use these tab
 lets, and you can look the whole world
 in the face with a beaming eve ant : you will have a cheerful spirit, { pleasant face, a vigorous body and l; l, clear mind and memory and every
 thing will look and taste delicious t,
 you. That's life.

MRS. WILSON WINS.
Will Get Insurance on Her Late Hus-
bands Policy.

By overruling the demurrer to the
plaintiffs cross bill Judge Barham
practically ended the litigation IN the
case of the administrator of the 's-
tate of the late J. NJ. Wilson and Mrs.
Mollie %. Wilson,, against the Equl'a-
BILE Life Assurance Society. The de-
cision is virtually the same as Jnds'
mcnt for the plaintiff.
The suit was brought to recover OH
an insurance policy carried by the late
Mr.. Wilson. The policy had been al
lowed to lapse, and clause printed
on the document had set forth that
unless the insrrcd made application
for paid-up policy within six months
after a lapse. the policy should be-
come void. The plaintiff proved that
the cause in question was printed IN
smalIed typ than the law requires
and their contention that the clause
would not hold on this account was
sustained by the court.
