Do You Deliberately Torture Your.

A great outcry has arisen during the
last few years against scientists who tor
ture dumb animals alive In the interests
Of science. How many people are there
however, who needlessly torture tber,-
selves by causing their stomachs to over
work? Dyspepsia, indigestion. heartburn

Are you one Of these?
Why not give your stomach rest7
Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets will relieve
your stomach Of all it's work and do 81
for you. They are compounded OF the
very clements and do the work which the
stomach performs when in normal health
aseptic pepsin. malt diastase, and like In,

DR.. Richardson, in writing a thesis on
treatment Of dyspepsia and indigestion
closes his remarks by saying: For those
suffering from acid dyspepsia, shown by
sour, watery risings, or for flatulent dys-
pepsia. shown by gas on stomach, caus-
ing heart trouble and difficult breathing
as well as for all other forms OF stomach
trouble, the safest treatment is to take
one or two of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets
after each meal. l advise them because
they contain no harmful drugs. but are
composed of valuable digestives. which
act promptly upon the food eaten.
never knew a case Of indigestion or even
chronic dyspepsia which Stuart's Tablets
would not reach"
Cheap cathartic medicines claiming TO
cure dyspepsia and indigestion can have
no effect whatever in actively digesting
the food. and to call any cathartic medi-
cine cure for Indigestion is a misnomer.
Every druggist in the United States and
Canada sells Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets,
and they are not only the safest and most
successful, but the most scientific of any
treatment for Indigestion and stomach
troubles

New York. Feb. 27.-Saying the world is
large enough and rich enough in still
dormant possibilities to admit of pacific
cooperation by all nations. Baron Speek
Won Sternburg, the Ambassador from
Germany, in an article in the North
American Review, published to-day, as
sures mankind that his country needs no
colonies, and that what she wants is
merely free competition on all seas, the
open door and the right to cooperate free
ly on an equal footing with all other COM
-nercial and Industrial nations in opening
up new, and. as yet. unopened districts
and markets.
He frames a specific denial OF the
stories that the German empire wishes TO
possess territory in this hemisphere and
that it purposes TO annex Holland 10 ac-
quire the Island Of Curacao, in the Carib-
bean Sea.
No Designs on Belgium.
In his article. which he calls ''The truth
about German expansion he also denies
that Germany has designs on Belgium
He says it is not true that the increase
of population in the Kaiser's domain
makes more soil necessary 10 the exist
erce Of the people.
The rumors, he asserts. originated
neither in the Netherlands nor Belgium.
but in the minds of men unfamiliar with
the real aims of his Fatherland. He adds
that ia an article entitled The Phantom
Peril of German Emigration and South
American Settlements he already has
made a clear statement OF Germanys s
policy in the Southern hemisphere.
Enthusiastic for Peace.
The Ambassador points out that the
German Emperor is an enthusiastic advO-
cate of the peace movement; that the Ger
man government, since the great na-
tiOnal strife of the years 1870 and 1S!1.
has striven steadily for peace. and has
been less active than any other country
in expansion, and that ''the German na-
ton has no other wish than pacidcally
to mind its own business
1T is absurd" he continues. 10 say
that annexation of Holland and Antwerp
Is necessary preliminary to German CO.
lonial expansion. explaining that the en-
tire railroad and waterways system of
