A Great Psychologist
Once Said the Way to Keep the Stom.
ach Healthy Is To Ex-
's 81 efclsa It.
But He Did Not Tell How to Make II
Healthy -,


The muscles of the body can be de-
veloped by exercise until their strength
has increased manifold, and a proper
amount of training each day will ac-
complish this result, but it is some
what doubtful whether you can increase
the digestive powers of the stomach by
eating indigestible food in order to
force it to work.
Nature has furnished us all with a
perfect set Of organs, and If they are
not abused they will attend to the bust
ness required of them. They need no
abnormal strength.
There is limit to the weight a man
can lift. and there is also a limit to
what the stomach can do.
The cause Of dyspepsia Indigestion
and many affiliated diseases is that the
stomach has been exercised too much
and it is tired or worn out. Not exer-
else but rest is what 1t needs.
To take something into the stomach
that will relieve 1t from its work for a
short time-something to digest the
food-will give 1t rest and allow it
time to regain its strength.
The proper aid to the digestive or
pans is Stuart's DYSPEPSIA Tablets which
cures dyspepsia. indigestion. gas on the
stomach and bowels. heartburn, palpi-
tation Of the heart, and all stomach dis
eases.
Pest and invigoration is what the
dyspepsia Tablets. for one grain Of
the active principle in them is sufficient
to digest 5000 grains of food.
The Tablets increase the flow of gas
tric Juice, and prevent fermentation,
acidity and sour eructions.
Do not attempt to starve out dys-
pepsia, You need all your strength
The common sense method is to di-
eest the food for the stomach and give
1t rest
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets do not
make the cure, but enables the organs
to throw off unhealthy conditions
Perfect digestion means perfect
health. for under these conditions only
do the different organs of the body
work right and receive the building-up
material found in pure blood
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets is ma

patrick, the manager of Jack Johnson,
" consider him bidder for the pro-
poseu contest between Tommy Burns
ana johnson for the heavyweight
championship of the world.
hlckard informs Fitzpatrick that he
VIII make larger bid for the battle to
take place in Goldfield than any club
manager in the county can offer, and
ADVISES Fitzpatrick to make no ar
rangements with other clubs until he
mas considered the Goldfield bid.
Fitzpatrick also has a standing offer
of s25,o00 for the fight from Jimmy Coff-
roth of San Francisco. With these two
splendid offers in sight Burns and
Johnson will have no trouble in finding
a place that will yield bag Of gold for
their encounter.
Fitzpatrick and johnson arrived in
New York from Detroit last night. Fitz-
patrick said that Johnson is now in
the throes of the grip. but he expects
the big negro to be in thorough shape
again in a few days.
''I thought he was too strong to catch
a little thing like grip" said Fftz-
patrick, but those grip germs are no
more afraid to tackle real champions
than they are four f1ushers."
After he told about his offers for the
big fight Fitzpatrick said that he ex-
pected Burns to come back from Eng
land shortly after his easy fight with
the Irish champion, Jem Roache, in
Dublin on March II.
He should be here before April L."
said Fitzpatrick, land then If he is in
earnest we can arrange to fight on May
1. I do not think he intends to dodge
Johnson this time. In fact, do not see
how he can"

quick knockout of Frank Mantell, who
claimed the welterweight boxing
cham pionship through stopping Honey
Melody, has landed him a match with
Billy Papke. Manager Jack McGuigan

phia in two weeks.
Lewis will be giving away ten
pounds to Papke. but as they are to
go only six rounds. a distance at which
Lewis is a master. the Quaker is con-
fident of his ability to soutpoint Papke.
Papke is a rushing, swinging fighter
and will undoubtedly carry the game
to Lewis. The latter, with his fast
footwork and fine defense. expects to
win on counters alone. The weight is
lisa pounds at s o'clock, which. is
Papke's lowest figure. Lewis can
make 142.
In the event of sticking the six rounds
with Papke, Lewis will go to the coast
and meet Jimmy Gardner for the
| legitimate welterweight title at 142
pounds Manager Coffroth is now

all guarantee bills. It provides that all
state banks may give security in the
form of surety or personal bond to the
bank commissioner to guarantee de-
posits in the bank. This Plan does not
take away the individuality of the con-
servative banker, but leaves each bank
to stand on It's own merits and only
responsible for its own acts. This plan
is practicable, is not an experiment, and
will guarantee deposits and yet has the
endorsement of many of the oonserva-
tive bankers which is evident when
such men as Brandon, Grasse, and 9TH
er conservative bankers voted for it."
The house has just about cleaned up
its calendar. Nearly every bill intro
duced has either been killed or passed,
and the house will be able to devote
most of its time working on senate
bills.
1t is expected that after the Kansas
Day club banquet tonight, many of tn :
members of the legislature will dis
appear from the Topeka horizon. They
won't wait for the final adjournment.
AS the chances for satisfactory legis-
lation on the subject of guaranteed
bank deposits become more slim, the
members of the legislature are wonder
ing what Governor Hoch will do about
it. Will he try to lecture the members
into being good, as ne did once DeIoFe. ?.

take a picture of the house members

not respond very generously to the call
