that is people who have always lived in the west But when one comes to think of it, presidents of the United States have not often ranged Beyond the Rocky mountains.
 The first president to cross during his term Of office was Mir. Mckinley Colonel Roosevelt made a hurried trip to San Francisco and saw little of the country outside the Yosemite and Yellowstone park. MT. Cleveland was never west of Omaha. General Grant was on the Pacific coast in the course of his globe -encircling tour, after he was no longer president. but no other president or ex-president had ever been west of Denver.
 All this was brought more forcibIy to mind by an overheard conversation among three men just after the close of MT. Taft's address at the city hall plaza on Wednesday. They were walk ing down Washington street when one of them. evidently a stranger to the others. said: I've live more than sixty years and this is the first. time I ever saw a president One of the others. who looked as old. said: T never saw a president until today" and the third man remarked that he was in the same boat.
 The first speaker. meeting an ac- quaintance, yelled at him: Jim, I seen a president at last"
 The devil you did" replied Jim. Did he have horns?"

Painful Dyspepsia
A Form of Indigestion Caused by Gas tric Irritation from undieested
 Food in the Stomach.

No kind of dyspepsia is better l marked than that known as painful indigestion" and it is also a very common affection Pain, generally of dull character, is felt after meals, and along with the pain soreness at the pit of the stomach often exists. and in some cases the soreness is per- manent. The tenderness is commonly restricted to a spot in the middle line of the body immediately below the breast bone.
 It often Extends upward under the bone. which consequently feels sore on pressure. or the tenderness is felt toward either side. This tenderness is commonly associated with an unpleas- ant feeling of heat-"a burning sensa- tiOn"-as it is termed by some per sons There is also "gnawing' and dragging" as we'll as various other anomalous sensations complained of after taking food, and generally within an hour after eating
 As might be supposed the intensity of the symptom is proportionate to the quantity and quality of the meal When the stomach is empty a. sensa- ton of craving or emptiness gives most trouble. This often causes a false appetite. which. by inducing the person to eat heartily. aggravates the sufferings. Thirst generally causes much annoyance; heartburn. water brash, acidity. nausea, and headache are not infrequent Attendants. The tongue is usually coated and from a mere inspection of this organ the con dition of the stomach can often be correctly told.
 It is a comomn error with persons who suffer from stomach pain caused to use such drugs as chlorodyne. Hoff- mans Anodyne and other pain kill ers'' for its relief Such treatment is a great mistake. While these drugs afford temporary relief to the dyspep- tic pain, they have no effect whatever. in removing the cause.
 STUART'S DYSPEPSIA TABLETS remove the cause. By completely di- gesting all the food in the stomach, there is no further possibility of the occurrence of this disagreeable form of dyspepsia with it's painful mani festations and other concurrent symp- toms All of the irritation of the stomach lining and stomach nerves as the result of the undigested food lying in that organ and undergoing ferment- ation and decomposition is quickly done away with.
 But not only is the form of dyspep- sia which is accompanied by pain cured through the use of these di- gestive tablets. but also every other form of indigestion. as there are many kinds in which stomach pain does not occur. but where there are many symptoms equally disagreeable. dis comforting. disconcerting and discour- aging.
 StuartsS Dyspepsia Tablets contain, in a highly concentrated form, power full anti-dyspeptic ingredients. which digest rapidly and thoroughly food of every kind. including proteids. ni- trates. carbohydrates. etc. single grain will disintegrate and digest 5000 grains of food.
 Purchase a box from your druggist at once (price 50 cents), and get rid of the pain. discomfort and other dis agreeable symptoms of dyspepsia. AL so send in your name and address for free sample package. Address F. A. Stuart Co. 150 Stuart Bldg, Marshall. Mich

and with it the use of wine. The
oldtime aversion was dissipated and
city and country would grow again
the next year, but an army cuts and
burns trees and vineyards, and Spar
tacus was species of phylloxera
that the country people learned to
drink. Rome not only Slaked it's
thirst but had veritable fountains of
wine. The war had two results. they
carried the soldiers into vine-groW-
ing countries and they brought to
Italy the skilled viniculturists of the
best regions. Just as there have
been recently in California vine
dressers from Piedmont and Sicily,
so in those days Aegean farmers
found employment in planting in
Italy the vine OF their home Isl
ands.
The vine has made its mark on
| political institutions, the monarchiai
form being a result that would not
have occurred if the country had
not been covered with grapes and
olives. 1t had its infuenc upon the
establishment of peace and order
| With the vine growing on its hills
and plains Italy was anxious for
peace. A short time before Christ
| the invading army of Hannibal NOV
ed within its borders, and couple
of centuries later the rebellion OF
Spartacus stirred the people. The
former was the more serious occur
renee, yet the people called out NO
less loudly against the latter. In the
time of Hannibal, Italy had its fields
covered with grain and it's cattle;
when Spartacus revolted it was a
country of vineyards. The grain
might be destroyed.
Wine was the most important in
the political relations between Rome
and its provinces. Rome taught
them war, building, language and to
drink wine. Gaul prohibited it's i'm
portation. AS China fears opium
and France absinthe, so the an
cient colonies feared the influence
of wine. But this feeling disap-
peared when they were annexed and
began to be assimilated. And as the
colonies increased the prosperity OF
he mother country did likewise, and
largely through the vine, whose p,o
ducts found in every new province

At the time of the Christian era
