He had mastered all wisdom abroad and
His frontal bone buiged like a capitol
dome.
He had gathered the worlds choicest
fancy and fact.
And with things cyclopedic his memry
was packed.
He chortled with glee at the sight of new
lore.
for more.
He knew all the tongues, down to Choc-
taw and Creek,
He lectured in Sanscrit and gossiped in
Greek.
But they asked him to stand as a god
father once,
And he Numbered and failed like the veri-
est Ounce.
He was brave as lion, unconquered, IN
tanned;
His hairbreadth escapes were unnum-
bered, unnamed.
A mad dog amuck in the street scared
not him,
And runaway steeds he had stopped with
great vim.
He had battied for life on the ocean in
storm,
He sought gravest perils to keep in good
While fire and tempest or pistol and
knife
These menaces served as the breath of
his life.
But his wife sent him shopping, with
samples to match,
And he fainted-and never came up to
the scratch. L. ID.

BIOdted and
Sour Stomach
Need No Longer Be Endured By SUI
ferers from Dyspepsia.

The stomach and intestines always con-
tain, even in health, a small amount of
gases. They seem. both from a chemical
and mechanical point of view, to be es-
sential, to some extent at least, to good
digestion. A great deal of common air
IS swallowed with the food, and the re-
markable facility with which air bubbles
are formed in the saliva is referrable to
this special purpose.
II follows that oxygen and nitrogen
are natural to the stomach, and it has
been ascertained that nitrogen is great
~ in excess or oxygen, showing that even
IN the stomach this gas is some way
employed IN the vital processes. But as
gases are easily evolved by fermentation
and decomposition or FOOD IN the st0m-
aCh and intesttnes. and as saCcharine and
other fermentable matters dissolved in
liquids are present in the gastro-intes-
final tube, it results that its aeroform
contents are much more complex than is
generally supposed.
When digestion is perfectly healthy
there can be no fermentation and flatu-
lence. but as soon as indigestion occurs
earbOnic acid gas and various other
gases are freely formed in the stomach
and bowels, causing much discomfort.
The remedies employed for the cure of
flatulence may be classified as follows.
Those which prevent fermentation; those
which favor the expulsion OF gas. and
those which oXidiZe and absorb gases,
OF the remedies which possess the above
properties. charcoal is the only one which
mas the power or preventing Iefmenta-
ton and decomposition of food, and at
the same time absorbing all excess gases
in the alimentary chan~el.
Medicines which eXpel gases from the
stomach, known as carminatives, are not
TO be compared with remedy which
absorbs the gases and prevents eructa-
tions or belching STUARTS CHAR
COAL LOZENGES are now used by thou
sands of people who were formerly sub
Ject to fermentation. decomposition,
belching, bad breath. and rumbling noises
in the Intestinal system. and from which
disagreeabls symptoms, through the use
of these powerful absorbent lozenges,
complete relief has been obtained.
They are made of the finest willow
wood, treated by a special, exclusive. car
bombing process, and when sweetened
with pure honey, a medicinal product Is
obtained which is at once palatable and
wonderfully effective in curing these com

STRAIGHT TICKET
/. FOR REPUBLICANS
]. A. Eckman and w. E. ViguS
Will Run for the
Council.

Republicans of the Second precinct de-
cided yesterday TO run a straight Repub-
lican ticket for the council, with ]. A.
Eckman for the long term and w. T.
Vigus for the short term. The district
chairmen OF the precinct will meet with
the party workers at Republican head
quarters in the Dooly block tonight and
perfect the precinct organization in final
preparation for a winning campaign.
Republican victory in the Second pre-
cinet is indicated from every part OF the
west side and it is pointed out that only
the lack of a good organization on the
part OF the Republicans made possible
the election of American councilmen two
years ago. Since that time the treat
ment or the west side by the city ad-
ministratiOn has caused a complete de-
moralizatiOn of the American forces in
the Second precinct and those who were
formerly ardent supporters of the Kearns
outfit are now strongly aligned with the
Republicans; frankly cOnfessing their
mistakes in following the party which
has scorned their appeals for improve
ments and given them only unfu1filled
promises fer their support in former years.
The straits in which the American party
dictators find themselves IN the Second
precinct are indicated by the frantic eff
forts of the city committee to whip or
caJOle their old supporters into line. A
special committee was sent out from
American party city headquarters yester-
day to canvass the west side in search
of support and this committee was en-
powered to furnish work at good pay for
the remainder of the campaign for any
number of workers up to 100 Results of
this attempt to get some of the poll
ticians in line showed a dismal failure
and the American party organization now
realizes that all hope for saving E. g.
| O'DorneH in the city council has van
| ished. AS for Captain Reed, the
nephew of the antiquated chief OF the
l fire department his most ardent sup
/ pOrters now realize that he never had

of the best speeches he ever made, and
he held his audience spellbound by his
elOqUence. OF course, there were several
composers, and many great professors of
music, men Of worldwide renown, no
doubt, who dwelt upon his words with
rapt attention, until he came to the men,
ton Of the famous composers. He spoke
of the priceless gift of music given to
the world through the medium of such
perfect masters as Wagner, Mendelssohn,
Beethoven, Rubinstein, Tannhauser and
several others. Well, when he mentioned
the opera 'Tannhauser' as a member of
the immortal band, I saw a smile pass
over the faces of the distinguished mu-
sicians and their kind, but. luckily, Sena-
tor Taylor did not notice it.
Afterwards, when 1 told him of II, he
said:
." say, Laps, did I do such a thing as
that?

book form, but the quoted composer did
not appear in the illustrious list

The following anecdote we'll illustrates
the exalted position Sir Wilfrid Laurier
occupies in the minds Of the less edu-
Gated French Canadians. Some years ago
an ilIiterate old Canadian came into Que
bee from the country, where he met a
friend whom he had not seen for years.
In the course of conversation the old fell
low happened TO mention the name OF
Oueen Victoria, and was much Rgtonished
to learn that she was dead.

PLuCKEp FEATHERS.
Denver News.)


The rise and decline of the present Tul-
ing dynasty of the Turkish empire may
be seen from the following:
Founded by Gilman, or Osman /, who
ruled from 1853 to 1926.
Orkhan, his son and successor, was the
real organizer of the Ottoman power.
Amruth /, who succeeded Orl1han in
1853 and ruled until 1889, made his realm
q European as well as an Asiatic power.
1t was his son and successor, Bajazet
], who routed a crusading army of Hun
garians, Poles and French at NicOpolis
in 1886.
Amurath II conquered Macedonia and
part of Greece and Hungary, and his son,
DIOhammed II, captured ConstantinOpIe in
1853 from the ByZantines and made II
the capital of the Ottoman empire.
The decline of the Ottoman power be-
gan with the crushing defeat at the Bat
tie OF Lepanto in ISL.
Abdul Hamid was the Lhirty-fouFth sui
tan since Gilman. He assembled the throne
Aug. 81, 1876 on the deposition" of his
elder brother Murad v as insane.
