DEANS BILL IS DEAD
SENATE KILLS A MEASURE Pro.
POSED BY SALOON MEN.
The House smothers the Woods Tax.
alton and Public Utilities Bill
After Exciting Debate.

Columbus, o., Feb. Yesterday
in the legislature was marked by the
defeat in the senate of the Dean bill,
probably the most important measure
of the liquor interests, and intended
to save cities voting wet from the eff
fects of county local option elections
when the drys win, and by the refer
ence to the taxation committee of the
house of the Woods taxation and pub.
lie utilities bill. The latter action was
regarded by friends of the measure as
equivalent to killing il. There was an
exciting debate before the vote was
taken, which showed the Democrats
to be practically unanimous against
the reference of the bin to the taxa
tion committee. Only a few Republi-
cans voted with the Democrats. The
vote was 60 to 40.
Representative Woods of Medina
county, author of the bill, and chair
man Of the codes committee, which
recommended passage, made strong
appeal for favorable consideration.
He is a Republican and he addressed
his remarks particularly to members
Of his own side, charging the Repub.
lican floor leader Representative Err
win, with shooting holes in about
every measure the codes committee
favored lie declared strong infiu.
ences had been brought to bear
against the bill. Representative
Schaibley of Cuyahoga county in OPP
posing Woods efforts to secure an i'm
mediate vote on the bill, charged that
the corporations, instead of fighting
1t, were directly for 1t and that that
accounted for the haste sought An
unsuccessful effort was made to have
the bill put up for special considera-
tion next Tuesday.
The Dean bill providing that only
men of good character may engage In
the saloon business, will be up as a
special order in the senate Tuesday.
Senator Deans other measure. which
was voted down yesterday, sought to
exempt cities which wanted to remain
wet, from effects of county option
elections.

The Man Who
Eats Well
And Enjoys Food Lives Life as
He Should and Gets the
Most From Il.

The man who eats Is the man who
works, and the man who works is
the man who wins. Tireless workers
depend upon a storehouse Of vim
and vigor. India is noted for it's
fasters and it's dreamers, Europe and
America or their eaters and theil
workers.
In America we have been doing
nothing but work this past quarter
of century. That is why our old
men say, 'In my days no one had
dyspepsia. or course all men in
those days ate and worked, now they
work and eat
II eating interferes with business
men give up eating. This Is good
logic for tine dollargetter, but poor
wisdom for the man who really
wants to live.
Abuse Of anything God given re-
cults in punishment. and man Is a
pigmy when II comes to cheating
his system.
If yOn take from the system that
which is intended should remain, on
put into II that which Is intended
should be kept out, you are cheating
yourself, and sooner or later pay
the penalty.
Sthart's Dyspepsia Tablets are con-
Centrated vegetable and fruit essenct
which give the system every fluid
stimulant and ingredient necessary
TO gain the fullest strength from
everything which goes into the
stomach, or to keep from the system
everything which should not lay
and decay in II.
II you will eat fast and improperly
II you will drink and eat irregularIy
and TO excess then give to Nature
as you do so enough of the essence
she demands to neutralize the bad
effects of your habits.
After a meal take a Stuart Dyspep-
sia Tablet, and the meal won't hunt
you or your stomach
At a midnight dinner take Stuart
tablet and you will sleep well ant
get UP without a breath which is
filled with the decay of the midnight
meal.
hortify your stomach like you do
your business. Fortune when lost can
be regained, but the stomach out
ragged stays with you to the finish
and you know 1t is there.
II you want to know what these
tablets will do, buy package from
any druggist, price so cents or send

StambSare
BOtherSOn1e

WASHINGTON, Dec. 1S-Officials
of the postoffice department have been
caused a lot of trouble by the Red
Cross stamps, although the little la
bells have their fullest sanction and
support From ali over the country
come reports Of letters being mailed
with only Red Cross stamps npon
them, and these must be treated as
unpaid matter, since no amount OF the
charitable labels will take the place
of Uncle Sans little red stamps. Pat
rons of the postoffice are also warned
not to stick Red Cross stamps on let
ters addressed to Great Britain, as
mail matter forwarded to that coun-
try must bear no other stamps or
labels than the official postage stamps
of the country where mailed. Those
who have placed Red Cross stamps on
mail addressed to Great Britain or any
English colony may confidently expect
that it will not be delivered. The same
rule applies to Germany, except that
that Red Cross stamps may be placed
on the back of letter or parcel but
positively not on the front or address
side
