THE STOMACH
OF The CHILD
Is the Organ All Parents Should Pro
tect and Keep Normal.

The stomach of child Is the organ
above all others upon which the future
OF a child depends. Bodily develop
ment Is fast in children, and the nour-
ishment necessary to meet such devel-
opment is the one essential demanded
from parent Most mothers and faith
ers, jealousy guard child from the
formation of bad habits, yet in this
age our children early become the vic
tins of wrong food over eating and
irregular meals.
1t is most appalling to know the eft.
feet Of stomach troubles among our
children.
Most children who are nervous, irrit-
able and cross, who dream, sleep rest
lessly, who tire easily and have no de-
sire for child exercise, generally have
stomach trouble, indigestion and dys-
pepsia.

These tablets mix with the juices of
the system, enriching them and giving
to the body the ingredients necessary
to build up the rapidly forming brain
and body Of the young.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets should
be given to children after each meal
and at bed time. They are made from
pure vegetable and fruit essences and
contain no harmful chemicals what

from the same solid quarry of sober
reason. Passion has helped us. but
can do so no more. 1t will in future
be our enemy. Reason-cold, calculat-

In time Lincoln's style changed. He
became more eloquent, but with less
gaudy ornamentation. He grew i'll

he was able at last to deliver the

lature in 1888 and again in 1910. He
did not seek q denomination. In 1914
he was candidate for the nomination

Lincoln's great speeches, and l give
it as my opinion that the Blooming
ton speech was the grand effort of his
life. Heretofore he had simply argued
the slavery question on grounds Of
policy-the statesman's grounds
never reaching the question of the raGl-
cal and eternal right Now he was
newly baptised and freshly born; he
had the fervor; the smothering flame
broke out; enthusiasm unusual to him
blazed up. From that day to the day
of his death he stood firm in the right.
He felt his great cross, had his great
ideal, nursed it, kept it, taught it to
others, in his fidelity bore witness to
his death, and finally sealed it with
his precious blood"
(The debates with Douglas are re.
counted and Mr.. Herndon goes on to
tell of the movement that elevated
Lincoln to the presidency He says:
The opening Of the year 1860 found
Mr. Lincoln's name freely mentioned
in connection with the Republican
nomination for the presidency. To be

and other celebrities was enough TO

but in Mr. Lincoln's case, If it had any
such effect, he was most artful in con-
cealing it. The first effort in his be-
half as a presidential aspirant was the
action taken by his friends at a meet
ing held in the state house early in
1860 in the rooms of o. N. Hatch, then
secretary of state. Beside Mr.. Hatch
there were present Norman B. Judge,
chairman of the Republican state COM

meeting, as the Illinois candidate
for the presidency, and asked him il

modesty he doubted whether he could

do so to place him in the field. The
first public movement by the Illinois
people in his interests was the action
of the state convention which met at
Decatur on the ninth and tenth of May.
1t was at this convention that Lin
coins friend and cousin, John Hanka,
brought in the two historic rails which
both had made in the Sangamon bot
toms in 1880, and which served the
double purpose of electrifying the Ilii-
nois people and l1indling the fire Of
enthusiasm that was destined to sweep
over the nation. In the words of an
ardent Lincoln delegate, These rails
were to represent the issue in the COM
ing contest between labor free and IA.
Dor slave; between democracy and ar.
istrocracy. A week later the great
convention at Chicago nominated LIN
coin. the cannon planted on the roof
of the wigwam belched forth boom
across the Illinois prairies and the
sound was taken up and reverberated
from Maine to California What fol.

part of history.

brlef and modest record he returned to

Jealous perseverance he renewed his

thought reliable and proficient. The
brief taste of public office which he
had just enjoyed and the distinction
which 1t gave him only whetted his ap.
petite for further honors. Accordingly
IN 1886 we find him candidate for the
legislature again This time Lincoln
led his ticket and was reelected.
(Herndon relates how Lincoln took
more, prominent part in this session
of the legislature, was made mem
Der of important committees and led
the fight which resulted in the removal
OF the state capital from Vandalia to
Springfield. He later removed to
Springfield and began the practice of

| In March, 1887, he was licensed to
| practice law. He entered the office and
became the partner of his comrade
in the Black Hawk war, John r. Stuart
who had gained rather an extensive
practice and who by the loan of sun
dry text books several years before
had encouraged Lincoln to continue in
the study of law. We had a society in
Springfield which contained and com
manded all the culture and talent of
the place. It's meetings were public
and reflected great credit or the com
munlty. We called 1t the Young
Mems Lyceum.' Late in 1887 Lincoln
delivered before the society a care

In striking and lofty metaphor. In

thing he ever afterwards attempted.
Probably it was the thing people ex-
pected from young man of twenty
eight. The address was published in
the Sangamon Journal and created
for the young orator reputation

Making Good.

There Is no way OF making Insfeyse
friends like making Good;v and Doctor
Pierce's medicines well exemplify this,
and their friends, after more than two
decades OF popularity, are numbered by
the hundreds Of thousands. They have
s.made good" and they have not made
drunkards.
A good, honest, square-deal medicine OF
known composition is DIR. Pierce's Golden
Medical Discovery. 1t still enjoys an i'm
mense sale, while most Of the prepara-
tons that have come into prominence in
the earlier period of Its popularity have
gone by the board " and are never more
heard OF. There must be some reason for
this longtime popularity and that is to
be found m its superior merits. When
once given a fair trial for weak stomach,
or for liver and blood affections, its supe-
rior curative qualities are soon manifest;
hence 1t has survived and grown In pop
uiar favor, while scores of less m~eritorious
articles have suddenly flashed into favor
for a brief period and then been as soon
forgotten.
For a torpid liver with its attendant
Indigestion, dyspepsia. headache, per-
haps dizziness, foul breath, nasty coated
tongue, with bitter taste, loss of appetite,
with distress after eating, nervousness
and debility. nothing Is so good as DIR.
Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery. It's
an honest, square-deal medicine with all

- no secret, no h~ocus-pocus humbug,
therefore don't accept q substitute that
the dealer may possibly make a little big
ger profit. Insist on your right to have
what you call for.
Don't buy DIR. Pierce's Favorite Prescrip-
ton expecting it to prove a wcure-all." It
is only advised for woman's special all
ments. 1t makes weak women strong and
sick m we'll. Less advertised than
some preparations sold for like purposes,
its sterling curative virtues still maintain
its position in the front ranks, where it

The suit came to trial more than

FIND WATER
is EXCELLENT
This City's Supply Is Better
Than What South AmbOy
Is Receiving.
RESULT OF ANALYSIS

Following a visit of Superinten-
dent Crowell, of the water DEPART
ment, on May 28, when he took three
samples of the city water to Trenton
for analysis in the state laboratory,
report has been received.
One of the samples was taken from
the tap in the Office at the city hall,
another from the tap in the engine
room at the pumping station at Run
yon, and another from a tap at South
Amboy. Mr.. Crowell received the re-
suit of the analyses this morning and
while those of this city and Runyon
are nearly alike, the one of the South
Amboy sample differs considerably.
The superintendent says that the
difference is due to the fact that
South Amboy is supplied through the
old sixteen-inch water main, which
undoubtedly contains considerable
iron rust and residue. The analyses
of the three samples in comparison
are given below.
According to the state chemists
Perth Amboy's city water is free
from any bacteria, contains no iron,
is colorless and contains only small
percentage of solids. There is little
difference in the water from the time
it is pumped from the wells at Rum
yon until 1t reaches this city and If
South Amboy's supply came through
the same main as this city's, 1t would
not differ either.
