Letters From the People
MENACE TO FORESTS

Editor Call: The method of burning
brush suggested by Mr.. Robinson is
all right. but the trouble is the people
do not do it.
1 would suggest that the forest serv-
ice be vested with plenary power so
that after the owners of land when
slashings become a public menace and
are notified to burn the same and do
not do it that the service have the
same done, the cost to be charged to
the owner of the land, added to and
collected along with the regular coun-
ty taxes. The amounts so/ collected
could then be remitted to the forest
service to reimburse it.
Right here serious menace has ex-
listed during the last summer from
sIashings on the land of two mining
companies. The forest service notified
them to burn the slasllings. but no no.
tice was taken of it and the menace
still exists. Giving notice and not hav-
ing power TO enforce seems farcical.

ANY NAN OVER FIFTY.

Ycu can interest any man over fifty years OF
age in ANYTHING that win make him feel better
because. while he may not as yet have any posi-
tive organic disease. he no longer feels the buoy
ancy and vigor of twenty-n nor the freedom
from aches and pains he enjoyed In earlier
years. and he very naturally examines with In
terest any proposition looking to the improve
ment and preservation Of his health.
He will notice among other things that tne
stomach Of fifty Is q very different one from the
stomach he possessed at twenty-five. That great
est care must be exercised as to what Is eaten
and how much Of 1t. and even with the best oil
care there will be increasing digestive weakness
with advancing years.
A proposition to perfect or improve the diges-
ton and assimilation Of food is one which inter
csts not only every man Of fifty. but every man,
and child Of any age. because the wboie
secret of good health. good blood. strong nerves
is to have stomach which will promptly and
thoroughly digest wholesome food. because biood,
nerves. brain tissue and every other constituent
OF the body is entirely the product OF Digestion
and no medicine health food can possibly
create pure blood restore shaky nerves when
q weak stomach is replenishing the daily wear
and tear of the body from a mass Of fermenting,
half-digested food.
No the stomach itself wants help and in no
roundabout way. either. 1t wants direct, IN
mistakabie assistance. such as Is given by one
OF two Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets after each
meal.
These tablets cure stomach trouble because
their gives the stomach a chance to rest and
recuperate. One Of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets
contains digestive elements sufficient to digest
Z. OCO grains of ordinary food, such as bread
meat. eggs. ETC.
The plan Of dieting is simply another name Tor
starvation. and the of prepared foods and
newfangled breakfast foods simply makes mat
tiers worse, as any dyspeptic who has tried them
knows.
AS Dr. Bennett saws. 1.-THE only reason can
imagine why Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are not
universally used by everybody who is troubled
in any way with poor digestion Is because many
people seem to think that because a medicine Is
advertised or is sold in drug stores or Is pro-
tected by trade mark must be humbug
whereas. matter of truth. any druggist
who Is cbeervant knows that Stuart's Dyspepsia
Tablets have cured more people OF indigestion

rundown condition generally than all the patent

trouble combined
