NERVOUS DYSPEPSIA
A CURE FOR ALL
Not Patent Cure-Au. Nor a Modern Miracle. But Simply a Rational
 Cure for Dyspepsia

In these days of humbuggery and deception, the manufacturers of pat ent medicines Jas a rule, seem to think their medicines will not sell unless they claim that it will cure every dis ease under the sun. And they never think of leaving out dyspepsia and stomach troubles. They are sure to claim that their nOStrum is absolutely certain to cure every dyspeptfc and he need look no further.
 In the face of these absurd claims it is refreshing to note that the pro- prietors of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets have carefully refrained from making any undue claims or false representa- tfons regarding the merits of this most ercellent remedy for dyspepsia and stomach troubles. They make but one claim for it. and that is, that for indigestion and various stomach troubles Stuart'S Dyspepsia Tablets is a radical cure. They go no farther than this, and any man or woman suffering from indigestion, chronic or nervous dyspepsia. who will give the remedy trial will find that noth- ing is claimed for it that the facts will not fully sustain.
 It is a modern discovery, composed of harmless vegetable ingredients ac- ceptable to the weakest or most deli cate stomach. Its great success in cur ing stomach troubles is due to the fact that the medicinal properties are such that it will digest whatever whole some food is taken into the stomach, no matter whether the stomach is in good working order or not. It rests the overworked organ and replenishes the body the blood, the nerves, cre- ating a healthy appetite, giving re- freshing sleep and the blessings which always accompany a good digestion and proper assimilation of food.
 In using Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets no dieting is required. Simply eat plenty of wholesome food and take these Tablets at each meal, thus as- sisting and resting the stomach, which rapidly regains it's proper digestive power, when the Tablets will be no longer required.
 Nervous Dyspepsia is simply a condi- ton in which some portion or portions of the nervous system are not proper ly nourished. Good digestion invigor- ates the nervous system and every or gan in the body.
 Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are sold by all druggists at 60 cts. per package.

The Spring Sale.

Saturday afternoon and even
ing the ladies who have taker
the task of raising the sum OF
two hundred dollars, for the
purpose of building a band stand,
completed their labors with
a spring sale and social. The
opera house was used for the
purpose, and in its wide hall the
booths for the sale of such arti-
cles as were offered we're erect
ed. The sales were we'll pat
ronized, the articles offered be-
ing useful and attractive. The
social side of the entertainment
was, however, the leading fea-
ture, and while it was not re-
quired, perhaps so much time
and trouble to arrange for, it
was thoroughly enjoyed.
A dinner was served from 5 p.
m. and good things to eat were
supplied to all who came, later
cake and ice cream were sold
and found in great demand. An
art collection which was exhibit
ed furnished considerable amuse-
ment. Music and social con-
verse made the hours pass swift
ly and pleasantly.
The cash received amounted
to about $4,000 which complet-
ed the sum of $4,000 which is
considered necessary for the
erection Of such band stand as
will accommodate the the large
number of Meade's band.
The location selected is among
the trees near the old water
works plant and over the side
walk. The pillars have been
planted in cement bases and the
work will be rushed forward so
that the stand may be used on
Decoration day.
The raising OF such a sum OF
money for this purpose at this
particular time, was a great
undertaking for the ladies' who
have accomplished it, and they
deserve and are receiving the
thanks of the band boys and
Prof. VonProsky, the leader,
and the applause of the citizens
of the town and country.

Commercial Club Meeting.

Thursday night the club me
in regular session with fair at
, tendance. One of the important
matters settled was the decision
to hold rousing fourth of July
I celebration at Meade. The Club
will begin active preparations
for same at the next netting.
The next business disposed Of
was the proposition to make a
trade promoting trip south and
west into Beaver county and re-
turn from the south and east.
There is a large and wealthy
farming country in the south
part of this county and down as
far as Beaver city in Beaver coun-
ty which it was decided to be
profitable to know more of and
in which Meade should be better
known. The members of the
Club with others will on June 9th
ana 9TH make an auto trip over
that country carrying the posters
of the next farmers sale day.
Other advertising matter will be
carried and acquaintance form
ed which it is hoped, will be for
the mutual benefit of the people
of that part of the country and
of Meade.
A committee was also named
to look after the road question.
There are several places where
a betterment of the roads lead
ing into Meade will be of value
as trade promoters, and it is the
business of this committee to
call the attention of the township
trustees and road overseers to
such places and if necessary
suggest proper remedies for
each. Organized effort will ac-
complish wonders in any line of
human endeavor and in the build
ing up of city it is irresistible.
Organization centralizes t h e
power and uses the mind and
energy of each and all the citizens
at a given point and accompanies
that which can not be done by
individual effort. To the end
that Meade may have the benefit
of every citizen in the campaign
for progress which the club has
now opened, every one not a
member should become one.
When the membership committee
calls on you receive it warmly,
sign your name to the roll and
become the chief booster for
Meade.

Farmers Sale Day.

May II is the date of the next
farmers sale day in Meade.
The Commercial Club is taking
hold to help forward the interest
OF the day as to trade and accom-
modations of those attending.
The News will print additional
bills which will be distributed
as before, and in addition large
number will be used in Beaver
county and in Gray. Heretofore,
many persons held back about
listing property which they
wish to offer for sale. Many
others did not list theirs. The
advertising of goods and stock
for sale, costs the owners moth
ing, and they miss possible bid
ders by not listing their proper
ty for advertisement. In the
past complaint has been made
that persons would have attend
the sales if they had known GER
tain property was being offered,
The News would like to have the
list made up as early as possible
50 that all may beaccommodated
Remember the advertising
costs nothing, the auctioneers
fees only one-half the regular
charges. Come early with prop
erty to be listed. so we can have
the best opportunity to get bid
ders for you. The Won Prosky
band as usual will furnish music
The merchants and business
men will make it to your inter
est financially to be in town that
day and welcome you with the
glad hand.
