ITALIAN GAM ES

The people of sunny Italy have al
ways loved to spend their time in the
open air when they work, play or eat.
Often groups of men and boys are seen
in the streets throwing up their hands
and shouting. They look as if they
are quarreling. but they are only play
ing moro" This game they learned
from the Greeks, who had learned 1t
from the Egyptians. In Thebes, city
of Egypt, there are pictures 1000 years
old showing men playing this game.
Two men and two boys play the game.
They throw up their hands, holding
up as many fingers as they wish. Each
man knows how many fingers he him
self holds up. He must guess the
number which the other player holds
up and quickly cali out the whole
number of fingers on the two pairs of
hands. This makes the players close
watchers and quick in action.
In the center of a beautiful public
square of Rome there is large foun-
tain made of four stone lions with wa
ter pouring out of their mouths. On
moonlight nights in August when
crowds of people are enjoying the park
many like to play or watch the game

taken up among the people so that
money may be given as prizes to those
who win the game. The players are
blindfolded and turned around three
times Then they start off and try to
reach a certain point on the opposite
side of the fountain. Those who reach
the goal win the game. When the
players become confused and run in
the wrong direction there is great
laughter and when several run so close
to the lions mouths that they get
covered with water or get a ducking
in the fountain there is great fun for
the light people in the land of
flowers

 THAN STARVATION
Seven Deaths Arise From This Cause
 to One of Lack of Food.
A Trial Package of Stuart's Dyspepsia
 Tablets Sent Free.

A Trial Package of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets Sent Free. An English medical observer claims that for one death to starvation there are seven from over eating
 His investigation is appalling and leads one to believe that among the Anglo Saxon race over eating Is na- tionai crime.
 This investigation proves over-eating to be the cause off ten cases out of twelve of dyspepsia. indigestion and stomach trouble.
 These diseases bring on decay and decline of the other organs and death ensues because of an inability of the system to furnish proper nourishment to the dying and afflicted parts.
 When one over-eats, one cxhausts the gastric fluids, throws undigested food into the intestines. where it ere ates poison and germ life and is fin ally absorbed in a putrid state or thrown from the system in a decay ing form.
 Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets will over come the i'll effects of gluttony and irregular eating. They will digest an abnormal amount of food and will not leave the stomach until everything has been digested.
 A single one-grain ingredient of these tablets will digest 3.0o0 grains of food and in this proportion is seen how even guttony can be overcome or at least it's most harmful effects re- moved.
 Make up your mind to try Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets for one week Take a tablet after each meal and upon re- tiring at night Every druggist car ries them in stock; prices soc If you have druggist friend ask his opinion Send us your name and address and we will send you a trial package free by mail.
