The American Excess
of Good Livinq
The Principal Cause Of the Great Pre-
valence of Indigestion and Dyspepsia.

Man inhabits every part of the
globe where external influences can be
successfully resisted. Food Is an i'm
portant element in effecting this, and
nature has provided for it accordingly.
The colder the climate the more ami
NAL food and oily substances are re-
CURED; the warmer a preponderance
of vegetables and fruits is necessary in
ones diet.
The whale-blubber of the fur clad
Eskimo, and the rice of the nude
African, are as much necessities of To-
cality, as matters of choice. The same
indications exist in civilization Thus,
the diet in America and England is
essentially different from that in Italy,
Spain and Egypt.
The effects of universal communica-
tion are nowhere more obvious than on
thesluxurious table. To furnish the re-
fined cuisine, all climates, both sea
and land are Lana under contribution,
and the stomach is expected to di-
gest, without assistance everything
that is put into it. Combining to-
\gether such varied products, and the
neglect of the relation between eli
mate and foods, are very active causes
of dyspepsia.
The heavy substantial dishes of this
climate accord badly with the ther-
mometer at ninety degrees; and an in
fiexibility in regulating the kind and
quantity of food is cause of a large
proportion of the ii health and stom-
ach troubles among the English and
Americans.
I@ 80 1,,l,.o Io, e,,f
fered from stomach troubles, and u
general ill-health resulting therefrom
because of badly regulated diet, and
the ingesting of an excessive amount
Of food al the table. have obtained
speedy and permanent relief by means
of simple expedient-that of using
one or two of STUART'S DYSPEPSIA
TABLETS after each meal, or when
ever any Of the well-known symptoms
of indigestion are present.
These powerful digestive tablets
contain every element that exists in
the stomach to digest the food, and in
the exact proportion as found therein
They take the place of the natural di-
gestive juices when the latter are de-
ficient in quality or quantity, and do
their work for them, removing the in
digestion by digesting the food, and
resting, Strengthening and purifying
the digestive tract
There is no other digestive remedy
on the market which has been found
equal to Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets;
none which is so rapidly and power
fully efficient, or which removes dis
comfort, banishes stomach-pain, and
relieves and cures all of the symptoms
of dyspepsia and indigestion in so
thorough and pleasant manner as
these marvellous little tablets, a single
grain of which is capable of digesting
5000 grains of any and every kind of
food.
All persons who are annoyed with
stomach troubles of +, any kind should
use Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets, which
will remove such troubles in a very
short time. Purchase box from your
druggist, and send us name and ad-
dress for free sample. Address F. A.

HEIRS OF
CHIEF kE0KUK
OKLAHOMA WOMAN WRITES
MAYOR CONCERNING LAND
SAYS SHE REARED HEIRS

keokuk, Jan. 19.-Mrs. Sarah
Qu1gg of Stroud, Okla, has written a
letter 0f inquiry to Mayor Charles Off,
OF Keokuk, in which she wants to
know If there ever was settlement
of Chief Keokuk's land among the
heirs now living. She asks this be-
cause two of the heirs have been rear
ed by her, one of whom has reached
the age of twenty-one.
Mrs Quigg believes that some land
was set aside when the treaty with
the Indians was made and that this
land was to go for the education and
maintenance of Keokuk's heirs She
says that some time ago call was
sent out for the heirs in order that a
settlement might be made, but at that
time it was impossible for them to
gather together.
Terms OF Treaty.
According to the treaty made with
Chief Keokuk, which was in 1885. he
ceded his reserve to the United States
Tor $4,000, and an annuity of $4,000
for ten consecutive years, and when
this was made he and his followers
turned their faces toward the setting
sun. What can be learned further Of
this treaty does not indicate that
there was any land set aside for the
heirs of Keokuk.
Does Not Trace Descendants.
Mrs. Quigg does not trace the line
OF descent from Chief Keokuk to the
heirs whom she has reared, but men
tions two others, although she does
not give their names.
1t is known that Chief Keokuk left
son of considerable ability Wheth-
er the so-called heirs now living are
descendants of this son is not known,
but If they are the legitimate descend
ants, it is likely they are.

delivery system operated independent
ly of each store is a scheme that re.
ceived hearty endorsement at an In
formal meeting of the retail mer.
chants, and the retail and local trade
committee of the Commercial club.
The plan seeks to give the patrons
almost uniform delivery, quicker and
better than that now given by each
merchant independently, and would
further be material saving to the
merchants The scheme works to per-
lection in many Michigan and Wiscon-
sin cities, namely Ann Arbor, Pontiac,

others.

The plan briefly is patterned after

MARRIED AT FARMlNGToN.
Mr.. and Mrs. TuttIe of Des Moines
Welded in Lee County Town
80 Years Ano

Des Moines, Jan. 19-Fifty years
ago marked an event which linked the
destlnies of two of Des Moines' old
and prominent citizens for long and
happy life. Miss Almyra Kelly and
Mr.. Samuel Brainerd Tuttle were mar
ried January II, $780, at Pennington,
la. For sixteen years they lived at the
pretty little town where Mr.. Tuttle
was engaged in the packing and ship
ping of meats. All of their children
three sons, Lynn Joel, Albert Henry
and Fred K, VINO died in 1S70-were
born there. The two former are resi-
dents of this CITY, where their parents
came in 1876 The Tuttle family of
five sons were prominent figures in the
early life of this place Gen. James
Tuttle and Samuel Tuttle both enlisted
in the army early in the Civil war The
former remained throughout the entire
war and retired at it's close with
generals rank. Mr.. Tuttle came home
at the end of three months to help
care for the family. Mrs. Thomas
Wright and Miss Martha Tuttle of Chi
cago and Miss Celesete Tuttle of this
city are his sisters. All have been
well known figures in the social his
tory of Des Moines.
Mrs. Tuttle's sympathies have al
ways been closely allied with all the
movements for the good of the place.
She has for several years been a mem
ber of the board of managers of the
Home for Friendless Children and has
been ever ready to lend helping hand
to every worthy cause She has the
broad interests which have grown out
of the early pioneer life of Iowa. She
came from Carmel, N. Y, to Iowa in
1845, covering almost the entire dis
tance by boat. The old time friends,
neighbors and acquaintances of more
recent years have been invited by Mr..
and Mrs. Tuttle to help them cele-
brate the golden wedding anniversary
tonight at their home on the corner of
Fifteenth street and Woodland ave-
nue.. The old and new settlers will
find pleasure in congratulating them
upon fifty years of welded happiness.
