DO YOU ENJOY YOUR MEALS I?
One Of the Most Important Questions
To Consider In the Search Of
Happiness and Health.

The burning question TO you is,
Are you getting out of life all the
pleasure and the health you are en-
titled to-" II not, why not?
No matter whether every organ and
member of your body is in a sound
state OF health and strength, II your
stomach Is in any way disordered, you
are not going to be yourself" You
are going to be a worried. out-of sorts
nervous or sullen individual. whose
actions will reflect your condition
inside, and people will naturally avoid
you.
The world wants to smile and be
cheerful, and unless you are cheerful
and smile, at least, occasionally, you
will have few friends, fewer oppor-
tunities, no success, and you will so
down in defeat-defeated by dyspep-
STA and a bad stomach.
A good and thorough digestion has
a quick, wonderful reaction upon the
brain. You must have noticed it many
times, for the brain and stomach are
as intimately connected as a needle
and it's thread--one can hardly be
used to advantage without the other.
II your stomach is slow and lazy in
at once a slow, lazy and cloudy In
fuence upon your brain. Mark It.
II your stomach has absolutely quit
work, and fermentation Is poisoning
your vitals as result, surely your
brain Is going to be sluggish and
correspondingly depressed. No one
need tell you that.
But why continue to suffer all the
miseries and torments that a disor-
dered stomach brings you?
II your stomach can not digest your
food, what will? Where's the relief?
Where's the cure?
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are the
relief and the cure. Why? Because.
as all stomach troubles arise from In.
digestion and because one ingredient
OF Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets is able
TO thoroughly and completely digest
5000 grains of any, kind OF foJd
doesn't IL stand to reason that these
little Dyspepsia Tablets are going to
digest all the food and whatever food
YOU put into your stomach? Science
nowadays can digest food without
having TO use the stomach for H. And
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are the
result of this scientific discovery.
They digest and digest thoroughly
and well, anything and everything you
eat
So, II your stomach refuses to work
or can't work, and you suffer from
eructations, bloat, brash, fermensa-
ton, biliousness, sour stomach, heart
burn, irritation, Indigestion, or iys.
nepsla OF whatever form, just take
one OF two OF Stuart's Dyspepsia
Tablets, and see the difference. II
doesn't cost you much to prove It.
Then you can eat all you want, what
YOU want, whenever you want, IL you
use these tablets, and you can look
the whole world in the face with a
beaming eye. and you will have a
cheerful spirit, pleasant face. a Wig
orous body and a clear mind and mem
DRY and everything will look and taste
delicious to you. That's life.

DIPLOMAT BILL PASSES.
House Measure Provides Suitable
Homes For Representatives Abroad.


WASHINGTON. Feb. S.-After a

day passed bill providing for pur-

nut through under suspension oil

TO 50. The senate, which on several
occasions in the past has adopted
similar bills, is expected to ratify to-
DAYS action of the house.
Representative Lowden OF Illinois
author of the bill, led the fight for II,
seconded by Representative. Long
worth of Ohio. The opposition to the
measure came from the Democratic
side. Representatives Cullop OF Indi
ana and Underwood of Alabama, max.
ing the principal speeches. Mr.. Low
den declared that every secretary oil
state from Olney down had urged the
adoption OF such legislation.
MIR. Longworth declared that there
were only two days OF broadening the
gcope of the American diplomatic
corps and taking IL out of the realm OF
the millionaire. One was TO increase
the salaries so as TO enable a compar
atively poor man to live on scale
with his colleagues and the other was
TO provide him with suitable house
In which to live.
Failure to do either one Of these
two things" said Mr.. Longworth, "has
developed in this country an Office
holding aristocracy which is utterly
repugnant to a Democratic form OF
eovernment-an aristocracy that de
ponds not upon birth, but upon the
might of money"
