THAT BEAUTIFUL SNOW"
A PARODY BY VIM. DEyERE

"Oh the snow, that beautiful snow," That flies in your face wherever you go. That's twisted and whrel n ''dizzy' old street Till it blinds your poor eyes, and freezes your feet It's all very fine, that beautiful snow, If you've cash in your pocket and somewhere to go But the poet born in summer I know, That finds something pretty in ''beautiful snow" Beautiful is it? Humph Beautiful snow, When it falls a sinner nowhere go. It me, now-lLm practical man, I'm no love-sick damse or innocent lamb, Therefore I cant be expected, you know. To stand my head about "beautifu snow') It me, now, that this sucker should go And bury himself in his beautiful snow. Beautiful, is it, eh?-beautiful snow, The thermometer just degrees below. Your Overcoat 'hocked," a cent in your ''kicl" And beautiful snow till you can't see a brick
 In the sidewalks around in "tart'' country town, And that beautiful snow is still coming down. Why if had with a fire all aglow could envy the 'crank" who wrote Beautiful Snow" "Beautiful snow from the heaven above, Pure angel gentle as love-" I wish they would keep it iu heayen-not throw So much down earth of that beautiful snow. Gentle as love? how they say so? See how it stcks-lt will go. And still vel be blessed with dd beautiful snow"

Stomach Sufferers
Squander Millions
In Search of Relief
Trial Package of Stuart's Dyspepsia
Tablets Free.

Tablets Free.
The world is full of disorderea
stomachs and 80 per cent of the mon
ey spent upon physicians and drugs
goes in an attempt to cure the stom-
ach.
People are made to believe that in
order to gain health they must doctor
their stomachs and use cathartics. So
the doctor gets his fee for the stom-
ach treatment and the druggist for the
are exhausted and yet no cure.
Let's be reasonable. ~
The sick stomach is in every case
the result of over-eating, hurried mas
ticatiOn and improper choice of foods.
The mucous lining all the way down
the food tract loses its sensitiveness,
and when food is forced down the
muscles fail to respond. They do not
churn the food as they should. The
glands no longer give out gastric juice
to dissolve the food and render it cap
able of assimilation. The man has
become dyspeptic.
There is one sure way and only one
to bring positive relief. Put into that
stomach of yours the very elements
that it lacks to get that food into liq-
uid form. It takes pepsin, diastase,
golden seal and other ferments to ac-
complish this. The healthy stomach
contains these elements. The dys-
peptic stomach lacks part or all of
tASul. OtudIl Dyspepsia label Is
made up of just what the dyspeptic
stomach lacks-nature' digestives.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are not a
medicine, not a drug, not cathartic.
They do not cure anybody of anything
but Dyspepsia and Indigestion and
such ailments as arise from poorly
digested food.
While they digest the food the stom-
ach recuperateS. The mucous mem
brane is coming out of its stupor, the
gastric juice is coming to the surface,
the muscles are regaining their power
Every organ of the body takes on new
life, the skin gains color, and the eyes
are no longer tinged with yellow. You
live.
Why doctor and why drug yourself?

care of your food while Nature cures
you.

SCORE LONDON POLICE.
New York Authorities Can Not Con-
ceive of Foreign Incident Here.

New York. Jan. 5.-The manner in
which American police are likely to
regard the efforts of the London po-
lice in dealing with their two anarch-
list foes on Tuesday is indicated by in
tervieWs with a number of New York
police officials published here today.
These officials declare unanimously
that there never was a time in the
history of any big American city when
such thing could have occurred.
81 can not conceive of few men
getting into a house in New York, bar
Reading themselves and so haraSSing
the police that troops would have to
be called OUT said Inspector Will
New York force for thirty odd years.
eff the affair resolved itself into a
shooting match, the police would be
more than able to hold their own"
THE story from London reads to
me like a poor fairy tale" said Inspec-
tor Brooks. "Such a thing would be
impossible in any American city. Six
policemen from any precinct in New
York could have gone into that Lon
don house with their night sticks and
taken those fellows out of it and prob
ably without bloodshed 1t is all right
to argue that the London policem en-
were not armed with revolvers, but
that does not make any difference to
the men in New York They would
go in with or without firearms"
why did not the Londoners call
out the warships?" asked Inspector
Thompson, when his opinion of the
London affair was sought New York
police laugh at the idea of troops and
firemen being called on for assistance
against a lone pair of offenders. If it
took a thousand policemen, together
with troops, firemen and gatling guns
to arrest two men in New York, the
force would get a pretty thorough
overhauling in a minute. If we had
those two anarchists here we would
send the policeman on the post after
them single handed. If he could not
get them he would call for the re-
serves, and they would batter down
the door. There would not be many
shots fired before the prisoners were
in hand

PRAYS in HER SLEEP.
Husband Declares Woman Wants Rest
Rather Than Divorce.

Kansas City, Jan. 5.-Another of
those fine divorce problems has been
unfolded for the solution of Judge
Thomas ]. Seehorn of the circuit court.
1t is this:
IF wife prays so much for her hus-
bands reformation that it becomes a
habit she follows even in her sleep and
then, after all this, sues for divorce,
who is to blame?''
Mrs. George Humirchouse told on the
witness stand that her husband drank
and that she prayed, in his presence
and out OF it, for perpetual water
wagon. The husband says his wife
even prayed in her sleep and he had to
go elsewhere in the house to get rest,
The wife wants a divorce The hus-
band is happy as it is and wishes no
separation.

DEFENDS THE NOVEL.
Wife Suing for Divorce Declares They
Didn't Interfere With Work.

Kansas City, Jan. "a wife has a
perfectly good right to read all the
novels she wants to, SO long as she does
her homework, is the opinion of Mrs.
Lena BuchS,, wife of Albert BuchS, {,
dairyman at F'orty-eighth street and
TrOOSt Ovenue, whom she has sued for
divorce, and when a husband compeis
his wife to live on a dairy farm, for
bids her to have company and even
locks the room in which is the tele-
phone to keep her from talking to
friends, then wife is justified in read
ing anything and everything she can
get, Mrs. Buchs believes. What else is
there for her to do?
Mrs. Buchs' divorce suit was tried be-
fore Judge Joseph A. Guthrie in the
circuit court Her petition charged
Albert Buchs with habitual drunken
ness. He filed cross-bill, charging
that his wife was an inveterate novel
reader and that she neglected her
homework to read books of trashy
nature. He also charged her with hav-
ing an ungovernable temper.
Mrs. Buchs on the stand admitted
that she read a great DEAL and ad-
mitted that she once hit Buchs over
the head with a pan Of batter when he
asked for second cup of coffee at
breakfast, but she denied that she ever
neglected her household duties
He refused to come home at night -
she testified. HE drank constantly,
staying away all night, and then would
come home for his breakfast One
morning he drank six bottles of beer
before breakfast, and then he asked for
| a second cup of coffee. That exasper-
| ated me, and I hit him with pan of
| batter"
Mrs. Buchs said that she left her
husband three years ago, and went
back to him, on his promise to give her
$40 a month for pin money. He paid
her for two months, and then quit.
They were married ten years ago and
have three children. She now is living
with her parents in Kansas
