The Stomach welcomes Quick Relief
 A Stuart's Tablet not only aids digestion but it actually does the digesting itself. In other words, it furnishes exactly the same clements for the direction of food as the natural juices of the stomach. The stomach, therefore, Is not called upon to do any of the work except to churn the juices furnished by the tablet and then push the digested food along into the in- testines where it will be still further di- gested and the strength taken up by the blood to be carried to the muscles and nerves of the body.
 So by taking Stuart's Dyspepsia Tab let after a meal you give the stomach the rest 1t needs in which to mend itself and grow we'll again. And you. absolutely prevent the souring of any food, the for nation of any poisonous gases, belching, foul breath or constipation.
 Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets have done more for humanity and have caused more rejoicing than any other one agency that can be named.
 Every druggist everywhere sells and personally recommends Stuarrs Dyspep- sia Tablets. The price is 50 cents per . box. If you first wish to try them a sample package will be sent you free if you write to F. A. Stuart Co.,, 150 Stuart aaldg.. Marshall. Micht

ETOWAH CITIZENS
 PAINFULLY BURNED
When Carbon Lamp Exploded-To Rebuild Hospital at Gadsden.
 Smith on Trial

Gadsden, December 7.-(Special.) )- Through the accidental explosion of a carbon lamp two Etowah county cit izens were painfully burned last night Custer Cookson and Henry Wahlford of Pilgrims Rest, a settlement south of this city some six miles, were at the home of Cookson when a carbon lamp refused to burn and an attempt was made by the men to repair 1t. An other lamp was lighted while the re- pairs were in progress and from this the accumulated gas from the carbon lamp, which was evidently leaking, was ignited and the explosion followed.
 Material Is being assembled for the reconstruction of the Rails hospital which was destroyed by fire some months ago. The new structure will represent an investment of at least s1O,OO0. There is some considerable talk of erecting a county hospital but notk- ing definite has been done in the mat ter.
 Mark Smith, who, on Thanksgiving night, shot and killed Turner Lewis at Alabama City and who was indicted for murder by the grand jury now in ses- ison. was arraigned in court this morn- ing and pleaded mot guilty" He was returned to jail to await trial at the January term of court.

If he would be candidate for city
assessor again this year. After TAX

''No, SIR am not.
'Is this a positive refusal on your
part, Mr.. Hanten," said the newspaper
man. %
1T is and it is not-depending en-

city council expects man to make
the assessment Of Watertown in two
months-then am not candidate
for the Job under any circumstances.
Watertown is getting to be too large
for one man to do this work in less
than six months no matter how many
expert accountants he has to assist
him. What is better still the city
council. ought to hire good man by
the year to look after this assessment
business. The city can get good
man to attend to this matter in good
shape for $1,000 per year and it would
pay the city to do this very thing.

assessor by the year and he gets
