Much of the dieting and treatment
for stomach trouble is worse than the
disease and often aggravates it.
Tone up the stomach to do it's part
rather than cut down the diet to suit a
weak stomach. Reduced nourishment
means reduced strength for the entire
system including the stomach. To re-
store the weak stomach to strength and
health, it must be supplied with plenty
Of pure, red blood, for every act Of
digestion needs healthy blood.

People meet all the requirements of a
good tonic for the stomach because they
are an unequalled blood-builder. The
pure, rich blood which they make slim
ulates and increases the flow of the
digestive fluids, removes any irritability
of the stomach, soothes and strengthens
the nerves, and supplies the stomach

LIQUOR IN POLITICS.

By a majority of 1900 in total vote of
more than IL, 900 the city of Lowell has
adopted a reformed charter after the
Des Moines plan. But it has not done
this with any help from the liquor inter-
ests. On the contrary, the saloon ele-
ment was opposed to the charter from
fear of loss of its political power, and it
exercised its influence to defeat the
charter. In murder case in Atlanta
the other day, in which a man was con-
victed of killing his father and nearly
killing his mother in drunken row, the
presiding Judge mathematical this pow
err in strong terms:
'It is hydra-headed and remorseless
monster, which, with ceaseless and tire
less energy wastes the substance of the
poor, manufactures burdensome taxes
for the public, monopolizes the time of
courts, fills the jails, penitentiaries and
asylums, destroys manhood, terrorizes
helpless women and innocent children,
muffies the church and mocks the law.
Answering its memorable demands each
new morn new widows mourn, new or
phans cry, new wrongs strike heaven in
the face"
"Mocks the law" That is what it
does. 1t is naturally and incorrigibly
lawless. And this is the sort CT thing
which Governor Plaisted proposes to
establish and legalHe in our cities.
Discussing the proposed charter before
the election, the Lowell CourierC Citizen
noted a significant omission in the case
of attacks on the charter. 1t said that
in all the diatribes against the adoption
of the new form of government "not one
reference has been made to the one
I crying curse of all our city politics

the power of rum This silence il
considered explicable only on the
ground "that all the money for al
these rallies. speakers, advertisements
and touring cars" in the anti-chartel
campaign 'shas come from the pockets
of the rumsellers." The reason was
plain enough, The dominant liquor
interest did not want the new
charter at all. 1t felt safer under
the old one. All it had to do was to see
that the right sort of man was elected
mayor and that he selected the right sort
of men for license commissioner. But
there was danger that under the pro
posed form of government it would be
hard for the saloons to control the gov
eminent. Hence plenty of funds were
supplied to defeat reform.
The attempt to defeat it failed, but
the will was there just the same. Ane
