The stomach Cannot Rest.

II is mistake to suppose the stomach
can rest and thus recuperate and by this
means dyspepsia Is cured. The digestive
process begins in the mouth and does not
end until the food has reached the in.
testines. The salivary glands in the
mouth, the stomach. lower stomach, liver,
spleen. etc, take part il the digestive
process. This process is going on con-
tinously. Think of resting the heart or
the lungs for few minutes, or any other
organ. Pepsin pancreatin, etc. do not
rest the stomach. they digest the residue
of food weak digestive system cannot
digest and thus relieve the body of irri-
tating acids or gas. Rydale's Stomach
Tablets contain just enough Pepsin, and
Pancreatin to do this. They also con-
tain many vegetable tonics and stimulants
for the digestive tract Rydale's Stomach
Tablets cure dyspepsia the only way it
can be cured. Ask as about them. Eli

Compromising With Graft.

Judge Kenesaw Mountain Lands, Of
EChicago, seems to be man of admirable
spunk. It is refreshing to see once in a
while judge who objects TO being trifled
with even by the government.
Three men were indicted in Chicago
upon charges of having defrauded the
government ont Of large sums Of internal
revenue. Il is q ,serious offense. and com
viction carries the possibility. or rather
the certainty Of severe punishmsnt.
One of the three was tried to jury ia

having aided in defrauding the govern
ment ont of 100000 in company with
the other two men.
Then the other two got scared and pro.
posed 10 settle BY paying the government
the revenues withheld by them. 1t

treasury department was disposed to
settle in that way.
Wherefore hedelayed sentence of The

Ipartment settles with the others be will

The people will applaud the stand
