When tho
 Stomach Stops
Working Properly, Because There Is Wind It It, Use Stuart's Dyspepsia
 Tablets to Set It Going Again
A Trial Packare Free

The doctors call it hatulency, but unprofessional folks know it as "wind on the stomach" and a. most distress Ing state of things it is. It is a se- rt0us condition of this great motor organ. Always annoying and painful In the extreme. at times often leading to bad and fatal results. The stomach embarrassed and hampered, with wind cannot take care of ifs food properly and indigestion follows, and this has a train too appalling to enumerate. The entire system is implicated-made an active or passive factor in this trouble and life soon becomes questionable boon.
 All this is explained in doctor books: how undigested food causes gases by fermentation and fomenta- tion in which process some essential fluids are, destrdyedRkQfnt up-wast- e& by cHsmical action, fdffowed by de- Active nutrition and the distribution through the alimentary tract of chem ically wrong elements and as a conse- quence the stomach and entire system Is starved.

They attack the gas-malxing foods and render them harmless. Flat ulency or wind on the stomach sim- ply canont exist where these power full and wonderworking little tablets are in evidence.

It would make mention of the different stomach correctives that enter into this tablet and make it faithfully rep resent all.
 stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are not aiine intended for the sick, but well feIks as well; for the person who heartily and run no risk of bad ef- fpcts, they act like a charm and make eating and digestion delight and pleasure.

In his Winona speech Mr.. Taft
said: 1T is the one important

Neither Mr.. Taft nor the tariff
board can change schedules or

ness of congress. The tariff board
has no. even the power to
compel the giving of testimony.
By the Payne-Aldrich law the
president was authorized to
employ three experts TO assist him
in applying the maximum and
minimum duties.

can in both branches, refused to

Taft has made the tariff the issue

the high protCcIionists that stand
pat on the Payne-Aldrich tariff,
its defects and its instances Of
injustice. By his single act he has
prevented revision Of indefensible
duties. Solely by reason Of his
veto the worst abuses Of the tariff
are preserved and the people are
denied the relief they we're justly
led TO expect.
