business men should take a more

HOTEL ENTERTAINING
Guests of the St. Regis May Enter
tain Friends There as Per-
fectlY as at Home.

Formerly all hotel life spelled cheer
lessness,'' and conditions have changed
but little to-day in that class of hotels
where the rooms consist of straight rows
of narrow. comfortless.-a and box-like bed
rooms. At the st. Regis, located at Fifth
avenue and Fifty-fifth street, New York
City-admittedly the most exquisitely ar
ranged and furnished hotel in America
the features of hotel living with home
comforts and privacy, and facilities for
the entertainment of friends, have been
carried to an extent that places this
hotel in class by itself. A week or
month spent in the metropolis during the
opera season. the horse show, at Easter,
and at other times will be much more
fully enjoyed IL one is able to make some
suitable return for the hospitalities OF
resident friends. At the st. Regis this is
possible under conditions equal II not
superior. to those OF the highest class
private residences. Guests are afforded
facilities for entertaining friends in any
manner that heart can wish. from a quiet
tete-a-tete luncheon to an elaborate for
NAL dinner. The st. Regis restaurant has
no superior in all the world in quality of
food. skill in preparation, and perfection
of service: while the charges are no
higher than those of other ffrst-class ho-
tels. Transient guests coming to New
York and stopping at the Hotel st. Regis
will find accommodations OF the very
highest grade in every particular and at
standard rates. Single rooms are g and

CAREER OF TRAGEDY
HAS TRAGIC ENDING
HarrisOnburg Mans Body Is
Found in Wilderness.

Harrisonburg. Va. Feb. 14.-The story
of the life of John r. Gilmer. whose
mangIed body was found Sunday by
dogs in a remote hollow on the Blue
Ridge Mountains. reads stranger than
fiction.
When twenty years Of age he enlisted
In the Twenty-second Brigade of United
States volunteers. On his way to the
Philippines his transport was wrecked in
the Pacific Ocean. Gilmer and his COM
panions had thrilling escape. In the
Philippines Gilmer marched through
murky swamps under the pitiless sun,
stood guard at night in water up to his
arm pits, and endured untold hardships.
At the close of the Philippine hostilities
he was advanced n rank for faithfulness
and bravery.
On his return to a station in Texas he
was in a railroad wreck. score OF
persons were killed and Gilmer almost
alone escaped almost unhurt. While in
service he developed tuberculosis and
was sent to the government sanatorium
in New Mexico. In 1902 he was honorably
discharged and came back to his home
in Rockingham almost a physical wreck.
Eighteen days ago his relatives here
thought that he had gone back to Texas.
He was last seen leaving the Virginia
Hotel in Elkton.
Sunday morning while W. A. Shook
was rambling through the Blue Ridge
Mountains his dogs found the dead body
OF Gilmer. With all the flesh eaten and
torn from the face, body. and arms and
legs, the skeleton presented CHASTITY
sight. For two weeks bird and beast
had fed on the body. The body was
buried yesterday by the side of his par
ents near McGaheysville, Rockingham
County.

CATARRH OF THE STOMACH
A Pleasant, Simple, but Safe and Effec-
tual Cure for It.

Catarrh of the stomach has long been
considered the next thing to fncurabIe
The usual symptoms are a full or bIost-
ing sensation after eating, accompanied
sometimes with sour or watery risinpS
q formation of gases, causing pressure
on the heart and lungs and difficult
breathing, headaches, tickle aDpetite
nervousness, and general played-out,
There is often a foul taste in the mouth.
coated tongue, and if the interior of the
stomach could be seen it would show 4
Shiny, infiamed condition.
The cure for this common and ohsti-
nate trouble is found in a treatment
which causes the food to be readily
thoroughly digested before it has time TO
ferment and irritate the delicate mucous
surfaces Of the stomach. To secure A
prompt and healthy digestion is the one
necessary thing to do. and when normal
digestion is secured the catarrhal condi-
tion will have disappeared
According to DR.. Harlanson, the safest
and best treatment is to use after each
meal a tablet composed of Diastase.
Aseptic Pepsin, little Nux, Golden Seal
and fruit acids. These tablets can now
be found at all drug stores under the
name of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets and
not belng patent medicine, can be used
healthy appetite and thorough digestion
will follow their regular use after meals
The plan OF dieting is simply another
name for starvation and the use of pre-
pared foods and new-fangled breakfast
foods simply makes matters worse, as
any dyspeptic who has tried them knows
AS DR.. Bennett says, the only reason i
can imagine why Stuart's Dyspepsia Tab
lets are not universally used by every
body who is, troubled in any way with
poor indigestion is because many people
seem to think that because a medicine
is advertised or is sold in drug stores or
is protected by trademark il must be
a humbug. whereas as a matter of truth
any druggist who is obseryant knows
that Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets have
cured more people of cataTh of the
stomach, indigestion, heartburn, heart
trouble, nervous prostration, and rum
down condition generally than all the
patent medicines and doctors prescrip-
lions for stomach trouble combined
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets is the safest
preparation. as well as the simplest and
most convenient remedy for any form OF
INDIGESTION, catarrh of the stomach, bill
iousness sour stomach. heartburn, and
,bloating after meals.

STARVATION VOW
IF PRIEST LEAVES
Russian Fanatics Spend Day
and Night in Church.

Tsaritsyn, Government of Saratov. Rus
sia, Feb. 14-Fanatical scenes are wit
messed here, where the whole Greek Cath
olic parish is suffering seh-imposed
deprivations in protest against the trans
fer to another parish of the priest, He'll
odorous, the teactionary leader.
Recently the holy synod announced the
transference of the priest from Tsaritsyn
to the diocese of Tula. The announce
ment threw the parishioners into a re-
ligious frenzy, and with HeliodorOus they
took a solemn VOW not TO eat, sleep, or
drink until the order of the holy synod
had been rescinded. Thousands of per-
sons are cooped up in the church where a
service with lighted candles continues un-
interruptedly day and night Many of
the wOrshipers are on the point of suffo-
cation, and the suffering of all is dis
treSsing to witness.
Heliodorous is a peculiar character. In
1907 he was credited with leading the
Black Hundreds" the lower stratum of
the reactionary forces in VOronezh prov
ince. He is bitterly anti-Semitic and pa
triotic TO a degree that has been described
as insanity. He is not only followed
hlindly by those among whom he minis
ters. but frequently has been the recipient
of marks of favor from Emperor Nicho-
las.
Father 'Eliodore took oath before the
altar to starve to death rather than quit
Tsaritsin. He has already remained on
the steps of the altar for five days and
nights fasting and praying in the presence
of a huge fasting congregation, which
joins in his prayers. Many of them have
become religiouSly demented The story,
which has been telegraphed throughout
Russia, has greatly agitated the pious.
All the conservative associations in the
country are chaInpioning Father Eliodore
and they have sent a telegraphic petition
to the Car to allow him to remain at
Tsaritsin. The remarkable displays of
religious frenzy will apparently compel
some action by the government
