Judge H. B. Abernethy handed out a few packages that were not wrapped up to a number of negro vagrants of the chronic variety that were arrayed before him yesterday at the afternoon matinee of the court of common pleas.
 Four strong. able bodied negroes were arrested on a charge of vagrancy. They were of the type that hang around de white folks yard,' where their better halves earn living for the family. by her skill with the skillet. or acquaintance with the tub.
 They had had several previous inter views with his honor. the judge, who had admonished them that while it was all right to take vacation, provided it did not last too long, 1t was absolutely necessary for them to earn their own

A Box of stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets Is {. Your Best Travelling Companion.

Railroads tell you about the won lders of Nature along their lines; hotels describe their modern accommoda tions; but they never fail to ring in their cuisine unexcelled' The wise traveller knows he is taking pot luck when he leaves home. hence a box of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets Is quite as essential as many of the other travel ing requisites.''
 Thus commented a philosophical travelling man, speaking of hotel life, restaurants, grills and junction lunch counters. "The agitations in this world" he continued. fare the result of one set of men trying to compel the other set to think and act against their own inclinations. It is the same in religion, politics, and eats. I have learned from experience to eat what they serve; to forget the food experts, read the current news and jokes and leave the stomach to the best expert in the world-Stuart's Dyspepsia Tab lets 8y s d.
 And Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets act ually do the work assigned them. They relieve weak and overburdened stom- achs of great portion of digestive action. Their component parts assist the digestive fluids and secretions of the stomach and they simply take up the grind and carry on the work just the same as a good. strong. healthy stomach would do it.
 Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are for sale by all druggists. at 50 cents a box, and they are the one article that the druggist does not try to sell some- thing in the place of it that's just as good" Their unqualified merit and success and the universal demand foI them has placed them within the. reach of everyone. ..

drives out every particle of uric acid and other poisonous impurities that lodge in the joints and muscles and cause rheumatism. It neutralizes the urine so it no longer irritates the bladder, overcomes unnecessary breaking of sleep and restores the kidneys and bladder to health and strength, permanently and positively curing such troubles.
 It matters not how long you have suffered, how old you are or what else you have used The very prin- ciple of Croxone is such that it is practically impossible to take it into the human system without results. There is nothing else on earth like it. It starts to work the minute you take it and relieves you. the first time you use it, and all your misery and suffering soon disappear. You can secure an original package of Crox- one at trifing cost from any first class druggist, such as The Lee x Osgood Co.,, who will personally re- turn the purchase price if it fails in d single case.

While people along in years are naturally more subject to weak kid neys, they can avoid the tortures of backache and rheumatism, and be saved the annoyance of getting up at night with disagreeable bladder dis orders, for the new discovery, Crox- one. quickly cures the most severe and obstinate cases
 Croxone quickly and permanently cures these conditions because it re- moves the cause. It is the most won derful remedy ever devised for rid ding the system of uric acid. It is entirely different from all other rem edies. It is not like anything else ever used for the purpose. Pills, tab lets, and other medicines merely stim- ulate the kidneys, occasionally giving emporary relief Croxone makes the kidneys filter the blood and sift out all the poisonous acids and waste matter that cause these troubles.
 It soaks right in and cleans out the stopped-up, inactive kidneys, like water does a sponge, dissolves, and
