We do not obtain the natural ripened
fruits and vegetables, hence the stom-
ach requires assistance TO digest an
overabunaance of fibrous material and
take care OF fruit acids that Nature
had no chance to convert into grape

the system can supply, more diastase.
more OF the natural tonic and preserv.
alive properties which ripened vegeta-
ton should give us. This deficiency is
made up in Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets
and is the only way to have stomach
health under modern conditions.
Try just one box and you will never
want to be without this wonderful
remedy for stomach troubles. Stuart's
Dyspepsia Tablets contain an ingred-
lent, one grain OF which will digest
5000 grains OF food. They are 80
entirely harmless because they have
absolutely no effect on the system one
way or another except to do Just the
one thing-digest food
Every drug store sells and recon-
mends Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets.
The price is 90 cents per box.

Of
The PHONOGRAPH

The first announcement of the
discovery of the principle Of the
photograph was made by Thomas
A. Edison thirty-six years ago, Nov.
27, 1877. Nearly a century before
the discovery of the great secret by
the American electrical wizard,
German, Russian and Austrian in
ventors had vainly endeavored to
contrive talking machine. -
Their devices were useless, for all
practical purposes, but they point
ed to the possibility of such 3
mechanism. Edison's first phono-
graphs were crude compared with
the marvellous machines of today,
but the germ of the great invention
was there and awaited only devel-
opment. The canned music" of
the phongradh has come in for
much derision, but. the machine
has brought to the homes of the
multitude the voices of the worlds
greatest singers, instrumental
music Of the best class. and the
silver-tongued speech of gifted or
ator.

of talking machine was invented by

The MEXICAN SITUATION

The Baltimore American says
1.-THE Mexican situation is one of
infinite baffienent. 1t is not be-
lieved by Americans generally that
recognition of Huerta at any stage
in the country's recent affairs
would have checked the anarchy
there prevalent. He would never
have consented to the United States
having influence in the country.
He is not statesman, and the
composing of the country's internal
conditions is entirely out of his
scope. Unfortunately, the same
thing can be said of any other
prominent. Mexicans. The proposal
for a commission of Mexicans of the
various factions to take over the
government Of the country is CHI
merical. 1t could only succeed
upon the groundwork Of successful
intervention by the United States"

A REAL ANOMALY

An anomaly was brought to the
fore recently when the labor was
being hired for the Nevada Sugar
company's 1913 campaign. One
hard working man, who walked
from Reno to Fallou buoyed up by
the hope of securing employment
at the factory, broke down and
cried like a child when told he
could not be used; while nearly as
much concern was shown by an
other individual who applied for
work and was denied, who wished
a job that he might earn a suffic-
lent sum with which to meet the
government income tax upon his
income which is, he said, consid-
cradle. Thus it is proven that he
that has, is about as anxious as the
man who has not, to add to his
trash pile. IN: B. Bill Snake
spearc said money was trash and he
was right -Standard.
