May Be incendiary
Fire in the Same Building Five
Weeks Ago Disastrous

Portland, Me-, March 29.-The fire
in the Gait block warehouse, which
broke out early this morning, was IN
der control this afternoon and is now
being looked after by the fire boat The
number two section of the warehouse
and the mill and grain store of S. w.
Thaxter Co. were destroyed with a
loss of over $4,000. There is a suspi-
cion that the fire was of an incendiary
origin and it will be investigated.
A spectacular fire which for time
threatened a large part of the water
front and caused damage estimated at
more than $4,000 this morning, prac-
tically destroyed the portion of the
Gait block warehouse remaining from
the disastrous fire of several weeks
ago. An alarm from Box 29, followed
closely by a second alarm from the
same box, called many pieces of APP
paratus to the scene and the firemen
made a desperate fight to save the
BUILDING and prevent the clouds OF
sparks from communicating the names
to the buildings in the vicinity.
Craft in the vicinity were removed

st. Petersburg has a murder mys-

the local detectives to solve w. NJ.
Boone, an inoffensive citizen, recent

dered in the heart of st. Petersburg,
and his body was found floating in
the city reservoir two or three days
after this crime was committed. He
had three bullet holes in his head,
his throat was cut and his left wrist
siashed. There was no motive for
the crime, so far as can be discov-
cred. and there is not the slightest
clue to the murderer. The matter is
causing profound sensation in the
beautiful tourist city, and every ef-
fort to bring the perpetrator Of the
foul deed to Justice is being made.
That these efforts will be successful

The Man Who Eats Well
And Enjoys Food, Lives Life as He
Should and Gets the Most From 1t.

The man who eats is the man who
works. and the man who works is the
man who wins. Tireless workers de-
pend upon q storehouse of vim and
vigor. India is noted for it's fasters and
its dreamers, Europe and America for
their eaters and their workers.
In America we have been doing moth
ing but work this past quarter of CEN
tury. That Is why our old men say, In
my days no one had dyspepsia" OF
course, all men in those days ate and
worked, now they work and eat.
If eating interferes with business, men
give up eating. This is good logic for
the dollar getter, but poor wisdom for
the man who really wants to live.
in punishment and man is a pigmy
when it comes to cheating his system.
If you take from the system that
which is intended should remain, or put
into it that which is intended should be
kept out. you are cheating yourself,
and sooner or later pay the penalty.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are con-
centrated vegetable and fruit essences
which give the system every fluid, stim-
ulant and ingredient necessary to gain
which goes into the stomach, or to keep
from the system everything which
should not lay and decay in 1t.
If you will eat fast and improperly
If you will drink and eat irregularly
and to excess, then give to Nature as
you do so enough of the essences she
demands to neutralize the bad effects OF
your habits.
After a meal take a Stuart's Dyspep-
sia Tablet, and the meal won't hurt you
or your stomach.
At a midnight dinner take a Stuart's S
tablet and you will sleep well and get
up without q breath which is filled with
the decay Of the midnight meal.

Three Thousand
Tons of Blood
Pass Through and Are Cleansed by
the Lungs Every Year of a
Mans Life.

The heart pumps three thousand tons
of blood into the lungs every year and
the blood purifies it and sends It back
to the system, where 1t circulates from
the tips of the finger nails to the ends
of the hair In natural life the lungs
purify many tons of blood.
The stomach has to furnish this from
the food which comes into it.
The stomach draws on the blood for
an average of 171s lbs. of digestive
juices every day, or 63S lbs. each year.
This fluid taxes the blood for its best
product and thereby weakens it.
When poor eating, excesseS, late
hours, under or over done cooking, and
scores of other stomach abuses, weaken
the juices and I'LL the blood with acids
and alkalies In wrong proportion, or
make gases of terrible poisonous power,
the system, the blood is impoverished
and the decline of man is rapid.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets mixed with
the saliva after meals go into the
stomach and furnish that organ the
juices it lacks, thereby digesting the
meal without weakening tho blood.
The nourishment thus received goes
into the intestines and is taken up by
the blood The blood is made stronger
and the stomach then has a storehouse
upon which to draw for its supplies
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are but
common-sense elements which give
health to the stomach and permit it
to cure itself. They are not miracles,
or marvels; just plain tablets, which,
though harmless, contain every 1ngre-
dent necessary to digestion.

The Seat OF Life

Which Takes From or Adds to the
Nerve centers Which Depend

Ths stomach is seereted in the mid
die OF man. fortified on every side from

watching nerves. each Of which depends
on this organ for its existence.
When the system needs nourishment
the nerves rouse the stomach and ap-
petite makes man desire food. When
the food is placed in the mouth or stom-
ach the nerves excite the glands TO ex-
ude saliva and gastric fluid.
II. however. man does not give his
stomach what It should have, or the

The stomach gives man the where

Straiuht TaIk From the Stomach

The stomach does not talk like you
would like it to, but you should listen
and you should heed.
When foul breath makes people turn
away from you, when pains and nausea
come and go before and after meals,
when gases distend your abdomen and
affect your heart, when false appetite
and abnormal craving comes to you.
when the sight of a meal makes you
sick and when many other events of
like character happen. your stomach is
talking.
It is trying to tell you that it's peri
static or churning muscles are irritated
and unfit for duty, that alkaii is filling
the stomach and digesting and eating
the membrane within, that the juices
are not doing their work and conse-
quenrly are permitting the food to lie
for hours, eventually decaying and pass
ing to the bowels, where such food is
absorbed in a poisonous state and taken
up by the Emphatic system and the
blood.
stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets viii give
to the stomach all it needs. They will
ease up the peristaltic muscles, they
dilute the alkali juices, enrich them
and digest the food when the stomach
is unable to do so.
Don't say they can not help you. Why.
these tablets will digest a hearty meal
placed in glass tube, without aid from
the stomach.

Do You Sleep Well?

When you can not sleep, and haliuci-

night sweats and nervousness make

liable to be disarranged.
Dyspepsia brings just such nights to
its subjects The stomach Is full OF
food, decaying and forming gases and
poisons.
The peristaltic muscles of the stom-
ach are churning and mixing this mass
of poison, trying 10 digest 1t; this con-
glomeration is Affecting nerves, tissues
and membrane. Is 1t any wonder sleep
won't come or is unnatural?
When the stomach is squeezing and
churning food 1t uses a power that
would almost crush a human hand
should 1t be placed within the stomach.
Imagine a stomach whose muscles are
sore and irrita ted, whose walls are raw
muscles and a poisonous, acrid and de-
caying mass OF food being pressed into
this exposed and irritated surface.

fering nerves can not permit the brain
to rest, and afflict II with startling and
unreal dreams and visions?
