pepsia Tablets.

Mental work uses up energy fast
And energy comes from food. To eat
little or nothing in order to do more
work is a fallacy that has created an
army of dyspeptics. A better plan is
to eat the regular portions OF food
such as make up the average meal and
follow each meal with Stuart's Dys-
pepsia Tablets.
You will then get a double benefit
energy from food and sociability
with meals for as a rule, the light
eater or those who skip meals. get
into a bad habit. a rut. of hermit-lik e
isolation. Do not be afraid of gassi-
ness, sour stomach. heartburn. heavy
feeling or coated tongue after meals.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets arouse the
stomach to secrete the juices neces-
sary to relieve these troubles that so
frequently distress the mental worker.
They contain harmless ingredients
which act with an alkaline effect. so
you may eat the rich things of the
banquet or the savory sausage for
breakfast with utmost freedom
Get a 50-cent box of Stuart's Dys-
pepsia Tablets at any drug store, eat
freely of what you like and you will
do more and better work than on a
skinny diet Try this plan--Adv.

If Trumpeter Gabriel strolls in

ing to lead q procession up Kansas
avenue at a given hour. he'll have to
stage the parade before re gets
press agent" notice-that's all.
Monday Captain Shreves of the
army recruiting service said he was
going to hold a. tank parade just
before press time in the afternoon.
AS the story of any parade is only a
,mimeograph" affair it can be told
a weak beforehand as well as d
week after-if it is staged The
trouble is, Shreves failed to. put on
his show-his tank got a slight in
disposit on-and The State Journal
printed a story it had been held.
Last summer press agent for
Ringing Bros show pulled" the
same stunt. He got The STATE
Journal to print yarn about the
wonders of his pageant and then
failed to deliver the goods.
Hence: Never again.
