MILLION patriotic voters have reo
I ognized the confusion of our pub
lic politics, and are determined
toinform themselves, and stand like patriots
in the hour of their peril and vote to the best
of their knowledge, for the best interests of
the common people or the whole country. It
means further that every voter wants to
know, not only the doctrines of his own
party, but the views of all other parties and
the reason for the differences Gold, Silver,
Tariff and Free Trade. To this end we have
secured a complete handbook of public po
litical information, edited by Lawrence F,
Prescott, WHICH WE WILL PRESENT TO

A GOOD PRACTICE.
If Yon Vnt a Good Appetite and
Perfect Digestion.
After each meal dissolve one or two
of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets in the
mouth and, mingling with the food,
they constitute a perfect digestive, ab
solutely safe for the. most sensitive
stomach.
They digest the food before It has
time to ferment, thus preventing the
formation of gas and keeping the blood
pure and free from the poisonous pro
ducts of fermented, half-digested food.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets make the
complexion clear by keeping the olood
pure.
They increase flesh by digesting
Penh-forming- foods.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets Is the
only remedy designed especially for the
cure of stomach troubles and nothing
else.
One disease, one remedy, the success
ful physician of today Is the specialist,
the successful medicine Is the medicine
prepared especially for one disease.
A whole package taken at one time
would not hurt you. but would simply
lea waste of good material.
Over six thousand mei and women
In the state of Michigan alone huve
been cured of indigestion and dyspep
sia by the use of Stuart's Dyspepsia
Tablets.

MARKETS AND STOCKS
Wall Street Keview.
New York. Oct. 6. Speculation at the
Stock Exchange today was unusually
quiet, fhe sales of the stocks aggregat
ing only 11X100 shares. The share list
at the opening was inclined to sag on
weaker quotations from London and
the reports from that center of a rath
er disturbed condition of affairs be
cause of politico-conditions. As a re
sult prices here yielded about 4 4? 1
per cent, the Industrials, Internationals
and Manhuttun being prominent in the
reactionary mirfrt-mcnt. Following this
there was a sharp rise in sugar, Man
hattan, tobacco and leather preferred,
but the usuully active stocks continued
to sag. Sugar moved up a little over a
point to 111. Tobacco gained 2 per
cent to G"H on covering of short con
tracts. In the afternoon money sud
denly advanced to 12 per rent and this
started moderate liquidations all along
the line. Near the dose, however, the
quotations dropped back to 3 8 4 per
rent. In the lute decline In stocks
sugar, Chici)gn gns, the Grangers,
Ijouisvlllc and Nashville, Reading and
Manhattan were conspicuous. The de
dine from the highest point of the day
whs equal to yt (io li percent. Manhat
tan leading. Rumors of further gold
imports from Europe at an early dny
were revived. Speculation left off
weak, net changes showing losses of Vi
(fi Hi per cent. Tobacco gained 1 per
