nights following, when the fair would
be in full bloom.

DANGER IN SODA. .
Serioas Retail Semclimca Follow
ills Successive Vnti,
Common soda Is all right In Its place
and Indispensable in the kitchen and
for cooking and Stashing purposes, but
it was never Intended for a medicine,
and people who used it as such will
some day regret It.
We refer to the common use of soda
to relieve heartburn or sour stomach,
a habit which thousands ot people prac
tice almost dally, and one which is
fraught with danger; moreover the
soda only gives temporary relief and in
the end the stomach trouble gets worse
and worse.
The soda acts as a mechanical irri
tant to the walls of the stomach and
bowels and cases are on record where
it accumulated In the Intestines, caus
ing death by inflammation or periton
itis. Dr. Harlandson recommends as the
safest and surest cure for sour stomach
(acid dyspepsia) an excellent prepara
tion sold by druggists under the name
of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets. These
tablets are large 20 grain lozenges, very
pleasant to taste and contain the natu
ral acids, peptones, and digestive ele
ments essential to zood digestion, and
when taken after meals they digest the
food perfectly and promptly before it
has time to ferment, sour and poison
the blood and nervous system.
Dr. Wuerth states that he invariably
uses Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets in all
cases of stomach derangements and
finds them a certain cure not only for
"our stomach, but by promptly dijreBt
Ing the food they create a healthy ap
petite. Increase flesh and strengthen
the action of the heart and liver.They
are not a cathartic, but intended only
for stomach diseases and weakness and
will be found reliable in any Btomach
trouble except cancer of the stomach.
All druggists sell Stuart's Dyspepsia
Tablets at ilOcts. per package.
A little book describing all forms of
stomach weakness and their cure mail
ed free by addressing the Stuart Co.,
of Marshall. Mich.
by her husband. William L. Jones. Af
ter denying the charge of misconduct
with Lvmun B. Holsomb, preferred
against her by her husband she goes
on to make the startling statement
that she and her husband, on December
1, 1S5, entered into an arrangement
whereby they were to live apart for the
period of two years that she might
secure a divorce on the grounds of de
sertion and then marry Holcomb, it be
ing ulso agreed between them that he
was to surrender all marital claims
upon her und make no objection to her
abiding with Holcomb during the pe
riod which they would have to wait for
a divorce.
She denies, however, having availed
herself of this latter part of the agree
ment, although her husband, she al
leges, connived with others to influ
ence her to become illegally allied with
Holcomb.
