He Nervous Dyspepsia To Gain Flesh, to Sleep Well, to Know What Appetite and Good Digestion Mean. ,MAKU A TEST OF STUART'S DYSPEPSIA TABLETS. Xo trouble Is moio common or more mlsundei stood than nervous djspepela. People having it think their nerves are to blame and nie suipiised that they are not cured by nerve medi cines The leal seat of the mischief Is lost elgnt of. The stomach Is the oigan to be looked aftei. Nervous dyspeptics often do not have any pain whatever in the stomach, nor perhaps any of the usual symp toms of stomach weakness Nervous dyspepsia shows itself not In the stom ach so much as In neaily every organ. In some caees the heart palpitates and Is Irregulai ; in others the kidneys are affected, in others the bowels aio constipated, with headaches; still oth- PROr. HENRY W. BECKER, A.

How he found relief Is best told in his own words; "Some weeks ago my brother heiul me say something about Indigestion, and taking a box from his pocket said "Try Stuart's Tablet." I did. and was promptly relieved. Then I Investigat ed the nature of the tablets and be came satisfied that they were made of Just the right things and In Just the right proportions to aid in the assim ilation of food. I heaitlly endorso them In all respects, and I keep them con stantly on hand." The slight cough may soon become deep-seated and hard to cure. Do not let it settle on the lungs.

At the annual meeting of St. Joseph's society an exhaustive leport was made by the concspondlng seciotaiy, Mrs. I. J. Horan, of Dunmore. Repoits weie submitted by other officers. Tho report of the treasuier, Mrs. F. W. Gunstor, Is .summat ized as follows: Balance, Jan. 12, l&RS, $9,360 83; lectlpts during the year, $1,309.40; total, $10,870 -29; expenditures, $9,254 21; balance, Jan. 11, 189S, $1,610 OS. It should be explained that the laigo sum for ex penses Include S1.42S.95 paid to Con tractor John Colllgan, $23b.C2 to the architect and $200 on the renl estate ac count, all Involved In the election of tho new homo. Incorporated In Mrs. Horan's teport are the following facts: "The lepoit of the executive com mittee shows that during the jear eigh teen ninety-eight, thirty-six women and girls were taken fiom dives of infamy or rescued from impending danger and sent to the Houhe of the Good Shep- heid, ninety-live destitute infants wero sent to St. Joseph's Home; thirty were since taken out by frlend, who now feel competent to take care of them, nine children were sent to St. Patrick's Orphan nsjlum; twelve lncoirlglble children wero sent to reformatoiles In New York, Philadelphia and Buffalo, employment was found for a largo numbei of women nnd good homes for six children. "By the efforts of the executive com mittee, llfteen unfortunato women wero carried thtough a trying period. The thanks of tho society are due to tho Lackawanna and Hahneman hospitals foi the assistance they rendered In car ing for the latter class." As a esult of collections In tho chinches of this diocese on a stated Sunday, $11,758 99 was secured and turned over to the treasurer and it was at once uetermlned to begin the erec tion of a foundling home to succeed the utterly inadequate establishment on Jefferson avenue, which under many disadvantages had been used for car rying on the noble work of sheltering destitute Infants. Plans were epeedlly approved, and on Juno S the contract was nwarded to Colllgan Brothers. Work has had to bo temporarily aban doned owing to a lack of funds, only enough being on hand to assure tho payment of necessary expenses The building has been started on land donated by tho Pennsylvania Coal company tnrough the late John B. Smith. RATES ARE NOT TOO HIGH. Opinion of sJudge Edwards in tho Wilkes-Barre Water Case. Tho complaint of the city of Wilkes Barre against the Spilng Brook Water company madn through an eqtty suit that was heard by Judge Ddnards, was dismissed on Satuulay In a lengthy opinion which was filed with tho pro thonotary of Luzerno county. Wllkes-Barro was being furnished a meagre and unwholesome water sup ply up to 189i5, when the Spring Brook Water company with Scranton capital ists nt its head, absorbed tho Crystal Spring nnd Wllkes-Bnrre water com panies, which had been furnishing Wllkes-Barre with water. Now re servoirs were built, new sources of sup ply secured and many other improve ments made all of which resulted in Wllkes-Barre getting an excellent and abundant water supply. Thcjiow company raised Its rates to meet ihe expenses of these improve ments nnd the cltv went Into court with a bill in equity to prevent this. Judge Edwards decides that tho company's charges aio not only not unreasonably high, but that they are actually much less than tho company under the law would be warranted in making. Tho annual revenue is less than G per cent, of tho toal value of the property. "Water companies," the Judge says, "are entitled to a rate of return, if their property will earn It, not less than tho legal rate of Interest; and a system of charges that yields no more Income than is fairly required to maintain the plant, pay fixed charges and operating expenses, provide a suitable sinking fund for the payment of debts, and pay a fair profit to the owners of the prop erty, cannot be said to bo unreasonable and will bo sustained by the courts." The bill Is dismissed at the con of the city of Wllkes-Barre. NOT SO TERRIBLE. Al. Reeves' Turk Couldn't Get a Fall Out of Atlas. Al. Reeves' Tuik, Morad All, failed to throw Atlas In the stipulated fifteen minutes at the Gaiety theater Saturday night. A very large crowd saw tho contest, which was not a clever ono from the professional standpoint, al though it furnished oppoitunlty for piodlglous effort on the part of both men. A large ciowd, containing many lovers of athletics, saw tho bout. The contest was not long In progress before It via, apparent that the Turk's big, but lean and bony, make-up con tained less nglllty than was supposed. He first sought the mat and the de fensive and had to twist his neck out of several holds which could never have been secured on a clever man. He finally became fiee and forced Atlas to the mat and wasted nearly six min utes in a clunisj endeavor to get a hold on hie opponent Once he suc ceeded and obtained a half-Nelson, but Atlas twisted out of It most beautifully. After twelve minutes Atlas, evident ly seeing the futility of gaining a fall by ordinary holds on so muscular a man, began trying for any old kind of a hold on tho Turk"' neck, chin or throat. He secured thiee, and had the Turk's face led, black and white by turns, but the lattei alwas managed to free himself about the time the au dience expected him to gasp and go down. The time-limit Expired with At las in possession of a dangerously beau tiful strangle hold Although the Turk was evidently ex pected to gain a fall. Atlas uncon sciously put a little Irony into the affair bv advancing to the footlights and apologizing foi not throwing the Tutk. Atlas said- "I'm sorry I couldn't do It In the fifteen minutes, I could, but he's too big and strong." Con Reilly, niinagr for Doc Pavne. the fighter, wa referee, a strangei i Held the clock for Atlas, and Reeves pel formed that o(llce for hla not veiy tenihle Tuik.

" For several years I had no cessation ot the aufferlne caused by catarrh. I had a sense of fullness in the head and ringlnc in my ears. One ot my nostrils was tightly closed so I could not breaths through it, and I could not clear my head. I tried several catarrh cures, but failed to get relief. Seeing accounts of cures by Hood's SarsaparllU I determined to give it a fair trlaf. After taking a few bottles I was satisfied it had effected a cure, for the oatarrh no longer troubled me a par ticle and I felt better in every way than for years.
