NERUOOS DYSPEPSIA
Not a Patent Cure All, Nor ft Mod
em Miracle but Simply a Ra
tional Cure for Dyspepsia,
tn these days of humhUBgery and de
cent on, tho manufacturers of pntent
medicines, as it rule, seem to think
their medicines will not sell unless they
clnlm that it xVHI cure every disease
t'iSS
under the sun, And they never think
of leaving out dyspepsia and stomach
troiiblps. Thpy am sure to claim that
their nostrum is absolutely certain to
pure px'ory dyspoptlu and he need look
no further.
In the face of these absurd claims It
Is refreshing to note that the proprie
tors of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets have
carefully refrained from making undue
claims of false representations making
undue claims or false representations
regarding the merlls of tills niot ex
cellent remedy for dyspepsia nnd stoni
iipIi troubles. They make but one claim
for It. and that Is, that for Indigestion
nnd various stomach troubles Stuart's
Dyspepsia Tubets Is a radical cure.
They go no farther than this and any
man or woman suffering from Indiges
tion, chronic or nervous dyspepsia, xx'ho
xvill give the remedy a trial xvill find
that nothing Is claimed for It, that
the facts xvill not fully sustain.
11 Is a modern discovery, coipposed
of harmless vegetable Ingredients ac
ceptable to the xvcakest or most deli
cate stomach. Its great success in cur
ing stomach troubles Is due to the fact
that the medical properties are such
that it xvill digest whatex'pr wholesome
food is taken into Hip stomach, no
matter whether the stomach Is in good
xvorklng order or not. It rests the ovor
xvorked organ and replenishes the body,
the blood, tho nerves, creating a
healthy appetite, gives refreshing sleep
and the blessings which nlxx'ays accom
pany a good digestion nnd proper as
similation of food.
In using Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets
no dieting Is required. Simply eat
plenty of wholesome food and take
these Tablets at each meal, thus as
sisting and resting the stomach which
rapidly regains its proper digestive
power, xxiien the Tablets xvill be no
longer required.
Nervous Dyspepsia is simply a con
dition In xvhieh some portion or por
tions of the lierx'ous system arc not
properly nourished. O001I digestion in
vigorates the nervous system and ex'
ery organ In the body.
Any druggist xvill tell you Stuart's
Dyspepsia Tablets give universal satis
faction. St. David's hall on Wednesday ox-ening'
after the "Mabon" lecture. .lust as
the meeting xx-as being closed Walter

Defenders Still Champion.
The long expected meeting of the De

night and the visitors xvere defeated.
The hall xvas packed xvith local en
thusiasts of the game xvho eume with

root for the South Side favorites. Tho
game xvas called at 8.30 p. m. and
xvithln a fexv minutes the St. Clair
team made the Ilrst basket scoring,
two points.
This nerved the local boys and they
started In xvith a vim. Txx'o baskets

point xvas gained on a foul. Shortly
after play resumed Morris, the star
player, xvas injured and had to retire
from the game. A substitute xvas put
iu and each side scored a basket be
fore the end of the Ilrst half, making
