BRAIN FOOD.
Is of Little Benefit Ulricas It la
Digested.
Nearly everyone will admit that na
n nation we cat too much meat nnd' too
little of vegetables nnd the grains,
For business men oluce men and
olerlti', and In fact everyone engaged In
sedentary or Indoor occupations, grains,
milk nnd vegetables are much more
healthful.
Only men engaged In severe, out
door manual labor can'llvo on a heavy
meat diet and continue In health,
As a general rule, meat once a day Is
sulilelent for nil classes of men, women
and children, and grains, fruit and
vegetables should constitute tho bulk
of food eaten.
But many of tho most nutritious
foods are dilllcult of digestion, and it
Is no use to advise brain workers to
eat largely of grains and vegetables
where the digestion Is too weak to as
similate thcin properly.
It is always best to get the best re
sults from our food that some simple
and harmless digestive should bo taken
after meals to assist ihe relaxed di
gestive organs, and several years ex
perience have proven Stuart's Dyspep
sia Tablets to bo a very safe, pleasant
and effective digestive and a remedy
which may be taken dally with the
best results.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets can hardly
be called a patent medicine as they do
not act on the bowels nor any par
ticular organ but only on the food
eaten. They supply what weak
stomachs lack, pepsin diastase, and by
stimulating tho gastric glands increase
tho natural secretion of hydrochloric
acid.
People who make a daily practice of
taking one or two of Stuart's Dyspepsia
Tablets after each meal are sure to
have perfect digestion which means
perfect health.
There is no danger of forming an
Injurious habit as tho tablets contain
absolutely nothing but natural diges
tives; cocaine, morphine and similar
drugs have no place In a stomach medi
cine, and Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets
are certainly the best known and most
popular of all stomach remedies.
Aide your druggist for a fifty cent
package of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets,
and after a week's use note tho Im
provement in health, appetite and nerv
ous energy.

Love vs. Ambition.
Attorney James Lownsdnle was a
self-centered man. That Is apt to be
the case with self-made men. It Is, to
be more frank, their besotting sin.
He had begun Ufc poor. He was win
ning in the racCbecausc his handi
caps were offset by grim and somewhat
unlovely determination. When he was
sixteen years old ho bad heard boys of
seventeen discourse on love, and be had
said in a shrill, boyish treble: "I'll
never let sentiment stand in the way
ot my success."
Even after his voice had undergone
tho transformation from that shrill
treble to a profund bass, bo bold to
bis determination. Now ho was 3S and
he "was talked of" for Judge of the
Supremo court In bis state.
For five years lie had been giving
his legal udviee free to Sirs. Mary Slar
ston and her daughter, Mildred. They
bad needed such advice sorely, for when
the vice president of the Commercial
bank died it was found that the affairs
of the bank were in a precarious con
dition. Ten days after his death tho
bank failed. James Lownsdalc called
to condole with tho widow and her
daughter, and had offered to do what
ho could to make Intact ugaln the shat
tered fabric of their fortune. He had
no idea of how great the task was, and
ho found himself knitting together a
few shreds instead of a mass. Ho dis
liked his task of telling her so, but ho
found courage to tell her one night that
one might live upon the Income of the
slight' remnant of their fortune; it
might support one with rigid economy.
But two? That was impossible.
Slildred Slarston slipped a comforting
arm on her mother's neck.
"That will provide for you, mamma,
dear," she said. "And I've gotten a
position at a living salary with a pub
lishing house."
James Lownsdalc looked at her at
tentively for the first time. One of tho
characteristics of self-centered persons
is that they are short-sighted. He had
known the banker's family ever since
he left college, but he had never no
ticed that Slildred had grown up. She
was a tall beauty, of the Irish type,
with black hair and violet eyes that
might have laughed at one time, but
looked as though they never would
again.
James Lowns'dale called often that
winter. Perhaps his purpose was to
lighten the loneliness of the two wo
men, but if he permitted himself such
unselfishness he was compensated. He
found It very pleasant to sit opposite
Slildred at the fire and watch her deft
bands at her embroidery or sewing.
"You make me very comfortable,"' he
said, smiling lazy thanks as she pushed
a hassock toward him.
She applied herself diligently to hem
ming n tablecloth.
"I like this," he reflected aloud. It's
so domestic."
Slildred blushed. She never talked
much. Lownsdnle hud a fancy for
Utiiet women.
"I lovo you," ho said, pushing the
tablecloth from her lap and taking
both the busy hands. Again she said
nothing. Sho blushed furiously, and
there were tears In her eyes, but th"re
was hapiness In them, nevertheless.
"I love you, hut I have my way to
make still, I have no right to talk of
marriage yet."
Slildred was satisfied. There was
a soporific influence In those familiar
but delightful words, "I lovo you."
Lownsdnle did not think It necessary
to repeat those words. "When u man
tells a woman once Unit ho loves her
that is enough,"- he said. So life went
on as before,
Ho it befell that Mlldrc'd Slarston
was often lonely. Her mind became
the stalking ground of doubt and re
sentment. Her business life was a
narrow one, Into which few strangers
entered, Her old friends had drifted
out of her life, Sho met almost no
one. That may be the reason that" no
one else found place lu this sore heart,
which was almost as easy of access as
an empty one.
AVhen midsummer came and with It
Slildred'H vacation she bade I.owns
dttle n rather formal "good-bye," and
said she was taking her mother to tho
homo of an old friend, one of her few
friends of their prosperity who re
mained, Accordingly, when I.ownsdalo wus
strolling along tho beach at an almost
unknown seaside resort, ho was sur
prised to seo n graceful, rather weary
llguro leaning against u rock. Sud
denly It dropped Its head Into tin
broad lap of u burly woman servant
and began to weep teiuptestuously.
He nuido hurried excuses to his enm
paulim, Judge Soiners, and hastened
back
"Slildred!" he exclaimed.
Tho llguro straightened Instantly and
tried to look formal nnd dignified, but
its lips quivered us n child's,
"You, too, Slagglo?" ho said to Slll
dred's nurse, tho only servant left of
what hud been called Slnrston's re
tinue. "Yes," said Muggle, looking at him
with marked disfavor.
.Suddenly he remembered that Slug
gle had looked ut him lu the same way
for two years, only ho "had not no
ticed." "It Is getting chilly; will you go up
to tho house and get Sllss Slarston's
wrap?" ho said.
Slagglo went away frowning. When
she hud gono Lownsdalo took the trem
bling llguro Into his urms.
'How do you happen to be hero, Mil
dred?" he said tenderly.
