If You Could Ooly
Bo o Stomach
You'd Go to Bed Rather Sore at the
Work You'd Have to Do
Fancy a master that works a horse
so long, without rest, that the poor old
beast at last has to go to a bone pile.
Fancy yourself doing the same thing
with your stomach—the noblest of all
our physical organs.
Just imagine yourself devoting
hours of ceaseless work to the diges
tion of a meal which you cannot di
gest because of wrongful ingredients
given to you by the blood.
Is not a man very foolish to imag
ine a raw sick stomach capable of good
work when the juices it receives are so
filled with alkali or acid that they
actually eat the stomach membrane?
Do you not know from a common
sense poiut of view that to continue
such a course means not only the im
pairment of your stomach but of all
digestive organs as well?
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets go into
your stomach just like food. They are
so powerful in health giving qualities
that almost instantly the work of diges
tion is improved. They ease up the
stomach's work. They go into the blood
and balance it perfectly. Thus, when
the stomach calls for new juices at your
next meal you are able to furnish them.
Your common sense will tell you
that so great an aid to digestion as
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets could not
be in every drug store, unless de
manded after trial by all clases of stom
ach sufferers.
N'o more are they a doubtful quality.
They have passed a rigid examination
by all manner of stomach and digestive
tests, and they have been awarded the
diplpma of American patronage. Their's
has been the practical test.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are for
sale at all druggists at 50c a box.

VISITORS AT VALLEY KORfiE
Increase Last Year Partly Attributed to
Autos and Motorcycles
Philadelphia. Jan. S. —.More than
half a million persons visited Washing
ton '« Encampment at Valley Forge
during the 11 months ending with No
vember last year, according to the bi
eunial report of the Valley Forge Park
Commission. This number is 139.462
more than for the corresponding period
of 1913.
In the statistics given in the report
note is made that the greatest increase
in the number of visitors is shown in
the class that visited the historic
ground in vehicles. There was an in
crease of 21,311 persons who came
in motor cars and an increase of 1,503
who came on motorcycles.
Reference is made in the report to
the dedication of the New Jersey anil
Delaware monuments: to the erection
nt' a bronze memorial erected bv Penn
sylvania to Major General Armstrong,
of the Pennsylvania militia. as well as
to the near completion of the memorial
arch erected by the United States.
With reference to this arch, the report
comments that owing to the lack of
appropriation by Congress it has not
yet been transferred to the Common
wealth. and adds: -, lt is hoped that
:t sufficient appropriation* will !>e made
by the Commonwealth to provide for a
transfer with appropriate ceremonies."
The report likewise comments that
since the year 190" no appropriations
for the purchase of additional parts of
the original encampment site have
been made.

TAFT AND SUNDAY MEET
Evangelist Expresses Delight Upon Be
ing Introduced
Philadelphia, Jan. S.—Ex-President
William Howard Taft, stauch repre
sentative of the Unitarian denomina
tion, the s object of "Billy'' Sunday's
most bitter expletives, yesterday warm
ly shook hands with that evangelist in
his room in the Hotel Adelphia, just
before the former went to the banquet
room to the luncheon given to him bv
the Ohio Society.
Sunday was introduced to ex-Presi
dent Taft by John Wanamaker. He
expressed great delight in meeting the
ex-*President. The meetjng was some
thing of a surprise ail around. Neither
Mr. Taft nor Mr. Sunday expected it.
Discussing it later, the ex President
said Mr. Wanamaker told him he and
Mr. Sunday had been talking together,
when it occurred to him to take the
revivalist to the Ad«Lphia.
The conversation between Mr. Taft
and Mr. Sunday ran upon baseball en
tirely, as the former recalled with
pleasure the evangelist's past perform
ances on the diamond that he had wit
nessed. \\ hen asked if any mention
was made of tjie pulpit utterances of
Mr. Sunday against the faith of the
Unitarian Church, of which Mr. Taft is
a member, Mrs. Sunday indignantly re
plied that the introduction of such a
topic in a friendlv conversation would
be a discourtesy that her husband nev
er would dream of committing.
"Why," she said, "Mr. Sunday is
the least controversial of men imagin
able. If he has anything to attack, he
attacks it in public. It was perfectly
natural that he should wish to meet so
distinguished a man as Mr. Taft and
that the conversation should be upon a
subject in which both were interested."

COURT RUN BV BOVS FAILS
Makes "Tattlers" of Youngsters. St.
Louis Judge Decides
St. Louis. Jan. B.—The Junior}
Juvenile Court of St. Louis, in which
young lawyers act as judges and school-!
bovs as police officers, has proved a
failure. The court tended to make j
"tattlers" of the boys it sought to cor '
rect, anil, therefore, will be abolished. ;
This decision was announced Wednes
day night by Judge Rhodes E. Cave, of |
the juvenile court.
The junior court was launched sev- 1
eral months ago as an experiment to !
try boys fdr offenses not serious enough j
for the juvenile court. An offender !
could be sentenced to wash his moth
er 's dishes, carrfl coal or just "to be a I
good boy," but the junior court has no j
authority to compel fulfilment of the j
sentence.
"The boys were quick to see this,"!
Judge Cave declared. Operations of
the junior court and its system of boy !
officials were supervised by municipal j
probation officers and the juvenile'
judge.
