the hands of tho fraternity. It will
not be a difficult matter to organize,
but wo apprehend that it will require
a greater amount of vigilenco and
energy to see that the rate is honestly
enforced by the members of the asso
elation after it is organized. An asso
ciation haB been formed in Schuyl

almost impossible to get the members
to carry out their promises. If
Brother Maloy's plan will secure this,
thero is no good reason why the asso

THEY RIDICULE IT.
MANY PEOPLE RIDICULE THE IDEA OF AN
ABSOLUTE CURE FOR DYSPEPSIA
AND STOMACH TROUBLES.
Ridicule, However, Is Not Argument and
Facts are Stubborn Things.
Stomach troubles are so common and in
many rases so obstinate to cure that people are
apt to look with suspicion on any remedy
claiming to be a radical, permanent cure for
djspeia and indigestion. Many such pride
themselves on their acuteness in never being
humbugged, especially on medicines.
Tills fear of being humbugged may be
carried too far; so far, in fact, that many
persons suffer for years with weak digestion
rather than risk a little time and money in
faithfully testing the claims of a preparation
so reliable and universally used as Stuart's
Dyspepsia Tablets.
Now Stuart s Dyspepsia Tablets are vastly
different in one important respect from or
dinary proprietary medicines for the reason
that they are not a secret patent medicine, no
secret is made of their ingredients, but
analysis shows them to contain the natural
digestive ferments, pure aseptic pepsin, tba
digestive acids, Golden Seal, bismuth, by
drastis and nux. They aae not cathartic,
neither do they act powerfully on any organ,
but they cure indigestion on the common sense
plan of digesting the food eaten promptly,
thoroughly before it has time to ferment, sour
and cause the mischief. This is the only
secret of their success.
Cathartic pills never have and never cah
cure Indigestion and stomach troubles because
they act entirely upon the bowels, whereas the
whole trouble is really in the slcruacli.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets, taktu after
meals, digest the food. That is all there is to
Food not digested or half digested is
poison as it creates gas, acidity, headaches,
palpitation of the heart, loss of flesh and ap
petite, and many other troubles which are
often called by some other name.
They are sold by druggists everywhere at
50 cents per paikage. Address Stuart Co.,

ERASTUS CORNING DEFENDED.
Bishop Donne I)onlf Storloi or Ilia
Allowed Hsctrnvngnnoo.
Albany, N. Y., Nov. 17. 'When a few
months ago Ernstus Corning died here,
a reputed millionaire and connected
with many large Institutions, many
newspaper articles appeared claiming
that his money had been extrava
gantly squandered, and that $11,000,000,
left him by his father had disappeared.
From the pulpit of All Saints' cathedral
yesterday Bishop Donne, while men
tioning Mr. Coming's many gifts to
the church, denied these stories and
put the matter In a new light. Ac
cording to Bishop Doane the elder
Corning left very little but encum
beted property for his son. The bishop
said:
"He was a richer man before his
father's death than when he came by
Inheritance Into tho possession of
large property, which was seriously
embarrassed and encumbered. He was
confronted with a problem which tho
average business man would have met
by simply letting mortgages be fore
closed and debts paid by whatever
amount of money he could accrue from
the sale. But his love for his father
and his reverence for his good name
and memory led him at this time to
take a position which was heroic. The
later embarrassment of his fortune was
due neither to carelessness nor lavish
expenditures of money, but to the sen
timent of maintaining tho Institution
which had borne his father's name."
NOT ALWAYS UNDERSTOOD
A fact often overlooked , or not always under
stood, is that women suffer as much from dis
tressing kidney and bladder troubles as the
men. The womb is situated back of and
very close to the bladder, and for that reason
any distress, disease or inconvenience mani
fested in the kidneys, back, bladder or urinary
passage is often, by mistake, attributed to fe
male weakness or womb trouble of some sort,
The error is easily made and may be as
easily avoided by setting urine aside for twenty
four hours ; a sediment or settling is evidence
that your kidneys and bladder need doctoring.
If you have pain or dull aching in the back
pass water too frequently, or scanty supply,
with smarting or burning, these are also con
vincing proofs of kidney trouble. If you have
doctored without benefit, try Dr. Kilmer's
Swamp Root, the great kidney remedy. The
mild and the extraordinary effect will surprise
you. It stands the highest for its wonderful
cures. If yon take a medicine you should take
the best. At druggists fifty cents and one dol
lar. You may have a sample bottle and
pamphlet, both sent free by mail. Mention
IIi:rald and send your address to Dr. Kilmer
