Stomach Trouble and Make Meals a Pleasure. When your stomach goes on a strike and mass meetings of indignation are held all over your body, then it is that you should sit up and take notice. It is clearly and only a question of common sense is tnis ming called Dys pepsia. Take away, by abuse, over eat ing, excesses and high living, the thing which the stomach needs and you have dyspepsia and indigestion; then other maladies follow those this, is common sense. The stomach Is willing enough but you won't let it do its work. You take away the materials which are so neces sary for it to use. Give back these materials and dys pepsia and Indigestion flee and the whole machinery of man begins slowly to move and do Its work. What the stomach needs is nerve forge, fluids for its digestive glands.1 nourishment and Dower. All these ne cessities it takes from j"fhe blood. Tf dyspepsia gives nothing to the blood, the blood gives nothing to the stomach. This is common sense also, pure, simple and unalloyed. Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are com mon sense pressed by high power into tablets. In these tablets are powerful essences which go Into the stomach, digest food, stop gas making, prevent decaying of food, enrich the gaatrio Juices, are -absorbed by the blood and thus give It strength to furnish a bet ter fluid for digesting the next meal. Every physician knows what comprise these tablets: every druggist has the same knowledge also. They are natural' common sense digesters which do the work for the stomach quickly and well.

OLD SCHOOL "KINKS" TO BE KNOCKED OUT Cube Root and, Useless Puzzles Face x Elimination in Grammar Grades Commission Decides. Philadelphia, Dec. 16. Cube root and aliquot parts, circulating decimals and complex fractions. In fact, all the tor turing nonessentials of arithmetic, will be eliminated from public grammir schools. The code commission, appointed by Governor Edwin S. Stuart to regulate state school legislation, which is in ses sion here at the Hotel Watson, put the ban on superfluous educational kinks. "Wo will recommend laws to simplify education." said Martin O. Brumbaugh, one of the members of the commission, "and make it vocational rather than uselessly technical. "State Superintendent of Schools Na than ( Schaeffer has been authorlxed to revise the curriculum and set a min imum standard of studies. History, arithmetic, grammar and many other subjects will be shorn of their terrors for pupils. "In teaching history the social devel opment of the country will be empha sized. All the bloody details of battles will be omitted; the child will not have to recite-a meaningless string of dates and be required to know how many men were killed and maimed on every battle field. "In arithmetic a lot of superfluous rule.f- ran be dispensed with that Inter fere with the true understanding of the subject. Grammar, too. can be simpli fied For Instance, it is not necessary, ia order to speak correct English, that a person should know what a pronomi nal adjective Is, or quote the rule on in finitives used as nouns." While simplifying grammar school courses, the commission will insist on rigid requirements for teachers' examina tions, and will bring the country schools up to the standard of those of the city. Vocational education will be insisted on and farm schools and manual-training courses will be', recommended In rural sections. , " , MeUcer jyta your ayes for SI. i Your CWmas Tree will not be complete without . a certificate of a year's sub scription to ST.
