KING TO GUARD

George V. Recalls. Untoward
Omens That Have Fallen on
V Coronation Days.
i London, , Oct $1. King- George Is par-
tlcularly anxious that his cbronatlon cer
kemonles next June should be free from
fcany untoward incident which might be
i construed as ominous. This Is not alone
? because he himself, like all members of
:" his home, Is Imbued with a certain
amount of superstition, but it is Kke
; wise because he is thoroughly aware
i that popular confidence In himself and
v his reign will be shaken in the 'event
of any occurrence at the coronation
Which could be construed as portending

The coronation of Queen Victoria and
King Edward were remarkably free from
anything that could be looked upon by
the. people as a bad omen, though the
v fact that the coronation of King Edward
f had tobe postponed on account of the
illness witlvwhichthe monarch "was sud-
denly stricken led many persons to pre

has occurred. Then the superstitious

to find, since almost every occasion is

This will leave Grant county an

this would . raise over $31,000 in taxes

Food .'taken Into - the Stomach which,
f rom-the nature ofthe foodvor the con
dition of the stomach is not digested,
is worse than no food at all. This is
a true statement as far as it goes and I
a great many dyspeptics-go only this i
far with their reasoning. They argue
with themselves that, because their
stomachs do not do the work given
them, the must be given less work; In
other words, they must be starved. It
would be Just as sensible for a business
man who is "unable to do all his own
work to cut down his business to his
own capacity as It is for a man to
starve himself to relieve his stomach.
The sensible business man employs help
and goes forward with his business.
Likewise the sensible dypeptlc will em
ploy help for his stomach and give his
body proper nourishment
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets actually
do the work assigned to them. They
relieve weak and overburdened stom
achs of ' a. great portion of . digestive
action. Tbelr component parts are
identical with those of the digestive
fluids and secretions of the etomach
and they simply take up the grind and
'carry on the work Just the same as

- Onthla , account Stuart's- dyspepsia
Tablets are perfectly natural in, their
action and effects. They do not cause
any unnatural or violent disturbance
In the stomach or bowels. They them
selves digest the food and supply the
system with all the nourishment con
tained in .what is eaten and carry out
nature's plans lor the sustenance and
maintenance of the body. v,
How much more sensible is this
method than that employed by many
suirercrs from weak stomachs. Bv this
means the body and brain get all the
gooa, nutritious food they need and
the man is properly nourished and
equipped to carry on his work "and
perform his duties. He could not pos
sibly be In proper working condition
by starving himself or employing some
new fangled, insufficient food that does
not contain enough nutriment for a
year-old .baby. A strong man doing
strong worK must be properly fed and
this applies to the brain as. well as
the body.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets, by relJev

to recuperaie ana regain its normal

the worn and wasted tissues Just as she

limb, which, is of course .not used dur

Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are for
sale by all druggists at 60 cents a box
and they are the one article that the

Ellers Music House during the past
weelc There have been busy sale days

tained heretofore in player-piano selling-.
EJvery one of our splendid delivery
' wagons has been busy making deliver

thing at a price that la right," has
been the watchword here always but
our word for It, the player pianos
food ones dependable ones the kind
hat everyone loves and cherishes
were never heretofore obtainable at such
low prices and. what is more, never
heretofore could a player piano be ob
tained on such wonderfully little pay-'
merits. Think of H,, we are tilling a
very fine player piano for 9492. It is
worth tOuO of anybody's money.- How
It is possible for us to do this has been
explained In our Emancipation Sale ad
vertisements, - and seems to be well
understood now. We are wholesaling
pianos to the retail buyer. It is a trans
action based on collective buying, and
the low proportionate cost of operating
forty stores. Another carload of player ,
