Memorial Heivlce fur Mii,.i Wllliml.
A largo number of neonle eathered at
j the Methodist church last evening to
join with tho members of tho W. C. T.
U. in honoring the memory of their lato
leader, Frances E. Willard. Artistic
hands must certainly have had charge
of tho decorations, for they were beauti
ful nnd appropriate. Over the large
vocalion was nn a-ch painted white
on either side of which was draped the
stars nnd strips. In the center were the
gales ajar, through which could be seen
n pure white cross, surmounted by the
crown. At the top of the arch was hung
a picture of the one who has received
her reward. Draped on either side o.'
the platform wero Americnn flags, while
hung in a conspicuous place was a
motto, the dying words of Mies Willard,
"How Beautiful to Be With God." At
one side of the church was tho motto of
the W. C. T. U., "For God and Home
and Native Land," and on a white easel
on the platform wns a life-like picture of
her whose memory they revered. Polted
plants and cut flowers were in profusion,
but it wns noticable that not a sign of
mourning marred the beauty of the pic
ture, for sho had rtquested that for her
no mourning be put on.
The services vero presided over by
Mrs. 0. T. Donnell, acting president of
the local W. C. T. U., and each paper read
was a beautiful tribute to their lost
general nnd bravo ndvocnte. Mis. W.
H. Biggs read the call for memorial ser
vices issued by the Union, and the early
life of Miss Willard was take up by Mrs.
Doan; her life work by Mrs. 10. M. Wil
son ; Kov. Wood spoke of her Christian
character, and Mrs. S. French of her
noble defenso of tho home. Tho papers
wero each well written, and gave to tho
audience n clearer insight into the wealth
of tier character and the greatness of her
woik.
Mrs. .Boynolds recited in a touching
iiianner 'yio Giveth His Beloved Sleep,"
and Miss Myrtle Michell sang "One
S.veetlv Solemn Thought," while tho
anthem by tlio choir, "In Heavenly
Lovo Abiding," nnd tho hymns wero
particularly euited to the occasion.
Kev. Curtis dismissed the audience
with tlio benediction, nnd everyono left
with tho conviction that the moubera of
tho W. 0. T. U. woro not discouraged,
but determined to work with new zeal.

A SIMPLE, HARMLESS REMEDY.
Yet It cures the Worst Onsen of I)J B
pepsla and Indigestion.
Dr. Jennison, who has made a life
study of Btomach trouble, Bays: All
forms of indigeetion really amount to
the samo tiling, that is, failure to com
pletelu digest the food eaten: no matter
whether the trouble is acid dyspepsia or
sour etomach, belching of wind, nervous
dyspepsia or loss of fleBh and appetite;
n person will not have any of them if
the stomach can be induced by any na
tural, harmless way to thoroughly digest
what is eaten, and this can bo done by a
simple remedy which I have tested in
hundreds of aggravated cases with com
pleto succesB. Tho remedy is a combin
ation of fruit and vegetable essences,
pure aseptic pepsin and goldvn seal put
up in the lorm of pleasant tasting tab
lets and sold by druszgiets under the
name of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets
One or two of these tablets should be
taken after meals and allowed to dissolve
in the mouth and mingling with tho
food in the stomach.digests it completely
before it has time to ferment, decay and
sour.
On aclual espciiment ouo grain of
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets will digest
three thousand grains of meat, ej:gs and
similar wholesome foods.
It is safe to say if this wholesome
remedy was better known by people gen
erally, it would bo a national blessing,
as we are a nation of dyspeptics and
nine-tenths of all diseases owe their
origin to imperfect digestion and nutri
tion. Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are not a
secret patent medicine, bat a fifty cent
package will do more real good for a
week stomach than fifty dollars worth
of patent medicines and a person has
the satisfaction of knowing just what ho
is putting into his stomach, which he
is putting into his stomach, which ho
does not know, when widely advertised
patent medicines are used.
