Can be given why Stuart's Dyspepsia
Tablets.are the best and moBt effectual
cure for every form of indigestion.
They are in Tablet form, which retain
their good qualities indefinitely, while
liquid preparations become stale and
useless with age.
They are convenient, can be carried in
the pocket and taken when needed.
They are pleasent to the taste.
After each meal dissolve one or two of
them in the month and, mingling Vi'th
the food, they constitute a perfect diges
tive, absolutely safe for the most sensi
tive Btomach.
They digest the food before it has time
to ferment, thus preventing the for
mation of gas and keeping the blood
pure and free from the poisonous pro
duct of fermented, half digested food.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets make the
complexion clear by keeping the blood
pure.
They increase flesh by digesting flesh
forming foods.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets is the only
remedy designed especially for the cure
of stomach trouble and nothing else.
One disease, and remedy, the success
ful physician of today is the specialist,
the successful medicine is the medicine
prepared especially for one disease.
A whole package taken at one time
would not hurt you, but would simply be
a waste of good material.
Over six thousand men and wotntn in
the state of Michigan alone have been
cured of indigestion and dyspepsia by
the use of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets.
Sold by all druggists at 50 cents per
package.

Extracts Fiotn a Littler Written By
Thomii Tongue.
The following are a few extracts from
a letter received by Capt. John W. Lew
is, from Thomas Tongue.of Washington,
D. C, which, on account of its length,
we can on! publish In part :
"Your kind letter inviting me to le
present at the 17th annual stateencamp
ment of the G. A. R.. W. R. C. ani
Sons of Veterans, to be h,eld at The
Dalles, May 17tb, 18th ami 19th, was
duly received.
"J regret much that the discharge
of other duties compel me to deny my
self the pleasure of accepting the invita
tion so cordially given. I have met
with your comrades at their annua gath
erings on numerous occasions, and from
their courageous defence of right and
liberty, have sought to instil lessons of
patriotism into the hearts of the pres
ent and coming generations.
"At no meeting since the close of'the
war, have the eyes of the country rest
ed upon you so intently as now. The
lessons taught by your life, your devo
tion to country and flag, your patience
under suffering, your courage in danger,
your willingness to yield life, and limb
it needed, to defend your country and her
flag, and to preserve the blessings of
liberty and union for y ourselves and
your children, were never so needed and
so inspiring as now.
"Our country so long at peace with all
the world has been assailed, her flag in
sulted, 'the lives of her people destroyed,
and the ill-fated Maine, with her wealth
of American manhood, upon a friendly
mission in a friendly harbor, has been
the victim of the most stupendous crime
of the nineteenth century. In this ex
tremity she calls upon her sons to de
fend her honor and her flag, with strong
right arms. From the example of their
sires, we know full well how the sons
will respond. Your past will be the in
spiration for the future. We know what
we can do by what you have dune.
When we recall your heroic struggles,
and those of your comrades, we enter
this contest with full assurance of glo
rious victory. That in the coming con
test, Americans on land, and on sea,
will bear themselves bravely in the face
of danger, will yield up life rather than
honor, will defend country and flag until
the heart ceases to beat, and the right
arm falls ; we know and all the world,
knows, because you and your comrades
Lave done all this. Gettysburg and
Shiloh will be repeated on the plains of
Cuba. The fall of Vicksburg foretells
the fate of Havana. The hero who
achieved a glorious victory at Manila,
waB your comrade, trained in your
school, and went into battle with your
old time courage. Before every battle
our commanders will inspire their men
to noble efforts by recalling your glorious
deeds.
"The work begun by vou to cement
the Union under one flag, will be com
pleted now. In this content we shall
not be arrayed against each other in fra
ternal or eectional strife. Breckenridge,
Fitzhue Lee and "Fighting" Joe Wheel
er will wear the blue, and as they "rally
round the flag, boys, rally once again"
it will be by the sides of your sous, and
under the stars and stripes. Tho only
contention between the North and South
will be as to whocan render most valiant
service to our common country, and do
most honor to the one flag we all cher
ish. Iu this new fervor of patriotism,
of which we are all pa'rtaklng, eectional

linee will be alt obliterated ; the bitter
ness that has lingered so long will be
effaced, old hatreds forgotten, And we
shall bo united us one man, under one
flag, in defense of one country, and all
Americans.
"This is no time to discuss our differ
ences, eectional, religious or political,
least of all to create or Increase them.
The croaking craven, who at a time like
this seeks to ferment sectional strife,
engender religious bitterness, intensify
partisan feeling, or who would slander
his country or its leaders in the face of
an armed enemy, will be swfept from
public llfo, and trampled under foot by
an earnest and indignant people, march
ing on to speedy and glorious victory.
"This is a contest trctween American
freedom and old world tyranny, be
tween civilization and barbarism, be
tween the enlightened christian man
hood of the nineteenth century, and the
cruel, iron-handed oppression of thn
dark ages. The result Is not in doubt,
and when by our victorious army and
navy, we have given the blessing t)f lib
erty to a down-trodden and oppressed
people, we shall have enhanced its value,
and established it more firmly for our
selves. Our own nation will have re
ceived a new baptism of freedom. We
shall have acquired new heroism and
new heroes for future and higher inspi
ration. We shall have placed patriot
ism above business, and valued liberty
more than wealth.
"That your meeting may be a happy
one that you may renew again the fircB
of patriotism in your breasts, as you re
count the trials, sufferings and dangers
of old times, again sing the old songs,
and in spirit and in Imagination drink
from the old canteens, and that you
may live long and by your lives and
your history continue to inspire the
hearts of young Americans with patriot
ism, fervid and earnest devotion to flag
and country, is my earnest and sincere
wish.
