Catarrh of the stomach has long been considered te next thing to incurable. The usual symptoms are a full or bloat- ng sensation after eating, accompanied sometimes with sour or watery risings, a formation of gases, causing pressure on the heart and lungs and difficult breath- ng, headaches, fickle appetite, nervous ness and a general played out, languid feeling. There is often a foul taste in ' the mouth, coated tongue and if the interior f the stomach could be seen it would how a slimy, inflamed condition. The cure for this common and ob stinate trouble is found in a treatment which causes tte food to be readily, thoroughly digested before it has time to ferment and irritate the delicate surface of the stomach. To secure a prompt and healthy digestion is the one necessary thing to do and when normal digestion is secured the catarrahal con dition will have disappeared. According to Dr. Harlanson the safest and best treatment is to use after each meal a tablet composed of Diastase, Aseptic PepBin, a little Nux, Gclden Seal and fruit acids. These tablets can now be found at all drug stores under the name of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablet?, and not being a patent medicine can be used with perfect safety and assurance that healthly appetite and thorough di gestion will follow their regular use alter meals. Mr. N. I. Booher, of 2710 Dearborn st unicago, in., writes: "Uattarti is a local condition resulting from a neglecleJ cold in the head, whereby the limns membrance of the nose becomes in flamed and the poisonous discharge therefrom passing backward into the throat reaches the etomach, thus pro ducing catarrah of the stomach. Medi cal authorities prescribed for me for three years for catarrah of stomach without cure, but today I am the happiest of men after using only one box of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets. I cannot find aopropriate words to ex press my good feeling. I have found flesh, appetite and sound rest from their use " Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets is the safest preparation as well as the very simplest and most convenient remedy for any form of indigestion, catarrah of stomach, billiousness, sour stomach, heartburn and bloatfng after meals. Send for little book, mailed free on stomach troubles, by addressing Stuart Co., Marshall, Mich. The tablets can be found at all drug stores. O. D. Taylor Found "Not Gnllty. A Saginaw, Mich., paper has an ex tended article concerning a case which has just been tried in the court there, in which O. D. Taylor, of this city, was de fendant. On account of its length it is impossible to give in full the statement of the judge to the jury, which no doubt would have been inteiesting to our read ers : The paper says in part : The case of the People vs. O. D. Tay lor in which Joseph Seemann was com plainant, was brought to a close about 2 :30 o'clock yesterday afternoon. whn Judge Wilber directed a verdict of "not guilty." This case was taken np Tues day afternoon and proved as short as the people had promised it would be. There were but two questions involved and the facts established by the testi mony presented few contradictions. The law points were argued yesterday morn ing and the whole case is concisely and accurately summed up in the statement made by Judge Wilber, in which be gives his reasons for directing a verdict. In closing the jndge said : "It seems beyond all controversy that a jury would not be justified as a matter of law in finding that Mr. Taylor in tended to defraud him by making that representation ; and it seems equally clear that Mr. Seemann could not have been defrauded by this representation ; and for these reasons I direct you to render a verdict of not guilty. The clerk will receive the verdict." Tbe result of this case was very gratify ing to Mr. Taylor and bis attorneys and to the personal friends, several of whom were in the court room.
