DANGER IN SODA
Chicago, Juue 20. A special to the
Times-Herald from Omaha says : Female
employes in the large mercantile estab
lishments and factories in Omaha are in
a condition of unrest. They do not know
whether they will hold their present po
sitions after July 1, and if they are dis
charged they do not know whether they
can find another place in which to work.
What is true of the women workers of
Omaha is true of other large cities in the
state. This condition of unrest is due to
the law regulating the employment of
women passed by the last eession of the
legislature, and which becomes operative
July 1. It ia estimated that 25 per cent
of the women employed in stores and
factories throughout the state will be
dismissed and their places filled by men
The provisions of the law are peculiar.
It regulates and limits the hours of em
ployment of females in manufacturing,
mechanical and mercantile establish-

men ib, uoteis ana restaurants, .dvery
employer is compelled to provide suitable
seats for the female employes and per
mit the women to use them".. It fixes a
penalty of $50 for every infraction and
makes it the duty of the deputy labor
commission to see that the law is proper
ly enforced. .
Through a committee's efforts the
women employed in many Omaha stores
will be permitted to begin work about
10 o'clock Saturdays in order that they
may remaiD late in the evening of that
date, without laying their employers
liable to fine.- The proprietor of one of
the largest department stores in the city
8 aid that he did not think the law would
cause the dismiBeal of a large number of
women in his establishment, for the pres
ent, at least. His firm will obey the
law strictly, and if its observance shall
suggest economy in the weeding out pro
cess, that matter would be taken up
later.
The law will work a great revolution
in the conduct of hotels, resturants and
small shops, where women are expected
to work from daylight to dark. Pro
prietors of these places are opposed to its
enforcement, and are talking of going
into the courts to test its constitutional
ity.
"You can rest assured the law will be
enforced,' said Bert Each, a local labor
leader. "Organized labor supported the
bill before the legislature, and is in full
sympathy with its provisions. The
deputy state labor commissioner can be
' depended upon to enforce it rigidly."
In Lincoln, the big storekeepers are as
much perturbed over the enforcement of
the law as are the merchants of Omaha

Common soda ia all right in its place
nd indispensable in the kitchen and tor
cooking and washing purposes, but it
was never intended as a medicine, and
people who use it as such will some day
regret it.
We refer to the common use of soda to
relieve heartburn or sour stomach, a'
habit which thousands of people practice
and one which is fraught with danger;
moreover the soda only gives temporary
relief and in the end the stomach trouble
gets worse and worse. .
The soda acts as a mechanical irritant
to the walls of the stomach and. bowels
and cases are on record where it has ac
cumulated in . the intestines, causing
death by inflamation or peritonitis.
Dr. Harlandson recommends as the
safest and surest cure for sour stomach
acid dyspepsia) an excellent preparation
sold by druggists under the name of
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets. These tab
lets are large 20 grain lozenges, very
pleasant to taste and contain the natural
acids, peptones and" digestive elements
essential to good digestion, and when
taken after meals they digest the food
perfectly and promptly before it baa time
to ferment, sour and poison the blood
and nervous system,
Dr. Wuerth states that he invariably
uses Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets in all
cases of stomach derangement and'finds
them a certain cure not only for sour
stomach, but by promptly digesting the
food they create fieab and strengthen the
action of the heart and liver. They are
not a cathartic, but intended only for
stomach diseases and weakness and will
be found reliable in all stomach troubles
except cancer of the stomach. All drug
gists sell Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets at
50 cents per package.

friend advised 'Electric Bitters' ; and ' to
my great joy and surprise, the first
