The plan of the take place some time during April, is rapldly assuming shape. The sub- committee composed of eleven mem- bers who were appointed at the pre- | liminary meeting to outline a plan has about completed its work, and a gen- eral meeting of the business men of Norwich has been called for Friday afternoon, Feb. 13, at 3 o'clock in the town hall. This'{s a movement en- | tirely distinct from that of any organ- ized commercial body now existing, inasmuch as it is intended to include every merchant within the limits of the city, whether or not he is con- nected with any association of business men_already established. The aim | has been to evolve a plan whereby the | merchant with a small store would be benefited as well as the larger busi ness houses, and the expense would be | borne in proportion to the benefit re- | celvea. _The committes has sent out invita- tions to every merchant within the city limits asking them to attend meeting in town hall on Friday after- noon, and if anyone has been over- looked they are welcome to partici- pate In the meeting just the same as though they had a personal invitation. The plan will be explained by the va- rious committees having the matter in charge, and it is optional with any merchant to join the movement or not. So far the committee has found the merchants who have been made a« quainted with the plan very enthusi- astic about its possibilities, and the unanimity with which the project has been received augers well for its suc- cess. It is hoped that the town hall will be well filled when the meeting is assembled at 3 o'clock on Friday aft- ernoon.

It 1s time to pay attention to your stomach when the sight or the smell of food makes you sick, for Wwere this ot the fact the stomach would mot chuse such disgust upon the part ol the sense of smell and taste When meal time comes around. All the world has to eat. You men who.walk to your meals like you do to a drug store for medicine, should at once realize that there is a relief for you. This relict is Stuart's Dys- pepsia Tablets. The Dyspepti in a smell like that?” Taste, sight and smell all have an influence upon digestion, If one eats something that does not taste good one retards the work of digestion, because the juices necessary to digest the thing eaten will not flow in COT- rect proportion. On_ the other hand good food will always excite the taste fhrough ac tual _ contact with the food in _ti mouth or through the sight or sense of smell, unless the stomach knows that it cannot digest it. We thus readily learn that the sim- ple act of giving nature the digestive fluids she needs, will bring back ah the joys of goud eating, and tasting, smeiling and secing dainty dishes will excite a_rousing appetite. Stuart’s Dyspepsia Tablets are composed of natural ingredients that a worn out digestion simply welcomes They enrich the so that if you with a wild delig stomach juices quickly want to eat an out-of-the-ordinary- after-the-theatre sort of a _dinner, just carry.a Stuart's Dyspepsia Tab- let in your pocket, take it after the | meal and will” digest that meal.
