TO CURE NERVOUS DYSPEPSIA, To Gain Flesh, to Sleep Well, to Know What Appetite and Good Digestion Mean, Make a Test of Stuart's Dys- pepsia Taniets. Interesting Experience of an In- dianapolis Gentleman, No troubl more common or more misunderstood than uervous dyspepsia, People baving it think that their nerves are to blame, are surprised that they are not cured by nerve medicines and spring remedies ; the real seat of mischief is lost sight of; the stomach is the origin to be looked after. Nervous dyspeptics often do not have any pain whatever in the stom ach, nor perbaps any of the usual symptoms of stomach weakness. Nervous dyspepsia shows itself not in the stoznach so much as in nearly every other organ; in some cases the heart palpitates and is irregular; in others, the kidneys are affected; in others the bowels are ccnstipated, with headaches: still others are troubled with loss of flesh and appe- tite, with the accumulation of gas, sour risings and heartburn. Mr. A. W. Sharper, of No. 61 Prospect St., Lodianapolis, Indiana, writes as follows: ‘‘A motive of pure gratitude prompts me to write these few lines regarding the new and valuable medicine, Stuart's Dyspep- sia Tablets. I Lave been a sufferer from nervous dyspepsia for the last four years; have used various patent medicines and other remedies without any favorable result. They some- times gave temporary relief, until the effects of the medicine wore off. 1 attributed this to my sedentary hab- its, being a bookkeeper with’ little physical exercise, but Lam glad to state that the tablets have overcome all these obstacles, for I have gained in flesh, sleep better,and am better in every way. The above is written not for notoriety, but is based on actual facts,”’ Respectfully yours, A. W. Suarren, 61 Prospect St., Indianapolis, Lod.

How the Sport Was Looked Upon « Century Ago. Scotland may boast, if she will, that her sons resisted the temptation of a vile amusement for a century and a half at least after it had mania all over Europe. The fact may be explained in a less honorable manner, but fact it is. Under the com- monwealth of England cocking was forbidden, not because it gave pain to the cocks, but because it gave nae to the spectators, as Macaulay said of bull-baiting. And the Scottish Kirk took the same view. A certain Ma- corie, a fencing-master, claims to have introduced it in his “Kesay on the In. nocent and Royal Recreation and Art of Cocking,” published at Edin- burgh, 1705; and the boast appears to be justified. Macorie tells with pride how some gentlemen had already “erected” a pit in the Links of Leith under his direction, and he continue “I earnestly wish this generous and faudable example may be imitated to the degree that in cockwar village may be engaged against village, city against city, kingdom against kingdom, until’ all wars in Eu- rope, wherein so much Chris blood is spilt, may be turned into the innocent pastime of cocking.” His rayer was granted in a measure, for cotland plunged desperately as soon as the ice had been broken. It became the “proper thing” even to furnish boys at school with cocks, to be fought at Shrovetide. Perhaps the school- master supplied them sometimes. We have areport from the minister of Ap- plecross, Ross-shire, in 1790, which ‘tates that the schoolmaster of the parish has an income of 200 marks, with a payment of Is. 6d. per boy, and és, Gd. extra for Latin, and “the cock- fight dues,” which equal one quarter's payment for each scholar. me fig. ares were intelligible at the time, no Joubt, but they only convey to us that he schoolmaster of Applecross made aearly 25 per cent. of his income by sock-fighting somehow, — London Standard. acoustic Tubes.

Bow the Curse of a Vengeful Trick Plagues Mr. Swift. Mr. J. H. Swift, of Paducah, Ky, tells a good story on himself: “Fifteen years ago, when I was bu! a seemingly incorrigible youth,” sai¢ he, “I chanced while out hunting one day to trespass upon the farm of one of our neighbors whose acerbity tc temper was known the country over with the result that a severe ch ing was given the, At that time my anger knew no bounds, still diseretiot was not entirely overthrown, and J kept my own counsel, with the result that a plan for revenge at last oc curred to me.
