No One Can Remain Well, No Chronic Disease Can Be Cured Unless the Stomach is First Made Strong and . Vigorous. This is plain because every organ in the body depends on the stomach for its nourishment. Nerve, bone, sinew, blood are made from the food which the stomach converts to our use. How useless to treat disease with this, that and the other remedy and neglect the most important of all, the stomach. The earliest symptoms of indigestion are sour risings, bad taste in the mouth, gas in stomach and bowels, palpitation, all-gone feeling, faintness, headaches, constipation; later comes loss of flesh, ! consumption, liver and heart troubles, kidney diseases, nervous prostration, all of which are the indirect result of poor nutrition. Any person suffering from indigestion should make it a practice to take after each meal one of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets, allowing it to dissolve in the mouth and thus mingle with the saliva and enter the stomach in the most nat- ural way. These Tablets are highly recommended by Dr. Jennison because they are composed of the natural di- gestive acids and fruit essences which assist the stomach in digesting all wholesome food before it has time to | ferment and sour. Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are sold by druggists, full-sized packages at 50 cents. They are also excellent for in- valids and children.

The interest in the occasion was enhanced by the knowledge that ex- President Benjamin Harrison would speak. General Porter, the United States Em- bassador, brief address, and Mr. Harrison fallowed with an oration that was frequently ap- plauded. He spoke of the deep respect shown to Decoration day-in the United States and the reverent care taken of graves of American soldiers, remarking that the chief value of such observances was in impressing the hearts and minds of the people with the lessons of self-sac- rifice and heroism. “The nation that cherishes the graves of its soldiers and assembles to honor them,” he said, “is the nation that pre- serves and enlarges national life. The monuments to our dead show no trailing ranks of sad or weary captives following their conquérors, but display broken manacles from the hands and feet of ncipated blacks. The result of that emancipation was seen at Santiago, where black troops and the Te: troops vied with each other to be the first to leap upon the enemy’s breastworks, Mr. Harrisorr then referred to the ‘‘gal- lant and glorious son of Vermont now returning homeward after achievements that will keep his name ever illustrious in_the annals of all nations. “Here in the capital of our great sister republic,” he continued, “‘where no dier of Amerfcan birth finds a re place, we see sentiment of gratitude veneration finding suitable around the tomb of Lafayette, th er of liberty who came to our aid time of stre closely than any other connected with ths name of Washington.
