The largest turn in res- ‘) idence property, so large, indeed, as to be | quite exceptional, was put through by | Baldwin & Howell. The property is the | residence of Mrs. Albert Gallatin and 1s | situated on the northwest corner of Jack- | son and Scott streets. The purchaser of the property is W. W. Van Arsdale.

Baldwin & Son for the buyer in the | . sale of the Beresford Hotel, at the north- | west corner of Bush and Stockton streets, for Coleman Brothers to L. Friedlander, for $50,00. Coleman Brothers bought the property in“1872 and it has since returned 100,000 in rent. Henry Kahn, through the agency of! Shainwald, Buckbee & Co., has bought the southeast corner of Second and Minna streets from Charles Main and Mrs, Mc- Dermott for $50,000. Emanuel L. Heller has sold to the Wil- son Estate Company 40x137:6 feet on the south line of Bush street, 97 feet east from Sansome, with four-story brick buflding, for $85,000.

Few Peoplc Fealize the Importance of Gocd Bigestion Until It Is Lost. . Many people suffer from dyspepsia and do rot know it. They feel megn, out of sorts, peevish, do not sleep well, do not the inclination and energy for physical or mental work they once had, but at the same time do not feel any particular pain or distress in the stomach. Yet all this is the result of poor digestion, an in- | sldious form of Dyspepsia, which can only be clred by a remedy specially intended to cure it and make the digestive organs | act naturally and properly digest the food | caten. - Bitters, after dinner pills and nerve tonics will never help the trouble; they don't reach it. The new medical discovery does. It is called Stuart’s Dys- | repsia Tablets and is a specific for dys- ' pepsia and indigestion. It cures because | it thoroughly digests all wholesome food | taken into the stomach, whether the stomach is in good working order or not. | Stuart’'s Dyspepsia Tablets by digesting ' the food, instead of making the worn-out stomach do-all the work, give it a much | needed rest and a cure .of dyspepsia is | the natural result. ‘When you are nervous, run down and | sleepless, don’'t make the common mis- take of supposing your nervous system peeds treatment and fill your stomach with powerful nerve tonics, which make ! you feel good:for a little while, only to fgll back farther than ever. Your nerves are all right, but they are| starved, they want food. | Nourish them with wholesome every- | day food and plenty of it, well digested, | and you can laugh at nerve tonics and medicine. But the nerves will. not be nourished from a weak, abused stomach, but when the digestion has been made perfect by the.use of this remedy all nervous symp- toms disappear. ‘Who ever heard of a man or woman tlessed with a vigorous digestion and gucd appetite being troubled with their nerves? | Good digestion means a strong nervous | AR o alice of detey Bhd capacity | posite the Benson residence now in course of to enjoy the good thihgs of life.
