Your Stomich Is Lacking In Dlges tlve Power, Why Not Help tho Stomach Do Us Work—Especial ly When It Coats Nothing To Try? Not with drugs, but with a rein forcement of digestive agents, such as are naturally at work In the stomach Scientific analysis shows that digestion requires pepsin, nitrogenous ferments, and the secretion of hydrochloric acid. When your food falls to digest, It Is proof positive that some of these agents ure lacking In your digestive apparatus. Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets contain nothing but these natural elements necessary to digestion and when placed at work In the weak stomach and small Intestines, supply what these or gans need. They stimulate the gastric glands and gradually bring the diges tive organs back to their normal con dition. Stuart’s Dyspepsia Tablets have been subjected to critical chemical tests at home and abroad and are found to contain nothing but natural digestives. Chemical Laboratory.

I have analyzed most carefully a box of Stuart’s Dyspepsia Tablets (which I bought myself at a city chemist's •hop for the purpose), manufactured by the F. A. Stuart Co., Temple Cham bers, London, E. C., and have to report that I can not find any trace of vege table or mineral poisons. Knowing the ingredients of the tablets, I am of opin ion that they are admirably adaptable for the purpose for which they are In tended. (Signed) JOHN R. BROOKE, F. L C„ F. C. S.

In the fight It Is declared she will make, It is asserted, she will strike first through a suit for divorce.- If this suit Is brought, It Is alleged, a well-known actress will be named. It Is alleged Mrs. Platt has obtained the evidence In person on which the suit will be based. It Is declared by friends of the fam ily that Mrs. Platt's suit will be brought with the hope of obtaining a large sum of money in settlement, and to effect a compromise rather than have the scandal aired. Senator Platt, It Is asserted, has been the object of Mrs. Platt's bitter animosity, and has been subjected to insult and vitupera tion. Near Tragedy Allagad. Colonel Carmody Is secretly plan ning the proceedings against Mrs. Platt, according to the statements made, and will be the senator’s ally as a consequence of the separation of the Carmodys, which the colonel has charged was due to the Influence of Mrs. Platt. Among the terrible scenes alleged to have taken place In the Platt household Is one that almost became a tragedy. Mrs. Platt figured In It with a revolv er In her hand, and Mrs. Carmody Is asserted to have prevented a fatal ter mination to the affair, only by wrest ing the revolver from her mother’s possession. Part of the same chapter were charges made by Mrs. Platt against Mrs. W. E. Bushy, a former friend, and one of her companions on the trio across the continent made by the Platts.

Senator Platt was carried bodily today by two young men from the Hotel Gotham to a carriage In which he was driven to his office at No. 49 Broadway. He looked more decrepit than ever, and in a weak voice he said he could talk with newspaper men later.
