JAMES BURNS.
Ex-Collector of the Port of Kan- is City.
Os the men who have occupied poWioiv of public trust in
Kansas City, either by gift of the peonle >r by appointment; none
has a more enviable reputation for ability, b nesty and efficiency
than James Burns, Collector of the Port of Kansas City under
Grover Cleveland. He lived the letter th maxim, “public office
is a public trust,” and when he retired he c. t ried with him the
respect of everyone in the community—democrats and republi
cans alike*
James Burns has used Stuart’s Dpspepsit Tablets and he
does not hesitate to say they have accompli I ed wonders.
“I suffered with dyspepsia for twenty v u*s,” said Mr. Burns
yesterday. “Never knew what it w - is Io eujoi life—in fact living
seemed a burden, as it does to all who suffer severely with dys
pepsia. A few months ago 1 began taking Stuart’s Dyspepsia
Tablets. From the first I felt rem-l’, and now, although 1 am still
taking them, I feel entirely cured. For th< first time in twenty
vears T can eat anything I want ai d suit r no ill effects from it
You can’t imagine the pleasure of this unhos you have been a
dyspepsia sufferer.
“I never gave a testimonial for any n.ed.cine before, but 1
feel as if everybody ought to know of this remedy, and while it i
personally distasteful to me to appear in »r in this connection
1 feel as if 1 had no right to shirk the oppr tiinity tc, perhap
help some other sufferers from d.'pepsin ib v been recommend
ing the Tablets to all my friends. (Ini. - :(*{•< ily 1 took James II
Lillis, the fattier of Father Lillis, down to g> ome, and I under
stand he also is being wonderful y ben. li i< 1 I can’t recommend
it too highly.”
