BLACK S MISSES
In the political fine work done
against Theodore Roosevelt’s
candidacy for the governorship
of New York, says the St. Louis
Republic, the lead was taken by
Gov. Black, whose voice is de
scribed as having been the loud
est in the “discordant and defi
ant chorus.”
It was also stated that the
coming of Black to Saratoga,the
scene of the convention, was
characteristic of the man, “To
avoid any demonstration,” we
are told, “Gov. Black purposely
missed a train and came on a
later one.” This sacrificial act
of the governor was quite prom
inently dwelt upon as an evi
dence of his desire to eliminate
himself from the conflict.
It was probably this same
impulse of self-sacrifice and pur
sonal elimination which led
Gov. Black, of New York to
miss a train in getting to the
front for active service in the
war with Spain.
Theodore Roosevelt was not
so unfortunate, being enabled
on the contrary, to figure very
largely in that conflict and to so
bear himself as the leader of the
Rough Riders that every Amer
ican’s heart now swells with
national pride at the m ntion
of Roosev It’s name. This is the
difference, probably between the
genuine Americon and the pes
tiferous American politician.
It will not be easy for such
men as Black to stand success
fully in the way of “Teddy”
Roosevelt. The people love Ted
dy now for the love that he has
shown for Old Glory, and they
will back him and the flag every
time as against a politician like
Gov. Black, of New York, who
“purposely missed a train,”
both in getting to the Saratoga
Convention and to the front.

No moth- I
tr wants Zs '
to have M
a puny,
weakly, sickly baby yet unless she herself
is entirely healthy in the special, delicate
structure which makes motherhood possi
ble, the baby is certain to suffer in some
way for her weakness or neglect.
The surest way to avoid this is for the
mother to reinforce her own strength by
the use of Dr. Pierce’s Favorite Prescript
tion during the time of anticipation. It
will make her perfectly healthy. It will
lighten and brighten the time of waiting.
It will make the ordeal of motherhood ab
solutely safe and comparatively free from
pain and will insure a strong, healthy con
stitution for the baby.
Mrs Nsimie I. Taylor, of Lovelace, Hill Co.,
Texas, says. ” J am the mother of eight chil
dren. I suffered from female weakness. I tried
physicians with no avail When 1 last became
with child I saw the advertisement of Doctor
Pierce’s Favorite Prescription. I bought two
bottles and took according to directions. When
baby was born I had a very easy time and have
m>t suffered one hour since, from female weak
ness. Baby is as fat and healthy as can be "

It is certainly to be hoped
that we will engage in no con

The Dreyfus case is being
overshadowed in Paris. The

Evidences multiply that it
was a bad omission not to pro

DANGER IN SODA.
Serious Results Sometimes
Follow Its ExcKssivE Use.
Common soda is all right in
its place and indispensable in
the kitchen for cooking and
washing purposes, but it was
never intended for a medicine,
and people who use it as such
will some day regret it.
We refer to the common use
of soda to relieve heartburn or
sour stomach, a habit which
thousands of people practice al
most daily, and one which is
fraught with danger; moreover
the soda only gives temporary
relief and in the end the stom
ach trouble gets worse and
worse.
The soda acts as a mechanical
irritant to the walls of the stom
ach and bowels and cases are
on record wheie it accumulated
in the intestines, causing death
by infiamation or peritontis.
Dr. Harlandson recommends
as the safest and surest cure for
sour stomach (acid dyspepsia)
an excellent preparation sold by
druggists under the name of
Stuart’s Dyspepsia Tablets.
These tablets are large 20 grain
lozengers, very pleasant to taste
and contain the natural acids,
peptones and digestive elements
essential to good digestion, and
when taken after meals they di
gest the food perfectly and
promptly before it has had time
to ferment, sour and poison the
blood and nervous system.
Dr. Wuerth states that he in
variably uses Stuart’s Dyspep
sia Tablets in all cases of stom
ach trouble, but by promtly di
gesting the fool they create a
healthy app tite, increase flesh
and strengthen the action of the
heart and liver. They are not a
cathartic, but intended only for
stomach diseases and weakness
and will be found reliable in
any stomach trouble except can
cer of the stomach.
All druggists sell Stuart’s
Dyspepsia Tablets at 50c per
package.
