I would as soon think of starting out without my mileage book and grip as to Btart out on a trip without a- box of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets in my valise, said a traveling man -who represents a St. Louis hardware house. "Why? Because I have, to put up at all kinds of hotels and boarding houses. I have to eat good, bad and indifferent food at all hours of tho day and night and I don't believe any man's stomach will stand that sort of thing without protest, anyway I know mine won't. It has to have something to break the fall and Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets is the crutch I fall back on. My friends often "Josh" me about it, tell me I'm an easy mark for patent medicine fakers, that advertised medicines are humbugs, etc., butl notice that they arc nearly always complaining of their aches and pains and poor digestion, while I can stand most any old kind -of fare and feel good and read yf or my. werk when It needs me, and I believe I owe my good digestion and sound heilth to the daily, regular use of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets, year in and year out. and all tho joshing" in thJ world will never convince me to the contrary. I used to have heartburn about three times a diy and a headache about three or four times a week and after standing for this for four or live years I began to look around for a crutch and found it wh"ii my doctor told me the best Investment 1 could -mak . would be a &ö-eent box of Stuart's Dysp-pU Tablets, and I have iuvt-gted abcu io cents a month for 'them ever since und when I stop to think that that Is what I spend every day for elxar. 1 fe 1 like shaking hands with myself for I can keep my stomach -and digestion in first-class order for 50- cents a month. I don't care for any better life Insurance. My druggist tells me they are the most popular of all stomach medicines and that they have maintained their popularity nd success because they do as advertised. They bring result-, and results are what count in patent medicine as much us la elling carbwire.

PROF. R. A. OGG. CIGARETTE IS BANISHED Crusade of Prof. R. A. Ogg Has Resulted in an Army of 3,000 Nonusers of Tobacco. EFFECTS OF THE WEED Special to the Indianapolis Journal. KOKOMO, Ind., March 13.-Aftcr a prolonged crusade, Professor R. A. Ogg. superintendent of the Kokomo schools, has banished the cigarette from the public schools. Kokomo now has an army of 3,000 pupils pledged against the use of tobacco in every form. Professor Ogg has made a study of the evil effects of cigarette smoking among children and, aided by the faculty and Board of Education, began a war of extermination against the weed. As a result of several courts of Inquiry about a score of tobacco dealers were arrested for selling to children in violation of law. The boys were made to tell where they bought tobacco and it Is now an Impossibility for boys under sixteen years of age to buy tobacco in this place, and the cigarette habit is entirely broken up in the schools. Speaking of the effects on pupils of cigarette smoking Professor Ogg said: "The effect of the habitual use of tobacco is manifest in various ways. The deterioration Is apparent In the pupil, morally, mentally and physlcallly. It is shown in his monthly grades. In his conduct and actions In the study and recitation room? and in his general appearance. We have had boys two years behind the grades of nonusers of the same nge ana In all cases the uters were far behind. Some were shamed out by their low grades and quit school. "Aside from their grades It was not hard to distinguish between the users and nonusers. The users were dull-eyed, sullen, stupid, listless, pale-cheeked, inattentive, thoughtless, petulant, drowsy, slow of comprehension with no ambition to succeed In anything. An examination of the grades kept by the teachers will prove an unanswerable argument against the use of cigarettes among children. These records were carefully made, and there Is no guesswork, about them. Since the cigarette has been banished the grades of the former users are coming up, the improvement being very marked and satisfactory." FIDDLERS' CONTEST ' BY POST Q, T. P. A.

I have not had piles of any kind since, and it is all owing to this wonderful remtdy. My nurso took a box, which I was glad to be able to give her. for I know she will be able to help lots of suffering people whom I could never see or know. "I recommend 'Pyramids' wherever I know of anyone suffering as I did. It gives me great pleasure to be able to say I am entirely cured, which my doctor says is true. I say God Bless Tyramid Pile Cure." From a former great sufferer, Mrs. F. Ancott, I'M Unity St., Frankford, Phlla dclphia. Pa. This remedy, which is sold by druggists generally.
