Enjoy Your Meals
By Simply Eating a Little Pleasant

A Tablet Digests a Meal Trial Pack

When digestion is perfect the
fluids necessary to this process come
naturally to the aid of the stomach.
They are of right proportion and do
their work speedily and well. When
Indigestion and dyspepsia are preva
lent, these same juices come slowly
if at all, are weak and insufficient
or are filled with strong acids and
alkalies.
When such a condition exists each
meal is a' hardship upon the diges
tive organs. The meal should
strengthen the juices, but dn the
contrary it weakens them, so that
man by the very act of eating causes
conditions to arise which of them
selves bring him pain and loathing
for the next meal.
By eating one of Stuart's Dyspep
sia Tablets you mix the tablet with
your saliva and it goes into your
stomach a strong, vigorous fluid,
' many times more powerful than the
natural digestive juices. These tab
lets are made up from natural vege
table and fruit essences and are
composed from Hydrastis, Golden
. Seal, Lactose, Nux, Aseptic Pepsin
and Jamaica Ginger. There is the
formula and one grain of it will
digest 3,000 grains of food in any
stomach. Beside digesting the food

The Real Business Interests
In an editorial entitled "Is It Com
ing?" tho Akron (Ohio) Times says:
We agreeo with the Beacon Jour
nal that the "prosperity" argument
and the "stability of business" argu
ment have been quite overworked by
the republicans including itself
and that this formerly "republican
mainstay" has been "effectually
knocked in the head." We also be
lieve, with our neighbor, nd said
so at the time, that its party "ought
to have been licked in 1908."
We are saying all this, not for the
purpose of involving our contempor
ary in an inconsistency, but because
it has come to what we believe is the
right position a position which is to
need fighting for in the next two
years and we are glad to welcome all
help in that contest, without regard
to-past conduct or party names. We
are certain, too, that our neighbor
has picked out the real principle up
on which men are to divide in politi
cal action and that the time for the
division cannot bo long delayed.
That principle is this: It s as
sumed in quarters that would be
controlling in politics, that 'busi
ness Interests" are those Interests
alone which are powerful in influ
ence and of magnitude in the world
of finance, and that "business pros
perity" means that which makes
these interests prosperous, to the ex
clusion or neglect of the smaller
oneSalthough the latter may com
prise the greater number by far and
may reach deeper down into the vi
tality of our people; roughly opeak
1ns. but accurately enough for .the
popular understanding, they may be,
aVd often are, designated as the ' In
terests " or tho "corporations." A
teresuj, u .
furtner assumijuuu - r. .,
terests shall monopolize, PjaoUcally.
i limit all tlie iuuunuiio v. t,w..-
ment ana so far the claim has been
rSnfced and acted upon. Congress
is expected to, and generally does,
SgSSto principally as they wish;
the courts are busy with ettltag
their disputes; the president is elect
ed largely through their efforts and
at their dictation, and is expected to
be their executive. And. what is thus
true of tho general government is
also true of state governments, with
in their sphere.
That all this gives to these Inter
ests a vast advantago, not founded
on merit, and which therefore ought
to be withheld, is the substance of
what tho Beacon Journal is arguing
for, as wo understand It. Tho In
justice of this situation Is not now
for tho first tlmo discovered, nor Is
the objection to Its continuance now
first voiced. But, coming from a re
publican organ, the protest is as
hopeful as it is strange. It is hope
ful because it marks a new align
ment, in our opinion, in which con
servatism shall be made to bear its
true meaning, as caring for tho In
terests of all, instead of some, and
that both great and small shall have
the equal car of legislation and the
equal watchfulness of the govern
ment, instead of the great alone.
The distinction for which we have
always contended, and for which
some newspapers of other party fel
lowship are now contending, was bet
ter stated years ago, by a man whose
name we will not give, as It might
frighten tho later converts from
their new-found sense of justice. Ho
said:
"When you com before us and
tell us that 4we are about to disturb
your business Interests, we reply
that you have disturbed our business
Interests by your course. We say to
you that you havo made tho defini
tion of a business man too limited
in its application. Tho man who is
employed for wages is as much a
business man as his employer. The
attorney In a country town is as
much a business man as tho corpora
tion counsel in a great metropolis
The merchant at the cross-roads
atnro is as much a business man as
, movphn-nt of New York. Tho

tho spring and tons an nummei--and
who, by the application of brain
and muscle to the natural resources
of the country, creates wealth, is as
