THE ROOT OF THE MATTER.
lie Cured Himself of Serious Stoinitcb
Trouble llimn to ririt l'rlnelploi
A man of largo nffalrs In ouo of our
prominent cltlea by too closo attention to
business, toojlttlo exorclao and too many
club dinners, finally began to pay nature's
tax. levied in tho form of chronic stomnch
trouble; tho failure of his digestion brought
nbout a nervous Irritability mnklng It liu
possible to niply hlrasolf to his dnlly bus!
noss and tlnnlly deranging tho kidneys and
heart.
In hla own words ho says: "I consulted
ono physician after another and each ono
seemed to uudorstaml my case, but all tho
same they each fulled to bring about tho re
turn of my former digestion, nppotita and
vigor. Kor two years I went from pillar to
post, from ono sanitarium to another, I gave
up smoking, I quit coneo ami evou renounc
cd my dally glaso or two of beer, but with
out any marked Improvement.
"Krlcnds had often advised mo to try a
well known proprietary medlciuo, Stunrt's
Dyspepsia Tablets and I had often perused
tho newspaper advertisements of tho rem
edy but never took any slock In advertised
medicines nor could bcllevo a fifty-cent
pntcnt mcdlctno would touch my case.
"To make a Ions story short, 1 Anally
bought a couplo of packages at tho nearest
druc store and took two or three tablets nf
tcr each meal and occasionally a tablet
between meals, when I folt any feeltug of
nausea or discomfort.
"I was surprised at tho end of tho first
week to note a marked improvement In my
appetlto and general health and before tho
two packages were gono I was certain that
Stuart's Dj'BpcpBla Tablets waa going to
euro completely and thoy did not disappoint
me. I can at and Bleep and enjoy my coffee
and cigar and nu one would nupposo I had
over known the horrors of dyspopsln.
"Out of friendly curiosity 1 wroto to the
proprietors of tho remedy asking for In
formation as to what tho tablets contained
and they replied that tho principal Ingra
dlents voro nsoptlc pepsin (government
test) malt diastase and other natural dl
gcstlvcs, which digest food regardless of
tho condition of the stomach,"
Tho root of the matter Is tlilf tho dices
tlve elements contained In Stuart's Dyspep
ala Tablets will digest the food, glvo the.
overworked stomach a chanco to recuperato
nnd tho nerves and wholo system recelvo
tho nourishment which can only coma from
food; stimulants and nervo tonics uovor
glvo real strength, they gave a fictitious
strength, Invariably followed by roactlon
Every drop of blood, every nerve aud tissue
is manufactured from our dally food, and It
you can Insure Its prompt action nnd com
plcto digestion by tho regular use of so
good und wholesorao a remedy as Stuart's
Dyspepsia Tablets, you will have no need
of uerve tonics and snnltarluuis.
Although Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets havo
been In tho market only a few years yet
probably every druggist In the United States
Canada and Oreat Ilrltrttn uow sells them
and considers them the most popular and
successful of any preparation for stomach
troubles.

In St. I'nui the cost is less. The schools
of that city are Just now undergoing the

Congress has honored soldiers nnd states

statesman. IIo served with distinction In
tho revolutionary war.
IIo was nn Inllucntlul member of the Vir

ns cungr8Stnau from Virginia. Ho was ap
pointed secretnry of war by President Ad-
nms, but before he assumed his duties was
placed at tho head of tho State department.
It la as a Jurist, however, that ho will

The war between Hngland and Its colo
nics brought John Mnrshall Into promt
nenco and secured for him the friendship
of Cicnernl Washington nnd nthcr colonial
leaders. Hu was 18 years old at tho tlmo
tho trouble began between Kngland and
America nnd until that tlmo had spent
nn uneventful life upon his father's estnto
at Ocrmantown, Va. In 1773 ho was ap
pointed lieutenant In a company of mlnuto
men. He was afterwards promoted to a
captaincy.
Marshall took part lu the fnmous engage
mcnts nt Hrandywlno, Oermantown and
Monmouth and was ono of tho heroic band
of patriots which spent tho memorable
whiter nt Valley Forge. Whllo In tho servlco
ho frequently nctcd ns Judge ndvocnte, and
while performing tho dutlc3 of this ofTlco
he attracted the attention of Generals
Washington nnd Hamilton, with whom ho
was afterwards on very friendly terras.
At tho closo of tho war ho resumed his
studies nnd took a courso In William and
Mnry collego. In 17S0 ho received a llccnso
to practice law. Two years later ho was
elected to tho Virginia legislature and
honored with u plnco on the stnto executlvo
council. For years ho stood with Madison
In tho Virginia legislature as an advocato
of tho union of all the colonics under a
federal government and he was a member
of tho Virginia convention which assembled
In 178S to ratify the federal constitution.
Whllo In Philadelphia arguing a case be
foro tho supremo court In 1790, Mnrshall
widened his ncqualntanco among northern
statesmen and was offored tho attorney
generalship by President Washington, hut
refused it. He ulso declined an appoint
ment ns minister to Franco, stntlug that ho
preferred to devote his entlro tlmo to law.
At tho suggestion of Oeneral Washington
ho became n cnndldato for congrebs lu 1799
and was elected after a spirited contest.
In tho momorablo session of 17D9-1S00 he
distinguished himself by his masterly do
batcs. President Adams nnmed Marshall
secretary of stato in 1S00 and a year later
ho resigned this ofllco to accept tho chief
Justiceship left vacant by the resignation
of Chief Justlco Kllswortb. Marshall re
mained on the supreme bench until his
death in 1S35.

Varicocele
Whatever may be iho cause of Varico
cele, Its injurious effect is well known
It depresses the mind, weakens the body,
rucks the nervous ssti'm and ultimately
leads to n complete loss of sexual power.
If you nre a victim of this dire dlscuso
conio to our olllce nnd lei me explain to
you my process of treating It. You will
then not wonder why I have positively
cured hundreds of eases of varicocele dur

treatment the patient Improves from tho
very beginning All pain Instantly ceases
Soreness and swelling quickly mibsldo. The
pools of stagnant blood ure forced from
tho ciliated veins, which rapidly assume
their normnl size, strength and soundness.
All Indications of disease nnd weakness
vanish completely nnd In their stead come
tho pride, tho power nnd the pleasuro of
perfect health and restortd manhood.
