Re) Tim to Think.
Addison Walt was seated with Colonel
Gasklll of Otoe ronnty, who was one of
the most seriously Injured of any of the
passengers Mr. Walt had three rlba badly
wrenched and was otherwise badly shaken
. tip. lie said of the wreck:
"Everything happened , In the twinkling
of an eye. We were going down grade,
probably at the rate of forty miles an
hour, when all of a sudden the cars top
pled over. Someone said, 'We are off,' and
the next thing I knew we were a tangled
mass of broken seats and humanity. It all
happened so quickly I " had no time, to
think. ' The seat we were In wan evidently
torn from the floor, because I held on to
It snd I was thrown across the floor.
"The embankment we went over must
have been seven or eight feet and both
cars rolled over It. Fortunately the Union
Paclflo train came along Just at the time
the accident occurred and the conductor
tent his crew over to help get out the
Injured. With the assistance of those not
Injured all were placed' aboard the Union
Paclflo train, which brought us Into Lin

In the wreck. He waa returning1 from

car, his head el ruck against a seat and he

A QbOD DEAL OF NONSENSE.
Abes "Blood Partners" and "Tonics."
Every drop of blood, -every bone, nerve
and tissue 'in the nody can be' renewed in
but one way, and that is. from wholesome
food properly digested. There is no other
avay and the Idea that a medicine'' In itself
can purify the blood or supply new tissues
and strong nerves is ridiculous and On a
par with the fol-de-rol that dyspepsia or
Indigestion Is a'germvdlHeaae, or that other
fallacy, that a weak stomach which refuses
to digest food can be . mad to do so by
irritating and Inflaming the bowels by
pills and cathartics.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets cure Indiges
tion, sour stomach, gas and bloating after
meals, because they furnish the digestive
principles which weak stomachs lack, and,
unless the deficiency of pepsin and diastase
Is supplied. It is useless to attempt to cure
stomach trouble by the use of "tonics,"
pills" and "cathartics" which have abso
lutely no digestive power, and their only ef
fect is to give a temporary stimulation.
One graiosof the active principle In Stu
art's Dyspepsia Tablets will digest ,000
Brains of meat,' eggs and similar toods, and
experiments have shown that they will do
this In a glass bottle at proper temperature
but of course are much more effective in
the stomach.
There la probably no remedy so univer
sally used ' as Stuart's Tablets be
cause it is not only the sick and ailing,
but well penile who use them at every
meal to Insure perfect digestion and assim
ilation of food.
People who enjoy fair healtth take Stu
art's Tablets as regularly as they . take
their meals, because they want to keep well
-prevention is better than cure, and Stu
art's Dyspepsia Tablet do both they
prevent Indigestion and they remove It
where It exists. The regular use of one or
two of them after meals wjll demonstrate
their merit and efficiency better than any
other argument.

according to the severity of the case,

that six months of their treatment Is not
