affair is said to be not of the best.

the sale of diseased cattle in the state
and in the sale of which, according to
the indictments, two former members
of the state cattle commission partici
pated with a full knowledge that such
cattle would be" used for food purposes.
Four of the" indictments were against
the Consolidated Rendering company
and they contained 400 counts. Four
additional indictments were against
L. E. Brigham,manager of the Burling
ton Rendering company. This com
pany is controlled by the Consolidated
company and the indictments against
Brlgham, which also contain 400
counts, are identical with those re
turned against the Consolidated com
pany. The most sensational disclo
sures were made in the indictments
which were returned against Dr. F. A.
Rich, a veterinary of this city, and
Victor L. Spear of Randolph, both of
whom were members of the state cat
tle commission. Spear's term expired
about one year ago and he was not re
appointed. Rich was removed from
the commission by Governor Bell just
before the latter retired from office.
The indictments against the Consoli
dated company" and Brigham charge
the sale of diseased meat in the state
and also the shipment of such diseased
meat out of the state for the purpose
of putting it on sale. Rich and Spear
are charged with selling dis'eased beef
which they had previously condemned,
to the rendering companies. All of the
defendants furnished bonds for their

session 'of the court, Judge Rowell im
posed a fine of $3,000 on the Consoli

ure to produce before the grand jury
certain papers and memoranda which
had been demanded. The defendant in
contesting the charge of contempt of
court proceedings maintained that the
papers had been destroyed prior to the
Investigation. Judge Rowell overruled
the motion to dismiss the .case and he
imposed the fine. In explanation
of his failure to make the . fine
the 'maximum allowable under the
statutes the judge stated that in
fixing the penalty he had in mind the
fact that there are further means of
punishing the company. It wa

In his speeches during the closing

He dealt particularly with Secretary

THE DICTATING HABIT
Booth Tarkington does not dictate
his stories. He is a foe to the habit
of dictation.
"The dictating habit is a growing
one' he said recently. "Everybody
nowadays has a secretary and dic

TOLD FROM THE INSIDE
A red faced man' was holding the
attention of a little group with sone
wonderful recitals.
"The most exciting chase I ever
had," he said, "happened a short time
ago in Russia. One night when
sleighing, about ten miles from my
destination I discovered, to my in
tense horror, that I was being fol
lowed by a pack of wolves. I fired
blindly into the pack, killing one of
the brutes, and to my delight saw
the others stop to devour it. After
doing this, however, they came on
again. I kept on repeating the dose,
with the same result, and each re
spite gave me an opportunity to whip
Up my horses. Finally there was only
one wolf left, yet on it came, with
its fierce eyes glaring in anticipation
of a good, hot supper "
Here the man who had been sitting
.in the corner burst forth into a fit
of laughter.
"Why, man, by your way .of reckon
ing, that last wolf must have had the
rest of the pack inside of him!"
"Ah!" said the red faced man with
out a tremor, "now I remember It did

It may 'be doubted whether the pub
lice generally are fully aware of what
is already being done for the aged by
workingmen through their trade
unions and other great self-help or
ganizations. Forty of the principal
trade -unions paid in 1904 no less a
sum than 267,396 in superanuatkm
benefit. The Amalgamated Society of
Engineers itself is paying more than
100,000 a year to its aged members.
All this is in,addltlon to large expend
iture on the, unemployed, which again
is no doubt greatly swelled by those
who are made workless through old
age. The Northumberland and Dur
ham Miners' Permanent Relief Fund
has for many years made provision
for its aged members. In 1905, there
were 4,591 on the fund, the total
amount paid in superanuation for the
TRICKED BY DYSPEPSIA
The Doctor Couldn't Tell Where the
Trouble Lay
"For the past seven years I have
been a victim of dyspepsia and
chronic constipation and have consult-
ed the most noted specialists to be
found on diseases of this character.
None, however, seemed to locate the
difficulty or give relief., In addition
to this medical treatment, I have rej
sorted to the use of many remedies
and have given them faithful - trial,
but all to no purpose. '
Upon the recommendation of a close'
friend, I' purchased a 50c package of
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets and in" lesfc:
than five days noticed that I -was' re '
ceiving more benefit -than from -any
remedy I had used before. I contiri--'
ued to' use the tablets after each meal
for one month and by that time my
stomach was in a healthy condition,
capable of digesting anything which
my increasing appetite demanded.
I have not experienced any return
of my former trouble, though three
months have elapsed-since taking your
remedy."
We wish that you could see with
your own eyes- the countless other
bona fide signed letters from grateful
men and women all over the land who
had suffered years of agony with dys
pepsia, tried every known remedy and
consulted eminent specialists without
result, until they gave Stuart's Dys
pepsia Tablets a trial. Like the doctor
above, they couldn't locate the seat
of the trouble. .
Dyspepsia is a disease which has
long baffled physicians. So difficult of
location is the disease that cure seems
next to miraculous. There is only one
way to treat dyspepsia to supply the
elements which nature has ordained
to perform this function and to cause
them to enter the digestive organs,
supplying the fluids which they lack.
tstuarrs Dyspepsia Tablets alone fill
these requirements, as is shown by
the fact -that 40,000 physicians in the
UnitPd States and Canada unite in
recommending them to their patients
for stomach disorders.
We do not claim or expect Stuart's
Dyspepsia Tablets to cure anything
but disordered conditions of the stom
ach and other digestive orcrans, but,
this they never fall to do. They work
uponjihe inner lining of the stompch
and intestines, stimulate the gastric,.,
