Now that Christmas things arc nil fin

WHAT SHALL WE EAT.
To Keep llrnlth)- unit Strong,
A healthy appetite mid common bouso nre
excellent guides to follow In matters of diet,
and a mixed dlot of grains, fruits and meats
Is undoubtedly tho best, tu eplto of tho
claims mado by vegetarians nnd food cranks
gcnorally.
As compared with grains and vegetables,
meat furnishes tho most nutriment In a
highly concentrated form and Is digested
and assimilated more quickly than vugctu
bleu or grains,
Dr. Julius Komusson on this subject says:
Nervous persons, peopla run down In health
and of low vitality should eat plenty of
moat. If tho digestion Is too feeble at first
It may bo easily strengthened by the rcgu
lar use of Stuart'a Dyspepsia Tablets after
each meal. Two of theso excellent tablets:
taken nfter dtnnor will digest scverul thou
sand grains ot meat, eggs or other animal
food In three or four hours, willo tho malt
diastase also contained In Stuart's Tablets
causo tho porfect digestion of starchy foodtf,
like potatoes, bread, etc., and no raattor
how weak tho stomach may be, no trouble
will bo experienced If a regular practice Is
mado of using Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets
because thoy Biipply tho pepsin and diastase
lo necessary to perfect digestion, and any
form of Indigestion and stomach trouble
except cancer of tho stomach will bo over-
como by their dally use.
That largo class of people who como under
tho head of nervous dyspepsia should eat
plenty ot meat and insure Its complete dl-
pestlou by tho syatematlo use of a safe.
harmless digestive medicine like Stuart'a
Dyspepsia Tablets composed ot tho natural
digestive principles, poptonos and dlnstnao,
which actually perform the work of dlges
tlon nnd give the abused stomach u chance
to reBt and to furnish tho body and brain
with tho necessary nutriment. Cheap ca
tbartlo medicines masquerading under tho
nanio of dyspepsia cures are uselesB for re
lief or euro of Indigestion because they havo
absolutely no effect upon the actuul dlges
tlon or food.
Dyspepsia in nil Its forms Is simply n fall
u ro of tho Btomach to digest food and the
senBtblo wuy to solvo tho riddle unit euro
the Indigestion Is to niako dally usu at
meal tlmo of a sufo preparation which Is
endorsed by tho medical profession and
known to certain active digestive prlncl
pleB, and all UiIb can truly bo said ot Stu
art's Dyspepsia Tablets.

coming from Minneapolis with tho strong
Indorsement of tho Woman's council,
Woman's Christian Temperance union und
other such organizations of that city, It
being her plan to co-opcrnto with tho
churches, associated charities and mission
workers of tho city. Owing to its name, tho
real object of the league la frequently mis
judged. It la In no way connected with tho
Kceley institutions, only as it sends its
patients to them to bo cured of tho drink
habit. It first cures the men of tho al
coholic disease, paying for the treatment
when ho enters tho lnstttuto nnd taking his
nolo for tho full amount nnd requiring him
to pay It back In monthly Installments, as
his circumstances will permit. This creates
a revolving fund which Is used over and
over again, for more thun two-thirds of
those benefited pay back. Tho leaguo looks
after his family whllo ho Is taking the treat
ment and endeavors to havo work for him
whon he has finished It. This Is a needful
work and not otherwise systematically pro
vided for aud has kopt many families from
becomlug a charrjo upon charity. This work
Is not entirely unknown In Omaha, Mrs.
Dutcher having presented It nt tho meeting
of tho National Council of Women which
convened hero two weeks ago. Mrs. Dutcluir
will begin by explaining tho work at tho
prayer meetings In as mauy of tho churches

thoroughly established here.
