Ken den Decision in Case of Collis'oD, M0T0RMAN MUST USE DUE CAUTION No Reason to Assume He Haa s Clear Track Simply Because No Regular Crossing; Is In Sight. ST. LOUIS. , OHarch 10. In the United Statea court of appeals an opinion handed down by Judgo Thayer, concurred In by Judge Caldwell,' defines' the rights and privileges of pedestrians and vehicles upon street railway tracks and the duties of mo tormen in running their cars. The plaintiff In the case, whose vehicle had been wrecked and the occupants In jured, tet forth that the motorman was guilty of negligence, and the defense set up the claim that the plaintiff was guilty of contributory , negligence. Tbls was the main question at Issue In the appeal. Judge Thayer held that a motorman is under the same obligations to exercise or dinary care snd prudence so ss to avoid collisions and the Injuring of persona ss these persons are to exercise care not to get in the way of street cars so as to be run over and Injured. He says pedestrians and vehicles have a right to cross tho tracks of street railways at any point besides the regular crossings, and to use the tracks for any distance for YOU CAN INTEREST HIM. Any Man Over Fifty. You ran interest any man over fifty years of age in anything that will make him feel tetter, because while he may not as yet bave any positive organic disease, be no longqr feels the buoyancy and vigor of twenty-Qve nor the freedom from aches and pains he enjoyed in earlier years, and he very naturally examines with interest any proposition looking to tbe improve ment and preservation cf his health. He will notice among other things that the stomach of fifty is a very different one from the stomach he possessed at twenty five. That greatest care must be exercised as to what is eaten and how much of it, and even with the best of care there will be increasing digestive weakuess with ad vancing years. A proposition to perfect or improve the digestion and assimilation of food Is one which Interests not only every man of fifty, but every nwn. woman and child of any age. because the whole secret of good health, good blood, strong nerves, is to have a stomach which will promptly and thoroughly digest wholesome food, be cause blood, nerves, brain tissue and every other constituent of the body Is entirely the product of digestion, and no medicine or "health" toad can possibly create pure blood or restore shaky nerves when a weak stomach is replenishing the dally wear and tear of the body from a mass of tormenting half digested fcod. No, the stomach Itself wants help, and In no roundabout way, either; it wants direct, unmistakable ass'stance, such as Is given by Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets after each meal. These tablets cure stomach trouble be cause their use give the stomach a chance to rest and recuperate; one of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets contains digestive ele ments sufficient to digest 3,000 grains of ordinary food, such as bread, meats, eggs, etc. Tbe plan of dieting is simply another name for starvation, and tbe use of pre pared foods and new-fangled breakfast foods simply makes matters worse, as any dyspeptic who has tried tbem knows. As Dr. Dennett cays, tbe only reason I can Imagine wby Stuart's Dyspepsia Tab lets are not universally used by everybody who la troubled In any way with poor di gestion Is because many people seem to think that because a medicine is advertised or is sold in drug stores or is protected by a trade mark must be a humbug, wbereaa, as a matter of truth, any drug gist who is observant knowa .that Stuart's Dyspepsia Tsblets bave cured more people of Indigestion, heartburn, heart trouble, nervous prostration and run-down condi tion generally than all the patent medi cines sod doctors' prescriptions for stomach trouble coubiatd. a matter of safety or convenience, where they do not unnecessarily interfere with or obstruct the passage of tbe cars. A mo torman, he says, has no right to act on the assumption that be Is entitled to a clear track at all times, and that pedestrians or vehicles are bound at their peril, no matter at what Inconvenience, to get out of the way. He hel that the plaintiff in this case bad a right to use the street railway tracks, as a convenience. In avoiding the mudholc In tbe street, and that the motorman was guilty , ot negligence. In not taking proper precautions to reduce the speed of his car when he saw the vehicle, to as to bring it under such control that he could have avoided the collision. Judge Sanborn filed a lengthy dissenting opinion. He holds the trial judge erred In refusing to allow the claim of contribu tory negligence on the plaintiff's part. Kenr tierni De:royer.

Contagious Blood Poison, beginning with a little ulcer, soon contaminates every drop of blood and spreads throughout the whole system. Painful swellings appear in the groins, a red rash and copper col ored splotches break out on the body, the mouth and throat become ulcerated, and the hair and eye brows fall out ; but these symptoms are mild compared to the wretchedness and suffering that come in the latter stages of the disease when it attacks the bones and more vital parts of the body. It is then thitt Contagious Blood Poison is seen in all its hideousness. The deep eating ab scesses and sickening ulcers and tumors show the whole system is corrupted and poisoned, aud unless relief comes soon thi3 serpent disease tightens its coils and crushes out the life.
