The Lunch Counter
Is the Cause of Dyspepsia and Indi
gestion, Catarrh of the Stomach
and Heart Disease.
Srise-Teattva of Those Who Zat There
Bolt Bows Their rood.
The next time you eat at a lunch counter
Just you watch the people opposite. Look
down the whole line and notice how they
bolt down their food, washing; It down
w1$h hot coffee or cold water. First they
take a large bite and then a drink, a bite
and a drink, hurrying- through their meal
In five oc ten minutes.
i Many of them don't know the correct
Way to eat, while others are so Intent on
money-making that they will not take the
time to eat properly.
The lunch counters create a great demand
for Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets, for every
one now know that they assist the atom-,
ach In digesting the food that haa been
suddenly forced down Into It.
Health should be lha first thing sought
foe tn the battle of existence.
With a sound body all things are pos-
alble to man, while Ill-health handlcapa
tin.
The dyspeptlo Is usually grouchy and
cannot meet -hie fellow-man In the proper
ptrlt to win hla confidence and esteem.
t4ny a fine proposition has failed because
a frspeptlc waa back of it.
Your brain does not work right where
yneptic conditions prevail,' neither does
an organ of the body.
3rt your digestive ' apparatus In perfect
eoodltlon first and all will jro well with
you.
Take Stuart'a Dyspepsia Tablets Until you
cure yourself of Indigestion, catarrh of the
stomach and dyspepsia, and yonr heart,
Irver, brain and all the organs of the body
will perform their functions properly and
yoh will be In sound health.
Don't give up In dlapalr, but get right
enfl all things will come your way and
fortune will again smile on you.

got a severe Jolt In the supreme court, the
facts becoming known only today. Suit
waa started by City Attorney Stewart to
declare void the franchises given to these
companies be sure a blanket franchise was
wotod. allowing them the use of all streets
without specifying: them or the terminals.
Three weeks ago the court held that the
franchises were void, but the opinion was
not given to tha public, the court Instead
giving each of the attorneys a copy of the
opinion and then calling for a re-argu-mcnt.
That argument was made at the
last sitting of the court and the next opin
ion may be different, should the first opin
ion hold the two companies could not oc
cupy new streets or make extensions with
out first submitting the question to a vote
of the people.

Rulrnsr on County Deposits.
Attorney General Thompson has given the
following opinion to C. I Outtereon,
county attorney of Custer county:
I have the honor to acknowledge receipt
of your letter of November 27. relative to
construction of section 20, chapter 18, ar
ticle 3, compiled statutes of 1907. The prop
osition you submit la substantially aa fol
lows: Is the county treasurer authorised to
deposit with a depository bank the full
amount named In the depository bond or
mav he deposit only 60 per cent of the
peralty expressed therein?
The statute, as it existed prior to April
6, 1P07. expressly declared that the treasurer
shall not have on deposit In any bank at
any time more than one-half the amount of
said bond. The legislature amended said
section at the last session by Senate File
410. The amendatory act was passed with
an emersrency clauxe and took effect upon
Its approval, April 5, 1H07. The amendment
entirely omitted the limitation above men
tioned. Thereforo, I thing it is fair to as
sume that the legislature Intended thereby
to allow deposits to be made to the full
amount of the bond.
I may add however. I do not think this
act could In any manner affect honda that
have been given and approved prior to the
taking effect of thla wc or the liabilities
of the parties thereunder. With reference,
hlwever, to bonds given subsequent to the
taking effect of this act. It is my opinion
the county treasurer Is authorised to do
gosl the full amount expressed In the
tookUg for Old.Ttnaera. v
D. W. Johnson, who was a member of
the territorial legislature and who at one
time served aa chairman of the committee
on federal relations, wants to get In touch
with some other members of the territorial
legislature. MY. Johnson now lives at
Otego, Kan., and Is 88 years old. His
daughter, Mrs. J. A. Wiggins, wrote to
Secretary of State Junkln this morning.
asking for the address of any old-time
legislator he might have record of. She
said hw father was still In good health.
Ifoyt Offends the Board.
Members of the State Board of Publlo
Lands and Buildings are considerably
wrought up because heads of state Insti
tutions persist In falling to observe certain
rules of the board in the matter of buying
for the Institutions. D. W. Iloyt, com
mander of the Grand Island Soldiers' home,
Is the latest offender. He sent In a bunch
of claims recently and marked on the out
sldo with a lead pencil Is the statement,
"Permit asked for." The board will be
compelled to look back over Its records to
see whether It ever granted the permit.
Either that or return the vouchers to Hoyt
and cause some more delay. The board
has recently InslAed that the written permit-be
attached to the voucher.
