Thousands of people wJio hadn't really enjoyed a meal for years Jiave given their stomach a new li-cse of life through hi wonder-workers, ftuart's Dybpepsla Tablets. They promptly put nn end to flatulency, heartbiin. dizziness, sick hcadacjie, dyspepsia, burning sensation, brash, "fermentation and the other ills at tendant upon a di.sordeied stomach. The Stomach Conda a Massage to the Brain the Instaat There Is Trouble.

They are Nature's digestives, tliu samo kind the stomach uses when it is In good health. Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets do not merely aid digestion they actually di gest tlio food themselves. All the hard work Is thus taken off the stomach and it gets a chance to rest nnd recuperate. Tho undigested food which formerly pro duced nauseating gases In the stomach becomes thoroughly digested and us . result provides new brain and brawif and nerve cells to replace natural waste al ways going on. Stuart's Pyspepsla Tablets aet quickly safely and naturally. Just like Nature herself. Tbey are a familiar and stand ard part of the stock of every proper! equipped drug store and uto sold al E0o u box.

Tlio criticism with which we want n , deal now Is that which declines that loo much Is spent in the administration "t relist in pioportlon to relief given. are glad that tills objection lias been ralrcd. On the surface of things it Is a most plausible objection, but it showi that our ciltles have observed merely the dlfferenco between expenditure tor ad ministration and that for relief purposej without reasoning on tlio whys and fio wherefores of the apparent tucongrults . Tho following explunutlon may be help. tuU Charity Is another word for love, al though, unfortunately. It lias lost its beauty of meaning from long abuse. "Or ganized charity Is organized love." Itj end and nlnt Is service to the poor. Serv ice may include relief, but relief (that if, material relief) is not necessarily charity work (love work). Sometimes Its pur poses may be served better by giving re lief; sometimes they may he served bet ter by withholding relief. "It Is tlio duty of all to be charitable," says Kdwurd Devlne. "No one is chnritable whose at tempts at relief result In help that hurts." Tlie mere supplying of physical wnnts might go on Indefinitely, and in all likeli hood our "successors would continue to deal wltli the applicants Wo now know mm wun meir un.mien. ami uieir cnu- droit s children, and nothing whatever j would bo accomplished. Tlie operation aa far as results aro concerned would lie about as successful as trying to fill a sieve wltH water. Nothing causes families to deterlorlnte faster and so unfits children for manhood and womanhood than tho giving of re lief without knowing and dealing In telligently with nil the facts of tho case On tho other hand tlicro Is danger lest a family deterloriato for want of ade quato relief when the facts demand. Wo believe thnt with care It Is possible to maintain a happy medium of procedure. APPROPRIATIONS ARE LIKELY Senate Committee Looks Into Needs of State Deaf Institute.

The comtnltteo was pleancd with the work that lias gon. forward In the manual training depart ment and seemed particularly willing lo endorse tlie appropriation asked for this department. It is in It that practical trades aro taught tho Inmates of the In stitution and they are fitted for various means of livelihood.' If the appropriations all go through, it will mean a number of changes. The building now used as a men's dormitory will bo torn down and tho building for tho segregation of the oral taught pupils irom tnoso wno nave oeen insirucieu uu- der the old method of signs will rcplac.-i lt The oral method, that of watching tho expression of tho lips, Is faBt winning favjr, and It Is deemed expedient to separate those who nro advanced In the older method from those in tlio new classes.

For such work as this It Is necessary to hnvo those who are well educated, thuso who have a lively sympathetic Imagination, and a brimd training If we are to work out the best that is in organized charity.
