It is a matter of history that Napoleon was a gormand, an inordinate lover of the good things of the table, and history further records that his favorite dish was fried onions; his death from cancer. it is claimed also, was probably caused from his excessive indulgence of this fondness for the odorous vegetable. The onion is undoubtedly wholesome article of food, in fact has many medicinal qualities of value, but it would be difficult to find a more indigestible article than fried onions, and to many people they are simply poison, but the onion does not stand alone in this respect Any article of food that whether it be fried onions or of disease and. Miscomfort The reason why any wholesome food is not digested is because tho stomach lacks some important element of digestion, some stomachs lack peptone, others are deficient in gastric juice, still others lack hydrochloric acid.

The one thing necessary to do in any case of poor digestion is to supply those elements of digestion which the stomach lacks, and nothing does this 80 thoroughly' and safely 88 Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets. Dr. Richardson in writing a thesis on treatment of dyspepsia and indigestion, closes his remarks by saying, "for those suffering from acid dyspepsia, shown by sour, watery risings, or for flatulent dyspepsia shown by gas on stomach, causing heart trouble and difficult breathing, as, well as for all other forms of stomach trouble, the safest treatment is to take one or two of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets after each meal. I advise them because they contain no harmful drugs, but are composed of valuable digestives, which act promptly upon the food eaten. I never knew a case of indigestion or even chronic dyspepsia which Stuart's Tablets would not reach.

Cheap cathartic medicines claiming to cure dyspepsia and indigestion can have no effect whatever in actively digesting the food, and to call any cathartic medicine a cure for indigestion is a misnomer. Every druggist in the United States and Canada sells Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets, and they are not only the safest. and most successful but the most scientific any treatment for indigestion and stomach troubles. 10,12,14 is not thoroughly digested becomes a 93 South Main street for several years, has sold out and will remove to Nor. folk.

Gordon Finney declares in an one? He that he favors competition in the city lighting, a 3-cent fare with a competing trolley line for workingmen during certain hours; a 10-cent fare to Pittston: river bank improvements, including a protecting wall, and a steady response to 'the honest demands of the people. There are candidates who make pledges to break them afterwards. But Dr. Finney is not that kind of a man. His record is clean on that point.

What he says he will do, he will accomplish if he can. That is characteristic of him. 'He has attracted the attention of the toilers and they are rallying to his support He is backed also by hundreds who believe that the mayor of WilkesBarre should not be a corporation sympathizer.

Ninety men out of every hundred wind up a watch at the wrong time. The man who winds his watch up just before going least. to bed is foolish. in this respect at in Watches should be wound UP the morning. A man is interested in keeping correct time during the day, when he must catch a train, get to the bank at a certain hour and keep his bustness engagements generally.

If he winds his watch at night the spring begins to lag during the time when he wants to know the exact hour. There are men who wind their watches several times a day. They make a mistake. A watch should be wound once every twenty-foun hours, and no more. Chas.
