They feel medn, out of sorts, peevish, do not sleep well, do ng. have a good keen appe- tite, do not have the inclination and energy for physical or mental work they once had, but at the same time do not feel any particular pain or dis- tress in the stomach. Yet all this is the result of poor digestion, an insid- ious form of dyspepsia which can only | : > | haps as the grandest event of its kind be cured by a remedy specially intend- ed to cure it ges the food eaten, Bitters, after din- ner pills and nerve tonics will help the trouble; they don't reach The new medical discovery does. It is called Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets is a specific for dyspepsia and indiges- tion. It cures because it digests all wholesome food taken in- to the stomach, whether the stomach is in good avorking order or not. Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets by di- gesting the food, instead of making the worn out® stomach do all work, gives it a much needed rest and a cure of dyspepsia is the natural re- sult. When you are nervous, run down and sleepless, don't make the common mis- take of supposing your nervous sys- tem needs treatment and fill your sto- mach with powerful nerve tonics which make you feel good for a little while only to fall back farther than ever. Your all right but the; are starved, they want food. Nourish them with wholesome day food and plenty of it, well laugh at nerves are every di gested, and vou can tonics and Sut the nerves will not from a weak, abused stomach, but when the digestion has been made per- fect by the use of this remedy all ner- vous symptoms disappear. Who ever heard of a man man blessed with a vigorous digestion and good appetite being troubled with their nerves ? Good digestion means a strong ner- vous system, abundance of energy and capacity to enjoy the life. Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets will cer tainly set your stomach and digestive organs right; they can't help but do it because they nourish the body by digesting the food eaten, and rest the medicine or WwWo- stomach.

City Engineer Kirkpatrick submitted the following report touching next year's requirements in the streets de- partment. "The amount of money that the board will have at its disposal for 1903 has a great deal to do with the estimates that gre submitted for work for 1903. The probable amount that will be available is arrived at as fol- lows : Uncontrollable expenditure, «.000; controllable expenditure (not including board of works), £51,950, Estimated revenue, $157,100. From this deduct the uncontrollable and 'ontrollable expenditure, not including board of works allowance, and it will leave a surplus of $3,150 available for the board of works.
