Prescribes THINK IT OVER Something You Can See in Every Res taurant or Cafe. 0 A physician puts the query: Have you ever noticed in any large restaurant at lunch or dinner time the largo number of hearty, vigorous old men at the tables; men whoso ages run from CO to SO years; many of them bald and all perhaps gray, Init none of them feeble or senile? Perhaps the spectacle Is so common as to have escape! your observation or com ment, but nevertheless It is an object lesson which means something. If you will notice what these hearty old fellows are eating you will observe that they are not munching bran crack ers nor gingerly picking their way through a menu card of new fangled health foods; on the contrary they seem to prefer r juicy roast of beef, a prop erly turned loin of mutton, and even the deadly broiled lobster is not alto gether ignored. The point of this is that a vigorous old age depends upon good digestion and plenty of wholesome food and not upon dieting and nn endeavor to live upon bran crackers. There is a certain class of food cranks who seem to believe that meat, coffee, nnd many other good thinss are rani: poisons, but these cadaverous, sickly look ing individuals are a walking condemna tion of their own theories. The mutter in a nutshell is that If the Ftomach secretes the natural digestive juices In sufficient quantity any whole some food will be promptly digested; if the stomnch does not do so, and cer tain foods cause distress one or two of Stuart's Dysiepsin. Tablets after each meal will remove all onficulty because they supply Just what every weak stom ach lacks, pepsin, hydro-chloric acid, diastase and nux. Stuart's Dyspepski Tablets do not act upon the bowels and in fact are not etrictly a medicine, as they act almost entirely upon the food eaten, digesting it thoroughly and thus gives a much needed rest and giving an appetite for the neM meal. Of people who travel nine out of ten use Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets, knowln? them to be perfectly safe to use at any time and also having found out by ex perience that they are a safeguard against indigestion in any form, and eat ing as they have to. at all hours and all kinds of food, the traveling public for years have pinned their faith to Stu art's Tablets. All druggists sell them at 50 cents for full steed packages and any druggist from Maine to CalifomlR. if his opinion were asked, will say that Stuart's Dys pepsia Tablets is the most popular and successful remedy for any stomach trouble.

"Wichita people who visit the Kansas Steam Laundry for the first time are as tounded at the magnitude of the plant and the perfection of the work turned out. Messrs. Cone & Cornell already have over $50,000 invested in their plant, but it is to be made still larger. The firm has purchased the two lots directly east of the present laundry. fronting on Lawrence avenue, and this spring they will erect a modern two- story brick building on these lots. In this building will be a modern up-to-date hotel and family laundry department. They already have ample steam power of ISO horse power and when the new build ing is erected it will be connected with the present one by a tunnel under the alley so that the steam can be used from the present machinery in both buildings, i Traveling men who visit all the Kan sas towns do not hesitate to say that the Kansas Steam Laundry is the equal j of an Institution of the kind in the' west, and that no other city of not more ; than 30,000 people in America can equal j it.
