B; rd. D. I. ; Mayor J. K. A Tablet Digests a. Meal. Trial Pack age Free. Most people eat most foods without discrimination it matters little what. Few stop to think wliat that food does for them. This is the first turn on the road to dyspepsia. Reckless disregard oi the proper cholcei of foods, rapid eating and improper .mastication, are the unquestioned causes of all stom ach disorders from the slight ache to the malignant cancer. There is nothing more revolting than a dyspeptic stomach i very vat for putrefaction, sending forth Its poison throughout the entire system, depressing- the brain, befouling the breath, souring the taste, deadening, the muscles, incapacitating the liver and kidneys for their work, debilitat ing the heart, choking the lunga and clogging the bowels. All of these disagreeable and dan gerous conditions are due to the im proper digestion of food and the con sequent assimilation of poison. What else can be expected T If the food lies In the stomach, if the system Is con stipated, fermentation la the natural outcome. It shows Itself In sour wat ery risings, belchlngs, heartburn and painful breathing. There is only one way to remove this condition.

Stuart Co., jOieaa company, hvm Provision J50 Stuart ,Bd, VJarsltalV J , ' Sitting on a bunk in the county jail and -unconcernedly playing cards with one of the other prisoners, Ross French, a 21 years old Cherokee In dian of the western band, who la charged with murder and attempted criminal assault of Miss Ethel Shuler, the 14 years old daughter of George Shuler of Swain county, near Bird town, Thursday afternoon, and who was brought here yesterday from the Waynesville jail to escape a mob. seemed unmindful of the crime which he is said to have confessed and of the danger of being lynched, which he had just escaped. Talks to Reporter. When first seen by a reporter the Indian appeared aa though he were willing to talk but as soon aa the con versation approached the subject of the crime he said, "I can't stand much from you," and would not talk much mure. He said, however, that he had been to Birdtown to play ball and had met the young girl and asked her why "she was mad" at him. He bIbo said she had struck him on the head with a stone. To the officer who brought him here he confessed the crime, stating that ho had attempted criminal assault and that the girl had fought him, and get ting hold of a rock had struck him, after which he drew his knife and cut her throat. Body Found Thursday Night The body of the girl was found Thursday night about 8 o'clock on the road which leads from Birdtown through some woods, a few hours after she had left Trantham's store at that place. French was placed under arrest the next morning and it Is said the top of his hat was covered with blood, but that he had disposed of the clothes he wore the day before. Ho accounted for the blood on his hat at the time by saying that his wife had thrown a dead bird at him, that he had killed. Fled From the Mob. French was placed in jail at Bryson City to await trial at the next term of court, which Is to bej held in a , few ' weeks, s It was learned . sr the officers, however, that the farmers of the section were very angry and were talking of taking the Indian from the jail, and Deputy Sheriff Beck left with him yesterday morning to place him in the Waynesville jail for safe keep ing. It was not long until the officer heard that the avenging mob was on the way to Waynesville and the militia waa called out to protect the prisoner. At the same time the offi cers evidently felt that French would be safer elsewhere and he was taken from the jail by way of the back door, placed in an automobile and taken to Clyde, where Deputy Sheriff Beck boarded the train with his prisoner for Asheville. It was on the way that he made his confession, after which he requested that his body be sent back to his wife in the Indian reserva tion when he had paid the penalty of hla crime. The Indian will probably be kept here until court convenes In Swain county, and he will then be taken to Bryson City to be tried. There were reports yesterday that the angry mob meant to follow to Asheville and at tempt a delivery but there has been no sign of anything of the kind. French stated this morning that he Is the son of Will French, who Is how in South Carolina. "I'd like to see Will mighty well." said ha.
