Dyspepsia is the prevailing malady Of

acts very slowly or not at all on many
kinds Of food. gases are extricated, acids
are formed and become o source OF pain
and disease until discharged, To be dys-
peptic Is to be miserable, hopeless, depress-

'drowsy, weak, lapguid and useless. 1t
destroys theteeth, complexion, strength,
peace of mind and bodily-ease. IL pro-

Custom 0fficer.-Port Huron or the
Saginaw Valley.

The next collector of customs for
this district will be selected either
from Port Huron, Bay City or Sagi-
nav. On this subject the Bay City
Tribune has the following to say:
"What is the matter Of Geo. f.
Lewis to prevent him accepting the
place? No name that has been or is
likely to be named can carry more
weight, in every way, physically,
mentally or politically, or suggest
more valid or impressive reasons why
the commission should bear it, than
Immediately spring to view and clus-
ter around the name of Geo. f. Lewis.
No Democrat who lives on the Sagi-
nav river who is moro deserving or
who possesses in larger measure the
Jacksonian qualifications. of honesty,
capacity and fidelity, and what Demo
crat is there on these waters who is
more representative of the best there
is in the party, or whose attachments,
devotion and labors have been more
steadfast, untiring, indefatigable and
selfsacriicing in and to the cause of
Democracy than those of Geo. F. Lew
is! Then, quite as important, and
perhaps a great deal more so, he does
not belong especially to any city of
the valley, but to all the cities. Be-
cause of his cosmopolitan position, his
appointment would leave no bitter
taste in the mouth of any section of
the valley, but would reconcile all
differences and remove sectional
strife"
