EVERYTHING SEEMS WRONG

To the dyspeptic. The world is upside down; the
times are out Of joint he's ready to turn his back
upon his best friend.
Now, the thing that oftenest Is wrong with dys-
peptics is their choice of a remedy. 1t seems to
lie between drugs and medicines the one ha nd
and the Carlsbad Sprudel Salt on the ether. They
can't both be right; there's too much difference in
their methods and in their results.
Carlsbad-the Sprudel Spting at Carlsbad has
been curing dyspeptics for hundreds of years. Its
natural solvent and stimulating properties correct
perverted nutrition, repair waste and bring back
a healthy digestion and appetite.
The only genuine imported Sprudel Salt 0he
water solicited at the spring, has the signature of
''EISNER & MENDELSON CO., ASA, New York,

exceptionally strong, and is carried out
in the fact that China has been bid
ding above the market for future deliv-
cries two months ahead. Now, I call
that Significant; for a few weeks
back such an action would have been
considered fool-hardy in the extreme.
Silver futures have not been in favor
on either the New York or London
stock exchanges the past year. 1t is
said that the large purchases made of
late have been on German account and
to this is due the advance, but be that
as 1t may 1t is all grist that comes to

Perhaps I take prejudiced view;
but this coming into the market by
various European and Asiatic nations
leads me to think that it is but a pre-
cursor of what other nations will do,
and, perhaps, who knows, lead up to
the rehabilitation of silver. 1 am aware
that this is a Sanguine view in these
depressed times, but if the self-conse-
ouential wise-acres of the east have
been wrong thus far by celebrated OBJ
iect lessons why not take an opposite
tack. No novice of the west can be
more in error than the financiers of
the east have been in theirs forecasts.

The Upward Tendency.

! The steady rise of silver, the steady
increase of inquiries about Salt Lake
from the east. the circumstance that
our hotels are filed with strangers, the
fact that in all the west there is no
city with so excellent a credit as ours,
that it has no rival in geographical
conditions. the spreading knowledge of
the diversity and value of it's resources
are all indications that prosperity is
coming to this region, and coming to
stay. American capital has always
been reluctant to invest in territories,
and foreign capital has been prohibited
from investing by law. These two cir
cumstances have operated to retard
the growth of Utah and Salt Lake; but
these distractions are now practically
removed. The very fact that state
hood is assured ought in itself to in
sure us large investments from the
outside BY no system of reasoning
can any other conclusion than that we
are to have from now on steady and
permanent growth, be reached. AS the
waters that flow into the lake record
their entrance in lines along the
shores. so the coming in of new popu-
lation will be evidenced by the growth
of the suburbs. There is no vacant
space to fill between Popperton Place
be to Popperton, not only because there
is no vacant room to be filled west of
it. but because the attractions it Of
fers. the view, air, health, conditions
and the guarantee we give of good sur
roundings are irresistible. The man
who buys there now will find that the
profit on his property will more than
keep pace with interest on the sum in
vested. The good locations are going
slowly; but they are going, and after
while, if you get what you want,
YOU will have to buy out some purchas-
err at a good, healthy advance.
