Tours to California.

California has been most fttingly termed
the Italy of America" All the delicious
balm, the cloudless sky, and the rich ver-
dure of the great European peninsula are
duplicated in this sunny land of the Pacific.
Here nature basks in the sunshine of her own
beauty; and here she has established her
own sanitarium, where eternal spring in
spires everlasting youth. With the snow
mantled peaks of the Sierras upon the one
hand, the calm Pacific with its soft breezes
upon the other, and veritable paradise of
flowers, fruits and plants between, man can
find and needs no lovelier land. To visit
such country is privilege a blessing.

recognizing the need of a more comfortable
and pleasant way of crossing the continent,
inaugurated Il series of annual tours to Cali
fornia, running through train of Pullman
palace ears from New York to the Pacific

pha, and Pittsburg, January 81, February

IT CAN'T BE DONE.
No One Can Remain Well, No Chronic

ana vigorous.
This is plain because every organ in the
body depends on the stomach for its nourish-
ment. Nerve, bone, sinew, blood are made
from the food which the stomach converts to
our use
How useless to treat disease with this, that
and the other remedy and neglect the most
important of all the stomach.
The earliest symptoms of indigestion are
sour risiugs, had taste in the mouth, gas in
stomach and bowels, palpitation, nll-gone
feeling faintness, headaches constipation !;
later comes loss Of flesh, consumption, liver
and heart troubles kidney diseases, nervous
prostration, all Of which are the indirect re-
suit of poor nutrition.
Any person suffering from indigestion
should make it practice to take after each
meal one of Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets, al
lowing it to dissolve in the mouth and thus
mngle with the saliva and enter the stomach
in the most natural way. These Tablets are
highly recommended by DR.. Jonnison because
they are composed of the natural digestive
acids and fruit essence which assist the
stomach in digesting all wholesome food be-
fore il has time to ferment and sour.

THE FAIR WILL AGAIN.
Expects Declare That Mrs. Craven's "Doc-
uments" Are All Clever Forgeries

uments" Are All Clever Forgeriea
SAN Francisco, Dec 14.-The Chronicle
says that Messrs Ames and Carvalho, the
New York experts who came out here in
the interests of the Fair children, have
made report in which they declare the
pencil will to be forgery. The deed TO
half million dollars worth of property,
held by Mrs. Nettle r. Craven, and her
contract marriage with the late Senator
Fair are also placed in the same category.
When Senator Fair died he left n vast
estate, valued at from $40, 900 to $40,-
100000 In his will he took elaborate
precautions to keep the estate intact, and
the property was left in the shape OF
trust for the benefit of Dis children, Mrs.
Herman Oelrichs, of New York, Miss
Virginia Fair and Charles L. Fair.
The children objected to the trust
clause and sought somewhere to avoid it,
Then IL was that Mrs. Craven, q school
teacher, and mother of Margaret Craven,
the actress produced will of later
date written with n pencil, In which Sen
ator Fair distributed his estate among
his children without any trusts. The heirs
were at first disposed to accept this pencil
will, but changed their minds when Mrs.
Craven produced deeds to valuable prop
erty which she said had been left to her
by Senator Fatr, and also marriage
contract with the late senator. Then it
was that the New York experts were
brought here to examine the various doc
uments. Their belief is as stated-that
Mrs. Craven documents are all forgeries,
