Tam O'Shanter's ride through the
midnight wind with the horrible hob
goblins pursuing him was only bad
dream, or nightmare, which anybody is
liable to experience IS the result of over
eating or all attack of biliousness or in
digestion. To avoid such disagreeable
experiences one or two of DIR. Pierce's
Pleasant Pellets should be taken after
too hearty meal and the action of the
stomach will thereby be quickened and
the meal promptly digested
Then too if Nature be assisted a little
now and then in removing offending
matter from the stomach and bowels You
will thereby avoid multitude of dis
tressing arrangements and diseases, and
will have less frequent need for your
doctors services.
OF all known agents for this purpose,
DIR. Pierce's Pleasant Pellets are the best
Their secondary effect is to keep the
bowels open and regular, not to further
constipate, as is the case with other pills.
Hence, their great popularity with suf-
ferers from habitual constipation, piles
and their attendant discomfort and man
fold arrangements.
The Pellets cure biliousness, sick and
bilious headache, dizziness, costiveness,
or constipation, sour stomach, loss of ap-
petite, coated tongue, indigestion, or
dyspepsia, windy belchings, "heart-
burn" pain and distress after eating,
and kindred arrangements of the liver,
stomach and bowels. One little "Pel-
let P" is laxative, two are mildly ca
thartic.

WHAT is WANTED.

Secretary Carlisle's views are incor-
porated in the report. He says:
"A properly equipped and suitably built
vessel for service upon the great lakes
should he of 700 or 500 tons burden. all
steel and of ample steanIin@ power. When
commerce is afloat on the lakes, from the
opening to the close of navigation, a vessel
to do the work of a revenue cutter eff
cientiy should be an able seasoing craft.
because heavy gales and seas are encoun-
tered upon the great la kes where else. "
With steel vessels with modern hulls and
all the mechanical appliances OF the day
the committee thinks the lakes could be
very well protected. One such vessel is
now being built and two more are needed.

FIGHTERS IN TEN DAYS
New Revenue Cutters Can Be
Changed Into Warships.
TWO MORE BADLY NEEDED
Present Fleet Is Obsolete and Really
of No Use-Part of Their Present
Duty Is TO save Life-Every Steamer
on the Lake Is Safer Than These.
Congress Urged to Act.

The navy is likely 10 receive an addi-
tional reinforcement from an unexpected
source.
The Committee on Commerce wants TO
put on the great lakes three steel revenue
cutters. They are to he used for the pur-
pose designated.
BY treaty the great lakes are a sort OF
an American Dardanelles. No cruiser or
armored fighting vessel is permitted To
sail on the waters. But this little plan
will outwit the law.
These steel cutters will be OF the most
modern make. In ten days they can be
changed into fighting vessels. The Can
adams have several vessels Of this kind
and this country feels that she should be
on the same footing.
THE PRESENT FORCE
Mr. Mcmillan, from the Committee on
Commerce, made the report recommending
the building the two cutters. In making
the report he speaks as follows OF the
steamers already on the lakes:
For years the regular force of revenue
cutters on the upper lakes has been the
Andrew johnson for service on Lakes
VII
Lakes Huron and St Clair and the St
Clair and Detroit Rivers, and the Perry on
Lake Erie Besides these vessels there is a
tug for Chicago harbor service
The johnson is a wooden boat built in
1865, and constructed quickly To meet an
emergency. II cost S92,0CO, and in thirty
years more than $4,000 has been spent
for repairs. The Fessenden has an iron
hull, with wooden upper works. and is a
slow side-wheel vessel Like the johnson,
she was built al a time when the threatened
raids from Canada made it imperative that
vessels fitted to maintain the neutrality
laws should be constructed with all possible
haste. Neither tue johnson nor the Fes-
sender are worth repairing to the extent
necessary to fit them for the work they
are called upon to do.
THE Perry, a screw steamer with tOpsail
schooner rig. and by far the most service
able of the three steamers, was ordered to
the Pacific last year for service in Bering
Sea. This leaves the lakes service short
one vessel. and this, too, at Il time when
fast. One service that the revenue cutters
is supposed to perform is that of assisting
vessels in distress, but there are now few
vessels on the lakes that are not safer than
either the Johnson or the Fessendcn in
heavy weather.
