Nearly All Dyspepsia Intestinal.

When we say upon the best of authority that man requires three times as much starchy and fatty foods as he does meat, and, further, that all such foods are digest ed in the small intestine, simple arithmetic should demonstrate that three-quarters of all dyspepsia finds it's seat below the stomach.
 Strange as it may seem, until Claude Der nard, the great French physlologlst, discov' cred that Ether exerts peculiar stimulat- ing influence on the glands of the small ln' testine, physicians were powerless to aid this large class of sufferers. In such cases they almost invariably put the patient on meat diet, but this involves rapid loss or weight and strength, and does not aim at cure of the disease.
 Our Etherol presents Ether in practical form, combined with principles which act lively aid the digestion of meats in the sto' mach It is therefore calculated to reach every case of indigestion, and the results thus far obtained In it's use are so very en- couraging that you are well justified in giv- ing 1t a trial.
 It's use will increase the strength and fat of the body; in other words, arrest the wasting always present in anaemia and consumption.
 If your druggist does not have it, we will send bottle, charges paid, upon receipt of price, 50 cents. Address, The Equitable Chemical Co.,. 30 Reade St, New York

INDIAN DIVORCES.
The Court Playing Havoc With Tribal
 Customs

The Court Playing Havoc With Tribal Customs
 With most of the plains Indians mar riage consits simply of picking out the maiden, leading her to a cabin or wig wam and installing her as mistress of the house and cornfield, sometimes with the necessary preliminary of paying the father pony or two or an instalment of blankets, and occasionally with some slight ceremony performed by a chief or medicine man. And when the brave grows tired of his partner he can get rid of her as easily as he won her. The people who are now flocking to the Dakotas or Oklahoma to get di- vorces would be supremely happy if they could throw off the galling bonds of wedlock as easily as does the reserva- ton Indian. The fact having been form ally announced by the head man of the clan, the divorce takes place when the tribe is gathered at a dance When all are assembled and the circle formed, the discontented warriors strikes a drum used by the jewellers, gives away a few
 
 the squaw he intends to take next), and then in a short, bombastic speech he stigmatizes his wife by giving her over to the tender mercies of other braves, while they look upon him enviously and consider that he has performed an act of bravery in his assertion.
 Often as many as half a dozen di- vorces are thus obtained at single dance. No tedious waiting, no courts no lawyers and no trouble about ali mony or the custody of children. And the squaws thus cast off, as a general thing, seem to take it as matter of course and before the close of the dance are using the wiles known and used by the woman of the world in an effort to repair as speedily as possible the break in their hearts and matri- monial experience.
 With the taking of land in severalty and putting on of citizenship, however the Indian finds that he has cemented the ties that were so loose before, for the courts everywhere are deciding that the tribal marriages are legal and binding upon the Indian who becomes citizen. And if the weight of one legal marriage wears somewhat heavily upon white man, how must it be with the red man, who has contracted two, three, four or even more alliances which the court now declares legal and at the same time takes away his former ave- nue of relief?-St Louis GIobe-Demo- crat.

 Exceedingly Erratic.
 New York, Nov. 13.--The movements at the stock exchange to-day were ex- ceedingly cratic. The great disturb ing factor was the report of impending trouble between this country and Spain over the Cuban question. The street was flooded with rumors concerning this matter, and while nothing definite developed up to the close of the ex- change, they tended to keep specula- tion unsettled.
 After fractional advances at the open ing prices suddenly gave way E to 8 per cent, the latter in Sugar, which. under a heavy pressure to sell, said to be for inside account, dropped from 122 to l19
 The grangers, Chicago Gas. Northern Pacific. General Electric and Western Union were also notfceably weak. Among the specialties American Spirits preferred, which had advanced a point.

The Fact That Doctnrs

frequently advise change of air and climate to those suffering from catarrh is prof that catarrh is a local and cli- matic disease. Therefore. unless you can leave home and business, you should use Ely's Cream Balm. Applied direct ly to the seat of the disease, it effects instant relief and a satisfactory cure after short continuance. No mercury nor injurious drug is contained in the Balm.

EASY TO GET FAT.
If Your Drink is Right.

Skinny people generally are so be- cause of their inability to digest the food which is passed from the stomach into the bowels. The bowel digestion is weakened Starches of the grains make fat tissue, but if the bowel diges- tion is weakened by coffee, tobacco, whisl1ey, etc, the person remains skin- ny. Leave off the weakening habits and use in place of coffee Postum Ger cal, the health coffee. It is made by the Postum Cereal Co, linn, Battle Creek, Mich, entirely of grains, and is fattening. It looks like the finest Mo- cha coffee. Persons who care to lay aside their hurtful habits and eat plain. well cooked food and some fruit, and drink Postum, will feel a great i'm provement in a weeks time. Nature is a powerful builder if left free to work without drugs and poisons.
 It should not be forgotten that 80 per cent of the body is liquid; therefore a healthful liquid Is of the greatest ne- cessity.
