Did you ever stop to think what indiges-
tiov really means? 1t means simply that
your stomach is tired. Ii our legs are
tired, we ride. The horse and the steam
engine do the work. Why not give your
stomach a ride: that Is, let something else
do its work. Foods can be digested out
side OF the body. All plants contain d.
geStive principles which viii do this. The
Shaker Digestive Cordial contains diges-
tive principles and is a preparation design
ed to rest the stomach. The Shakers them
selves have such unbounded confidence in
it that they have placed 10 cent sample
bottles on the market, and it is said that
even So small quantity proves beneficial
in vast majority of cases. All druggists
keep it

A BELFAST WOMAN

Writes an Open Letter to Women.
Mary F. Bartholomew, ST. Francis
vile, H., writes: about twelve years
ago 1 was afflicted with female trouble
l doctored with several skillful doctors,
but kept getting worse, until l became
belfast. L remained in this condition
almost two years, having had four ply
siclanS tending me, but got no better.
In Dr. Hartmans female book l found
a case just like mine, and concluded TO
write to Dr. Hartman for advice. | am
never sorry did so, for owe my life
to DR.. Hartman and Pe-ru-na. My
frie nds and neighbors never expected
to see me well again; but thank God
and DR.. Hartman for my recovery. I
am able to be up and assist with my
household duties. 1 did not improve
as rapidly as some I have read testi-
mOnials of, but my case was of such
long standing, and, as the doctors said,
very much complicated, L could not ex-
pect rapid recovery. l think my re-
coVery is a surprise to every one that
knew me- My appetite was so poor I
could not eat anything scarcely. But
now L can eat everything without pain.
My bowels are regular; I have no trou-
BILE with them. l have been the exam
pie of many a man and woman in bad
health to try Pe-ru-na for a cure. 1
could write great deal more. I can
not praise your medicines enough. I
think that if every one would try them
they would never regret it, but would
praise them to everybody as long as
they live"

book devoted to the ailments peculiar

OFFICIAL OPINION OF 1T
EXPRESSED BY GEN. DUFFIELD. or
THE COAST AND GEODETIC
SURVEY. - 3
TWO LINES ARE NOT FAR APART.
American and Canadian Surveys Do
Not Vary Greatly I'm Their
Results.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 21.-In speak
ing of the boundary line between Alas
ka and the British possessions today,
Gen. Duf1eld, of the coast and goedetic
survey, said:
Il do not believe that, when the mat
ter of the boundary line between the
two countries is definitely settled, there
will be any appreciate change from
what is down on the map at present
There certainly will not be, as far as
regards the KlOndike region, which is
beyond all manner of dispute in the
British Northwest territory
Dawson City is 100 miles or more
east of the 141st meridian, which is
the boundary line. Mount ST. Elias
is near the intersection OF the ten
marine league line with the Hist me-
ridian. To be exact, the summit is
140 degrees and fifty-fve minutes, or
five minutes on the Canadian side.
which, in that latitude, represents two
and one half miles. But on the south
ern side it is only twenty-eight and
one half miles from the coast, which
brings 1t inside of the ten-league line,
or thirty-mile limit, and one and one
half miles on American soil.
AT Forty Mile Greek our survey
agrees with that of the Canadian sur
Vey under Ogilvie, within forty-hun-
dredths of second, which, in that
latitude, represents six and One-haIf
feet. The Canadian line takes the
six and one-half feet from us Cross
ing the Yukon river, the difference i'll
the two surveys is fourteen seconds,
which, in -that latitude, represents 800
feet. According to the line of Ogilvie.
the Canadian government surveyor. we
gain 300 feet on the British side.
I'VE are anxious to compare the two
lines at the Porcupine river, crossing
which is several miles further north
but the Canadian government has CIV
en- us no notice of where they have
fixed their line there. 1 do not suppose
that the difference will be worthy Of
note"
Gen Duffield added that, If there is
any dispute between the two countries
over the boundary line, it will be in
regard to the ten-league coast line In
the southern portion of Alaska, as that
is question which admits of consid-
cradle diversity of opinion.

FRIGHTFUL END.
Mrs. TOOIe Burned to Death by u
Brothers. CareIessness.

MISSOULA, Mont, Aug. 21-A ter
rible accident from burning happened
near Carlton, eighteen miles up the
Bitter Root valley, yesterday after
noon. The victim, Mrs Marion Tooie
was riding along the road in lumber
wagon with her brother, William Co.
niff., on the way to town. The bottom
Of the wagon box was covered with
dry hay which caught fire from a
match with which Coniff lit his pipe
Owing to heavy clouds of dust the
fire and smoke were not discovered
until the hay was a mass of flames
With clothes afire, Mrs. Toole jumped
from the wagon, Coniff remaining with
the team, but no sooner did
he see her in flames than he
let the team go and they ran
away. The frantic screams of the I'M
fortunate woman attracted the atten-
ton of section men working on the
railroad short distance away who
came to her assistance, and, with the
brother. tore the clothing from her
inch by inch.
AS soon as another rig could be Sc
cured, she was brought to the Missou-
la Sisters hospital. Two-thirds of the
surface of her body was burned, some
places crisp. She fingered until this
morning when she died.

Aug. 2, the United States minister
would take possession of the islands.
He was to receive definite instructions
on the steamer Nonowai. arriving at
Honolulu July 81, but evidently they
failed to come. as the raising of the
flag has not been talked of. The Ha-
waiian government has declined to
grant a permanent register under the
Hawaiian flag for the Pacific mail
steamship China. which was granted
a temporary registry by the Hawaiian
consul at London. The China is a
British-built vessel, and the Hawaiian
government claims that the sale of
the ship to Col. Macfarlane, a Ha-
Waiian subject, is not a bona fide one.

English Authority Thinks the Pole

perhaps the best authority on explora-
ton in the world so that some i'm
portance will naturally attach to an
interview with him as to the fate of
Andree and his balloon. Kettle char
acterized as all rot" the statement
that Andree's balloon has been seen in
the White sea, because it would not
have been likely to take that direc-
ton. AS to the report of Andree's
pigeons having been found, it was i'm
possible to say whether or not they
were Andree's. The Germans are fly
ing pigeons from the English coast to
their own country, and the pigeons
found might have been German birds.
Andree had said before he started
that he might not be heard from for
two years. He was personally &C
quainted with Andree, and with Man
son. They were two men very much
alike. Andree was a fine, intelligent
fellow, of magnificent physique. He
was perfectly well aware of what he
was doing when he undertook the trip
to the North pole, and if pluck, intell-
gence and physique could help a man
through such an undertaking, he
would yet be heard from. 1t might be

the northern coast of Alaska, in which
case it would take considerable time
for him to reach a telegraph station.
Then it might descend in Siberia or
Greenland, and some time must elapse
in any case before he would be heard
from. Mr.. Kettle would not venture
an opinion as to what effect very cold
atmosphere, such as would be en-
countered in the polar regions would
have on Andree'S balloon He appears
to be of the opinion that Andree has
been successful in crossing the North
pole, and to believe that he will be
heard from soon.
