DANGER IN SODA.
Serious Results Sometimes Follow It's Ex
cessive Use.

Serious Results Sometimes Follow Its Ex-
cessive Use.
Common soda is all right in its
place and indispensable in the kitchen
and for cooking and washing purposes,
but it was never intended for med
iclne, and people who use it as such
Will some day regret it.
We refer to the common use of soda
to relieve heartburn or sour stomach,
habit which thousands of people prac-
lice almost daily, and one which is
fraught with danger; moreover the
soda only gives temporary relief and
IN the end the stomach trouble gets
worse and worse.
The soda acts as a mechanical irri-
tant to the walls of the stomach and
bowels and cases are on record where
1t accumulated in the intestines, caus-
Ing death by Inflammation or peritoh-
tits.
DIR. Harlandson recommends as the
safest and surest cure for sour stom-
ach (acid dyspepsia) an excellent pre-
paratlon sold by druggists under the
name Of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets.
THESE tablets are large 20-grain lozen-
ges, very pleasant to taste and contain
the natural acids, peptones and diges-
tive elements essential to good diges-
ton, and when taken after meals they
digest the food perfectly and promptly
before it has time to ferment, sour and
poison the blood and nervous SYSTEM.
DR.. Wuerth states that he invariably
uses St1lart's Dyspepsia Tablets in all
cases Of stomach arrangements and
hnds them certain cure not only for
sour stomach, but by promptly digest
ing the food they create a healthy ap-
petite, increase flesh and strengthen the
action Of the heart and liver. They
are not cathartic, but intended only
for stomach diseases and weakness and
will be found reliable in any stomach
trouble except cancer of the stomach.
All druggists sell Stuarts Dyspepsia
Tablets at so cents per Package.

stomach weakness and their cure mail

Bicycles and Electric Railways RESPONSE
BILE for Small Demand and Low Prices.
Los Angeles, Cal, October 5.--Hag-
gin & Lewis have virtually abandoned
the raising of driving horses for mar
ket. H. A. Jastrow, who has charge
of the firms great ranch, which has just
sold 1900 fine horses and ponies in this
city, says: 1--WE have not been breed
ing driving horses to any extent for
three years past. The demand for this
class of horses has gradually diminish
ed and the prices have consequently
fallen. This state of affairs is to be
attributed, in my opinion, to the COM
ing of the bicycle, and to the great pro-
gress that has been made everywhere
in the State in the construction OF
electric railways"

Conditions in Switzerland-Impo fro
Eyif

Conditions in Switzerland Imports from
the United States
Washington, D. c., October 5.-Con-
sui Ridgeley, at Geneva, Switzerland,
in a report to the State Department,
says that during the first six months of
this year there was a considerable re-
vival of expectations to the United
States, especially in watches. In June
there was great anxiety to get the goods
in before the tariff bill went into effect.
At present, however, the manufacture
ers are not satisfied with the outlook,
exports to this country not only falling
off, but business in general is dull.
There have not been as many Ameri-
can visitors as usual, and those who
have been in Switzerland have made
comparatively small and insignificant
purchases.
There has been very large increase
in the number of bicycles imported
from the United States and some
American makes have taken a strong
hold there. An increase in the impor-
tation of United States canned meats
is also noted. One of the interesting
features of the report is that announc-
ing the importation of o,J00 boxes of
California dried fruit.

HAWAIIAN ANNEXATION
Looked Upon by Senator Lodge as Practi-
cally Accomplished

Looked Upon by Senator Lodge as Practi-
cally Accomplished.
Boston, October ST look upon
the annexation of the Hawaiian
Islands as practically accomplished"
said Senator Lodge. ''The treaty will
be taken up at once when Congress
assemblies in December, and l think
there is an easy majority in the Sen
ate in favor of it's ratification. If it
should appear probable that an oppo-
sition is developing sufficient to defeat
ratification the remedy will be very
simple. There is a joint resolution
of annexation of the islands on the
calendar which does not require a
two-thirds majority, as is the case in
the vote for ratification of a treaty.
A simple majority in both houses
will accomplish the same result, and
that majority we have easily. If it
appears probable that ratification may
fail we shall simply slip in the reso-
luton and act upon that in place of
the treaty. Before Christmas l GER
tainly expect that Hawaii will be
American territory"
