NEW MEDICAL DISCOVERY.
A Positive Cure for Dyspepsia.

Positive Cure Tor dyspepsia.
This may read as though we were put
ting it a little strong because it is gen.
orally thought by the majority of people
that Dyspepsia in it's chronic form is in
durable, or practically so. But we have
long since shown that Dyspepsia is cur
able, nor is it such difficult matter as it
appears.
The trouble with Dyspeptics is that
they are continually dieting, starving
themselves, or going to opposite extremes
or else deluging the already over burdened
stomach with 'bitters," ''after dinner
pills, " etc which invariably increase the
difficulty even if in some cases they do give
a slight temporary relief Such treatment
of the stomach simply make matters.worse.
What the stomach wants is rest. Now
how can the stomach become rested, re-
cuperated and at the same time the body
nourished and sustained.
This is the great secret and this is also
the secret of the uniform success Of
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets. This is a
comparatively new remedy, but its sue
cess and popularity leaves no doubt as to
its merits.
The tablets will digest the food any
way, regardless of condition of stomach
The sufferer from Dyspepsia according
to directions is to eat an abundance of

out any marked changes. Biscuit shares,
around which so much interest has GEN.
tered lately, were traded in at lower
levels. The stock opened at 611ac, sold
up to 62c. and closed at 61Ac. 1t is the
same situation with reference to bust

desire of the United States that the war

this end is set forth in the note which
minister Woodford read to the Duke Of

THE statistics Monday were decidedly
against the wheat price, but there was
influential buying through three or four
commission concerns, apparently for one
interest. and this counted more than
the whole array of bear figures. There
was lower start, but sharp rally of al
most &c, and closing about half way be-
tween the extremes. December opened
from $3.50 to 9124c. sold between 915sc
and $3.50 and closed at 97Bc. The
course of the September was erratic. &c
over December early, but 1sc under at
the wind-up. A slow cash demand here
might have had something to do with
the loes of the early premium.

THE publication by the British gov
eminent of the blue book on the fur
seal conference has greatly annoyed
our State Department because, while
Mr.. Chamberlain dispatch in answer to
Mr.. Sherman's celebrated dispatch of
May 10 is given publicity, the depart
ment up to this time has net received
a copy of this dispatch, and does not
seem to know of its existence except
through the newspapers. Inasmuch as
the British press has so freely criticised
what it has been pleased to call shirt
sleeve diplomacy" and has read the
State Department many homily on the
necessity of observing diplomatic pro-
prieties, the department thinks it curl
GUS, to say the least, that dispatch
should be made public before it has
been received by the government to
which it lie addressed.

Bur there is no suggestion of an ulti.
matum in the correspondence. Sta g
Department officials say it is absurd to
suppose the President of the United
States would go at Spain in such undip-
lomatic fashion as to issue an ultimatum
before politely sounding the Madrid
government as to it's intentions. In
Europe there is prevalent idea that
the United States is such an amateur in
the art of diplomacy that any buster
ing, laundering sort of procedure may
be looked for from Washington. The
history of this Spanish episode. when it
is finally written, will show that the
United States government is quite as
familiar with the amenities of inter.
national intercourse as any other gov.
eminent.

Truly Wonderful.

A prayer which was none the less the
sincere expression of fervent gratitude
from the fact of its amusing and very
definite and needless illusions to in
finite power was made by New Hamp-
shire delegate at missionary conven-
ton some years ago. After offering
thanks for the Lords provision of His
servants to labor with strength and ear
nestness of purpose in foreign lands,
giving up the ties of home and all other
Interests in their devotion to the cause,
he concluded his prayer thus: "And we
thank Thee, o Lord, for Thy wonderful
power over this world in which we live,
for although Thou hast made the earth
and caused it to revolve in strange
manner, and with great velocity. and;
although our missionaries are scattered
all over the globe, still, so marvelously
hast Thou balanced the centripetal and
centrifugal forces that as yet not a
single brother has been thrown from
the surface into unending space" -

When mother done the cuttin', why, she
done it as she ort;
And she never ust to ask me If I'd have 1t

SShe slipped my head into crock, and then
she grabbed her shears
And cut my hair off even on, level with

that you want me to go up that mast
in this storm, with the ship going this
way, and see what's wrong with that
foretop?"
''You heard what 1 said," said the
