DR. WURTH'S OPINION
OF THE NEW DISCOVERY IN MED
ICINE.
A Remarkably Successful Remedy for
Dyspepsia, Indigestion and StOm-
ach Troubles.

DR.. Wurth in commenting on recent
discoveries in medicine said: There is
none which is certain to be SO valuable
and far reaching in benefit as Stuart's
Dyspepsia tablets. the new stomach rem
edy; 1 cay far reaching, because
people little realize how important
sound stomach and vigorous digestion is
to every man, woman and child.
Indigestion is the starting point of
consumption, heart disease, Bright's
disease, diabetes, nervous prostration,
liver trou bles; why is this so? Simply
because every nerve, muscle and tissue
in our bodies is created and nourished
from the food we eat. If that food is, by
reason of a weak stomach, coLl PEELED to
lie for hours, sour, fermenting mass of
half dige sted food, it poisons the blood
and nervous system, creates gas which
distends the stomach and bowels, caus-
Ing pressure on the heart, lungs and
other organs, and seriously impeding
their action.
He says further, the point to direct at
tention is not the nerves, nor heart, nor
AOhSCs hOl OuG lllS
first cause of all the mischief.
The remedy to use for indigestion and
weak stomachs is not some cathartic,
but remedy which will digest the food,
increase the flow of gastric juice, absorb
the gases, and Stuart's DyspepsiaTablets
will accomplish exactly this result in
any case of stomach trouble, because
these tablets are com posed of the diges-
tive acids, aseptic pepsin, Golden Seal
and bismuth, pleasant to taste, and not
being a patent medicine, can be used by
anyone with perfect safety. I believe
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets will cure any
form of Indigestion and stomach trouble
except cancer of the stomach.
Full size packages of Stuart's Dyspep-
sia Tablets are sold by druggists at so
cents or by mail from F. A. Stuart Co.,
Marshall, Mich. A book on stomach
diseases together with thousands of tes-
tImoEials will be sent by addressing
above, or call on your druggist for them,

Cured this morning. Three heavy

Two exploded, but one was Glow. The

terrific force, seriously injnring five men,
two of whom are not expected to live.
One man was completely buried under

WASHINGTON, Dec. 21.-The change of
time to take place January 1st by East
ern lines in shortening the mail-train
service from Washington, New York,
Boston and all points east to Chicago
and st. Paul, will on the same date, be

way, that company having decided to
put on a limited train on that date, leav-
ing st. Paul at a. m, Immediately
upon the arrival of the fast mail and
limited trains from Chicago and the
East. This will shorten the train service
to Montana and all points west by 12
hours, making the delivery of the mails
possible at Helena and Butte the second
night from Chicago, arriving at Seattle
and coast cities the third night, thus
making continuous service to the Puget
sound and Portland for both passengers
and the United States mails. Its second
coast train will leave St. Paul at p. M
daily, thus giving double train service
from st. Paul and Chicago to Montana
and all Western points.

TWO MORE LINES
ARE NOW COMING
Strong Indications that the Chicago,
Burlington G Quincy and the c. R.
l. & P. are Figuring on Reaching
This Coast and That the Former
Will Make Portland Its Terminus.

CHICAGo, Dec. 22.-The Chronicle has
the following:
There are strong indications that the
Chicago, Burlington & Quincy and the
Chicago, Rock Island & Pacific roads
are figuring on extending their lines to
the coast. The absorption of the Ha-
waiian and Philippine islands by this
country, it is expected by the owners
of these roads, will open up an immense
transcontinental rail business, both east
and west-bound.
The recent deal by which tn e SantaFe
will have it's own line into San Francisco
in the spring has awawened the officials
of the competing Observation-Disclosures
roads.
An officer of one of the western roads
who has just come from the coast, and
who takes keen interest in railroad af-
fairs out there, says:
81 would not be surprised to wake up
some morning and find the transconti-
mental situation further complicated by
the announcement that the Burlington
was to be extended to the Pacific ocean.
The Burlington is a great dea. near
er the coast than most people i'm
agine, and 1 understand that this road
has be en- surveying through Idaho all
eummer-one line through Nez Perces
pass and another through Lolo pass. 1
understand also that two or three inde-
pendent lines that are now being built
in Western Idaho and Northeastern
Oregon are intended eventually to form
part of the proposed western extention
of the Burlington.
Another point of interest in this con-
nection is the fact that the Burlington
is large holder of valuable terminal
and dock property at Gray's harbor
which would be of great value to the
company should they enter the Oriental
trade. Such an extension would form
short route from Tacoma to New Or
leans.''
Denver is now the Western terminus
of the Rock Island. and Billings, Mont,
is the end of the Burlington's tracks. 1t

MUSTER OUT
OF VOLUNTEERS
Government Decided Yesterday to Re-

Soon as Possible.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 22.-The war de-

for the muster out of $4,000 volunteers,
which was decided on at the cabinet
meeting yesterday, but it is understood
that work will be pretty well mapped out
by the first of the year.
The completion of the muster out will
depend on whether the department
adopts the plan of three months fur
Tough or immediate discharge, with two
months extra pay, as suggested by Con-
gressman Hull.
1t has been practically decided to
muster out all the volunteers in the
Philippines as fast as they can be re-
placed with regulars, so as not to hamper
the military administration of the
island. Following the discharges of the
regiments of the Philippine stations, 1t
is understood the volunteer troops in
the West Indies will be mustered out.
