SIMPLICITY ITSELF.
A SIMPLE. HARMLESS. REMEDY.

Yet it Cures the Worst Cases of Dys-
PePsia and Indigestion.
DIR. Jennison. who has made a life
study OF stomach troubles, says: All
forms OF indigestion really amount
to the same thing. that Is, failure to
completely digest the food eaten; no
matter whether the trouble is acid
dyspepsia or sour stomach, belchnp
OF wind. nervous dyspepsia or loss of
flesh and appetite;a person will not
have any of them if the stomach can
be induced by any natural. harmless
war to thoroughly digest what is
eaten, and this. can be done by sim
pie remedy which 1 have tested in
hundreds of aggravated cases with
complete success. The remedy is a
combination of fruit and vegetable
essences, pure asceptic pepsin and
golden seal put up in the form of
pleasant tasting tablets and sold by
druggists under the name of Stuart's
Dyspepsia Tablets. One or two of
these tablets should be taken after
meals and allowed to dissolve in the
mouth and mingling with the food in
the stomach, digests it completely
before it has time to ferment, decay
and sour.
On actual experiment one grain of
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets will di-
gest three thousand grains of meat,
eggs and similar wholesome foods.
1t is safe to say if this wholesome
remedy was better known by people
generally, it would be a national
blessing, as we are nation of dys.
peptics and nine-tenths of all dis.
eases owe their origin to imperfect
digestion and nutrition.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are not
secret patent medicine, but fifty
cent package will do more real good
for weak stomach than fifty dollars
worth of patent medicines and per-
son has the satisfaction Of knowing
just what he is putting into his stom-
ach, which he does not know. when
widely advertised patent medicines
are used.
All druggists sell Stuart's Dyspep-
STA Tablets, full sized packages.

...- Lesson.

Lesson.
This is prosperity. Every corpor-
alton paper in the country is shouting
prosperity and claiming that it is
here. Stocks aud bonds are up.
Wheat is a dollar bushel. This
certainly is prosperity.
Now that prosperity is here, stand
off and look at it. This is just the
kind OF prosperity that the contribu-
tors to the Republican campaign
corruption fund paid for, and they
are getting their money back with
interest. AS matter of fact, there
are some signs that times are not
quite so hard for common people this
winter as those of year ago. There
are few more men at work. True,
wages have been reduced, and mil
lions are yet unemploy ed, but the
total wage fund has probably slightly
increased. We are enjoying a boom.
In short time orators will be talk
ing about the good times of $685."
Millions fondly believed that apros-
perity" would bring to. them increas-
ed wages and added comforts of life.
They expected demand for labor in
excess of its supply. Such a time
will never come unler the present
industrial system. These are the
best times the century will witness.
They will be followed by another
panic and another period of depres-
sion. This is dismal prediction,
but 1t is MS sure of fulfilment as the,
hazard that day will follow night

is no market for their output. When
the bubble of speculation is pricked,

The WIshart Gold Saver Success.
Fridays Carson News says. An
other lot Of La Grand Ora gravel was
run through the Wlshart gold saving
machine this. afternoon with the sue
cess Of yesterday.
The water motor was taken off and
the machine run by hand to show
that very little power is required. In
fact one horse can easily furnish
power TO run twelve machines, and
lun them to full capacity.
This afternoon gravel was fed into
the machine at the rate of over five
tons per hour, which is more than is
claimed, but certainly not above the
capacity Of the machine.
The tailings we're repeatedly pan.
ned out and never a color was OBJ
tanned, proving that all the gold that
went into the machine remained
there.
1t is believed that this is the only
machine that does the work, and it
probably means great deal for Car
son, as it is estimated that fully 100
Of these machines will be running in
this vicinity inside Of one year.
The handsome part of the whole
proposition is that it saves all the
gold and 80 all the product of mine
is pot into circulation for wages, ETC.,
there being no waste. Again ground
going fifty cents per ton can be
worked proftably. It is said there
are miles along the Carson river that
can be thus worked but where the
gold is too fine TO be saved in the or
binary sluice.

WEALTHY POSSESSIONS.

Capt. John w. Merritt, who has
been trading with the Philippine
Islands for more than forty years and
is well acquainted with their re-
sources and capabilities, says to the
New YORK Sun in an interview, that
eff the United States will hold on to
Manila, or take possession of the en-
tire Philippine group they will confer
unbounded benefit upon the Ameri-
can merchants engaged in the Pacific
trade, and add considerable to the
revenues of our country. Besides,
the cost of the war could
soon be repaid into our treasury
from the tax on imports and exports
imposed at Manila alone. l don't
pretend to discuss the vast advantage
that port offers as coaling station
and general governmental depot in
the far East, which is subject fol
the consideration of statesmen, but ]
argue from the point and experience
of an old trader with an eye to bust
ness. There is no calculating the
wealth of the islands. Most of the
products brought to this country are
coffee, indigo, sugar cane, tobacco Ia
government monopoly, spices, pepper,
pima linen made from the pine
apple fiber, hats and cordage. But
locked up in the many mountains of
the islands are millions of tons of
iron, copper, coal and sulphur. AS for
the timber, there is nothing to equal
it's quality and quantity. The Spanish
have never been able to develop the
islands, and the Chinese had not suf-
ficent means to put their full produc-
tiveness to a test. There is some
gold to be found in the sands Of the
hundreds of rivers, but the Philip
pines are not exactly Klondike.
With American methods, improve
ments, and good Yankee business
1 venture to assert that the
islands could be made to yield ten
times as much as at present"
1t is testimony of this kind that is
great change in senti
ment in this country toward keeping
possession of these islands now they
have fallen into our hands.
