DISAPPEARANCE OF q. CONSUL
Absence of the Scandinavian Rep
resentntiye Causes Alarm.

New York, March 29.-Carl Woxen, con-
sui in this city for Sweden and Norway,
has been missing for week and mis-
friends are much alarmed over his disap
pearance. 1t is feared that his mind has
become unbalanced owing TO illEcss. Mr..
Woxen has been the Scandinavian con-
sui here for six years. The work of the
consulate is especially arduous and for
some time Mr.. Woxen's friends have no
ticed that his health was becoming i'm.
paired. He was seen on the Boulevard
last Wednesday morning, but that is the
last trace his friends have of him.
]. A. W. Grip, the Swedish minister in
Washington, came to New York Saturday
and began an investigation of Mr. WoX-
ems accounts.
Charles Stroem, who said he came from
Texas two weeks ago intending 10 GO to
Sweden, states that he gave Mr.. Woxen
a draft of 5000 TO cash and Woxen, he al
leges, has not returned him the money.
Nothing in the way of shortage has
been found as yet Both Minister Grip,
who is still here, and Mr.. Raven are salts
fed that Woxen's disappearance Is due to
a slight alteration of the mind.

THE PROBLEM SOLVED.
THE MEM MEDICAL DISCOVERY
TESTED.
Results OF the Test in Various
Forms of Dyspepsia.

Chronic indigestion or dyspepsia, while
q very common trouble has for some
time been looked upon by able physi-
clans as a serious thing and that no
time should be lost IN treating it properly
al the start, because recent researches
have shown that the most serious. fatal
and incurable diseases have their origin
jn simple dyspepsia or indigestion.
Diabetes is simply one form Of indi-
gestion, the sugar and starchy food not
being assimilated by the digestive or
gans. In BrighTs disease the aIbumen
IS not properly assimilated.
While consumption and dyspepsia are
twin diseases, and il is beyond question
that dyspepsia makes a fertile soil for
the seeds OF consumption.
But the trouble has been TO find a
remedy that could be depended upon to
cure dyspepsia. as IL Is VIGOROUSLY obsti-
nate and difficult to cure.
This has been the question which has
puzzled physicians and dyspeptics alike.
until the question was solved three years
ago by the appearance Of a new dyspep-
STA cure IN the medical world known as
Stuart Dyspepsia Tablets, which it was
claimed was a certain. reliable cure
for every form Of stomach trouble.
Physicians, however, would not accent
such statements without first giving the
new remedy many tests and carefully OBJ
serving results
For three years the remedy has been
thoroughly tested IN every section OF the
country and with surprising and salts
factory results.

estly claimed 10 be a specific, a radical
